The Force Awakens is still rolling through records in the theaters. Viewers are comparing how many times they've viewed the movie (I'm still at a pitiful one viewing). But we have more news to help ring in the new year: Entertainment Weekly has unvealed the slate of Star Wars movies- Episodes and Anthologies- through the (expected) year 2020:

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (Dec. 16, 2016)
Almost one year after the release of The Force Awakens we will get our first non-Skywalker centric Star Wars movie.

Star Wars: Episode VIII (May 26, 2017)
Rey, Finn, Poe and Luke Skywalker return with the next installment in the new trilogy. Episode VIII will likely set more records and answer questions left at the end of The Force Awakens.

Star Wars Anthology: Han Solo (May 25, 2018)
A prequel telling the tale of a young Han Solo before he met up with Luke and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Maybe we'll finally find out how he made the Kessell Run in less than 12 Parcecs.

Star Wars: Episode IX (2019)
The sure to be thrilling conclusion to the new trilogy and winding down the story of Rey, Kylo Ren and co.

Star Wars Anthology: Boba Fett (2020)
The fan-favorite bounty hunter gets his long-awaited solo outing.

There you have it. The complete slate of Disney/Lucasfilms Star Wars films for the new generation of fans.

Personally, I knew it was coming, but I am not thrilled with the announcement of the Boba Fett film. I am of the contingent that thinks he's an over-hyped character that gained popularity based on his look more than anything. Other than that, I have four straight years of Star Wars movies to look forward to.

I feel both Han & Boba are overhyped, I am not much of a SW fan. So i won't watch all of these in cinema but an old republic spin off would be nice.

I would totally be down for a Kenobi spin-off star Ewan McGregor!

This seems like a pretty cool line-up of movies. With this and Marvel, Disney is going to be making it rain with billions.

I felt like I had to justify my opinion, because if there's one thing I've learned about Boba Fett fans is that they are vicious.

Am I the only who wants these movies to do new stuff rather than retreading old territory?

I'm glad to see they with the May release.

Imagine how much money Star Wars would have made if they'd released it this summer. In a summer that was, to be honest, pretty sparse.
Jurassic World, Furious 7 and Avengers: Age of Ultron? Not exactly Star Wars.
All three of them were critically panned and nobody would have actually given two shits about seeing any of them if Star Wars was out.

But they had the money to spend and those three were the best that Hollywood had to offer.

All three of the above-mentioned films made the All-Time Worldwide Top 10.

All that money could have been Star Wars money.

Very wise.

MAY the Force be with all future Star vWars films.

As far as the anthology films go, Rogue One sounds interesting, but the other two sound like disappointments in the making.

@grif Avengers Infinity War has the early May dates for 2018 and 2019 and one of the 2020 Marvel films is set on May 1st.

@grif

Most of the Marvel movies are slated at the bringing of the month. While the Star Wars movies are at the end of May.

I'd rather have a Boba Fett movie than a Han Solo movie, since we know so little about Fett as an adult.

But I'd rather they actually make original stories in the Star Wars universe and not base them off familiar characters. It's a galaxy, not a neighborhood.

Unless they go with a younger Boba Fett, get Temuera Morrison to play him again.
