Top Ten Reasons to Have a New Trilogy

So there are the rumors going around that Lucas is working on a new trilogy, and of note, it would involve original characters. Rumors of Luke, Han, and Leia running around all grey haired and wondrous. So, is it a good idea? Sure! And here they are, the top ten reasons why we should be eager to have a New Star Wars Trilogy.

10. We'll get to see if Luke successfully moves from young and whiney to old and crotchey. That's character development.

9. More Poodoo jokes! Um, er something like that.

8. As Lucas has no problem ignoring EU canon, we might actually have Mara Jade returned to us, and everything from "Legacy of the Force" onwards can just be a bad, bad cave visit for Jacen Solo.

7. It might keep Lucas from helping Spielberg do any more damage to the Indiana Jones series.

6. We could pretend that Han simply doesn't "remember" shooting first because of the onset of dementia.

5. Maybe the plot will involve the total destruction of Mandalorian culture... oh, wait, that's already happened.

4. As Carrie Fisher has Hollywood Street-cred as a writer, she would be able to smack Lucas around when he writes just horrid lines - and he might listen.

3. It will bankroll the TV series. . . sure it will.

2. Maybe a really good looking Jaina will find her mom's old outfits? New generations of single males could be made life long fans.

1. Dude, it's Star Wars on the big screen. There would be lightsabers and Han - we'd go.
