Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope
|
IMDB rating: 8.80 Plot: In a distant galaxy eons before the creation of the mythical planet known as Earth, vast civilizations have evolved, and ruling the galaxy is an interstellar Empire created from the ruins of an Old Republic that held sway for generations. It is a time of civil war, as solar systems have broken away from the Empire and are waging a war of rebellion. During a recent battle techical schematics for a gigantic space station, code named The Death Star, have been unearthed by Rebel spies, and a young woman who is a dissident member of the Imperial Senate, under the cover of a diplomatic mission to the planet Alderaan, is trying to smuggle these plans to the Rebellion. But her spacecraft is attacked by a vast warship of the Empire and seized. The dissident Senator is captured, but the plans for the Death Star are nowhere to be found. While soldiers of the Empire search the nearby planet Tatooine, a series of incidents sweeps up a young desert farmer with dreams of being a fighter pilot in the Rebellion, as he winds up with the Death Star plans and also the assistance of an elderly hermit who once served as a warrior of an ancient order whose chosen weapons were powerful energy swords known as light sabers. The pair recruit a cynical interstellar smuggler and his outsized alien copilot with an ancient freighter heavily modified for combat to help them reach Alderaan - but the planet is obliterated and now the foursome must rescue the young woman held prisoner by the Empire and lead an attack by the Rebellion against the Death Star before it can annihilate all hope of restoring freedom to the galaxy. |

Star Wars Episode iv,v,vi Remake?
Will they be remaking the old StarWars trilogies? IV,V,VI (A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi)? If they are could I please have a link where I can find more info on it…thanks.
Not one single chance in hell. If "old school" fans got even the slightest whiff of Lucas even thinking about doing this he would have thousands of fans dressed as Jedi with their toy lightsabres in hand storming Skywalker Ranch in an attempt to find George and beat some sense into him … lol …
In truth it would be close to impossible to remake the movies and have them be anything more than a minor hit. There are some actors/actresses who simply "own" the characters they play. In the OT you have 3 of them. Yes, Mark Hamil & Carrie Fisher didn’t go on to become the superstar that Harrison Ford did but they owned their parts as Luke & Leia. Fans would not accept remakes without the original cast and that is close to impossible.
May The Force Be With You …

Why would they do that? They are as perfect as they can be. Star Wars is the best thing to happen to the film industry and a remake would just kill it, like the Pink Panther with Steve Martin.
Yeah, it's Alex
This is the first I’ve ever heard of it.
I doubt very much that this would *ever* happen. I can’t think of a single good reason anybody would take such a huge financial risk to remake films which are already pretty darn close to perfect (for what they are) already.
Where did you hear such a thing?

Can you imagine a re-make??! It would probably be another film that has Kate Winslet in it!!
When that happens I’ll slit my wrists!!!
