Does anyone think they'll ever do a follow up to Return of the Jedi?

--------------------
President Josiah Bartlet: Congratulations. So, who is da man on this one?

Communications Director Toby Ziegler: I think this time we're all collectively da man, sir.

Deputy Communications Director Sam Seaborn: I accidentally slept with a call girl.

Communications Director Toby Ziegler: Accidentally? Did you trip over something?

Lucas has no intention of doing it, and I don't think he'd allow any one else to touch the series.

Besides, why would anyone want to? Star Wars is the story of the fall and redemption of Anakin Skywalker. He be dead.

Right. Sure it is.

By the time Lucas has finished with the prequels, ILM's secret project will be ready to go, and Lucas will be able to take over the world!

And the secret project will be:

Ultra Special editions of the original trilogy.

Then Special editions of episodes 1-3.

Then special DVD releases of the Ultra Special Editions of 4-6.

Then Ultra Special Editions of episodes 1-3.

Then DVD versions of the Ultra Special Editions of episodes 1-3.

Then a big DVD box set, that contains the Ultra Special Editions of episodes 1-6, but with ONE extra scene inserted somewhere.

Then we repeat, adding "Super" inbetween Ultra and Special.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Yep. That's just about the size of it, Psy.

You're forgetting the "Duper", which comes after the "Super."

Besides, how the fuck would they 'follow it up' anyway? Mark Hamil is fat as the Pillsbury doughboy, Carrie Fisher has mental problems, Harrison Ford has aged about as gracefully as Sean Connery, and Alec Guiness is dead.

Yeah, I think we can squeeze another trilogy outta that...

I'm curious as to the sort of aethetic point of view that could consider this a bad thing.

Okay, I take it back. I really do like Sean Connery and Harrison Ford. My point is that Ford is lookin' pretty grey and haggard these days. Sorry for the inaccurate comparrison. Guess I shouldn't screw with James Bond...

Sean Connery has aged pretty gracefully. Things went a bit awry in middle age, but we're past that now. Ford, on the other hand, did pretty well throughout middle age, yet now, at the age of nearly 60, is starting to look pretty haggard. He seems to think having a spiky haircut will help him look younger. He's wrong.

I mean, Ford is the same age as my Dad yet everyone thinks my Dad is looking a lot better. . .

You could do it with their (Luke,Han,Leia and Lando's) kids. Alec was already dead in the film so that won't be a problem. Or you could just get new people.

"Carrie Fisher has mental problems"

Although appearing on the Graham Norton show might count against her on this, how exactly has she got mental problems? (Now.)

Wasn't there a story some time ago about her being hauled off to the looney bin or some-such? If I'm wrong then I'm wrong, but you don't really have to rip apart my statement like this. I think it's pretty obvious to all of us that there's no f-ing way the classic Star Wars actors are going to do a follow-up, and that's really all I was trying to say. Sorry for being slanderous.

I don't think Carrie Fisher went gaga, but I remember that Margot Kidder did for a while. o_0
