Well, word around the internet is that this has to suck, but I don't think Disney can do worse than Luas did last time with Trilogy V2.0

Hopefully they let Lucas keep jarjar.

Can't be worse than Episode I. I'd say at this point getting Lucas out of the series can only improve it.

There is some decent material out there in the dark horse stuff and at least the Thrawn stuff from Zahn. Will be interesting to see if there is a shift in canon.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

 

[WolverineMike]

there's no way they could change any of the canon. There's so much material out there, to try and change it would be very disappointing. I'm in the middle of Jedi Quest series right now.


I would like to see them go darker, like Darth Bane type of stuff. But with Disney buying it, they will probably go post Jedi with New Jedi Order stuff


Either way, I think it's awesome.

Oh, fuck this.

I am not sure why anyone would be angry. It's not like Lucasfilm has made a decent movie in over a decade, and even LucasArts sucks donkey dick nowadays. Disney can't do any worse.

Not so fast, my friend.

 

[ochre]

not an auspicious start

edit: I'm going to hope for the best. There is some hope, Pixar is/was associated with both companies.

I cringed a little when I first heard this, but then I remembered Episodes I - III...Disney at least knows how to end a movie and follow a plot. Plus their characters aren't crap. I think this could be a good thing. George lost his marbles awhile ago. The only downside is that I can see Disney continuing to use CGI backgrounds if the new movies are live action as oppose to the live scenes in the original trilogy. Those new movies with all blue screen gave them too much of an artificial feel.

This guy hits the nail on the head concerning Episodes I - III:

Hopefully Disney takes advantage of this the PROPER way.

No more of the kiddie bullshit, give the fans what they want and Disney will put up a hefty profit.
