Better than nothing

Lucas will make two more live-action films set in everyone’s favorite galaxy far, far away.  These films will likely be an hour each, and will air on television, though he doesn’t know on what channel (The Sci-Fi network?).  Says Lucas of the films, "they won’t have members of the Skywalker family as characters.  They will be other people of that milieu."

Here is one report.  The episodes are supposed to be set between installments III and IV and they are scheduled for 2009.

IMHO, nothing actually would be better. :)

jp — exactly.

Star Wars series died when he trotted out the dancing and singing Ewoks. We have 2 3/4 good movies.

Hopefully these will be better than the Ewok Adventure.

Don’t hate. This is great news. There is always room for more Star Wars . . .

The only thing good to come out of the Star Wars prequel trilogy was the Clone Wars cartoons. (Seriously, they have more action, pathos, and energy than all three of the movies put together.)
