I dunno about this live-action series, but the 2008 Clone Wars cartoon can be pretty right messed up and mature, in a way, at time; at least when you starting thinking about what you just saw instead of just "Oooh, explosions." Examples in Season 2 include torture, use of flamethrowers on living creatures, and potential genocide.

They should make a Star Wars for old people. You know, one where Han breaks his hip, Luke forgets to take his pills and Chewbacca struggles with erectile disfunction.
They could call it Nerf Herders.

It's like making Aliens but for kids. I admit that that example is over the top, but what's wrong with catering to the current fanbase until those kids get to the right age? I would like to see effort put into making some expanded universe movies or a series aimed at the same age group as the original movies when they came out.Irridium said:

That age group would be at least into their 30's by now. And would have lots of responsabilities. They are people who will always say that nothing will be as good as the old films, and most likely wouldn't jump on anything new thats aimed at them.Abedeus said:
And besides. Apparantly that Star Wars TV series mentioned above will give them something they want.
I heard people make jokes about the series basically being changed to look like the toys since they saw the wooden Star Wars: the Clone Wars characters. I never thought we would come to THIS however. Jar Jar has nothing on this.
I loved some of the newer stuff they made (the Clone Wars cartoon series was freaking awesome and should have used the General Grievous voice over the ones in the movie (damn you screen actors guild).Soviet Heavy said:
Oh well, I guess there's nothing that says they shouldn't try to broaden their audience.
I myself actually have 3 of those galactic figures (I mean they're 2 Jawas and R2, I would never want a deformed hobbit looking Luke or Vader)
At least we still have Clone Wars, and think how much more mature it'll look next to Squishies.

you need to watch redlettermedia's review of The Phantom Menace. It will explain how that was a complete failure.Echolocating said:
So that's why the Mayan calendar ends in this year.
Basically, he takes the characters everyone likes, and replaces them with Ewoks. Those unfavourable become Gungans. Everyone will be strapped to chairs and forced to watch it Clockwork Orange-style with Episode's 2 Love Theme playing in the background.
Even Dante Alighieri wouldn't think of more terrifying Hell than this one.
Holy blast, it's like the best movie review I had ever seen, and I'll ever see in my entire life.Soviet Heavy said:
The Clone Wars cartoon series that came out in 2004 and 2005 was awesome but they ruined it with the new clone wars computer animated series.
Revenge Of The Sith hits theaters and it was awesome. I mean it was dark, violent, had wookies in it, decapitations, and children being killed.
Why can't they make a more adult Star Wars series, not child friendly but more geared to the age of 15-20 year olds?
