The following news comes from MarketSaw, a very reliable source that is famous for breaking the news in the first place that Lucasfilm was going to get started on the new Star Wars trilogy.
Information about the casting: "Ian McDiarmid, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Billy Dee Williams, Anthony Daniels, Warwick Davies, Benedict Cumberbatch and Gary Oldman. I believe Cumberbatch and Oldman were pursued for the same role, but I don't know how that will work out with the script changes, but I'm told they are both involved." MarketSaw are now confirming the rumors about Cumberbatch and Oldman, badass! They start to talk about pre-production issues that have occurred.. "Many Star Wars pre-production issues, an 'inadequate' central story which nobody would stamp off on, a problematic initial release date and an 'indecisive' director (J.J. Abrams) with the hardest gig in the industry. It's not going to be a cakewalk, but it will be a product shipping with the majority of its original parts." J.J. Abrams plans on telling this story.. "Ultimately it's about twins, and which will take a path towards darkness and which will follow in their father's footsteps, or at least that is what it used to be, that may come later as I think changes are being undertaken to bring the original cast into the forefront of the story leading to ramifications that lead up to the next generation of Skywalkers." I'm very excited about this film coming out, and from what we can tell this movie will be focused around the children of Leia and Han Solo..more than likely the twins? |

So an EU story? I wonder if they'll loosely use the parameters set up by the books....

The entire series? Heh.
Frankly I'm surprised you've never watched it. |

It takes a season or two to get into high gear as I recall.
Come to think of it, I don't think I ever saw the movie. Heard it was pretty bad. Didn't start watching the series until midway season 1. There are still some bad eps/arcs (the whole "bringing balance to the force" thing with Anakin in particular was I thought done poorly). But it's pretty steadily good by the end, and the good definitely outweighs the bad. |

Anakin was pretty badass in the Clone Wars. I like his padawan, too.
He was a whiny dickface in the prequels. |
