rofl i agree, its gonna be another cheese fest like john carter.

i hope it goes the Star Trek way, different universe, different stories

Well, after paying so much for the rights, it was kind of expected they wouldn't leave it to just one movie.

As long as Lucas is not involved at all these have the potential to be good.

Don't forget that J J Abrams is making the new Star Wars

If they don't find a good way to bring back my fkn homeboy Count Dooku, then it's a flop. Don't care, it's a flop.

I won't watch it as a star wars movie. Non canon money makers

In fairness, Lucas made the universe and immense respect for that, but him not being the director is definitely a plus

Christopher Lee surely cannot do a lightsaber scene anymore

Meh with modern special effects it isn't too much of a stretch.

Even if it had to be a different actor, Dooku was a G. Absolute legend.

The story is finished tbh. It's like dragon ball gt. non canon bs.

Meh, only the creator can say the story is over. Lucas hasn't so it's not. Just going into a different direction. Can't be mad at that.

I'm intrigued honestly. So many different ways to do these movies and there will be TV shows as well, though I'm less optimistic about that.

Star Wars is a rich world that has plenty of room for good stories. I'm quietly optimistic that Disney will get something good out of it - but I'm not a Star Wars fan, so can't relate to how they feel about all this.

All I ask is to make us a new TIE Fighter game, FFS!

The Extended Universe is extremely erratic. There are some great books (X-Wing series, Heir to the Empire series, etc) and some very shitty ones (I personally hate the Vong, although there's promise if they filter the crap). I will agree there is some good material, but there's just too much crap to follow. It will surely have to include Luke, Han and some epic villain who will never be as awesome as Vader (only Thrawn would be good enough). Problem is, these guys are old as frack, and my geekness will not allow other actors to replace the old loved ones. So I say seal the old 2 trilogies, and start from scratch.

The Old Republic has loads of material. Mandalorian Wars, Darth Revan and Malak, Jedi Civil War... that reminds me, make us a new Old Republic game, frakkers!

To be honest, I'm in that bracket of fans who will eat up anything half related to Star Wars. I can understand people bitching about Disney, but Disney is a monster. Star Wars were never violent films, so I don't understand why we need R ratings or something for it to be cool. Avengers-level violence is more than enough. Toy Story 3 made me cry, so there's my vote for Disney not making dark stories.

So pretty much shut up and take my money.

some parodies,

This one by Pat Oswalt is amazing

Spoiler:

A Wes Anderson inspired Star Wars (Team CoCo)



Michael Haneke’s Star Wars 7 based on Amour

Lucas already said that his story is finished and he views the world after the movies as separate. U mad?

And yes I can, lol. Just like dragon ball gt is non canon lol
