Re: #44 - Disney Buys Lucasfilm

Interesting read. Personally, its pretty amazing how she focused her sights on Abrams and didn't give up, though i kind of feel for the guy with all the demands on his time. But, that's the business.

Also glad to hear that they are pushing on the story-how the story goes will be a whole other...um, story. I will be curious to see how that goes.

I had a thought and it kind of solidifies my opinion regarding Abrams for Star Wars. I would to see a scene in the next trilogy in which there is a hand off from older generation to new generation. I think that Star Trek 09 had a great scene of Spock Prime (Leonard Nimoy) beginning to think of the action going on on the bridge and then the transition to the new crew making the same commands. Its a great passing of the torch moment and I hope that Star Wars can have a similar moment.

God loves you!

I'll put money down that old Jedi Master Luke Skywalker will serve a similar function.

Re: #44 - Disney Buys Lucasfilm

Neat poster, terrible tagline.

All these posters insist on being about Jedi. While unlike Trey I wouldn't want them completely excised from Ep7, I do think they should return to being part of the tapestry and not the entire focus of the story.

Re: #44 - Disney Buys Lucasfilm

I completely agree that we've had plenty of Jedi stories now. Obviously, we should be exploring more podracing.

Episode VII had better be telling the full story of Jar-Jar.

Oh. I went too far, didn't I?

Re: #44 - Disney Buys Lucasfilm

Ep VII is about Luke training Jar-Jar in the jedi arts while struggling with increasing tax rates that push his little podracing business near bankrupcy. Happy now?

Begun, the Disney Star Wars onslaught has.

I expect sometime next week they'll announce the new direct-to-video "Ewok Buddies" series.

Re: #44 - Disney Buys Lucasfilm

Here's an idea, they can have Star Wars themed 5 minute shorts before the real movie's start.
Just fun/cool little side story things like they already do with the Pixar films. Use them to gauge interest in future movie ideas.

WAR OF THE TWINS?

George Lucas approves.

Re: #44 - Disney Buys Lucasfilm

Annnnnnd now they're doing Young Han Solo and Boba Fett movies (according to EW).

If you wanted more Star Wars, well get ready, Disney's going to shove it down your throat.

You ever see a Goose being funnel fed in order to enrich it's liver for premium Foie Gras?  It's kinda like that.

So wait... does that mean this is all gonna end with my gut opened on a table at Disney somewhere so someone can feast on my ultra Star Wars saturated liver?


I don't understand this metaphor at all...
