Thank you for bringing me back to my Saturday mornings of a decade ago.

I though it would have been nostalgic for you.
How old were you in 1977?

Since Star Wars decided to go "cute" at the midpoint of Return of the Jedi with the stupid Ewoks, the franchise has lost all interest for me.
I had high hopes with The Phantom Menace, and recieved Jar Jar and cartoon droids in return. In Attach of the Clones, we got non intriguing political "intrigue". Ad nausium.
Finally, the last one decided to open with even cuter attack droids, and some of the worst dialogue ever written between supposed "love" interests.
The series completely crapped the bed after the primary writer died shortly after the release of The Empire Strikes Back. Normally I would give something like this a chance, but the last three and a half movies were so terrible, I'm am giving it a major pass.

I'll wind up seeing it. I'm a sucker for anything Star Wars.
Has there been any news lately on the live action tv series? All I know is that they are going to make one.

I don't know, this doesn't seem very encouraging.

So are there any Star Wars fans left or will this cartoon thing make the rest turn away from the franchise?

The party’s over guys. The only one’s left here are the folks who haven’t realized it yet. I’m sure the Star wars fan forums are going to be aflutter with the revelations that Dooku once fought Anakin or that Anakin actually once went back to Tatooine, or that Jabba has an Uncle that - unlike other Hutt’s - sounds like a bad New Orleans piano player. But for the rest of us? This is just another episode in a long line of attempts to charge you for something you loved as a kid. I mean honestly, how much would we be giving Coppola if he had greenlit The Further Adventures of the Corleone’s? Because that’s what this is.

Yeah the reviews I read from advance screenings weren't very positive.
Maybe The Force Unleashed will be good.

Totally agree. Star wars is dead to me. No desire to watch these cartoons whatsoever.

I suggest you catch some of the comando cartoons on cartoon network of some elite stromtropper units. Its very descent.
Also, how can any series be dead when you can add something from the following to your phone message and not considered to be a 100% nerd, sure 50+ but not 100%.

A buddy of mine dragged me out to see this tonight, and damn, it was worse than even I expected.
If you really want to watch it, just download it. Trust me.

It was awful.
I got to see it at the screening so thankfully i didn't waste any money on it.
You know its bad when the movie is 90 mins and it feels like 3 hrs (think complete opposite of The Dark Night)
Awful movie, only kids would like it, and even then I think they would be "meh" at best.
