[QUOTE="bosk70, post: 498473, member: 5890"] I found ep7&8 more watchable than ep1,2,&3 for all the reasons mentioned in previous threads but I sometimes think to myself, if I was the director / writer for ep 7 at the beginning having access to most of the original actors, could I have formulated a story that would recapture the magic of A New Hope and Empire, its a difficult question, but with access to all the paperbacks / comics, dark empire material etc I think so. But as usual with big budget films, they worry about recouping the production costs and I think that always limits the risks with story that they are willing to take. When Lucas made Star Wars and Empire (with a big nod to Irvin Kershner) it was a risk and I think that showed in their popularity and quality not so much with all the other offerings since, not to say I don't enjoy some of them. I have read the Star wars comics all my life and there was some good story idea's in the early Dark Horse / Marvel comics / novals shame a lot of it was unused apart from the occasional fan reference to try and keep the long time fans happy [/QUOTE]
