    I loved Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. I am really glad to hear they are finally making sequels to these films.

    The Star Wars universe is so large. So much to explore. The one story I would really like to see would be the origins of Darth Vader. I am surprised they haven't made this already. It seems a natural progression for the Universe.

    Harrison Ford won't answer questions about Star Wars from Jimmy Kimmel. When questions come from the audience, all hell breaks loose.

    They should do an entire film dedicated to those war heroes Jek Porkins and Biggs Darklighter. Couldn't be any worse than those films that are rumored to exist* that show some godawful floppy-eared character that never gets the death he deserves within 5 minutes or sooner of appearing onscreen.

    *fortunately we know better, that would be like (random example) making 2 or 3 films showing Spiderman as a whiny bitch.

    I think it could go well, although it will certainly feel different than the orginal trilogy. I used to sort-of like Star Wars back in the 80's and earlier 90's, back when it still was considered "ahead of its time" and "visionary" and before it was a ridiculously played-out parody of itself and attached at the hip to a series of cultural cliches revolving around fandoms comprised of fat virgin nerds. Honestly though, even sans those things, I just wouldn't hold any more interest in it, because they're so god damn wholesome. Where is the chaos, the traumatic violence, the avant-garde sexual stuff, and the abundant morally "flexible" (meaning unstable and borderline-depraved at times) characters that I so live for nowadays? Alas, I'm tainted and jaded, and there is no going back to what once was.

    Still though, the new ones have GOT to be better than Episode I, that was such a steaming shit-loaf. Episode II just sort of felt like it meandered around a lot without any real point, which is the fate of a lot of "middle-children" of trilogies. Here's hoping, I guess.

    Before you break @baraka_guru, it's battle where Luke blows up the Death Star in Episode 4. I'll just go ahead and suggest that maybe you need to do a bit more refreshing of your memory of the films before you try to play with the nerds.

    wait a minute is that the scene where he shoots a grenade down that chimney thing and the WHOLE death star blows up?

    Too bad. In that case you missed the scene where Captain Kirk was riding a horse down the beach with Nova in a fur bikini on the back and realizes that he was on Earth all along. That's because Will Smith punched him the jaw and said "Welcome to Earf".

    Not to nit-pick, but it was a proton torpedo, not a grenade, that was fired into the exhaust port.

    And it's Leia, not Leya, and she wore a brass bikini outfit, not gold. But that doesn't happen until two movies later in Return of the Jedi, so you'd have to wait quite a while with it switched off.

    Depending on the model, up to either a megaton or a gigaton difference.

    You do realize it's a slave outfit, right?

    Yet you switched off Episode IV? What happened...?
