How the fvck could they make a trilogy out of him sitting on Tatooine all day? I could see them doing a single movie with, like, Darth Maul, but a trilogy seems odd, in my opinion. He isn't really supposed to be doing much at that time.

Still excited, though. Ewan rocks.

DARTH POWER
If they want to bring Darth Maul into it, they can't really do that justice in a single movie IMO.

Because the majority of the general audience don't know Maul's alive, so they'll need to spend a lot of story time expanding on that Imho.

Anyway it's just a rumour. But I'd be down for it mainly for the Kenobi/Maul rivalry which has become pretty epic. But if the whole draw was just Obi-Wan... Well we've kind of already had that with the Prequels, so I wouldn't see the point personally.

Sounds like shit. I like Obi-Wan, but a trilogy about him sitting around on Tatooine?

**** no.

I also find this to be a terrible idea. Firstly, we have seen enough of Obi. One movie ok but three centered around him that sounds awful. Secondly, i never cared for Obi as a character. Thirdly, why not focus on a younger Yoda in a different era with completely new and interesting characters.

An Ahsoka trilogy > Obi-Wan trilogy.

WHO'S WITH ME?! Happy Dance

His story is done. Make a Revan trilogy.

Yep. They are better off exploring a new era. I'd say go back before even Yoda was born when the Sith were still around in large numbers.

I'd rather not. KotOR was an excellent but I want a new story not a rehash of a game.

|King Joker|
I doubt they'd go back in time so far that it's irrelevant to the core stuff. (Ep. 1 - Ep. 7/8/9).

DARTH POWER
There are rumors of a Yoda anthology film as well.

All rumors for now. But don't be surprised if Disney capitalises on the most popular characters.

|King Joker|
I don't want a Yoda movie. He should remain a mysterious character, in my opinion.

Ahsoka dealing with post-Order 66 and her becoming 'Fulcrum' would be so interesting, honestly. They're missing out on a great story if they pass something like that up.

Rumor has it that Cumberpatch is playing Obi-wan.

I'm not angry, Far from it.

A Dooku film, where he trains a young Quigon

DARTH POWER
Or a Dooku film where he's Yoda's star pupil.

ares834
God no. And thankfully, I doubt they will make any movies around that era.

A Jar Jar trilogy. Where he must travel to Endor to unravel a mystery that will shake up the whole SW universe.

Jar Jar...Jar Jar.. Jar Jar lol

Ewan McGregor would be a perfect lead for Obi Wan Kenobi trilogy. Too bad the prequels sucked balls and Disney is understandably reluctant to remind ppl of that fact.

I want Darth Maul back to the big screen.

Well then Disney is dumb. The Prequels were very popular. Completely stay away from them because there's some loud haters out there, and they're missing out on a lot of money.

Kyle Katarn deserves a movie series.

Flyattractor
I wouldn't mind seeing some Star Wars stuff that DOSEN'T have to focus only on the Force Characters.

ares834
They've said that Star War: Rogue One won't.

Revenge of the Sith was good enough to make us forget about all the bad parts from E I and E II, imho.

i'm all for a new obiwan trology. they should throw in anakin and yoda and call it "episode I, II, & III"

Obi Wan was on Tatooine for nearly 2 decades before leaving with Luke. 2 decades is a LONG time, he could of had a variety of adventures, even if he never left Tatooine. Plus, they can branch away from that and say that from time to time maybe he did leave Tatooine, but only for good reasons. Like perhaps he heard about some jedi still alive in a nearby star system

Also please do not bring Darth Maul back. He died like an utter chump in the movie. Let the last memory of him at least be...from the Clone Wars cartoon. That version at least was a bit less shitty.

Darth Maul's fight in phantom menace is the highlight of that movie. He took on two Jedi at the same time, that's not chump like to me.

How dare you say he died like a chump. Like it or not he's an immensely popular Star Wars character and it would be stupid to ignore him for the big screen. The guy was a force in the phantom menace and only went down due to boasting.

Dooku died like a chump in rots.
