According to this, Carrie Fisher will be back, too.

They got their info from this site:

It's surprising that the script info has been leaked already.

I forgot how awesome TheForce.Net forums were. LMAO

I agree with Hamill; build sets and dont be so precious about shit. How inspired can one get walking around greenscreen all day? Id go full DeMille/10 Commandments with that shit if I were in charge.

Seems Mark Hamill knows how much the prequels sucked and why...too much CGI, too much confusing stupid story, not enough fun. I hope they do go old school. It would be...ironically refreshing and new...

What I hope people remember is there is no way at all these new episodes will hold a candle to the original trilogy. Nothing ever will. Thats why its so funny hearing all the complaints about the prequels. Their purpose was not to make you relive the magic of the originals.Mostly because the theaters don't include a time machine To make you 7 again.

The great thing about SW is also what makes it hard to put on film now. Its a mythos everyone writes into. So no writer will ever make everyone happy with these characters. They need to pick a time period about around the old republic and run with new characters.

Doesn't matter, they were shitty movies.

No one gives a **** about Senate scenes or a terrible script with no central character.

Except for Jar Jar Binks, name me one thing that was aimed at 10 year olds in the God awful prequels...maybe Anakin in the first one, but by the time you get to Sith it's like no way kids even get this shit...not to mention Anakin killing the little jedi kids...

...not made for kids.

epi tres was the ONLY one that gave any love to the original fans.

Yeah, they were simply disasters. The more you think about them, the worse they get. Everything was bad.

How do you figure? Because they showed Vader as Vader? I guess. Other than that, it was a disaster. The story was convoluted and confusing. The originals were pretty simple. The prequels were so loaded with bloat and lame dialogue and ridiculous "action scenes" (which were so long and full of stuff that they actually were boring) that by the time I got done watching it, I wanted it to be over.

I get that they can never re-capture the magic of the originals, but Lucas screwed up the back story of Star Wars horribly. I just hope that Disney can find some way to recapture at least some of the magic. Anything would be better than those prequels though. I own the whole set, and whenever I go to watch, I end up just skipping the prequels altogether.

Help us Obi-Disney Kenobi...you are our only hope...

Looking back at Episode III, it had a couple of decent parts - the best being when Anikan and Padme were both watching the sunset - great symbolism for the end of light/coming darkness bit.

I assume Lucas must have been taking a shit while it was being filmed.
