Star Wars: Episode VIII (2017)

[KconleyK]

I love the Title, however I have a feeling it is going to change right before the movie. They did the same with Return of the Jedi, to build up a ton of hype, then Lucas decide Revenge wasn't a good name with Jedi in it as it's against code. Plus they have already confirmed IX

And did the Jedi really get revenge on Episode 6?

That was Lucas, not Disney - there is 100% absolutely no way the title of that movie is changing between now and release.

[BotheLaneFan]

Lucas did that to save $787.

[smokew11]

not a big fan of the title

Why come tbag?

[Julia Roberts]

Luke was referred to as "the last Jedi" in the opening crawl of The Force Awakens.

Because of that, he also decided to reuse Revenge for Ep III

[Tiduwho]

I would hate and never forgive the writers if they turned Luke into a heel.

[scrock25]

Has anybody heard rumor one about a Star Wars/Star Trek cross over at some point?

[justink]

i hope it's not this predictable, but it seems like this will be Luke and Rey's "yoda and luke" movie.

[coldengrey12]

Seems all teed up for that, Justin.

I wonder if that island has a Dark Side Cave, too.

awesome... episode 7 is the rebel alliance fights the death star, now episode 8 is the master/padawan training movie.

wonder if episode 9 will see kylo cut off Rey's hand and tell her he's her brother?

this must be some serious trolling.

"hey, i have a great idea! let's show them the original trilogy just make it new again. THESE ASSHOLE FANS WILL BUY ANYTHING!"

edit: congrats on post #16k!

I hate that today's April Fools Day, but a lot of outlets are reporting on this, so who knows:

Disney And Lucasfilm Planning A Fourth Star Wars Trilogy After Episode IX

Fourth Skywalker Trilogy Coming After Long Star Wars Movie Break?
http://movieweb.com/star-wars-new-sk...trilogy-plans/

[scrock25]

If true, does this surprise anybody? They're going to milk the fucker until it's dry.

[Roose13]

That shit will never be dry if they keep it generational. Would be awesome to have a Star Wars trilogy my future kids could get excited about. I'd buy them all the fucking toys they want. Shut up and take my future lack of money, Disney!

actually yea, I'd thought this was pretty well understood from the beginning, when they laid out the whole plan a few years back. They want a new Star Wars movie every year basically in perpetuity now. That's not just gonna mean all anthology films once Episode 9 has rolled its credits. But yea I figured it was known another "saga" trilogy would come after that.

I've heard that info probably some time late last week. I believe it. I'd heard after 9 they were going to wait 5-10 years to start 10-12. At least it would give Rey & Co some time to age.

I'm all for more Star Wars, but SW isn't Marvel. I'm afraid there's only so much SW that can be made before major burnout happens.

[justink]

They didn't plop down $9 Billion fucking dollars to NOT make movies.

[justink]

Also, SW official twitter confirmed that Jar Jar is Snoke

Star Wars Episode IX Will Bring Back Carrie Fisher Without CGI
http://comicbook.com/starwars/2017/0...e-without-cgi/

"Fisher, as well as Carrie's daughter Billie Lourd, both gave the studio approval to use recent footage for the upcoming film, though CGI will also play a big part. “I’m not the only part in that equation, but I think the people deserve to have her,” said Fisher. “She's owned by them. You don't mess with this legacy. It would be like rewriting the Bible. To me, Star Wars is the holy grail of storytelling and lore and you can't mess with it.”

[coldengrey12]

I'm speaking sacrilege to some I'm sure, but after Ep IX, they should really recast.

I think it'll be jarring at first, but if Disney wants this franchise to live on and on, people will just accept that different performers will play those roles over time, like how we've had like a dozen Batmans.

[chadizzy1]

I still think Disney should release the original trilogy (non special edition) on Blu Ray. They would make so much money.

I read this a while back:

http://lrmonline.com/news/sorry-folk...-to-blu-rayyet

"In short, the studio does not have a complete 4K version of the unaltered editions. Now, the piece went on to state that Disney does have the “trims” removed from the original trilogy negatives. What this means is that they could somehow transfer those trims to 4K and insert them into the 4K versions they currently have with them. So, in essence, it is possible for Disney to make it work."
