Thread: Star Wars: TV?

  1. Star Wars: TV?

    I've heard this rumor before, but I think it would be a slick idea if done right.Maybe have a couple of Boba Fett storylines,maybe a Wedge Antilles one,or maybe follow some of Luke's jedi kids or something.
    Personally, Ill believe it when I see it. And I especially wanted to plead bullshit when I saw that Mark Hamill was going to reprise his role of Luke Skywalker:

    Kevin Smith and Mark Hamill are doing the pilot for a new weekly Star Wars series. It'll feature Hamill as Skywalker in a 'pop up now and then' role, but mostly, it's new characters, set in the same world as the films.Lots of talk about it here, but don't expect anything until Episode III is out. Its a go project, but I don't think there's much on it yet.

    If he still had his pre-crash good looks, I would approve. But he hasn't had them since Episode IV. He should probably invest in some more surgery now.

    There are no rules, only consequences.

  3. A much as I like Kevin Smith... I have absolutely no hopes for this whatsoever.
    You sir, are a hideous hermaphroditical character which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.

    Why?

    He's been doing TV for years, mostly voice work. A couple of appearances a season would be no big deal for him.

    Make it animated and give it to Genndy. Then we're talking.

  6. Meh, I never felt his style was a very good fit for Star Wars. Give it to Bruce Timm.

    That'll work.

    yeah, I was going to mention this, but I figured everybody knew. A lot of crappy voice over parts too, though he got some good ones.

    It makes me wonder if he's sad inside, or wether he rolled with it and is genuinely as happy as he appears to be. It's got to rub on him that the crash doomed what would likely be a mediocre movie career. (Let's face it, he wasn't/isn't the best actor that ever lived.) And pretty much his last major role in a live action motion picture was a guy called cock knocker.

    It's probably fun work though.

  8. Eh, he never would have gotten another role like Luke and he knows it. He seems to enjoy being an accessible celebrity to dorks, in fact he embraces the ability to be a sort of punching bag among the culture.

  9. I hate this idea. Let Star Wars die please.

    I can stomach cartoons/CG shows ... but no more bad actors giving bad lines, plzkthx.

    Well, I guess you're right. It's not like his schedule is too busy or anything, I'm sure. And he could probably use the money, I'm betting that just doing voice overs doesnt pay a hell of a lot.

    It just seemed like a far out idea for Hamill to be coming back to acting in the Star Wars world again.
