I'm honestly convinced that Star Wars: The Last Jedi will not only be the best of the Disney resurgence, but could even be the best Star Wars movie out of all. Rian Johnson is a good writer, and it looks as though the false dichotomy within the force could get deconstructed in a grand statement of duality.

Or maybe not. We'll see.

Dan, I am not sure where to post this, but I would like some guidance on how to resolve some issues with a live poll. This poll went live on May the Fourth Be with You 2016 before the first of the new 'Star Wars' movies debuted. Live Poll: 'Star Wars' You Most Want to See I have updated the poll twice as new Star Wars information has come to light over the past year and half.

The poll needs to be updated to reflect the changing landscape of post-Lucas 'Star Wars' projects at LucasFilm. Furthermore, the poll needs to resolve the issue of scant details and image availability for in-development projects. Lastly, the poll needs to be future proofed  so as titles move from development to reality, they are still applicable as answer options (Rogue One (2016) and Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017)). 

How should I address these issues in this existing poll to make it and keep it relevant going forward? Any insight would be appreciated, I have listed a few ideas below. Please, advise.

The following are the most recent breaking 'Star Wars' big development news stories.

Disney has been developing several standalone pics with the goal of keeping fans buying tickets while they wait for the next episodes in the main new trilogy. “Rogue One” was the first of the standalones, and Disney is currently shooting an untitled origin tale of beloved smuggler Han Solo. Some of the other standalones in development include a Jabba the Hutt story and a Boba Fett movie.

Prospective Revisions

Movie Premiere: 16 December 2016

Rebels on a mission to steal the plans to Death Star

Dan Dassow, Champion

urbanemovies,

You've given this a lot more thought that I have. These are my initial reactions, which are subject to change.

A. This is a good poll. We should tread carefully so that we do not damage it.

B. There comes a point where updating an existing poll may change the original intent of the poll. I do believe we've reached that point with this poll.

C.

1) Updated title with a 'Sans Lucas' preface to resolve issue of two first titles having premiered and emphasize that the scope of poll is really Star Wars projects after Disney's purchase of LucasFilm.

If I understand you correctly, you are suggesting updating the title to the following to reflect that this excludes Lucas.

Sans Lucas 'Star Wars' You Most Want to See

That title is probably OK. I'm wondering whether this alternative may be better.

Post Lucas 'Star Wars' You Most Want to See

One difficulty is that Lucas has not entirely divorce himself from Star Wars despite selling the franchise to Disney.

D.

2) Updated Disney in development introduction to current February 2018 information
3) Future proof and clarify premise of the question: Which past, upcoming or prospective Star Wars live-action installment are you the most excited about that is a post George Lucas creation?
4) Add recently announced Star Wars upcoming projects #7 through #13, reformat answer options, and add key personnel notes for comparison and to drive excitement level when scant details are available about the project.
5) Replace images #3 Solo: A Star Wars Story, #4 J.J. Abrams, #6 Simon Kinberg
to show either a standardized official poster or driving force person behind the project to eliminate confusing title tags from other Star Wars titles on answer options.

My first reaction is that these are reasonable updates.

I would like to get the reaction of the other admins and poll authors, and give this more thought before I give you a definitive answer

Thanks, the tweaks I would suggest based on your initial thoughts is to put more focus on the Disney acquisition.Thus, averting any issue regarding the level of George Lucas' involvement. ie Which past, upcoming or prospective Star Wars live-action installment are you most excited about that is a Disney Lucasfilm creation?

I like the title suggestion, Post Lucas 'Star Wars' You Most Want to See. An alternative could be Disney-Produced 'Star Wars' You Most Want to See. I share your concern for the need to tread lightly, yet have equal concerns the poll will become more broken as time wears on. No rush, let me know any other thoughts you may have.

urbanemovies,

I do not understand why you have this as your 15th choice in your update:
https://www.imdb.com/list/ls031426423/mediaviewer/rm3543432960
Anna and the Apocalypse

This choice also doesn't have description unlike the other choices.

I was hoping that others would discuss this update. There hasn't been much discussion.

Otherwise, this is probably OK.

I don't think there is any way to truly make the poll current, and it may be better to close polls like this when they become outdated.

However, another update won't hurt -- though I do think it looks somewhat labored.

The Mandalorian’: Pedro Pascal to Play Lead in New ‘Star Wars’ TV Series
Variety is reporting that “Game of Thrones” and “Narcos” alum Pedro Pascal will be the lead of the upcoming “The Mandalorian” series, which will follow the exploits of a bounty hunter (not named Boba or Jango).

Details surrounding Pascal’s character are not yet known, but series shepherd Jon Favreau has indicated that the show will take place in between the “Star Wars” installments “Return of the Jedi” and “The Force Awakens.”

‘Star Wars’ Live Action Streaming Series to Star Diego Luna

Diego Luna will star in a new “Star Wars” series for Disney’s new streaming service, Disney+. The show will be a prequel to “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.”Luna will reprise his role as Andor, a Rebel Alliance captain in the Untitled Rogue One prequel Space Opera series. The Untitled Star Wars Cassian Andor series starring Diego Luna and Alan Tudyk as Cassian Andor and K-2SO is planned to premiere in 2021.

Alan Tudyk to Return as K-2SO in Cassian Andor Live-Action Series

I like Christopher lee as Count Dooku and Peter Cushing as Grand Moff Tarkin.

I used to like "STAR WARS", but I have a strong contempt for the Disney corporates, along with the even stronger stupidity of George Lucas who foolishly sold his Lucasfilm Ltd in 2012 to these Disney scumbags, and HE doesn't like where Disney has taken the franchise, and that's just Too Bad, Lucas-you should've seen this coming! now, 20th Century Fox, which originally released the Star Wars saga in 1977, is now the latest corporately consolidated conquest of those rat bastards at Disney, and their streaming service or their new prostituted Star Wars franchise that "IRON MAN" director-actor Jon Favreau created called "THE MANDALORIAN" which will not be something that I'll be paying to watch anytime soon! I hope Disney and its House of Rat taste serious financial loss over pushing the STAR WARS franchise way, too far ahead of itself, but George Lucas I don't feel sorry for since the Four Billion dollars that he got paid off for his franchise by these Disney rodents is now totally beyond his control! but 20th Century Fox did not deserve to have it's near 90-year history  and its legacy to fall into the hands of greedy corporate rodents, any more than the tarnish and shame that they have put on the historic works of the real Walt Disney, who'd be rolling in his grave if he saw what these corporate people have done to his empire!

Comment: This most anticipated 'Star Wars' poll has outlived its usefulness with five options having debuted already and three others being cancelled or in limbo. My preference is for poll deletion, but that doesn't seem like an option at the moment. Therefore, I am adding three recently announced Star Wars projects to the single existing upcoming answer option to make the best of it.
