Disney buying Lucasfilm (new Star Wars movies on tap)

Good for him. I am actually amazed he was able to hand over the reigns. Congrats George on the long run. Now PLEASE stay away from the film industry. :lol
 
Maybe Lucas got tired of all the heat he gets when he made the changes "he always envisioned it" he said screw it??
 
Personally, I'd love to see a show/movie about Boba Fett, or the Karen Traviss series of Republic Commando. But please, don't turn it into a kid friendly, "and what did we learn today" show like they did with the Clone Wars 3D animated show.

Folks have been angry with him for a long time. I don't think he honestly realized that a simple BR release of the originals would have shut a lot of them up.

Don't like the PT? Fine, ignore it. Don't like the SE OT? Fine, ignore it.

He made it so that people who wanted to ignore it couldn't without going back to their old and much lower resolution copies.
 
And I'll also say that I'm happy that GL will still be involved in Star Wars. As much as people don't like certain aspects of what he's done we wouldn't have any of it without him.
 
It will be fun to see a Star Wars where the Jedi high master is a talking rabbit with majical powers and the sith break out into song on the way to a battle!

Obi Wan will have great dialog like, "Screw your courage to it's sticking place and go fight the Sith!"
 
Two days ago I didn't care if I watched Star Wars again for a while, I've been kinda burnt out on the flicks for a bit. But now I am PSYCHED to rewatch them. WTF is wrong with me? One press release and I'm back on the bandwagon like a bad case of Patty Hearst (stockholm) syndrome.
 
Some people here have posted that they hope for and original Star Wars on Blu-Ray. Mind you, Disney will Never let Han shoot first. Your hopes are DASHED.

Sure they will. There's a huge market out there for a release of the originals, now that the artist is out of the picture there's nothing preventing them from capitalizing on that.
 
I will rpurchase the blu-rays if they are released unaltered even though I own the altered onse

I said long ago that if they released the originals on BR as a set with NO special features at all and in a cardboard box I'd still wait in line to pay $150 for it.
 
This thread has shown me that Lucas is way fatter than I remember him being. Looking forward to what comes of this.
