This also means that people saying they didn't want Cars Land in DHS won't complain so much if DHS gets an expansion of Lucas instead...

Re: Indiana Jones..
On the Conf call they are saying they didn't associate a value with the IJ franchise because of the previous contract deals on that property. Basically, someone (Paramount) already has long term hooks in that property (at least films) that would be expensive to buy out.

Let us all celebrate with a Huge Yub Nub!!!
Why throw away what's been created over the past 30 years? Disney is about opportunity and making money - what better opportunity to make money than off the backs of those who have created a fairly decent SW Universe? The source material is already there, a few tweaks and voila! I smell at least one or two story arcs that would keep the SW movie franchise going for over a decade. Tack on a TV show or two... Disney will be essentially printing money, as long as they don't screw it up, ala Lucas and Episode I.

Now all they need is DC, Star Trek and Doctor Who and Disney will own nerds 100%.

I just read the news and had to come here! I was almost wondering if it was some sort of joke but if it is serious, I am very VERY excited...don't know about the future Star Wars movies (not a prequel fan) but the idea of more star wars in the parks (not a fan of Avatar either, lol) is very awesome to me.

This is kinda weird but now they have no choice but to do more Star Wars in their theme parks right same with Indiana Jones?

No brainer. The Lightsaber. I've always thought the HP thing will fade significantly in 10 years anyway

Yeah, that makes sense.
I personally would love to see both an expansion of Lucas and the addition of Cars at DHS. Make that park really POP!

…Still in shock …but wasn’t Lucas working on a prime time star wars TV show and put it off because the technology wasn’t ready yet to make it cost effective? Maybe that wasn’t his reason all along. Maybe he’s been looking to sell to Disney for a while now and didn’t want to start something he was just going to sell. Now, do you think Disney will approach this project?
I’m excited by the idea that I will be able to take my now 3 and 6 year old boys to a Star Wars movie but also afraid that the franchise will be slaughtered.
This is great for the Parks but I’m not sure about the movies. I’ll just have to wait and see but I’ll stay optimistic and hope that Disney can do this right.
