EP3: Title Rumors Persist
Thu, Mar 18, 04 09:55:49 AM EST

OK, two wild rumors on the same subject today.

The first is that a Costco in Santa Cruz was test running a very early and basic teaser for Episode III. It was described as Vader breathing, then a shot of Hayden to black, then the Helmet and back to black, then you hear the sound of a lightsaber and a big red line across the bottom of the plasma screen. The title card that read Rise of the Empire Coming May 2005.

Sounds impossible? We thought so too, but decided to run it right after we got more emails from "friends of friends" that also mentioned production for artwork and promotional material is very much underway for a little film called, Rise of the Empire. Legit? Just the rumblings for today ...

---

I prefer 'Revenge of the Sith' as a title, but this one ain't so bad, if it's true.

Let's pray it doesn't suck as bad as Ep I & II.

riosluts · 03-18-2004, 12:48 PM

Ahh finally the last one. Ive been waiting about 30 years for it. It will finally put all the pieces of the puzzle together

There have been rumblings lately that Eps 7-9 may eventually get made independently from Lucas's direction. That would be a good thing.

Ep II was a alot better than I but both where still a dissapointment.

Rise of the Empire would sell more tickets than Revenge of the Sith

kimzar · 03-18-2004, 12:56 PM

watching all of them in order would be cool after the last prequill comes out

The books have been written already in the early 90's they was the first trilogy of books Lucas gave permission to write, takes place 1 to 3 yrs after Jedi

They have had a few trilogy?s that were ok, but the new series with the "invasion" plain sucked ass. Reason I stopped reading them.

I was pretty disappointed with 1 & 2, hopefully this one won't suck as well

Xenophage · 03-18-2004, 11:16 PM

did they say where in costco in santa cruz they were running it

I will go down tomorrow and check it out.

liquidmoe · 03-18-2004, 11:19 PM

Speaking from their track record with I and II sucking badly, all signs point to the fact that III will suck as well. I'm sure it will make a ton of money, but it will still most likely suck.

Stewie · 03-18-2004, 11:21 PM

ESB was the best one of the 5 thus far.

...

I think you're referring to the Timothy Zahn 3-part series. It was very good. While I heard it was officially "licensed" as parts 7-9, the movies may have different story lines.

CheeseFrog · 03-18-2004, 11:25 PM

There was some post on another msg board showing artist drawings from episode 3. One scene depicted Anakin Skywalker being reconstructed by the Empire and the medical droids are installing that button that calls his parents to come pick him up.

Ash@phpFX · 03-18-2004, 11:37 PM

What he said.

Bansheelinks · 03-18-2004, 11:53 PM

Oh, and Lucas seems to have really lost the art of storytelling.

Lets at least hope its better than 1 and 2; those were abysmal disappointments.

BradM · 03-18-2004, 11:54 PM

I waited in line for both I and II
Hardcore fan of the firsts. I was very disappointed in them both.

Interestingly, Return of the Jedi was originally titled Revenge of the Jedi. Pussy ass Lucas thought it sounded too violent and changed the word to "Return." There are posters out there with the original title worth a lot.

pimplink · 03-19-2004, 01:17 AM

Let's just hope that it'll be better this time.

Bansheelinks · 03-19-2004, 03:00 AM

did you also dress up like your favourite jedi

421Fill · 03-19-2004, 03:15 AM

I can't wait for this one. What would the Sith be taking revenge for, anyways?

O I can wait...........the last two were BAD. I'm going to go to this one with low expectations.

BiggleJones · 03-19-2004, 03:42 AM

Such a shame Lucas turned into a total fag. After LOTR he:

a) shouldn't even make the film, because it's going to be horrible
b) let someone else direct it the right way.

Now I dont want to come off as a Star Wars hater. They were my FAVORITE films as kid and still are today (The original cuts). Lucas just seemed to become a complete Tool, and forget who his real audience is, and starts marketing to kids.

The worst thing is that now he says he wants to make the final 3 films after this.

...Just let Pete Jackson (or any director other than himself) direct them, please

TweetyBird · 03-19-2004, 05:31 AM

Lucas won't have the time to do the 3 final films... he'll be way too old

Joe Citizen · 03-19-2004, 05:32 AM

That evil fucker Lucas is never getting another cent of my money.

Star Wars sucks.
