Neeson to have cameo?

IIt must be admitted that Neeson's comments on this have been contradictory. I am assuming nothing but my mind is open.

Star Wars Insider Interview Juli 1999

QUESTION: Unlike when Obi-Wan and Yoda died, your body didn't disappear after Darth Maul killed your character. Does that mean you could come back in Episode II or III?

LIAM: Oh, I think so. I hope so.

QUESTION: You do hope so? You'd like to come back for another one?

LIAM: Yeah.

from an insider interview
seems like he DO like episode 1... 🙂

that can't be right, darth vader/anakins body didnt disappear because you see him being burnt when luke is there at the end of episode 6

you see his armor like bens coat...nobody knows what it contains... *g

you don't wanna know the secrets of bens robes....
dirty ewoks and fat wookies is all i will say

no. you only saw the suit being burnt. apparently, anakin faded away off screen, which is why he is seen as a ghost at the end.

mmm...qui gonns body got burned. is this the reason why we dont see his personal appearance as a ghost and only hear his voice?

It is a general mystery, that (if he turns up as a ghost having been very definitely burned rather than vanished). We shall see if the film offers any explanation.

wonder why the jedi in the arena (ep.II) didnt disappear either?

This is rather disturbing. Meditate on this I will...

there is never blood in this movie either

No, that is no mystery at all. They aren't SUPPOSED to. The mystery is why some in the Original Trilogy DO disappear.

in the original trilogy the jedi all disappeared but in the new trilogy the don't

good job green....now leave

errrr who says jedi have to disappear to come back as ghosts?

I read in a reputable movie mag that Neeson disliked the episode 1 experiance so much he almost gave up acting!
I hardly think hes going to say or they would print "no i dont want to come back for another one" in Insider..nor would he say it sucked making Episode 1 to the official mag.
You read the insider and all the principal actors say how much they enjoyed making star wars BUT get them on a talk show talking up their latest non sw movie and they dont seem THAT enthusiastic at all...as if being under contract to do a further 2 movies after phantom was the bane of their lives.

The interviews i read are all positive.
And they are not all from the Insider...

there are 3...

"LN: No, let's not get serious. Right before that interview, I had just come off playing Oscar Wilde on the West End Stage and Broadway, and also had two films back to back. It was just...burnout. I kind of wanted out of it all, you know? I had a friend call me up last night from England. He said, 'Mate, I've just been watching the news. First item: Kosovo, the next item: Liam Neeson's leaving the business!' [He laughs] I said, well it's not true."

So its a fake, that he wanted to stop acting because of SW.

"PM: I was just going to say that very thing! Well, what got you hooked on this Star Wars? Like were you always a fan?

LN: I was. But before that I was a fan of George Lucas. I thought American Graffiti was a fabulous film. You know, if I had a little wish list booklet with directors' names, George would definitely be in there. So when I heard he was going to come out of so-called director's retirement to direct a Star Wars, I wanted to investigate it more. I mean, I love Star Wars, especially the first one. But it was to get a chance to work with George Lucas that prompted me. George is kind of the ultimate master Jedi. He's someone who knows cameras inside out, has knowledge of filmmaking and storytelling and is actually quite profound. But it's never forced, you just know it's there. It's within him. So I totally, absolutely trusted him. And yes, he is a poet in the way Spielberg is, and some of those other directors. The camera is like a extra appendage to their bodies, you know? They can just paint with it."

doesnt sound bad either...

He did once give an almost direct 'no' to an Episode III appearance; it is referenced in this forum somewhere but I cannot recall the link.

Ok but he aint sayin he liked the finished product.
most of the tv stuff ive seen in the uk with Ewan and N Portman give the impression they are disappointed with how the prequels turned out and how tedious they were to make at times.
