Disney thinking of remaking Star Wars prequels ?

I have seen a few rumors saying after Rogue One they are actually thinking about it!

Pure rumors though nothing big confirmed but.....

If Disney came out and said they were going to remake the Prequels, would you welcome this and if so what things would you want changing if any ?

Why do people always ask about the worst rumors

@djudgment: By that they ment stories before Episodes 1-3. Disney has anonced a Star War movie each year up to 2030. So I don't see why not more prequels.

Why is it the worst rumors because truthfully Episode 2 and 3 were very bad.

@jb681131: Ohh is see, a possible Old Republic touch would be nice to see actually, maybe a bit too far back for them.

I'd love to see it happen tbh, really did not enjoy the prequels at all, the fighting side was great but other than that, it lacked everything else and the portrayal of Anakin Skywalker was worst off, the guy is supposed to be the chosen, and just looked like a complete jobber most of the time.

@kgb725: Quite simply don't comment on it then.

Remake the Original Trilogy instead.

Those movies are incredibly boring after watching the prequels.

While I can't say that I blame them for wanting to do it, best just leave that Hell alone and move on. I'd rather them not open that closed wound.

Hell no. Don't reboot the prequels.

I would like to see a deeper live action backstory with Mace Windu and Yoda also I'd like to see where Palpatine comes from

Bad idea. Very bad idea.

Oh the kids these days...

No, TFA is way worse than any of the prequels

Remake Rogue One first, that was awful.

Sorry just joining the hate train.

Seriously thought how is phantom menance not the worst movie out of them. Unless you include, oh noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Remake of the Star Wars Christmas special.

They're not remaking the prequels and they won't remake the original trilogy. Will they make more movies that take place before A New Hope? Certainly. Could they make movies that take place during or prior to the prequels? Absolutely. They might even make some films that fit between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. Hell, I'd be interested in seeing a movie that takes place between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. They have a lot of room to play around in, but they won't be undoing anything that George has already established. There are too many kids who like the prequels and too many of us fogies who consider the original trilogy as a sacred part of our childhood.

3 was the good one!

@jonez_: 3 was just lots of fighting where you didn't see very well what was happening. A poor transition to the Dark Side. An a pretty simple and pointless story. I don't see anything good in this movie.

I have no words. No words at all.

NO REMAKING ANYTHING! LEAVE IT BE! FOCUS ON NEW PROJECTS YOU FREAKING MOUSE!

Should leave them alone.

Stupid rumor.

The prequels, despite their flaws, should never be remade. One of the great things about Star Wars is that it's a franchise that's survived so long without reboots or remakes. Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, most of the major fantasy/sci-fi franchises have been rebooted or remade (well, except Doctor Who). But not Star Wars. Remaking the prequels would certainly make them better, but at the same time it would take away something that makes Star Wars so different and unique.

@cr500: The lord of the rings has never, ever been rebooted dude.

@jardinain2: I never said that all the franchises I listed were rebooted. I said they were either rebooted or remade, and in the case of LotR referring to all the films that came before Jackson's trilogy.

@cr500: There were LotR movies before Jackson's trilogy?

They won't do it. Although I'm still nervous about the fact that Disney is gonna milk Star Wars dry. Star Wars will feel less and less special as these movies go on and on....and on. But that's just my opinion

Just fix them in the books

What's the point of remaking the prequels if they are in the same continuity with other movies? Remaking them will create confusion.

Disney should just make more Star Wars movies. No reboot, remake, or whatsoever.

This whole thing with the prequels is just stupid...like jeez people just because they might be bad to some doesn't mean others don't like them as they are.

They should just be left as they are and people gotta stop acting like the sky is falling just because they were made.

@jao48: Yeah, there were a few animated films in the 70s or 80s. I don't know that much about them, but I know they exist.

Eh, 3 wasn't all that bad. 1 and 2 were awful. The romance scenes in 2 were so painful that I have blocked out most of my memory of it.

So long as they keep Ewan as obi, I don't care.

Rather have the Mando wars personally.

^^^ this....

^ other than ESB, I agree about ANH and RotJ.

I can only hope!

Doubtful. I wanted for the whole different story, no Skywalkers at all, different time, new characters... Mouse House? They dropped the ball and released Epic Fail 7, shortly after they release Forget One. They don't want to risk. Even now you can see plenty of fanatics that say Star Wars quality is undeniably better than say LOTR despite the fact that not a single SW movie can be considered truly well done and how many OT fans actually claim that it was masterpiece. *facepalm*

At this stage SW needs a hard reboot but we won't see it just like vastly different stories set in different times.

Glad to know i'm not the only one !!

Tbh i would love them to do more solo movies, a deeper look at Yoda would be great seeing what he was like all those years ago haha. But totally agree for more solo movies.

I can agree to that actually, i personally would like them re-made solely due to the poor acting we got, and in my opinion the poor way skywalker was shown, however i understand where you coming from and it does make sense.

@djudgment: indeed

This rumour sounds so unlikely that I wouldn't be surprised if OP simply made that up.
