Don’t Count Out A Force Unleashed Motion Picture
8:00PM Brian Ashcraft | The Force Unleashed the movie? “Not impossible” says the game’s project lead Haden Blackman. Already getting a comic book and a novel tie-in, The Force Unleashed is set between Episode III and Episode IV and follows Darth Vader’s secret apprentice as he hunts down Jedi. About the chance of a Force Unleashed flick: Never say never. George [Lucas] has looked to tell new Star Wars stories through the games and with the entire Star Wars Expanded Universe, and then he has also shown a willingness to let the characters come into the films. Kinda wish they would’ve made The Force Unleashed as the third movie, Episode III as the second movie and Episode II as the first movie. Episode I could’ve done with a good shitcanning.

Is it wise to actually go around and tell people that? Pssst, we consulted with George Lucas for this game. That’s right, the George Lucas that turned the Force from a mystic energy into some cell-based midichlorian-communicating mumbo jumbo. And the same George Lucas who let stormtroopers kill Jedi\. Certainly there are oodles of smart, talented people at LucasArts. Let’s play up those folks, ‘mkay? Star Wars lives on through games [Reuters] More »
