I really love Star Wars! It’s my favorite movie series ever! Right up there with Toy Story, Harry Potter, Back to the Future, Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones, etc. I love having Star Wars marathons. I started getting into Star Wars "A Long Time Ago in a Galaxy Far, Far Away…"
About five years ago when Revenge of the Sith came out in theaters. It was THE BOMB! Since then, Star Wars was my favorite movie saga! And in that time I wanted a Star Wars VII – IX! I mean, Star Wars just seems too good to be only six chapters, or so I thought at the time. Then I learned there were novels, comics, games, etc. I read the Glove of Darth Vader series and it was good reading. I then wanted them to be adapted into movies. But then, three years later, when I got my Star Wars Insider, I learned that in the Expanded Universe, Chewbacca (gulp) died! ;(
It really ruined my weekend! I was so torn, one of my favorite SW characters croaks?!?!?!?! And if THAT wasn’t bad enough, I also learned that Sith can come back as ghosts, Luke Skywalker; A JEDI, gets married, Han and Leia’s son turns to the Dark Side, etc.!!!! I then realized: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE RETURN OF THE JEDI HAPPY ENDING?!?!?!?!?! So I thought; maybe Star Wars VII-IX isn’t so good anymore. And the books are Just. Plain. AWEFUL!!! Sometimes, not all the time, but sometimes when I read a Star Wars novel, I get a headache. I just feel like six movies are just enough for me. I mean, I’m okay if my friends like the EU, but I just like six movies. No novels, no games, no comics, no ANYTHING! But then again, some sequels would be nice…?
Here are my thoughts on SW 7-9:
Why there SHOULD be a VII – IX:
1. It would finally put those accursed novels out of canon!
2. George Lucas, the creator of Star Wars, keeps denying he’ll make sequels but he keeps adding The Clone Wars, a Live Action Series, etc. He’s even making Star Wars in 3-D! (I think that’s a cool idea, but still…) so if he keeps adding to Star Wars, WHY NOT MAKE SEQUELS?
3. I can finally see new Star Wars on the big screen like my parents!
4. Maybe then, people would get off George’s back for Jar Jar!
5. In Return of the Jedi, we learn that Leia is the extra hope for the Galaxy if Luke fails. But Luke succeeds and all Leia does is shoot two Stormtroopers! WHAT WAS THE POINT OF SAYING LEIA IS THE OTHER HOPE IF SHE DOESN’T DO ANYTHING? So, maybe the next trilogy could be about her training to be a Jedi, I mean she IS a Skywalker, isn’t she? And Star Wars IS the Skywalker story, so… maybe? (BTW I know she trains to be a Jedi in the books, but maybe they could do it a little differently.)
Now here’s why there should NOT be a 7-9:
1. It would ruin the ROTJ happy ending. And plus, after the Emperor got killed, Anakin got redeemed, Han and Leia became a couple, and Luke became a Jedi and saved the Galaxy all at once, there’s not much left to do.
2. The actors of the Original Trilogy are getting pretty old. I mean have you SEEN Harrison Ford?
3. If the fans already complained about the Prequels, I’d HATE to see what they’d say about the other trilogy!
Now here is what you’d might argue:
1. The novels say that there is a LOT to do after "Jedi". Yes, there’s that. So, maybe they could adapt the Thrawn trilogy? And then they could make a twist ending saying that there is nothing else that happened! 
2. The actors are getting pretty old. Well, maybe they could get new actors? Like how ’bout Leonardo DiCaprio as Luke Skywalker, Tom Hanks as Han Solo, Tina Fey as Princess Leia, etc. OR they could make an excuse for their age by going 30 years into the future!
3. Fans may complain, well George may not have to write the dialogue. I mean, maybe Christopher Nolan could write the dialogue, or Peter Jackson, or Steven Speilberg, or Irvin Kershner, of Francis Forcoppola, or… I could go on with this! I mean, my point is, George can just write the story, and one of his buddies could write the dialogue.
Okay, that being said, I got something to ask YOU! Do YOU think there should be a Star Wars VII-IX? Should George Lucas make it up to the fans for the prequels and the Clone Wars movie? Just let me know. Thanks!
ps Do I have to accept the EU as fact? I mean, I’m okay if YOU like it, but for me, six movies and occasionally the Clone Wars micro-series is enough! So, can I just say that they all lived happily ever after?
pss What is the deal with most people hating Jar Jar? I mean, sure he’s clumsy, and yeah he gave Palpatine emergency powers. but ya gotta admit he’s pretty funny! 
psss May The Force Be With You… Always!
