What would you have preferred?

Imagine for a minute that the original trilogy weren't called IV/V/VI

Would you have preferred (one or the other) to have a trilogy of sequels or a trilogy of prequels?

Sequels to find out what happens after Luke becomes a fully fledged Jedi, the emperor is disposed of, and so on...

Or the prequels, to find out what happened before A New Hope

Neither if i'm being entirely honest. The OT would have been just fine on their own.

With the Emperor and Vader dead, I think it would be scraping the story barrel to get three films after Ep6. Having some new villain turn up would be kind of crap. If this was a wish though, I'd wish they hadn't tied everything up in ROTJ and saved the Emperor showdown until Ep9.

Possibly, but they would be like Alien:Ressurection. It wasn't awful but it was pointless. Just continuing the story for the sake of making more movies.

Some of the books are really good.... but unless they recast the main parts, i think the actors are a bit too old.... unless they jump to 'The New Jedi Order' books, but that would be a bit confusing if you were expecting direct sequels..... mind you 10 years beween Episode 1 and 2 is a big jump as

Go ahead 'Bobby', make my day...

No. Few of them are worth reading even.

Nothing wrong with that. I have read almost all of the books after RotJ. I am about 5 and a half books from getting back to the New Jedi Order now, and would love to see more sequels so I can compare to what I have seen in my mind reading the books.

The whole 9 parts should have been made in order.
