Oct 30 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co said it agreed to buy film maker George Lucas's Lucasfilm Ltd for $4.05 billion.

Disney will pay about half in cash and issue about 40 million shares at closing for the acquisition of the film studio known for the iconic "Star Wars" movies.

I just saw this in the news.  Lucas will be a creative consultant.  So there are two ways to look at this:

1.  Any more Star Wars films are a terrible idea.

2.  If they have to make another Star Wars film, at least George Lucas doesn't have final say in the writing decisions.

yeah, why would we want the original creator to continue his series?

Have you LISTENED to the dialogue in any of the Star Wars films?  For that matter, did you watch episodes 1 and 2?

Lucas' universe is quite engaging, but Lucas' writing is not - he need a filter between his "creativity" and the audience, or you get a product like Episode 2.

yes, and i liked them all.  episode I was a little more boring than the others and the kid wasn't a fantastic actor, but they were all enjoyable movies.  looking past the questionable pacing of "slow develop slow develop slow develop LOL I'M DARTH VADER NOW!" III is my favorite of all 6.

Is there a reason to be interested in this?  I'm not sure Disney is capable of making something as mature as Episodes 4 and 5.  At best we'll get adorable little furry aliens running around at some point and at worst its all child apprentices on Yavin IV.  Unless a timeframe get announced where there's minimal chance of children and cute furry aliens *cough*Thrawn*cough*, I'm just not caring.
17:37:02   Quanto: I want to have sexual intercourse with every space elf in existence
17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

Technically, since Disney also owns Marvel, they're exactly as responsible for The Avengers as they will be for Episode 7. And considering that the last film Lucasfilm produced was Red Tails, I doubt that there's anywhere to go but up.

EDIT: There was never anything written here. These aren't the droids you're looking for.

I'd also like to point out that Pixar, another entity owned by Disney, was responsible for Toy Story 3, which is only superficially a movie for children.

The entire concept for Toy Story 3 (from what I view it as) is it being a movie for the people who grew up with Toy Story 1 and 2, not so much those who were born five years prior to it's creation
Because yeah, it's not particularly happy



I do have a question about all this though
What the **** are they going to do for episode seven...
