I kinda wish they weren't getting made. It seems dangerous to risk creating Star Wars fatigue before the final movie of the trilogy is released.
>>
>>64212907

I have no hopes after seeing TFA.

Never again will I pay to see one of these Disney memes on cinema.

I'll see them at home 'cause I'm a Star Wars fan and hope for the day an actual director and not a hack like JJ comes and makes a good movie.

Star Wars Anthology: Kenobi

McGregor as Obi Wan obviously.

An infant Luke Skywalker is saught after by the crime community after tatooine crime lords find out there is "more to the child than what appears at first glance". Jabba the Hutt, recognizing the name "Skywalker" from the clone wars sends out a ruthless bounty hunter (original character) to find and capture the young Jedi.
The now "Ben Kenobi" has to go on a quest across tatooine to find and return Skywalker to a distressed and guilty Uncle Owen (who blames Kenobi for allowing Luke to be captured in the first place out of neglegence).
Along the way Ben must learn to put the past behind him. He struggles with an identity crisis on account of recently changing his name and losing his padawan which he partially blames himself for.

The movie will have heavy references to The Clone Wars tv series. Callbacks to the Dutchess of Mandalore and possible cameos from Cad Bane and MAYBE Ahsoka Tano, who at this point is also in hiding.

Use picture related as reference of how Kenobi should look.

Also, keep it a single movie. An entire trilogy would be overkill.

>>64213381
I think this could deserve a movie of its own, the transition between how Kenobi transitioned between his very intrigued and discontent temperament in the prequels to his sagely and serene personality in Ben could make for a great story if done right

I hope these are all new original stories and not prequel nostalgia b8.

Oh wait.

I hope it's going to be a gritty war film with a very dark tone and a feeling of hopelessness, to really distance itself from the standard star wars movies

Ewan McGregor probably wouldn't do it after the experience of the prequels

He wouldn't even do the Clone Wars cartoon

Perhaps TFA could convince him things would be different: real sets and locations, competent writing, real collaboration between filmmakers (instead of "ok George, sure, whatever")

Plus he was still willing to do that small voice bit in TFA, so you never know...

He loved being in Star Wars.
He's actually in The Force Awakens (his voice at least). I think he'd be very eager to reprise his role

Are you fucking kidding me? This would be a terrible idea. Not only does it fuck with stuff before ANH, it heavily references the media outside the movies. Do you realize how many people you'll alienate with that?

I think it would be pretty easy to reference the EU without requiring knowlage on it. People who have never seen the clone wars would just assume Cad Bane is a new character.

How does it mess with pre-anh stuff?
>>
>>64213541

He was in the Force Awakens, and he's already said that he'd love to reprise Obi-Wan if given the chance.

He didn't do TCW because it would have been a pain in the ass to go from Scotland to America to record lines all the time and it was cheaper to just get someone else who sounded enough like him and Guinness.

>>64214049

This. The rebels are actually pretty savvy when it comes to their information gathering - for instance, Leia knew right away that they were allowed to escape the Death Star, and so the Rebels scrambled to analyze the data on R2D2; they knew they had little time.

If the Bothans got the information too easily, they'd have known it was a trap - even as it was, they were suspicious, but it was too juicy a target.

It would be great if we had a couple movies focused on the villain side of things. How rarely does that ever happen though, even in non capeshit movies everyone wants a hero.

Anyone else feel like the entire plot of Star Wars would completely fall apart if they introduced some means of interplanetary communication?

I sincerely hope its like Halo: Forward Unto Dawn. It's such a shame it will be the exact opposite.

Why must they do this?

They're planning on making a SW movie every year for at-least the next 5 years. Disney's owns Marvel too so they got this shit down to a science.

I'm not the anon that made that list but compare it to the OT. None of that quippy BS dialogue, well paced, well placed action scenes etc. TFA is rushed to the max with every scene having some sort of action in it with absolutely no room for an exposition or breathjng room. Its a staple of most capeshit films.

Not to mention their gonna be employing the exact same business strategy their using with Marvel on SW

The "anthology" term is marketing bullshit designed to obscure what is obvious: that this is a prequel.

>What are your hopes for the upcoming Star Wars Anthology movies?

I hope that they get promptly delivered, high-quality camrips
>>
>>64214715
I thought they were making full-length movies over 5 years and short films in between. I was apparently wrong, thanks for the info anyway, Anon even though you've slightly dampened my mood.
>>
>>64212907
My hopes are about the same as TFA - that is to say, they'll probably be better than the prequels and not as good as the OT.

I want to see Vader, but no other force-users and no lightsabers at all.
I want it to view somewhere between a heist movie and a suicide mission - like Ocean's Eleven meets Armageddon, but less shit than either of those movies.

I'd like to see an anthology movie entirely separate from any character we've been introduced to. No force powers, just a story set somewhere between the main Republic planets and the Outer Rim. Obviously I'm not saying I want to just watch a boring movie about nothing really happening, but I'd like to see how the Average Joe goes about within this universe. For excitement's sake, make him a police officer or something, I don't fucking know.

to be honest I think it's just a cash grab and I'm not willing to watch them in cinema even though I'm huge star wars fan, I'm interested only in new trilogy and when they go beyond that making one after another like marvel does I'll just end up passing on future films

So great. He is going crazy in the dune sea after washing up in mos eisley. Starts hearing voices of qui gon and force priestesses. Purges himself of the old Jedi ways. Communicates with Yoda through the force and argues about the fate of Luke and a new Jedi order be ideology. Frees slaves and bangs one. Fights off rancors. Learns about the living force and the cosmic force as Yoda did. Maybe saves 11 year old Luke once or twice. Do it Disney.
