So there's undoubtedly a bunch of Star Wars nerds on this site so what do you guys think of Disney buying them out?

As long as they don't screw up Star Wars for me, it's awesome. 3 more movies.

Disney now owns Star Wars AND Marvel....

Disney made all the movies I loved as a young child.

Disney owned pixar, who made the movies I loved as a pre/teen.

Disney owned marvel, who i love as an adult who didnt read comics much as a kid.

And now Disney owns star wars, who i loved forever and ever amen.

Disney is just here to make me happy and give me the shit I want. I am certain of it.

It is great news:

1. Lucas said before to not expect Episode 7, and now we are expecting it.
2. Disney is a very reputable company that owns great theme parks and makes great movies.
3. Star Wars in a new kingdom hearts game, anyone? Sora vs Darth Vadar?

Lol I have to admit Aimee that the kingdom hearts things was one of my first thoughts. But I know many people have been hoping for more Star Wars movies, although I'm not sure what to expect. Lucas said that he wanted Star Wars to outlive him so I think it was a good idea on his part. Also Lucasfilms remains in good hands.

Disney has done unexpectedly well with other franchises such as the marvel universe. Now there will be star wars for the next generation. I wonder, will Pixar start working with the clone wars series? Lol. But all in all I think this could work out well. Still hoping for an old republic movie. That would be sweet.

As long as they dont try to remake the originals, ill be happy. I am not proud of the idea of more movies because i dont know where they are going to go with it. unlike most things, the movies are the "law" and the books are not. So if they make a movie that contradicts the books, then the expanded universe has to shift. I know that the authors work really hard with each other to make sure they not stepping on each other. I love how the EU works. Jedi Knight was a first person shooting game from like 1997, and the game had a valley of the jedi on a planet. basically thousands of jedi souls were caught in a nexus and a dark jedi wanted to tap into that power. In 2006 a book was released (which was the start of my favorite star wars series) that brought you back to this planet and showed you how those jedi got trapped. That is so cool that this author new about the game and expanded on it. I just worry that more movies will ruin that.

Lucas has always claimed their is his canon, and the EU canon.

Now lucas is out of the picture, and disney isnt a retarded company... So here is hoping they bring in Karen Traviss and Kevin Anderson, Aaron Allston, Troy Denning and ALL the guys who worked on the NJO series... and work with them.

I would LOVE to see the Grand Admiral Thrawn trilogy as the next 3 episodes. He was fucking epic.

They could make the three Thrawn books as the next three episodes. I would also love to see movies about the Great Hyperspace War, because that is one relatively untouched era.

I feel that thrawn would be too much, especially since it hints and mara jades and luke's relationship to come. I think the jedi academy would be a good place to go, so we can see the reemergence of the jedi order.

They should just stop making Star Wars movies before it's ruined.

Like the prequels didn't already ruin it? I mean c'mon, how many people were pissed when they explained what made "the force" work when we all had just sat there and happily accepted that these "Jedi" could manipulate crap with just their mind?

Star Wars has been done to death. Just let it die. That said, Disney is a reputable company. I cannot think of anything they've come out with that has been utter shit. Even their lowballs (Tron Legacy, Pirates II, III) are enjoyable and have cult followings.

I have no problem with them redoing the originals as long as Han shoots first.
