Now, we hate to perpetuate rumors that may not have any basis in reality, but this latest bit of "Star Wars" left-field scuttlebutt has intrigued us because, well, it kinda makes sense. And if George Lucas isn't, in fact, planning on doing what this rumor claims he's planning on doing, he may want to consider it.
We're talking about nuking the Star Wars universe. Or, more specifically, erasing the original trilogy and all its goodness from the world for good.
The rumor - which, again, is extremely tenuous - claims that the in-development live-action "Star Wars" TV series (which Lucas claims has "over 50 hours" worth of scripts just sitting on a shelf, waiting) will begin with a group of bounty hunters discovering a way to travel through time. Armed with this new-found ability, they head back to the Clone Wars era and prevent Anakin Skywalker from becoming Darth Vader.

Woooow, seems way to crazy to be true.

I'd like to go over the fact that this article states "rumor" multiple times.

I'd like to limbo under it. But I'm just not that nimble.

I hope George Lucas gets stabbed in the heart with a plastic spork.

... No. Just no. The original trilogy is too many times better than the prequels to be non-canon.

I would be happy to see the force unleashed be turned into a feature film, or a tv show at least, I mean, starkiller is an actual actor. So it wouldn't make sense if he chose the stupid non-canon idea right?

I actually don't like any of the movies all that much (though I don't mind them), I prefer the games by far.

I like the prequels. I don't know why people make a big deal about them. Probably just nostalgia factor I guess. I saw the prequels before the final three.

The original (holy trilogy) started it all, how could they possibly even consider this? It's blasphemy!
But as stated these are simply rumors, so lets hope they stay that way.

Behind you.
Starwars... I prefer star trek, its more on my intellectual level. A startrek galactic spaceship manual contains as much detail as a NASA blueprint, the manual ends up with no sales because the vast majority of the population cannot comprehend such detail and rightly so. What on earth is it doing on a childrens sci-fi TV show series intended for entertainment purposes?

If there's one thing I hate more than nerds, it's space nerds.

Your intellectual level? I didn't know five year olds had a preference for Star Trek.

Mkilbride, why do you always do this? It's a rumor and you talk as if its actually happening, you do this with everything, got your bags packed for the end of the world this year? Because the mayans said you have to.

It's more a fact that the original trilogy he created was when he didn't have as much clout, so got over-ruled a lot on directing. Now he has clout....he can do his own thing, which......kind of shows he's not a great director and with every release he does he butchers it more and more. Let the poor thing be and stop modifying it :p

Why do many original star wars fans dislike the prequels?

3 words my friend.

Jar Jar Binks

But even if you can overlook that extremely annoying character, the prequels still fall way short of the originals.

There's so many reasons the originals are better. Han Solo for one.

But nothing, and I mean NOTHING comes close to seeing Princess Leia in the slave girl bikini.
