Lucas announces IJ in front of 1,300 Star War Fans

As some of you may know there was a Star Wars marathon held in London where Lucas made a surprise appearance to 1,300 die-hard fans.

"To chants of "three more films" he [Lucas] said: "This is the tragedy of Darth Vader.

"It starts when he is 9 years old and ends when he is dead. There is no more story."

A chorus of boos rang out around the cinema but Lucas quickly won the fans back over, saying: "I'm working on the next Indiana Jones."

Flanked by a garrison of stormtroopers it was a remarkable finale to a remarkable day - and the fans had yet to see Revenge of the Sith."

So it's definite now.

Fantastic! Now lets hear him say the script doesn't need to be re-written!

I was thinking of starting a thread on this too, but I'm nearly a day too late...

That'd defintely be a crowd pleaser for me!

And people were saying it wouldn't happen. George never talks like this unless he is serious.

Yep, it's funny how opinions change in just a few months.

"Indy 4 will never happen"

Well there you have it...

And GL WILL make 3 more SW movies... Just give him a few years to get bored again.

Luisiana Jones · 05-18-2005, 01:19 PM

Totally agree jjkrogs just let him spend some of his money and hell want it back

I also read somewhere else in all this StarWars frenzy of articles, that he would start filming Indy in 2006....so I guess they're pretty damn close to having the script taken care of.

Wish I was a fly on the wall of Lucas' office
