well sure, But in this age of remakes and reboots, Would it really hurt to remake the beginning of this saga? I mean, the fans of the original 3 episodes would still have those movies, And the rest of the world could have 3 episodes to be as fans, proud of liking.

I mean, yeah they could make 7 8 and 9, But wouldn't it be better to also fix the beginning as well?

While I would agree on the surface, logic dictates that doing so would bring the inevitable remaking or rebooting of the Original Trilogy closer to reality. Something I dont ever want to see.

I don't think Disney's gonna waste time and money redoing the prequels. Especially when there's more $$$ to be had in doing the continuation and solo projects.

Grizzled badass.



Well you can't fault can them for saying that can you? It damn well better not be worse than AOTC.

Exactly. There's really no point.

The only time they'll revisit these is when they remaster them, years from now, in Ultra-Epic-Jigga-Vision 4D.

Couldn't disagree more. His cynical scowl is all he needs. Remember, this takes place 30 years post ROTJ.

Exactly.

No RoGaine in the used universe..

He looks good- he needs to dye his hair brown(with some grey) for Han...he'd look so much better and.... iconic

i think a few brown hairs among the grey would work, im interested in how they are going to handle his outfit though..

Hey, if they don't re-think the "no undies in space" frame of thought, Leia will have some weird looking slippers.

I concur. Ford is perfect the way he is.



I'd guess most fans couldn't be happier if the prequels were re-made.

but..... what if...... they were worse?

Ha, it's hard to imagine. I agree with the consensus that no-one will bother re-telling that story, but hypothetically I wouldn't be opposed to it.

Nope. keep moving forward. Make it into as MASSIVE a saga as the EU is by focusin on WHERE the story is. WHAT it is doing! not Looking away. to the past.
What has come before. carry it with you. Good, and Bad. Take it.. Learn from it. Watch it grow into something new.
Disney, Mind what you have Learned. Save you it can!

I don't think Episodes 7-9 could possibly be worse so I don't think remakes of I-III would be either. But if they were somehow worse - remarkable achievement, worthy of recognition in the archives of the Jedi Order.

They can't remake Ep1-3. If any improvement were to be done it would have to be a rewrite.

I would not hold it past Hollywood.

Well yeah, I thought that was implied though.

Remake (ie same story with different actors) =/= Rewrite (complete different story with different actors).

A remake is simply a new version of an old movie. It can be a shot by shot remake or only very loosely based. It can use the same actors or new ones.

They can "remake" the PT with Anthony Daniels and Ian McDiarmid playing their same characters but have everything else change.
