hm, I was a fan once. I thought the dark horse comics were always way better than any attempt, tv series will just spoil the magic, like it does in many other films. Although, haven't you notice there has been lack of space-based sci-fi movies or series latly?

thats why i was happy. Sci-Fi is coming back. Star Trek, i watched that a few times, but i thought it was confusing to those who just started watching it.

A) Which one? B) I feel that this (along with the Terminator: Sarah Conner Chronicles series) is going to destroy the fanbase. Making good movies into TV Series usually destroys the fanbase. I don't have any definitive proof on me (and I'd rather not look on such a trivial thing), but I'm pretty sure that Star Wars will lose the power behind it. (The Animated Series, if you recall, didn't last long at all.) You want something to be both? Make a TV series a movie, not vice-versa. Want to add to the storyline of a movie? Make another one. In the long run, cheaper and less stress, plus the fanbase will normally grow and be asking for more.

Music is the key to the heart.

"Once art to me was something far off, unfathomable and unreachable... But I discovered that the real essence of art was not something high up and far off, it was right inside my ordinary daily self. If a musician wants to be a fine artist, he must first become a finer person. A work of art is the expression of a person's whole personality, sensibility, and ability." -Shinichi Suzuki

Happens that way too, tv series into a movie, depending on the series type, screws it up. Of course, haven't happened as much as the other way around.

The animated series didn't last long because it was merely a filler between Episodes II and III Lucas could have done with animation rather than being put into the movies because its cheaper.

I'm willing to give it a shot. The premise is spot on. Other then a few short scenes at the end of Ep. III, we really don't know a whole lot about how the Republic transitioned into the Empire.
I'll give it a fair shot. It just has to avoid being Attack of the Clones bad to drive me away.

We need a good decent Sci-Fi show/movie. Firstly, they need to make a production of WH40k. And nothing cheesy with space marines that dissuades people who haven't heard of 40k to not watch. Something like Tanith ghosts fighting Chaos, or Cadians drafted into some service. No weird aliens with excessive CGI. Excessive CGI has really been taking away from modern Sci-Fi movies, they just look too fake and people don't feel the impact and suspense when all they see are explosions and lasers.

Battlestar Galactica was good when it wasn't boring. Firefly kicked ass, major major ass. I don't care if the fanbase was small, that show pwnd.

A Star Wars tv series would be ok, but you know they're going to overdo the graphics or shove Jedi nonsense down your throat. I want to get back to the bounty hunters, smugglers, pirates, and Empire of the Han Solo era. I am sick of good-doer Jedi 'paladins'.
