: : i remember reading (back when ROTJ was released) that lucas has always had 9 parts in mind.
: Bullshit Bullshit Bullshit
: I've heard that before too. I don't believe for a SECOND that that's true.
: PLUS, When Episode 4 was in the theaters, I don't believe it had the "Episode 4" text yet...wasn't that added later when it was on video? I may be wrong about that part...
See here is where the facts get fuzzy. I think episode 4 was supposed to be episode 4 because the entire point was to tell the life story on aniken skywalker. I do not however believe that there was a trilogy of trilogys planned from the start
