Disney Buying LucasFilm! WHOA

[The MaD Hatter]

So that's what they're spending all that money they saved by switching to plain napkins on. Now it all makes sense!

Or the live action Star Wars TV series they have been mulling about for a long time...

No way Disney will move forward with Underworld... (Sadly.)

I'm fine with that, but that trilogy was an amazing read!

When it came out, I was excited to see any new Star Wars. But I thought it was pretty derivative. I decided I didn't need to read any more Star Wars books after that. Glad you enjoyed it though.

LEAKED BLUEPRINTS!

Awesome!

If George Lucas is NOT involved in this movie it will be the best of the 7 movies.

I would not be too sure... Have to wait and see... CLONE WARS... Now does that get pulled from Cartoon Network and moved to the DISNEY Channel?

I was thinking that too...wasn't the show supposed to be out by 2015? Hmmmmm....

Well the best Since, wait he did not direct Empire, so, yeah ok - you're right!

In an unrelated story WDW ticket prices just went up 150%

lmao...

I'm okay with Disney torching anything with Lucas' fingerprints on it post 1983.

I see that as like how Marvel is still at UNI...

The story should be Luke, Han and Leia's children with the three of them playing cameos. Would love to see Luke's wife Mara but I think we're past her.

I'll take the Hngar Suite for 2 adults and a wookiee.

Be sure when making your reservation to tell Disney that the Wookie's under 10 so you only have to pay for an Ewok.

 

[GeorgiaPinesRJB]

I'll take the Hangar Suite for 2 adults and a wookiee.

Emperor's Throne Room?

Avengers 2 and Episode 7 in the same year? Big bucks for Disney....

Nice new avatar

 

[riverscu0m0]

tl;dr
I'm assuming that people are very upset about this, though? and if you don't mind me asking- why? I'm not a big lucasfilm's person, but I'm kinda imagining it's how most felt when disney got marvel?

The Clone Wars deal is not eternal. Eventually, Disney will pull the plug and set up their own cartoon on their own network. Probably not Clone Wars though.

*Awaits Disney's official announcement of a Star Wars-themed area to squash all rumors of a CarsLand at TTPFKNTD-MGMS.*

Have to think that there's been at least a modicum of idea generation around a Star Wars-themed land.

But the real question is - How soon until 462,985 pieces of Star Wars-themed merchandise is available at every merchandise stand and shop at WDW?
