I wonder how much the actors will be paid if they take the rolls. Didn't they relatively get the shaft for the originals?

Yeah... Carrie Fisher once said everytime she looked in the mirror she had to pay Lucas for looking like Princess Leia

I'm pretty sure all snacks are included in their salaries.

They will be paid 1 pound of butter each to use with them.

Good question. I wonder if they'll negotiate for a piece of the merchandising this time around.

These movies are so far off from now there will be casting rumors circulating from everyone who claims to have a stake in either the script writing process to the pre-production. And I can remember the craziness surrounding the run-up to Episode I....and the let down that followed. More Jar Jar anyone???

With the amount of training time Hamill and Fisher may need to be able to play sword welding Jedi Knights i'd expect them to be announced early next year. If you remember it took McGregor and Christensen 6 months training (3 months basic training, 3 months to rehearse their duel) and they're much younger.

Entirely different though. The lightsaber fights in the PT were a completely different/faster style than those of the OT.

So, we had the OT. Then came the PT. Have we figured out what to call the new ones? Is it ST for sequel trilogy?

Meh, Abrams and his lame Khan surprise.

Although still not as lame as Talia Ras al Bane.

I couldn't care less who the villain is. As long as it's fun as hell.
