The news of the century. Disney buys Lucasfilm.
I, for one, am not surprised. Looking back you know disney has been courting Star Wars for quite some time. Star Tours, StarWars weekends, disney characters dressed like Han and Leia.
Lucas said in a statement, "It's now time for me to pass 'Star Wars' on to a new generation of filmmakers."
I back Lucas on this, he has always given his fans the freedom to parody, insult, create, and add to his universe. And he's always treated StarWars like a business. Because this is the movie business.
Look at it like this... It's like we voted him out of office. Fans overall hated the prequels. Hes not doing anything with the franchise now. And there are plenty of people let alone fans who are more than willing to take his place. If Disney can do to StarWars what they did with Tron I think Episodes 7, 8, and 9 might be something to look forward to.
The only question left. Who is going to play Luke Han and Leia...?
