God save us, I've only ever seen one and it appeared to have a lot of giant Teddy bears jumping around in trees. Unusually for someone of my age I never liked or wanted to watch Star Wars. When people were queuing round the block to see it at my local Forum I was settling down to watch Carry on Behind. Whistling nnocently

Star Wars is reet boring.

Won't happen. They'll end up doing them every two or three years.

Mind you, I've never been that enamoured of Star Wars, but with JJ Abrams involved they might be worth a look.

You realize they'd waterboard you at a Star Wars convention for this statement.

It'll be like the Marvel model. A 'proper' Star Wars film every few years (Like The Avengers), prob under JJ Abrams, with other films set in the Star Wars 'universe', focusing on side characters, dotted between. So a Bobba Fett movie. And Jar Jar Binks.

Marvel have done phenomenally well with their Phase One stuff, although there must come a point soon where these comic book movies start to feel a bit meh.

Good news for Warwick Davies if they revisited the Ewoks.

They're likely to be shit, unfortunately.

More than likely. I hear they're gonna do, a young, Han Solo, Yoda and Boba Fett, but it's all rumour.

Can't be worse than The Phantom Menace. It would be quite impressive if they were, though.

JJ Abrams did wonders with Star Trek so they might at least be worth a watch.

The Clone Wars cartoon had a couple of good seasons, I'd be interested in a Final Fantasy Spirits Within' (I think it was called that) type of animated movie.
