Another Star Wars Prequel?

boarder8925 writes "George Lucas said he was finished with the Star Wars movies, but it seems George Lucas has an idea for another add-on to the Star Wars movie series: a prequel to The Phantom Menace. The story would follow the Jedi regaining control of the universe from the many Dark Lords some 88 years before Anakin Skywalker ever graced the universe. Yoda, who, according to Lucas, was instrumental in the effort, would apparently have a headlining role. However, Lucas, now age 60, says he won't be captaining such a ship if it ever happens."

    Dear mods,

    Like my other philosopher king /.'ers I have nothing to add to this story's comments but drivel, FUD and pre-pubescent rants. Please mod up my comment as it will contain the following:

    -quotation of Orwell (because that's the only book I've ever read) and how it applies to us /.'ers living in our parents basements everywhere. Don't worry, I too refer to my parents as 'BIG BROTHER'. Yesterday I also chained myself to the evil capitalist food horde my parents refer to as a 'fridge' just to make sure my parents knew about the world /. pizza and mountain dew shortage.
    -a soothing anti-globalization, anti-american, anti-everything-that-is-'mainstream' rant which seduces your ego and pre-conceived left leaning american hating political views. Pass that bong brother mod and sing the praises of peace!
    -maybe, just maybe, a comment about linux.

    As you can see, I am much like you, therefore you should mod me up based on our similarities. Thank you, and may your groupthink grow strong.

    Signed, /. Drone

  2. A suitable Ayn Rand quote for /.'ers by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    "Throughout the centuries there were men who took the first steps down new roads armed with nothing but their own vision. Their goals differed, but they all had this in common: that the step was first, the road new, the vision unborrowed, and the response they received -- hatred. The great creators -- the thinkers, the artists, the scientists, the inventors -- stood alone against the men of their time. Every great new thought was opposed. Every great new invention was denounced. The first motor was considered foolish. The airplane was considered impossible. The power loom was considered vicious. Anesthesia was considered sinful. But the men of unborrowed vision went ahead. They fought, they suffered and they paid. But they won."

    Yeah, go ahead and mod me down.
