No one cares about that stupid fucking STAR WARS movie, let alone a bunch of Lucas approved sycophants. I promise you this, not even Lucas himself is interested in the "Expanded Universe". The nerdz have a word for it.
Kevin Smith is so above this it is pointless to discuss his invlovement in any future STAR WARS project.
STAR WARS sucks, Kevin Smith rules.
: : I know Kevin has a 2 year contract with Marvel but I think following that it would be interesting to see graphic novels for episode 7-9 in Kevins words. Possible?
: 7-9 has already been written by Timothy Zahn worked with by lucas and devloped. It would take Kev working with both artists to do a comic that would fully capture the Lucas and Zahn universe(possibly). There may be a 7-9 movie series made but Lucas will not make them. He will wright it and possibaly exec produce with mccaullum(all speculation). But Lucas has already said he will not spend the rest of his life making star wars movies. But I can see him turning the story over to a man that could carry on the vision and hold it true(Kevin Smith).
