[Shaun]

[Marcus.]

[InOne]

They've done a few animated things already though haven't they? Wasn't there that whole Clone Wars series

Media giant Disney has purchased movie and TV production house Lucasfilm for $4.05B in cash and stock. Star Wars Episode 7 is targeted for release in 2015, with more feature films expected to continue the Star Wars saga. Lucasfilm founder George Lucas will act as a creative consultant for the next film.

Sounds like it might be a proper new film according to this

[Maia]

Not sure whether this is good news or bad news. I do love Star Wars though

[King Gizzard]

I suppose it will probably primarily be focused on Palpatine being reborn? and Leia/Hans/Lukes kids? The possibilities are endless

[King Gizzard]

I don't want it to turn into a running Saga like James Bond 1-2 films maximum

[Maia]

They can try and they can try but they'll never have another Darth Vader

[King Gizzard]

One of my least favourite Characters

[Novo]

Hopefully it's about the Old Republic and is set thousands of years before the events of the previous six

[King Gizzard]

Yeah thinking about it they can't really lead straight on from the ROTJ because they won't have Ford/Hammill/Fisher, unless they be dicks and completely re cast them

So it will have to be the Old Republic or the next Skywalker/Solo generation

A film based on KOTOR would be amazing

The way he moves/talks is just so offputting and not evil at all

Epitimized by the ''NOOOOOOOOO'' at the end of Revenge of the Sith

Yes please.

[Marc]

oh..

[King Gizzard]

Weird how KOTOR is set ages before but everythings basically the same

[MTVN]

Agree about Vader, bit lame how he can only trudge really slowly around everywhere

[Novo]

Think if they made the film of KOTOR they would obviously have to go with the ending of Bastila going to the darkside and joining Malak i forgot what the other ending was now i think you could join Bastila and kill everyone of your companions or something

The Obi Wan vs Darth Vader in A New Hope is just cringeworthy

[Novo]

Found it funny how there was white wookies in that game as well

Think some of them stay with you after you join her but some refuse, can remember if you were really being a bastard you can force the wookie to kill Mission to stop her running off

What on earth is wrong with you both how can you not love him, he is very clearly one of the greatest and most iconic sci-fi characters of all time
