Re-do the prequel as if it never existed.
Find a way to make Joseph Gordon Levitt taller via CG and make Zoey Dechannel Padme. Instant awesomesauce!!

Jedi is probably the worst movie of the series and Lucas didn't direct it. Empire is the best and Lucas didn't direct it but Kershner never ever came close to matching that film in his career before or after that.
I appreciate the prequels. It'll take another 10 years for them to be just accepted. There is still too much shock associated with them.
Its like Alien 3. It took 12 years for people to actually get over it and then it had to be follwed up by a truly average movie so perspective could be gained on how good it actually was.

Yeah, the last batch of starwars movies have been disappointing. But I love the starwars universe to death, so I wont be complaining when/if a new trilogy emerges.
I'll be there day one like the dirty fucking whore that I am.

Thrawn Trilogy or Bust.
Also, I can't believe Coppola would actually consider directing Star Wars. That would be awesome if it happened, though.
It seems like there's a story about this 'new trilogy' every couple of years, though.

I just came in to say that I'm with this guy.
I wouldn't be surprised at all, Lucas has no reason not to.
True dat. It's become trendy to hate on RotJ and glibbly throw out Ewoks as the only excuse. People forget the bronze bikini of a million teenage masturbation fantasies, the speeder bike chase, everything with Luke/Vader/Palpatine, and the best space battle of all time. Our shields cannot repel firepower of that magnitude bitches, you best believe it.

Let's go ahead and ruin the series some more.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

The prequels ruined him for me. He had a mean streak in the OT, but he was a complete asshole in the prequels. I couldn't wait to see him get his ass kicked.Messypandas said:Its a true sequel, one that focuses on the strengths of the original and improves them whilst continuing the story. Granted, it lives and dies on ANH (it doesn't exist without it, so it hasn't got the stand-alone going for it). It also has the shock twist that is truly ingrained in pop culture. Also:

Far and away, Episode 3 was the worst of the prequel bunch. I saw it once in theaters & can't stand to watch it even when it's on TV. It was so removed from what made Star Wars so amazing in the first place... Mathew Stover's novel adaptation of Episode 3 on the other hand, now that was pretty fucking awesome.

I still don't get why anyone thought III was the best of the prequels. tPM would have been pretty good sans Jar Jar and the whole midiclorines thing, that tried to give something mythical a scientific explanation. AotC at least didn't do anything to hurt the mythos of the OT, and had the bad ass chase through the asteroids. But RotS was just complete ass that ruined the OT by having Vader kill all of those kids because he was in some weak emo rage (making him IMO completely unredeemable) and by the end actually put me to sleep.

That would be excellent, but I don't see Jackson ever doing it.
He hates magic and stuff like that. The reason LOTR stayed relatively grounded.
That and the WETA/LucasFilm rivalry.
I'd love to see Stanton and the Pixar boys do one if we were putting out our dreamlist.

Err.... ILM not LucasFilm, but same deal.
But yeah, it seemed like it was pretty adversarial when both LOTR and the prequels in production.
And I'd like to see them fast forward and focus on a "new generation" and the problems there. Not on Luke and them so much. Needs some Han action though. Wonder if Carrie would get back on the coke to slim up for the role.

Eh? Having some key employees poached by a competitor = helping? And they didn't help Weta Digital get started. They were founded in support of Heavenly Creatures. Things just ramped up a lot on Frighteners.Wii said:

I'm right here with this guy. I saw the prequels and didn't mind them, although it helped that I was born way after the originals, so my expectations were never too high or distorted by nostalgia. My suspicion is that in 20 years new generations will come around and go "wow, people really overreacted about how bad the prequels were." Which is not to say they're that awesome, but that the original trilogy is put on too high a pedestal for various cultural and nostalgia reasons.

No way. Lucas is a control freak. He'd never hand over directing responsibilities to someone whose contract would demand final cut (or even challenge him.)
Ep 4,5,6 were enjoyable, 1,2,3 were terrible. yes I see a bright future for 7,8,9. As long as it involves Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie (she would make a bad-ass Sith) and That Jason Gordon Levitt as the Jedi-son of Han Solo and Leia Skywalker, who inherited the bad-assness and ability to talk to Wookies from his dad and the power of the force through his mother's bloodline.
Knowing Lucas, it will be with Marlon Wayans as a Sith and Shia Le Beef as Luke Skywalker's son.

Return of the Jedi is the best Star Wars film. Originally it was going to be directed by some guy but he was removed shortly after filming began and Lucas took over.

Only if the new movie involves Yoda kicking everybody's ass.
