There are so many new Star Wars projects that are being announced that I figured it was time to start a thread. I'll update accordingly.

Today, it was announced that Jon Favreau will Executive Produce and Write a new Star Wars Live Action series set for Disney's new Streaming Service.

JON FAVREAU TO EXECUTIVE PRODUCE AND WRITE LIVE-ACTION STAR WARS SERIES. THE DIRECTOR OF IRON MAN AND THE JUNGLE BOOK WILL HELM THE SERIES FOR DISNEY’S NEW DIRECT-TO-CONSUMER PLATFORM.

Lucasfilm is excited to announce that Emmy-nominated producer and actor Jon Favreau has signed on to executive produce and write a live-action Star Wars series for Disney’s new direct-to-consumer platform. Favreau is no stranger to the Star Wars galaxy having played roles in both the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series and in the upcoming Solo: A Star Wars Story.

“I couldn’t be more excited about Jon coming on board to produce and write for the new direct-to-consumer platform,” says Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy. “Jon brings the perfect mix of producing and writing talent, combined with a fluency in the Star Wars universe. This series will allow Jon the chance to work with a diverse group of writers and directors and give Lucasfilm the opportunity to build a robust talent base.”

Favreau is thrilled to be returning to the Star Wars galaxy: “If you told me at 11 years old that I would be getting to tell stories in the Star Wars universe, I wouldn’t have believed you. I can’t wait to embark upon this exciting adventure.”

Disney’s collaborations with Favreau extend back a decade, when he helped launch the Marvel Cinematic Universe as director of Iron Man and Iron Man 2 and as an executive producer of the Iron Man and Avengers films for Marvel Studios. For Disney, he directed and produced the massively successful The Jungle Book, which won an Academy Award for its groundbreaking visual effects. He is currently in production on Disney’s highly anticipated reimagining of The Lion King, set for release in 2019.

The untitled Star Wars live-action series does not yet have a release date.

GAME OF THRONES CREATORS DAVID BENIOFF AND D.B. WEISS TO WRITE AND PRODUCE A NEW SERIES OF STAR WARS FILMS

David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are going from Winterfell to a galaxy far, far away.

It was announced today that Benioff and Weiss, creators of the smash-hit, Emmy Award-winning television series Game of Thrones, will write and produce a new series of Star Wars films.

These new films will be separate from both the episodic Skywalker saga and the recently-announced trilogy being developed by Rian Johnson, writer-director of Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

“David and Dan are some of the best storytellers working today,” said Kathleen Kennedy, president of Lucasfilm. “Their command of complex characters, depth of story and richness of mythology will break new ground and boldly push Star Wars in ways I find incredibly exciting.”

“In the summer of 1977 we traveled to a galaxy far, far away, and we’ve been dreaming of it ever since,” Benioff and Weiss said in a joint statement. “We are honored by the opportunity, a little terrified by the responsibility, and so excited to get started as soon as the final season of Game of Thrones is complete.”

No release dates have been set for the new films, and there have (thankfully) been no sightings of White Walkers around Lucasfilm.

LUCASFILM // NOVEMBER 9, 2017

RIAN JOHNSON, WRITER-DIRECTOR OF STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI, TO CREATE ALL-NEW STAR WARS TRILOGY

For director Rian Johnson, Star Wars: The Last Jedi was just the beginning of his journey in a galaxy far, far away.

Lucasfilm is excited to announce that Johnson will create a brand-new Star Wars trilogy, the first of which he is also set to write and direct, with longtime collaborator Ram Bergman onboard to produce.

As writer-director of The Last Jedi, Johnson conceived and realized a powerful film of which Lucasfilm and Disney are immensely proud. In shepherding this new trilogy, which is separate from the episodic Skywalker saga, Johnson will introduce new characters from a corner of the galaxy that Star Wars lore has never before explored.

“We all loved working with Rian on The Last Jedi,” said Kathleen Kennedy, president of Lucasfilm. “He’s a creative force, and watching him craft The Last Jedi from start to finish was one of the great joys of my career. Rian will do amazing things with the blank canvas of this new trilogy.”

“We had the time of our lives collaborating with Lucasfilm and Disney on The Last Jedi,” Johnson and Bergman said in a joint statement. “Star Wars is the greatest modern mythology and we feel very lucky to have contributed to it. We can’t wait to continue with this new series of films.”

Johnson’s upcoming Star Wars: The Last Jedi arrives in U.S. theaters on Dec. 15, 2017.

No release dates have been set for the new films, and no porgs were available for comment.

Some really incredible world building, great performances, espcially from the damn pirate droid and the setpiece with the garbage smasher was CLASSIC Star Wars!

They managed to make you like ALL those kids, too.
Skeleton Crew was a lot of fun.

Aimed at a young audience, but fun enough for adults to enjoy.

I'm not sure I understand the hate that Episode 7, 8, and 9 get. Those are the best 3 stars wars movies I've ever watched. Even though it was a classic for it's time the original trilogy is ****ing garbage.

No one agrees with you, thankfully.

The sequel trilogy is a hollow ripoff of the original trilogy.

If you can't see that, you are ignorant, or just trolling.

I watched Revenge of the Sith because it's getting a little bit of a bump of late. People are trying to argue for it as being worthy of consideration for the 2 slot in the franchise - maybe even the 3.

Nah. Not getting there.

The CGI battle scenes are really bad. The slapstick stuff with the droids.

You just cannot say enough about how much the movies suffer when they get away from practical effects. For most of those scenes it felt no different than watching a really long version of the animated series.

Now unlike many of the movies, there were some incredible moments in Sith -- I'll give it that. But there's still just too much shite mixed in along the way. I think the main problem was situating Grevious as the secondary antagonist ahead of Dooku. Christopher Lee brought some real gravitas to the role and then they just kill him off 10 minutes into the movie and you end up with this stupid gravely robot thing with lousy CGI as the secondary villain for the next 1/3 of the movie. They should've found a way to flip that around.

Really wish there was a directors cut of Revenge of the Sith. There's a **** ton of cut content that would've made the movie much better (also 5 hours long).

3 more hours of CGI battle scenes and slapstick droid humor wouldn't have improved the final product.

The stuff that got cut was probably hot trash.

Eh, Grievous WOULD'VE been at least a neat spectacle but apparently Lucas decided to make him way more of a joke than originally planned.

It's out there to read. The novelization was what Lucas originally planned the movie to be.

The issue for that movie isn't even the story, though.

The story is fine. Oh sure, it could be better, but it was good enough for a damn good movie. As good or better than Empire and Empire was still great.

It was the execution. They just told the story poorly. The visuals are awful. The performances by the actors range from awful (Christensen) to indifferent (Jackson). It was even McGregor's worse performance (though again, he has some fantastic moments).

It was just really poorly made. Adding more story to it wouldn't have changed that -- it would've been like giving Skyy Moore additional snaps. At a point, you're just adding volume to the suck -- not improving upon it.

If JJ Abrams had directed and produced George's PT scripts and George Lucas had written JJ's ST scripts we would have had much better movies.
