Disney has done a bad job with Star Wars. Maybe Disney could make this show happen as redemption

[@johnaraya3761]

@@OctavianKaijage what disney needs to do is show the seth green show he made, that CG comedy. its full done like a full season with i believe more then 35 episodes. now that would bring back hardcore fan even for a lil bit do to it never being released

I’m kinda sad that Star Wars Underworld Never Happened.

[@ellisalinea4777]

This series had so much potential

[@Quirkywatch]

An HBO level drama based in the criminal underworld would be so cool.

[@Omar-wq9dz]

The Force Unleashed video games were also set between the prequel and original trilogies. The stories in them were good, but a 3rd game was cancelled which left the story on a cliffhanger

[@bensneb360]

@@Bulletsandblockbusters can you give the unproduced sequel to the mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie from 2017?

[@indianajones4321]

I remember seeing a lot of concept art and some of the unaired footage for the show. It looked absolutely fantastic and is probably the best Star Wars show that we never got. The Taliban inspiration for Saw Gerrera was interesting, from what I’ve read he was originally named “Castro” and based on the Cuban Revolutionary. Anyway, Star Wars “What Could Have Been” are some of my favorite of your videos and I was wondering, is there any concepts or plots about how George Lucas would’ve written a Flash Gordon movie like he wanted to before creating Star Wars?

[@rorylennon4043]

I can’t believe we got Acolyte but not this 😭

[@Omar-wq9dz]

To credit George Lucas, even though this show didn’t happen, he actually got stuff made from movies, tv, and video games without any major problems behind the scenes. Kathleen Kennedy is struggling to get stuff made

Is that why we didn’t have a movie from him in almost 20 years lol.

Welcome back from a well deserved break. I remember hearing about this show, definitely would have been a cool show.

[@Bulletsandblockbusters]

Thanks!

[@theantone7476]

I remember reading articles about this online as a child and got so excited especially with the plotline on The Emperor being betrayed. The whole premise for the series sounds amazing and wished we got that instead of all the crappy Disney shows

[@Name-cp7oh]

I always thought Coruscant had so much potential

[@DallySkyeAnims]

It always baffles me why we never get a game or tv show set in Coruscant. Is it too expensive to make the backgrounds more than a few minutes? I absolutely love the amazing cyberpunk backgrounds with various layers to it.

[@rocketdude2969]

WOW...that sounds like it would have amazing. The story sounds great and the characters also . I'm not sure about the music part of it , but the rest sounded like it would have kept star wars going for years .

[@beagleboi1442]

This is odd I used to grow up with the idea that Clones were always Storm Troopers thinking Disney changed it. But now that I think about it maybe it was always meant to be separate if Lucas already wanted to do this with Underworld.

[@TwinRiver100]

This series sounded great. I would've loved this Definitely super expensive and maybe a little beyond what i think he could afford. I think Lucas kind of got lucky with the rights thing the first time around with Star Wars with the toys. I think the higher ups didnt think it'd be as big as it would end up being. But since becoming as big as it did but needing a bigger studio to finance it and at the same time wanting to maintain the rights and stuff, i guess something had to give. Thanks for making the video. Love the concept art clips.

[@MarkyMatey]

The idea was simply ahead of its time. This show would thrive in today's TV landscape

[@johnwells5414]

I would love to see a Star Wars western with a gang at the center. Sort of a Red Dead Redemption 2 in space

[@tyrannozilla]

The one thing I disagree with for Underworld was giving Palpatine a bitchy girlfriend and making him more sympathetic. To me, it would've taken away from the villainy of the Emperor and wouldn't have made sense in the long run. Hopefully, they would've taken that out had the series entered production. Another problem I have with Underworld is that it sounded like it would've re-conned most of the original expanded universe, which had plenty of stories that filled the gap between episodes 3 and 4. If they made it that there was gonna be new stories that didn't interfere with the EU, then that would've been fine, but I'm not sure that that was the plan. Still, I would've been curious enough to give the series a chance, because while Lucas was aiming for a much darker approach, at least he still knew how Star Wars is supposed to feel and would've been loyal to the aesthetics he created, while also adding to it (unlike Andor, which completely ignores Lucas' aesthetics and felt more like a Galactica rip-off).

[@SepRoyle]

That sounds awesome fantastic series 😀 😊❤

[@NicolasFranco-g4v]

I was actually going to request this on twitter lol

[@GeneralKenobi6000]

[@A21-EDITS21]

Might nor happen but would be cool tk see something like underworld after Andor is done. Since we saw Coruscant in the show.

[@orangeechofilms]

Its unfortunate that his never got made, but The Bad Batch, Rebels, Jedi video games, Solo, and Andor have somewhat filled the void.

[@chrisj617]

Instead, we ended up with a half-show about Boba Fett as a crime boss who didn't want to be a crime boss. Oy.

[@toby885]

The Jedi survivor games, Bad Batch, Rogue One, Andor were all products of the ideas that George brought to us Thank you George

[@Name-cp7oh]

"Hey, we should make another spinoff." "Are you thinking what I’m thinking?" "Make it happen between III and IV? Oh yeah."

[@John-ns5se]

Not getting this show and Star Wars 1313 is perhaps the biggest fumble in Star Wars history

[@MatthewK122]

I wish George would have finished this series and didn't sell Star Wars to Disney

[@numberjuan469]

he sold it. get over it.

[@johnpittsii7524]

If only Lucas had held on just a bit longer to his vision and for technology to catch up.

[@Thegoldenturtle2843]

Hey Bullets & Blockbusters. It's great to see your videos again. Keep doing the great work! Since you just talked about "Star Wars: Underworld," I wonder if you can do other canceled Star Wars projects. It will be great if you do another video that covers on "Boba Fett: A Star Wars Story." I have some suggestions that I would like to share with you. I'm really excited for "Daredevil: Born Again" to come out next year. So I wonder if you will work on those canceled Daredevil and Punisher films? Do you think that you can also include: - 1970's Angela Bowie's "Daredevil and the Black Widow" TV series - 1980's ABC's "Daredevil" TV series with screenwriter Stirling Silliphant - 2000's Fox's "The Punisher" TV series with executive producer Edward Bernero One last I want to ask is that, since you talked about Toy Story and Pixar, I wonder if you can do some videos that cover some canceled Disney animated film and television projects? I want to share a list with you for another comment. Well then, I hope to see more videos from you. Take care.

[@Skaiser_Wilhelm7938]

I don't think Lucas deserves most of the hate he gets. It seems like after the prequels, everyone just focused on his failures rather than his achievements. Say what you will about the man, but he was a visionary first and foremost. The fact he came up with the idea of a live-action Star Wars show 15 years before one was eventually made should be enough to tell you he was ahead of his time. So I want to take a minute to say thank you, George Lucas! You created dreams we still cherish today. 👏

[@justinrgray4979]

There’s still a chance to save Star Wars. A revisit to this project would help

[@mikegamerofsparta]

It was far to expensive even back in 2010 George had the rights today he probably would have make it that footage was something.

[@themanhimself6620]

So essentially, what Star Wars outlaws and the Lando TV show were supposed to be about. (Plus, the skeleton crew that isn't out yet, so we'll see how that goes)

[@StuartLugsden]

Recently that I realised that the reason George had his mind set on this is because of his sequel trilogy which would have involved Maul becoming the godfather of crime and filling in the power vacuum left behind after the Empires ultimate collapse galactic wide. This could have a prologue or tie in or sort. In fact almost everything from George's ST was recycled in some for expect Talon and the Whills microbiotic world.

[@eddieblancher7557]

This show sounded awesome it would've been awesome to Han Solo because he doesn't appear much in any of the Star Wars shows.

[@benjaminguzman8645]

Can you do one for Kathryn Bigelow's planned X-Men movie which would've had Bob Haskins as Wolverine.

[@retromacman620]

The Palpatine back story sounds a bit like just "Some woman wronged me" so I'm not terribly sure I'd be that sympathetic 😂. Everything else actually sounds great! We're all wishing now that Lucas still had more control over the franchise, since Disney has done a pretty mediocre job taking over it. ❤ I'm glad they gave used some if these ideas, but wish Lucas would have had more input the entire time. I don't hate all that Disney has done, but it's been such an unguided mess.

[@keyseronthewire2575]

I remember seeing/hearing stuff about this show, and how cool it would've been... A gritty TV series grounded in the Coruscant underbelly, while jumping to other planets on occasion... Telling stories with unknowns and legacy characters alike... Seeing the clone transition etc... Imagine if George held on a bit longer and possibly got the opportunity to build that studio and gain/pioneer the necessary technology... We'd have an incredible TV series, we'd have a proper sequel trilogy of films... Great videogames like 1313... Oh what could've been. Disney has ruined Star Wars... Every time we see a new interview with George, he lets out more regret for it, even though he says he's moved on... You can see that he regrets it. He said Disney has lost the essence and magic of what Star Wars is, and the truth is, they never had it... They saw it as a money maker factory and didn't care about the legacy and lore that George created... Threw his treatments in the trash, "de-canonized" a plethora of content, then proceeded to cherry pick from said content and bastardize it... All while pushing woke messaging to the forefront of it all... Box-checking, factory filmmaking at its worst. Sad to see... Maybe one day with advancements in AI and independent filmmaking, we can see some of these stories fleshed out properly because apathy, distrust, and disgust is at an all-time high for Disney with their mishandling of the franchise that was once so beloved by many... What was once arguably the greatest IP has now been reduced to a joke beaten with a stick so many times it's unrecognizable. Great video! I love seeing/hear more about what was and what could've been within the Star Wars galaxy. From the Obi-Wan trilogy to this.

Once again, George's greed did him in by not cutting a deal with any of the studios in a share of the profits. No wonder they all walked away. Too much risk for them and not enough ROI.

[@raulcruz716]

It shows that even back then Star Wars was no longer THE franchise if networks were passing on a Star Wars show which would have featured characters from the films, and main characters at that. Back in the 70s and 80s tv wanted whatever little piece of Star Wars Lucas would allow them resulting in the dreaded Star Wars holiday special, the two passably entertaining Ewok movies and the two animated shows EWOKS & DROIDS which had some rather good episodes. Now post Prequel trilogy every network is looking at Star Wars and saying " No thanks." So maybe the decline of Star Wars isn't totally Disney's fault.
