It definitely would have been a very different experience. Part of the fun of the PT was knowing where things were going to end up, but not knowing how we were going to get there.

I still stick to my belief that there will be a 7, 8 and 9. At least I hope so! I want to see Anakin Solo, Jaina and Jacen, Mara Jade Skywalker and the Yuuzhan Vong on the big screen!

Yea knowing how the prequels would end was good. I really think they should of focused more on the clone wars.. I mean you see the beggining and then the end. If they focused on the clone wars then the relationship between Obi-wan and Anikan would of been more real ROTS would have been more chilling i think if we saw there bond deepend to what it was described to be.

I wish that 7,8,9 were a reality you have any cast ideas for the slol children?

Well, I suppose that would be a great idea for another blog. I'll have to think on that..... and post them in a blog! Do you?

Well, the main reason for the PT was to tell a story that had already been partly told. Everyone already kinda knew what was gonna happen, but we wanted more in depth knowledge of it. Don't get me wrong though, I'd have loved it just as much if they'd made eps. 7,8,and 9 instead. I'll just keep hoping and wishing for it.

i think we all are hoping for more films regardless of what lucas has said!

If I was going to make 7, 8, and 9, I wouldn't even go so far into the future as to have the Solo kids in it. I would just love to see the Grand Admiral Thrawn trilogy (Heir to the Empire and so forth) played out on screen. If you do the Solo kids, you run into the same problems that the prequels ran into, where you have to create entirely new character interactions rather than relying on the already wonderful bond between Luke, Han, and Leia.

Also, the Thrawn trilogy is by far my favorite in the series.

I've been thinking. I loved the prequel trilogy but i have to wonder if Lucas should of gone forward instead of back.

Personally, I would not have minded whether Lucas did 1-3 or 7-9. But . . . between the ROTJ and TPM releases, there were a lot of post-ROTJ stories published. So, perhaps it's a good thing that Episodes 1-3 were made. Besides, it made the saga multi-generational.

It's inevitable that there will be episodes 7,8 and 9. I hope there will be films on Knights of the Old Republic and the Mandalorian Wars.
