Realistically, what would need to happen for him to get the rights to Star Wars and remake the ST in his own design?
Mark Hamill would 100% be on board, Ford probably not unless they convinced him.
The only scenario is IX absolutely Bombing and Disney cutting their losses, selling Star Wars to another studio who gains the nerd box office by putting Lucas in charge of new movies. Then he decanonizes the ST
Not gonna happen unless he gives the 10 billions back and he won't.
Juan Bennett
Literally impossible at this point, give up.
Owen Williams
About as likely as Donald Trump becoming the President of the United States. So, incredibly small, everyone would laugh at the very idea of it, but stranger things have happened in this life, it IS possible, if the stars aligned and things lined up properly technically yeah it COULD happen.
Eli Phillips
Dom and the crew should steal the rights back from Disney with their cars and then give it to lucas
Anthony Hughes
I APOLOGIZE GEORGE

>Not gonna happen unless he gives the 10 billions back and he won't. He already gave all the money to charity though
Noah Walker
Somewhere a fatass /pol /ster is waking from their slumber to get on their new laptop and hijack this thread
Christian Adams
No he fucking didn't.
Angel Gomez
>Realistically, what would need to happen for him to get the rights to Star Wars and remake the ST in his own design? A miracle.
Ryan Gutierrez
>Young Han bombs >Episode 9 gets a poor box office >Kathleen reconsiders her decision to get Lucas on board to help (since she originally did state back in 2015 that she was thinking of getting Lucas to help out before she took full control) Who knows they might ask Lucas for some story ideas if things don't go well.
Also, DC Films is making films not connected to the DCEU so why can't they get Lucas to make something not connected to Disney's timeline?
Evan White
Does this look like a rich man to you? George doesn't care about money. If you actually knew him he does give a lot of his stuff away to charities. He's a kind soul.
Luke Bailey
Carrie is dead, Ford is not far off and Hamill is gonna suffer a heavy blow to his health when he starts dealing with all this depression because of Luke. It would also require people to heavily monitor george and make sure he doesn't goes off the deep end, if George has too much control you end up with the stupidest shit like clone wars or crystal skull, keep your georges in control.
But besides that, it's over user, move on, stop buying star wars shit. If they ever remake episodes 7-9 everyone from the OT is gonna be long gone.
Adam Adams
>or crystal skull Ancient Aliens makes more sense than God
Kayden Davis
How about Lucas makes a new animated trilogy with Mark as Luke, Ford as Han (or just get someone who sounds like him if he doesn’t want to do it), and Billie Lourd as Leia?
Dominic Wright
Whatever fulfills your autistic atheism. It sure as hell doesn't fits that franchise.
Zachary Davis
>About as likely as Donald Trump becoming the President of the United States That's bullshit and you know it. The only reason it seemed ridiculous for Trump to win was because it was painted that way by people desperate to sideline him. The odds may not have been in his favor, but they were closer to 50/50 than 100/1. There's no way in hell that Disney would ever relinquish Star Wars back to Lucas, and you can quote me on that. It would be an embarrassment so profound that they would literally never recover from it as a brand.
Blake Cruz
Can't someone do an Orville? Very much Star wars in everything but name. Start with a good story, hijack the fan base and crowd fund it.
Luis Moore
>About as likely as Donald Trump becoming the President of the United States He went up against Hillary Clinton, a known criminal despised by most people. Trump had a good chance because the DNC went full retard.
Hunter Johnson
George Lucas 2024. Make it happen pol.
Landon Johnson
2024 is Zuckerberg
Jaxon Jones
2020 George is not /yourguy/, Sup Forums.
Connor Miller
>filthy rich, household name has an "incredibly small" chance of winning the presidency Only idiots think so, and he probably would have won even without the email scandal. Anyone who was paying attention knew that he was likely to win the Rustbelt and the electoral college.
Wyatt Lee
Selling the rights to Star Wars is the worst thing he's done. The prequel trilogy is nothing compared to this blunder.
this kind of thing won't happen, until star wars don't make money, like when disney sold back power rangers to saban
Angel Hernandez
You people need to realize that by the time Episode IX ends and ALL the OT characters are gone or forgotten, Star Wars will still continue, this time with no attachments to the originals at all. That means no Luke, no Han, no Leia, no Vader, and no Lucas.
The second sequel trilogy (and the third and the fourth) will use Rey and Kylo as mythic figures. They will be even more subversive than TLJ, because they won't have anything to do with nostalgia anymore. That means anything goes. We will probably even get to see the first transgender jedi knight. Or the first SW sex scene.
You think I'm crazy but this will all happen in the next 5 to 10 years.
Tyler White
I think by the time they're done with their current batch people will lose interest. Same goes for cape shit after Infinity war. Nobody will care anymore.
Ryan Bailey
What if he got the rights to Buck Rogers and made that movie?
Aaron Gonzalez
Disney is really corrupt and lots of top Disney executives can be brought down or persuaded to do crazy things very easily.
Star Wars is probably bleeding mad money for Disney right now. Toys are making jack to nill shit money, I mean for fucks sakes Toys R Us just declared bankruptcy and a large reason for that was an absolute freefall in Star Wars The Force Awakens toy sales. The only toymaker making money of Star Wars is Lego right now and even there the hottest sets are all original trilogy/prequels stuff. TFA had few good ships/tech that could be turned into cool stuff.
TLJ is most likely going to barely break even for Disney and that's it. No toy sales whatsoever which is insane for a Star Wars movie because Lucas made majority of his money from Star Wars themed toy sales.
Anyways I think there is a very good possibility that Disney will come to a "rational decision" to sell LucasArts back to George Lucas and an investment group in late 2018, early 2019.
Now the real question is going to be who is going to be the director and writer for the new trilogy?
Charles Turner
...
Aaron Gomez
they don't actually lose money on bad toy sales, the retails absorb losses first and then the toy manufacturers next.
Lincoln Taylor
>fixing a failing franchise by emulating the DCEU
Jack Anderson
you just know that if they actually ask he'll either politely decline or offer the most cryptic criticism of disney and corporate hollywood in the form of a story outline.
Alexander Cooper
just give up, tlj was shit but if you honestly believe the prequels were better films you deserve to be lobotomized in the most human method possible for endangering yourself and the human race with your regressing mental state you dumb stupid inept fucking idiot retards......alright Disney wheres my check
Kevin Butler
>The only toymaker making money of Star Wars is Lego right now and even there the hottest sets are all original trilogy/prequels stuff.
No wonder when your latest trend is to sell half of an earlier set for an in relation increased price.
Josiah Peterson
Ok George, first lose some weight if you're going to make another movie. Eat right and exercise. Then as someone in the thread suggested, buy the rights to Buck Rogers. Then write a first draft script and filter it through a co-writer. Lastly be open to criticism when you make the movie and surround yourself with talented young people. No GO, DO.
Cameron Butler
And the less said about those shelfwarmers the better.
