NEWS: Kevin Smith to Do 'Star Wars' TV Show?

usually. the hangovers are a bitch, though.

i can't see Han Solo and Princess Leia argueing over how many dicks Leia has sucked

If anyone actually listens to his dialoge he is an incredably smart man and behind all the dick and fart jokes is a man that can right very well ( read some of the comics hes done no dick and fart jokes there) He has said that the only reason he does movies like that is becouse its what people wanna hear. Make money first get a following then do what ever you want.

sorry for the spelling mistakes

P.S he is also stated that he is done meaking jay and silent bob movies becouse he doesnt want to be type cast as someone that can only do that. (although there is talk that he promised jason mewes ( jay for those of u that dont know) that if he cleaned up his act and straightened out they would make one more )

Well, I'm glad he could lower himself to make such cinematic ass like ''Chasing Amy'' and ''Jay and Silent Bob" just so he could make whatever he wanted.

Sadly, that was Jersey Girl.

Good job, Kevin Smith. Your serious, sincere movies are worse than your masturbatory, self indulgent ones.

you seem like a nice guy, but it is my civic duty to inform you that you have no idea what you're talking about. have a good day.

i never found anything he ever did to be funny or entertaining. so he if just makes movies because hes a whore to public opinion than most people are dumb

Though in months old news.....Jay and Silent Bob are appearing in 3 episodes of some Canadian show, and Clerks 2 starts filming next month, OH and the animated Clerks movie is out next year, and Smith has said he wants to do "ONE MORE" Jay and Bob centered adventure.

So....in even older news....Kevin Smith can only rely on those two cashcows for attention, so it's not a suprise that they're back. His stuff is funny, but he's just lame.

Never been a star wars fan. This will either get me interested ... or make me dislike kevin smith

i just can't see this going in much of a really good direction. i don't know. seems wrong somehow.

THIRTY SEVEN?!

"oh, i forgot about chewie. make it thirty eight. unless a wookee counts for two.."

To all you SGs that like starwars:

Marry me.

i think this has a definate chance of kicking ass, and making a good name for star wars... but i'll be watching it with a grain of salt.

sorry lostarchitect, but NiMiiPuu actually does know what he's talking about. Well, sort of. Kevin Smith is an intelligent man. I remember watching him on a talk show called Politically Incorrect and he said several thought inspiring comments. It was a little hard to take him seriously, because all the guests were in suits and the like, but he was in knee-high jeans and a sweatshirt, and constantly had his hands in the pockets of the sweatshirt. He does make movies that the masses like. The movies have grossed several million each and have grossed more than they cost (in Hollywood, a movie that makes $1.00 more than it cost is considered a successful movie. In other words Alexander was a total flop in comparison).

I saw the stage show in Cleveland. It was pretty good.

Kevin actually fights that point pretty often at the View Askew boards. In the 70s and 80s, yea-a big or moderate budget flick that didnt exceed it's production cost in profit was a flop, but in the day of DVD and quick to-home-video options, it's tough for a mid to high budget movie not to at least break even....and that's not even counting foreign gross. So, for example, while Jersey Girl domestically may not have exceeded it's production cost, add in overseas and then DVD and video....profit city.

i second whoever said TALES OF THE JEDI. it doesn't really have to adapt those characters necessarily, it could be like the knights of the old republic video games, character/situation wise.

just no super-weapons, please.

i wouldn't mind an X-WING series either, i enjoyed those books extremely back in high school.

they have a huge timeline to work with, plenty of alien species and planets and situations and no matter how bad it is, i will still check it out.

if they're talking about having Luke around, my guess is that they're going for a post thrawn trilogy/dark empire series jedi academy thing. which wouldn't be bad either, considering that there's some cool characters to be found there, zekk, tenel ka, lowbacca (yeah yeah), kam solusar, kyp durron, corran horn, the solo kids (depends on who writes them, either they're cool or they're flat out goody goody dorks), etc.

this reminds me i haven't read a star wars book in years. i never finished or kept up to date with the new jedi order series.

I think what Kevin Smith has really done to benefit society is to prove what self-important jackasses all film buffs are!

okay now i can see it LOL

You guys that say Kevin Smith has no talent should go out and watch Chasing Amy. If you do not think he has talent then you must not be able to understand the social commentary that this movie is. I would put it along the same line as American History X as a social comment.

Besides that get the special version of Dogma and watch the Fat Albert deleted scene. It is about the most hilarious thing I have ever seen.

Vici

I don't think there's anything in the world more laughably sad than having litmus tests for taste.

The only unwritten rule smart people need: De gustibus non disputandum est.

I have no comment of any relevance to make concerning this Topic, other to say that KOTOR II rocks my lightsaber.

Ah, Latin. The last bastion of pretension for intellectuals.

Please... the wells of my pretension run far deeper than that.
