Headphone Jack 1,147 Posted January 20, 2016 episode IX will probably be delayed as well. that sucks because i was actually looking forward to it. oh well. either way it was coming out in 2017 and that's far enough away to make this change hardly noticeable in the grand scheme of things.

Lulcielid 159 Posted January 20, 2016 2 year wait??? This isn't fair There used to be a 3 years gaps between the Original Trillogy movies and the Prequel Trillogy movies, we can´t complain too much. 1 Trece the Xam ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheKingdomkid 1,194 Posted January 20, 2016 Well it was already planned to come out in 2017 so I'm ok with that heck I'm actually fine with it being out here so yeah lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aang 649 Posted January 20, 2016 I mean its not too big of a delay. It still shows how we'll be getting one new Star Wars title each year. In addition to the main and anthology movies, we're getting continuations and creations of TV shows, video games, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) You know, I actually don't mind having to wait until December! If the movie will end up even better because of the delay, then that's good! The main reason for this is because apparently, there's been a last minute rewrite of the script for Episode VIII, because apparently, Lucasfilm wants to emphasize on the characters introduced in The Force Awakens, to develop them more, ya know? Which can only mean that Episode VIII will be very interesting on the character development side! And I hope this means we'll have extended scenes with Luke training Rey in the ways of the Jedi! As for what this means for Episode IX, well, we'll cross that bridge when we get there! Edited January 21, 2016 by The Transcendent Key Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingdomHearts3 2,591 Posted January 21, 2016 I heard it was supposed to release in 2017 and episode IX releases in 2019. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nweintraub 630 Posted January 21, 2016 Well, it buys & gives me time to grieve Han Solo's unwanted, uncalled-for, yet sudden, instant, immediate, abrupt death that traumatized me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shulk 8,623 Posted January 21, 2016 Well, it buys & gives me time to grieve Han Solo's unwanted, uncalled-for, yet sudden, instant, immediate, abrupt death that traumatized me. First off, spoiler. Second, It's having an impact on Rey already, and Harrison Ford himself was the one who wanted it to happen. It's going to have an impact on the story. It's not killing him off for the sake of killing him off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nweintraub 630 Posted January 21, 2016 What THE hell do you mean, he wanted to bring it upon himself? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trece the Xam ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) 3,859 Posted January 21, 2016 What THE hell do you mean, he wanted to bring it upon himself? He means that the actor didn't want to act as Han Solo anymore. Also, if you expect Shulk to reply you, you should quote his post so he knows that you've replied to what he has said. 1 Shulk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nweintraub 630 Posted January 21, 2016 But when I try to quote it, it just comes out blank, meaning I get no quote. Same goes with trying to paste images. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shulk 8,623 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) What THE hell do you mean, he wanted to bring it upon himself? It was Ford's idea for Han Solo to die. He wanted Han to be killed back in ROTJ, but couldn't get that to work. He wanted an end for the character. If I remember correctly, he didn't want to be associated just with Han.
