  1. Glad I wasn’t the only person who liked Chappie. It’s not in the same league as District 9, but it had some good things I enjoyed. Chappie was a cool character imo. For Star Wars movies I hope they do some stuff in the Knights of the Old Republic storylines. It would be something a lot different than the original Star Wars and they wouldn’t feel the need to force in popular characters we all know.

    1. Can you do a better story than the game already did though? Don’t get me wrong I do like that time period but I don’t see doing anything better than the Darth Revan storyline.

  2. I don’t get why they are making multiple Ghostbusters movies and Bill Murray isn’t in any of them. Makes my mind explode

      1. I love what Bill Murray’s been doing recently. The guy lives by his own rules and if I was a celebrity I would want to be like Bill.

  3. Am I the only one a little worried about the Star Wars
    spin-offs? I don’t want Star Wars to become too watered down. It’s great they
    are getting talented directors like Rian Johnson to make more Star Wars movies
    at least. I am not super familiar with the expanded universe. I do like the
    Jedi though and would like to see more Jedi stuff.

    1. I can see what you are saying. But look at the Bond franchise. Goldfinger is still highly respected despite the fact Die Another Day is an awful movie.

  4. Am I the only one a little worried about the Star Wars spin-offs? I don’t want Star Wars to become too watered down. It’s great they are getting talented directors like Rian Johnson to make more Star Wars movies at least. I am not super familiar with the expanded universe. I do like the Jedi though and would like to see more Jedi stuff.

  5. What about doing a Star Wars genre movie. Like a horror movie taking place in the Star Wars universe. With all the crazy creatures and planets the have I’m sure you could find a way to do that.

    1. Well you do have the novel Death Troopers. It had zombie Storm Troopers. Good idea, awful execution. Could make a good movie though.

  6. I’d like to see Dark Nest , Broken from Star Wars: Legacy. Even Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter could be good. We did not get enough of that character in the prequels. Also a big fan of I, Jedi by Michael A. Stackpole’. That was one of my favorite novels growing up as a kid.
