As if Star Wars wasn’t gay enough already.
It’s not like any so-called legacy can be raped any more than it has already been by Lucas himself.
I honestly could not care less.

End of discussion.
First Lucas rapes Star Wars for all time (honestly how can you FUCK UP the story of Darth Vader fer crissakes?!?!?!!?) then both he and Spielberg take a great big steaming dump on the Indiana Jones franchise with Crystal Skull.
There ought to be laws against this sort of thing.
I’m glad we see eye-to-eye on this issue.
Anyone that doesn’t is wrong.
Part of me is “oh no!”, and the other part of me is asking myself “can it get any worse?”. At least we know they’re safe from Lucas.

I think this is the prevailing attitude of most that have any emotional stake in the topic.
Do.Not.Want.
Even though I know it’s gonna suck, I’m intrigued. Are they gonna go with the Shadows Of The Empire storyline or something completely different? As long as there’s no ewoks.
Hopefully it’ll be about Nien Nunm and how after the Death Star blew up and all the Care Bears were dancing around he just says, “Yo, eff this, Dawg! This is GAY! I’m gonna go drink Colt45 with Lando and get some space bitches!”
That’s what I’m talkin’ 'bout, mah nizzah!
Our friend Patton Oswalt says it better than I can:

Anyway, this deal would be nice if it means we eventually get theatrical cuts of the original trilogy in high-def. George has been a complete knob about that. Even Spielberg realizes he goofed when he went back and altered ET.
Star Wars is pretty gay as it is. The jedi duels is all it has going for it, everything else is two homo robots blabbering.
Much more interested in the upcoming Star Trek movie.
I can certainly understand why people dislike Episodes I and II, but I thought III was awesome. The original movies aren’t free from fault. Ewoks. Enough said.

You gotta a link?
so disney buys ALL of lucasfilm? or just the Star wars parts? How much did they buy it for?
Late,
grmpysmrf
that link made me laugh, just the bit where he said people were always yelling at him about how crap the films were. got this picture in my head of lucas being chased around the supermarket by angry star wars fans, and he’s now getting his revenge on them by selling to disney, so that they can make one film every year, long after lucas dies, for all eternity.
Revenge of the lucas, businessman extraordinaire!

HAHA!! I just read it. That is pretty funny. At first I just thought he was a big emo cry baby, but the more I think about it, I kind of admire his honesty about it and his recognition of being severely hated. He’s like, “Eff this! Here, you take my junk. I’ll just take . . . uhhh, FOUR BILLION DOLLARS!!!”
He’s 68. Good for him. Cash out and just go straight ghetto millionaire on everyone’s asses. Without even considering the bazillion dollars he already has in the bank and not accounting for any interest collected, he could, even if he lives to 95, spend over $400,000 a day and die with just as much money as he had yesterday.
For the most part I’m very definitely in the ‘well how can it get worse?’ camp, but at the same time there is a little part of me that thinks maybe, just maybe, someone at Disney will come up with something really cool and interesting. I mean, I know it aint gonna happen, but damn - what if! Y’know?
The prequels basically killed my interest in Star Wars. I don’t even feel like watching the originals anymore. So it’s a “who cares” for me.

Fuck, that movie was SO bad. Your franchise can have Jesus or aliens, fuck you if you think you can get away with both.
