Does anybody know anything about Star Wars: Underworld (TV series premiering in December, 2018)?

That is new to me. I have heard about plans for a lower levels Coruscant TV series, described as "Empire Strikes Back on steroids" or "Game of Thrones-ish". I don't know if those plans have led to this series.
It sounds interesting either way.

Hmmm, I just got to wondering if this is the series that will launch the upcoming Disney version of Netflix.

Disney doesn't need to launch anything for streaming.  They acquired Hulu when they bought out Fox.  So, all they have to do is start providing material to Hulu and they are done.

For so long, I've wished that we could erase them from history, or that someone would remake them, or, or, or...

But now I'm just letting them go.

I do own all 3, and do watch them once a year. Whenever a Star Wars movie comes out, as a family, we sit down and watch all movies in chronological order (not release order), and whenever we do, I enjoy the scenes that I like and occasionally, I'll see something or hear something I had not heard before.

But now I'm just going to let them fade. In future years, when we do our little "marathon" (which usually takes 3-4 weeks), I'll leave out the prequels. We have so much material now that I'm just going to let I-III fade into history. Plus, I can always fill their spot with animated features like, 1) Star Wars: Clone Wars (animated series, 2003-2005), 2) Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008, animated movie), 3) Star Wars: The Clone Wars (animated series, 2008-2015), and 4) Star Wars: Rebels (animated series, 2014-present). I am consciously skipping Star Wars: Forces of Destiny (animated series, 2017-present), or, what I'm calling, a poor attempt by Disney to market Star Wars to little girls.
I loved the prequels as a kid, then I grew to resent them because I realized how poor of writing and acting they have, but as time goes on I realize without them the Star Wars universe would feel small, I really like that they are the true building blocks of the scope of the Star Wars galaxy

Thats part of the reason I dont exactly love the sequels, is the universe feels so small

I have to admit that the prequels have the best lightsabers duels, awesome villains and Jedi, if it wasnt for the acting I think they would have more fans

In reality, Lucas was a forerunner as, most of the CW superhero genre is the same kind of rip off cheesy acting drama type shows

Lucas really did it before anyone

I also have to admit, the mark of shame from the prequels is really made up for with The Clone Wars, one of the best animated shows ever

I forgot they bought Hulu. Well then they will probably re-brand it and do a big marketing push.

The teaser looks cool, but we will get the full trailer tomorrow.  We will have to wait until then to see how it really looks.

Maybe a language thing. Trailers and such are sometimes referred to as spoilers, so Razz

Personally I don't think a trailer is a spoiler.  If I'm wrong, ok.  Nobody made anyone click the link though.

I hope I'm not being pedantic here, but is anyone else bothered by the look of the logo? The diagonal "SOLO" in the yellow box just looks funny to me. I feel like it's looking at me with two big yellow eyes. Too much empty space. Perhaps it's because I know the character as Han Solo, and not simply Solo.

Me too but when I first saw the title I thought of Greedo who called him "Solo".

Something about the just the word Solo makes me want to grab a plastic red cup and fill it up from the keg.  
I think that might be the reason it kind of bugs me a little.

So, not only do we get Episode IX, and the Han Solo movie, and most likely the Obi Wan movie, and the next trilogy of which Rian Johnson is writing the first......

.......but there is yet another trilogy in the works by the Game of Thrones creators, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss! source

Too much Star Wars you say? Not for me!

I'm ok with the never-ending serialization IF they stay good and consistent with each other.  This was the point of Lucas starting with IV after all.  Spin-off's outside of the main series seem unnecessary and even destroy the point of the roman numeral episodizing (sorry spell-check, it's a word now).

Here's my order...

1. The Force Awakens (Brilliant, and done with just the right amount of humour!)
2. The Empire Strikes Back (Iconic, and awesome)
2. A New Hope (as good as Empire, nothing bad here!)
4. Return of the Jedi (great, but Ewoks spoil it a bit)
5. Rogue One (Good movie, but not enough Vader)
6. Revenge of the Sith (Probably one of the best SW openers)
7. The Phantom Menace (Much better than people think, although Jar-Jar slightly annoying)
8. The Last Jedi (Some great visuals, but WHAT ON EARTH were they doing with the script!  AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL!)
9. Attack of the Clones (Wooden acting ruined an okay film)

I felt that the wooden acting was prevalent in all three of the prequels.

Compared to both actors who played Anakin and Natalie Portman, a stick could have been a great character.

I thought Neeson and Lee's skills were under-used.  I don't blame them (or Jackson, Christiansen, Portman, or any other actor), I blame George Lucas for a bad script.  The only characters I thought were written well were Obi Wan and maybe Palpatine.
