    It's been creating quite a buzz across the internet. Not sure how I feel about it tbh. Lucas has said for years he was never gonna make the 7th film but I just don't know if Disney will be able to do it justice. Will they come up with a worse character than Jar Jar Binks? He was already a Disney style toon imo.

    Didn't Disney also buy Marvel comics a year or so ago? Everything nerdy is being merged into this all consuming greedy void with a mouse head!

    Anyway over dramaticness aside, George Lucas has always been a greedy pleb with no integrity. Guys, come on...Jaja Binks...you're seriously gonna forgive that shit?!

    I've heard the title for the 7th Star Wars film is going to be called "Princess Leia and the Seven Jedi Ewoks. "...

    Disney can't fuck up Star Wars/Indiana Jones anymore than Lucas did. I see this as a positive.

    How did Lucas ruin star wars lol. He came up with the idea. Fuckin Disney will just disney-fy it all and it will suck the big one. I'll stick with the original star wars films thanks.

    IMO Disney did a great Job with Tron Legacy....
    ... so there is a realistic chance to get some new great star wars movies

    Lets see what happens. The expectation that everything has to be bloody gritty and dark is somehow set into most minds. That doesnt always work. See stargate universe do i need to say more? Star Wars is somehow a perfect thing for disney, the old movies i mean. Its a fantasy setting, that was casted and directed supremly but does not look feel like it could not be a disney movie.

    I dont think disney can make alot wrong with this. They will avoid annoying gimmicky characters like the pest and try to make a epic story.

    Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
