Brazilian Star Wars Fans Starts Petition For George Lucas To Direct Episode IX

Quote:

Star Wars fan Yuri Luiz of Sao Paolo, Brazil has started a petition on Change.org to get Colin Trevorrow replaced as director of Star Wars: Episode IX with George Lucas. The film is set to be released in 2019. Lucas will be 74 then. He previously stated he wasn’t interested in working on any of the new movies.

Luiz wrote: “We have no problem with Colin Trevorrow, but he’s not the right guy to direct Star Wars Episode IX. George Lucas as director of Episode IX would be the perfect way to end this new trilogy and make an epic farewell between the father of Star Wars and the whole universe of the galaxy far, far away … ”

The petition currently has 6,491 supporters.
If Lucas knows about this, he's probably drooling with excitement over the fact that people actually want him to do another after how they bashed the prequels.

No. No no no. Heck no.

These petitions don't even work.

Would'nt mind him. At least we'd get originality, in good and bad doses.

I'd rather eat a Bantha penis.

I'd rather just get good doses.

Lucas needs to stay away from these new films. I respect him for what he started, but his time is done. Let the new kids take the reins.

If you're a fan of the prequels and don't give a damn of the first trilogy, then maybe. But come on, Lucas only directed New Hope of the OT and even then he had a lot of help and input from others.

The guy's a mess on his own, the comic adaptation of his Star Wars draft is proof of that.

I'm a little torn. On the one hand, I'm not too thrilled to have the hack from Jurassic world...(sorry, THAT was a **** film) on the other, the prequels.

It's the fanboy in me, but dammit, I'll say it anyway...

David Fincher.

Never gonna happen, but it would be amazing.

No way, keep him away as he has retired you know and keep him away from screenplay writing as the writing in the prequels were terrible when he should had hired a proper writer.

Like the dialogue in Force Awakens was any better...

So, wait...is it the cool thing now to retroactively think the prequels were anything but dog sh*t? Are people actually convincing themselves of that now?

Oh, autistic Internet man-children, never change.

The prequels had their moments. But they were all overshadowed by the looming BS that came attached with each film.

It certainly is.

Probably more of a "grass is greener" syndrome taken to the extreme in usual internet style.

The prequels were horrible. Not for nothing, but this is how the "Superman 78 is terrible" thing started. Same situation.

This Petition ain't gonna change anything, this is just a fan that didn't like The Force Awakens for borrowing from A New Hope.

I'm not fully following this logic. Lucas created A New Hope so if they didn't like Force Awakens wouldn't it be bad for him to make a new one? :D

Maybe they got a better translation in Brazil?

Some of these so called fans were expecting something completely different, and they complain cause of some of the retreads.

As long as there is a competent writer on board and producers not being his "yes man" like McCullum was in the prequels then I'd be fine with this. Honestly I'd be fine with almost anyone over Trevorrow. Still can't believe they hired him.
