Looking forward to it. Just looking at how Disney handled its video game licenses with Wreck-it Ralph, it goes to show how Disney is very respectful of the original sources. I think a lot of people will be pleasantly surprised!

I read somewhere a day or 2 ago there are supposed to be a total of 9 films? Sorry I don't have the link to post! But if what I read is leaning towards being right, expect 3 more..

I was thinking about the idea of making more star wars movies past episode 6 a few years ago. I didn't think it would ever happen due to upsetting a lot of fans.

Doesn't matter to me either way. I think it could be good.

So...does that make Leia a Disney Princess now? :V

For all intents and purposes... yes.

Not sure what to think... I guess I'll find out when it comes out. Hopefully it carries on the legacy of the originals.

I don't think it's any coincidence that the best Star Wars films are the ones not directed by George Lucas. I'm interested to see how it goes now that it's out of his hands.

This... I... just... ugh.

I'm surprised nobody's made a thread about this yet. I've never been a huge fan of the Star Wars series to begin with, and I generally disliked the prequel trilogy. Only the original trilogy got a positive reaction from me.

Also, rarely does a Disney film come along that doesn't irk me. I don't claim to be some kind of uptight film critic but ads for Disney films are usually all over the internet and television stations, they explode at the box office, but when I get around to them a year later via piracy or three years later via the DVD bargain bin at a local pawn shop, they're almost always the same: visually appealing but with a very flat storyline.

Of course that's just my opinion and I'm sure there are people here that love Disney films and I won't criticize those people. But this I must ask: does Disney really need to keep buying all this stuff? They nearly have a media monopoly by now, wouldn't you think?

Anyway, this thread is for the discussion of this media merger and of the upcoming Star Wars film.
