Lord Zacarus Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I've heard this rumor that George Lucas is thinkin about remaking episodes 4-6 to make up for the lack of technology and special effects in the original 3 star wars episodes. Now i know that if he does this he will screw it up but the true fan in me doesnt want the movies to end after May 19th. Is this rumor true?

Gorth Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Could it be related to this: http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=32268 I stopped caring about the movies a while ago, but even I would shiver at the thought of Jar Jar Binks destroys the Death Star. I hope it's just some digital filtering of the originals for 3D showings... “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Hive Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I heard, about the time when the DVD versions were released, that he is considering to do another release in 2007 or 2008 - where more special effects and links to the prequels are added (but not a complete redo). Stuff like more intensive lightsaber duels and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilikus Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 There was an article on msn.co.uk saying that he wanted to make the movies again, but in 3-D, and releasing one of them a year. I was'nt sure whether I liked the idea, or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Wastl Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Never ever believe something that comes from supershadow... There most likely will be a re-release in 2007. Some of you might have read about the improvement of 3D-technology that Cameron, Lucas and some other directors promote. They even found a way to make a normal movie into a 3D one. All Star Wars movies will be released in 3D, starting with Episode IV for the 30th anniversary of Star Wars in 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astatine Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I think 3D cinema is cool and would like to see a re-release in that format. Just so long as he doesn't... break... anything... this... time... ~gnaws knuckles~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure79 Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I wouldn't mind a remake as long as its done at least a generation from now. Have a talented young director have a go at it see what he/she can do. I'd be in my fifties and it would be a interesting movie to watch with my grandkids...if I ever dupe a woman into marrying me, or if I get duped into marrying her, and we successfully procreate and our children are duped into marriage...you know. I say just leave the classic versions alone for now. Or rather don't bother them anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Objulen Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Assuming that GL actually wants to do a remake, I'd be all for it if they were as good or better than the origional 3. The only thing that needs to stay is James Earl Jones' voice as Vader -- nothing tops that. However, given the fact that GL can't write or direct worth anything, (not to mention makes poor casting decisions -- why he chose the actor for Anakin in episode II that he did, I don't know, but it was the wrong choice) I'm not optismistic that he would make anything worthwhile.

Azure79 Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Maybe he'll give Junior a saberwhip. That would liven things up! Also I wouldn't mind a few cool state of the art face melting special effects. I mean you can't get enough of pompous Nazis getting their faces melted. Try not to touch the heart ripping out scene. It still scares me like hell. I think its perfect the way it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulicus Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Surely George Lucas remaking the Original Trilogy is the best thing for die-hard fans and those who want to see completely suped up Eps 4-6? I mean, *think about it*. If he remakes the original trilogy, with new actors, he wouldn't feel the need to alter the Original Trilogy (since it wouldn't be part of "his canon"- and may well go ahead and release it UNALTERED on DVD. Which is exactly what all the purists want. I mean, do you want to know why I've never complained about the special editions? (Well aside from the fact I like most of the changes, heh) - because I have the Originals on video. It's not like they stop existing just because there are new versions. All a lot of fuss about nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can not find an origional copy of Blade Runner for the life of me -- locating an origional copy of the classic trilogy would be quite a task if there aren't cheap copies on Ebay.
