re: If knights of the old republic was a movie...

Heh, I think they should drop the numbering of the episodes. It makes prequels difficult to make. Also, it would be cool if Hollywood would be a little more open minded and see that a linear storyline isnt always nessesary.

*Spoilers*

For example, the original Star Wars movies held up on their own, they dont need the prequels they are making now since everything you need to know about the story is explained in the original trilogy. Another point I would like to bring up is the fact that anyone that Episodes 1,2&3 will contain a hell of a lot of spoilers for Episodes 4,5&6. I couldnt imagine the origional trilogy being as good as it was knowing throughout the movies that Darth Vader was Luke's father. I think by making Episodes 1,2&3 will kill the series for any furtre viewers.

Anyway, that said I think it would be a great idea to have more Star Wars movies. Personally they could keep making Star Wars movies for all of eternity, and I would watch every single one of them.

As far as KotOR becoming a movie, it would be cool, but I would be more interested in the Exar Kun and Mandalorian wars.

re: If knights of the old republic was a movie...

I agree on the mandalorian wars too. yeah but canderous and carth and soul and I think revan and malak played a role in that didnt they. and if they did they could tye that into kotor. im with you on the droping the numbers that way they can make more films. noow that I think of it wernt ep 1-6 tied to each other. if so then they could do almost the same thing with exur kun, revan and mandalore (and the rest I missed)

re: If knights of the old republic was a movie...

Well, I suppose you could make a long linear storyline, and I think they should use the same character in multiple movies. But I dont like the idea of following one character throughout a series of movies. So, what I am saying is that Carth may be a main character for one movie, but in another movie make a cameo, or have a battle scene in a movie alongside the main cast. Then you as the viewer could think "Hey, I know that guy!" This would also make it so that you dont have to watch them in order. I think its a very unconventional way of going about it, but thats what they do in books, so I dont see why it wouldnt work in the movies.

If they did make it a movie then they would have to add a whole bunch of stuff to it, since KOTOR hardly connected to any of the movies.

re: If knights of the old republic was a movie...

Actually if they made KotOR into a movie, it wouldnt connect to any of the movies, since it takes place about 4000 years before the forming of the Galactic Empire. But thats exactly what Im saying, they shouldnt try to make all their movies connect in one long linear storyline, but make the movies about various stories. And that way people wouldnt have to watch them in order, nor would they have to make them in order.

They come in sets of 3. Plus, you could still watch one movie by itself and not be totally comfused.

re: If knights of the old republic was a movie...

They only come out in sets of three beacuse the producer release them in sets of three. Plus with the origional movies labeled Episodes 4,5&6 I guess they felt obligated to make Episodes 1,2&3. But now that thats done, they are basically free to dump the episode labeling and create more films that are unique.

Yourself. You do know that the original plan was to release the movies in 3's, and they never felt 'obligated'. And now that 1,2,and 3 are done, there will be no more Star Wars movies. Lucas doesn't want to die and leave unfinished work.

SO THERE!!!!

Actually the origional plan was to never make episodes 1,2&3. But they made them anyway, and I dont she why it should stop there.

I can she why it should. G. Lucas would probably die b4 he could complete movies 7,8,and 9. And then you could be left hanging at episode 8.

re: If knights of the old republic was a movie...

To be honest, I couldn't care less if George Lucas died. I've never really thought of him as the director of Star Wars, but rather as the inventor, and the movies were never known for their great directing anyway. To reiterate what XDragon69 keeps saying, I don't really care about the plot lines of the movies. I'll see the next one, of course, but it won't have the same effect on me as, say, The Lord of the Rings, which has such an engrossing storyline that I went back and reread the books when the movies started coming out. I care much more about the history of the Star Wars universe than I do about some save-something-or-other-with-the-help-of-an-annoyi ng-and-racially-offensive-sidekick anyway.

re: If knights of the old republic was a movie...

I noticed dragon i think said something to the affect of "they could have carth as the main character in one movie, and make a cameo in another" well, that idea is good, but i dont think it would be likely to ever see carth as the main character, for he has no control of the force and he's not a jedi, it just wouldnt be the same, then it would just become any other sci-fi movie.
