   George Lucas has repeatedly said that the movie Saga *as a whole* is   
   the story of Anakin Skywalker. Anakin is dead and redeemed, the movie   
   Saga IS over with six episodes.   
      
   Even if there were this mythical third trilogy, why would George Lucas   
   bother - many of you fools simply whine and complain about everything   
   he does wrong.    :-\   
      
   If I was George Lucas I would have shut down the entire Star Wars   
   franchise after the all the complaining about Episode I and told you   
   all to bugger off.

   Again, George Lucas has said repeatedly that there is NO "third   
   trilogy", there is no need for a third trilogy in the movie Saga's   
   story and there will be NO more episodes in the movie Saga.   
      
   What happens with the franchise as a whole is a completely different   
   question - there are already TV shows coming and there may well be   
   other SPIN-OFF movies, but they will not be episodes of the movie Saga.   
   They'll simply be movies set in the Star wars universe, just like the   
   Ewok movies are.

   I'm simply telling you the FACTS as we know them. It's your problem if   
   you don't like those facts (maybe you should live in fantasyland with   
   morons like StupidShadow), but there's little you can do about it -   
   George Lucas is the one in charge of his franchise.
