Just because he let them use the name doesn't mean it's canon. He stated that the universe he created in Star Wars is huge and he was only telling one story, the others could be told by other writers. There are too many conflicting stories to consider all EU stuff part of the story he tells through the movies. He has only officially endorsed a few ideas from the EU, anything else is not to be taken as 'fact'. He said that it became clear to him that the trilogy he was writing was the middle of a story, a '9 part story' I think. He decided to tell the origins of Vader and saw that Vader's story was complete by episode 6 so there is no need to tell any more of the story after that. I am not a fanboy. :P |

From http://www.moviehole.net/news/5674.html
A prequel to The Phantom Menace? Posted on Wed, 25-May-2005 He says he's finished, but like a two-year-old on the Loo - has he really? George Lucas tells a scooper for Cinescape that in the back of his noggin' he has an idea for another add-on to the "Star Wars" movie series : A prequel to "The Phantom Menace". Nope, not the adventures of young Jar Jar Binks building an underwater haven - but the tales of the Jedi regaining control of the universe from the many Dark Lords some 88 years before Anakin Skywalker's bowl cut ever graced the earth. Yoda - who was instrumental in the effort - would apparently have a headlining role. Granted, Lucas, now 60, says he won't be captaining such a ship if it ever happens though. What's the bet FOX is going to lock him in a room, tie him to a chair and request he does anyway though? Personally, I say go the sequel route - earring adorned Harrison Ford back as vest wearing Solo, whiny Skywalker training Jedi Tykes, C3P0 getting into trouble at Mardis Gras - much more interesting : and Hey, we've already got "Knights of the Old Republic" the video-game to serve as background info on the pre-Anakin days. Meanwhile, "Revenge of the Sith" hogs the screen at every multiplex and is making quite a packet in doing so - it's now one of the biggest films ever. Yep, bypassed "Mannequin" about five minutes into it's first screening. and from the Daily Star Last edited by Rebelius : 26th May 2005 at 10:57 PM. |

Star Wars films in order of quality:
Episode III: Revenge of the Sith Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back Episode VI: Return of the Jedi Episode IV: A New Hope Episode II: Attack of the Clones Episode I: The Phantom Menace And by the way, Jar Jar Binks does appear in RotS, he just doesn't open his mouth. He's in the crowd gathered to greet Chancellor Palpatine back at the Senate at the start and he's in the funeral procession at the end. |
