Awesome fake poster

How would 'Dawn of the Republic' or 'Rise of the Sith' sound?

http://www.eatgeekplay.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/BCxobgWCEAE6HCk.jpg

I only know one thing for absolute certain about this movie. Simon Pegg will be in it.

And if there's something else likely to happen then Benedict Cumberbatch will probably play a sith or Thrawn if they go with that story.

Wouldn't make sense for Thrawn to be in a story with Jacen and Jaina.

That would be great. I wouldn't mind that at all

And JJA isn't really one for giving much of a **** about existing continuity. And George Lucas proved he's long past giving a **** by selling it off.

He's playing every other bad guy going. Khan, Smaug, Sauron. Plus he's got previous with JJ. Plus he's got the best bad guy voice going at the moment. So he may simply be a voice part.

Star Trek was a reboot, JJ Abrams didn't have to give a shit about continuity. The good news is, while JJ wasn't a Star Trek fan, he is a Star Wars fan. So I think this time around JJ and Disney really do care about movie continuity.

BTW, EU is not official canon

Incorrect. EU is considered part of the overall Star Wars universe, but has a lower level of priority when it comes into conflict with anything George Lucas personally directs, oversees, or green-lights. However, Disney has already apparently retained Leland Chee and, being the movie fanboy that he is, EU might get the chop.

I wonder how this will bode for TOR? In any case, this movie could either rejuvenate this series (which it direly needs; the retreading Clone Wars material is old and the EU is varying levels of good) or it could be a death-knell. The PT was, in retrospect, horrible.

I meant EU isn't officially canon to the movies

Which is kind of a misleading statement. The canon levels aren't strictly divided by movie/non-movie either; GL has sanctioned comics, novel tie-ins, radio plays, and so on which are considered G-canon over more remote C-canon, etc.

While most Star Wars fans are largely ignorant to the stratification and diversity found in EU, those that aren't find it jarring when it's written off without a word. There's stuff in EU that surpasses GL's work in the last 15 years, to be honest. But there's also stuff that is total rubbish, because of both the nature of many authors and creators and Lucas' ridiculously lax policing. So Disney's plan to take a chainsaw to it (rumored) is probably going to become a reality. I point out again that they retained Leland "Most fans only care about the movies" Chee who has probably wanted to do as much for the last ten years.

If this DOES happen, well, a fresh start isn't a bad idea. ST reboot is successful and doesn't have quite the same level of baggage as prime universal material would have, but George Lucas didn't handle the EU-situation the same as ST. And how that worked is anything not a tv-show/movie in ST is pretty much non-canon period, whereas GL has this ridiculous flexible caste system going on which makes things difficult to control and interpret. There's entire debates spiraling out of control about EU interpretation in this very forum, though it's cooled down considerably with the lack of new content and the upcoming movie in the works.

In my opinion, Disney could do EU justice by lifting the best ideas from it, and canning the worst. If they mulligan EU and then pretty much recreate the highlights and implement it into their original story, SW would benefit. If they just hack away EU entirely and go off in their own direction, they're relying entirely on their own novelty, and this could potentially blow up in their face.

I understand what you're saying, but a vast majority of the SW fan base is completely unaware of the EU. For that reason, JJ can come up with original content without being bound to the parameters of the EU - which I'm assuming he isn't very familiar with himself.

Personally, I do agree with the idea of recreating highlights of EU.

I suspect lots of lens flare, if nothing else.

Firefly's sort of right. Lucas always said the EU is a different Universe to his (movie) Universe. That's why Lucas himself would contradict the EU so much when making the Prequels and TCW. So when Lucas has always ignored it, we can't possibly expect Abrams to be completely faithful to it.

On the other hand Lucas would occasionally "borrow" elements from the EU, which is why the EU was considered canon, but a lower level of canon.

Going forward with Disney though, everything will be Equal in Canon. Books, comics everything will be equal canon to the movies. But of course before that happens a lot of the previous EU will be scrapped. Most the post ROTJ Eu stuff is surely doomed.

That point is correct, but Firefly was using very short, concise means to describe a very complex situation, and using the wrong terms. Which is why I felt the divine directive to correct him, using my own extensive experience into SW canon interpretation.

As you can attest to, Darth Power.

Side with me, or be destroyed. There is no hope for the opposition.

Too many star wars fanboys put far too much faith in George Lucas and his blessing over what went into EU canon and what didn't. Thinking that he scrutinised stories to fit preexisting canon etc. I'm willing to bet he asked 1 question every time someone from Lucas Arts etc came to him with something new for the EU to be published/released. 'Will it make me even more money?'

If the answer was yes then it'd go in and **** whether it fit into canon or not. That's why it's in such a complete shambles and why the best thing JJ and his team could do is ignore its continuity and only use it for interesting characters and situations.

I'm not sure I understand how your comment connects with the discussion. No one above claimed to have the position of which you speak.

But to clarify, I imagine GL's interest was superficial when it came to EU. He even admits as much, and we all know LFL was milking the cash cow, so you are right in that regard.

I'd absolutely kill to see DD Lewis as a Sith Lord and Cumberbatch as a Jedi Master. That would soooo kick ass.

It depended on the novel and story. In the beginning, there were tons of questions and directions given by GL regarding those things.

Later, though, after "they" had a better feel for what GL would allow or not allow, the questions subsided. If there was a sensitive story that came up, he would do the grilling and veto stuff, again.

Damn right he is.

i suspect anyway that JJ will be using some of the characters names from the novels but not their backstories

If Jennifer Lawrence and Fassbender weren't the most overused actors, they would be a perfect brother/sister. They already have that xmen chemistry too.

Cumberbatch is a great actor, I just don't see him being Han Solo's son.

No, I'm pretty it could work. Also, since Ford, Hamill and Fisher are in their 70s, it makes sense that their children are in their 30s.

No I'm more than pretty sure it wouldn't. They're both quality actors but casting them as twins would be totally stupid.

Lucas' involvement in the EU bbeing minimal is only sort of kind of half-true. C'Boath was originally supposed to be a mentally unstable clone of Obi-Wan Kenobi, but Lucas forced the author to scrap that and make the clone an original character. More recently, Anakin Solo was supposed to be the big bad post Vong War, but Lucas stepped in again and told the authors to kill him off, because of his name.

So, yeah.

Anyway, for this movie I don't want them to use any EU material, nor do I want it to be filled with big names. Gary Oldman gets a pass because you wont' even know he's Gary Oldman till the credits say so, but everyone else, nah.

I could be Gary Oldman. You never know.

I can see your point, that the resemblance between fassbender and Lawrence isn't perfect. I probably wouldn't cast them as the solo twins, but I still think it could work. Given that their both wonderful actors.

I would have just one Solo kid, personally. We're already cutting out Anakin. Why not have just one Solo kid and a Skywalker? Then you don't need to worry about age differences and matching features as much.

My original fantasy was to have Jennifer Lawrence as Jaina and be the protagonist, with her having a Korra-type personality (Initial Korra, not the progressively dumber one we've been given since every episode past the first), with Luke being the mentor.

How bout we not have any Lawrence, cos really, she's WAY over-hyped. See the second part of the Hunger Games; you'll see.

And LoLz at people thinking her and Fassbender could play twins.

Adam Driver officially cast as main villain!!!

Apparently he beat Michael Fassbender and Hugo Weaving for the role

Its not official yet...it says "final negotiations"

things can change.

well, "final negotiations" means he still beat out Fassbender and Hugo Weaving in the audition process.

speaking of Hugo, didn't this guy say he refused to play Red Skull again because he didn't want to be type cast in "genre movies"? It doesn't get more genre than Star Wars.

There must be a reason he's beaten the likes of Fassbender and Cumberbatch (Abrams boy from Star Trek Into Darkness). He must be playing an impressive villain in the auditions.

He was cowardly and hid behind others. Khan defected and attacked by himself. Simply courageous.

Fillion is only 43, and with a trainer can get back into shape pretty quick. It's people like you who screw up the casting process. Acting ability takes precedence over appearance.

To be fair, I did not know Fillion was only 43, he looks closer to 53, but years of drinking and a bad diet will do that.

We're already going to have an old fat Jedi with Luke returning, do we really need a looks old fat Sith? Think about it.

Judging off of firefly, Fillion can definitely play Han solo esque badass. With movie magic and a good trainer the appearance shouldn't detract.

I'm just busting your balls cos I know you man-crush the guy. He's a decent actor and I'd be happy if he was cast. Not a smuggler though, that would be silly for obvious reasons.
