You heard it folks, this could either go horribly wrong or pretty good. Turned out well for Marvel right?
QuoteDisney, which already owns brands such as Pixar, Marvel, ESPN and ABC, announced it is paying $4.05bn for the production company.
It confirmed it is making Star Wars Episode 7, which is scheduled to be released in 2015.
Kathleen Kennedy, the current co-chairman of Lucasfilm, will become its president and will report to Walt Disney Studios Chairman Alan Horn.
Lucas will be creative consultant on new Star Wars films.
"It's now time for me to pass 'Star Wars' on to a new generation of filmmakers," he said after the deal was announced.

The big "B" huh? well then Disney... Lets see what you got.
It's not April Fools yet....
I was hoping for star wars to go a bit 'grittier' not this but I'll remain optimistic.
Yeah...
I don't think this bodes well for Star Wars.
But how much worse can it possibly get?
-edit
Good for Mr Lucas, though.
He made an amazing thing and deserves the tremendous payout.
I'm just not comfortable with Disney(or anyone) putting together the Galaxy after Endor.

Considering what the expanded Universe actually looks like I do not look forward to film adaptions of that material.
Here's some wacky things that happened in the novels, comics etc that took place after Endor:
.The Emperor Was Cloned
.Luke Was Never The Last Of The Jedi (turns out there was bloody loads of them all over the gaff)
.Luke Turns to the Dark Side
.Boba Fett escapes the Salaac Pit
multiple times.Chewbacca gets killed attempting to physically hold a moon up from a planet........
.Magic
.Yuuzhan Vong

i have to admit im sorta worried about this movie too. I have heard a lot of "after endor" stories too, and several dont sound to promiseing. Also when is this move taking place? are they going to be using the same characters left off in E6?

I wonder if they'll stick to the timeline from the books (I hope so, they're good :)). I had to laugh just now when my brother came in and said; 'have you heard the Star Wars news?' followed by 'is it a joke?'

5 *possible* story-lines they might go for.
http://updates.io9.com/post/34667628718/5-possible-storylines-for-the-next-star-wars-movie
Heh, $4 Billion. I guess I would sell my soul for that too :whip:
Couldn't this lead to certain Ideas of new product lines? *cough* Video Games *cough*
This could be very, very bad. Like 15 jar jar like characters popping up all over the screen bad.
Or, the film takes one of two plot lines suggested in the article Unit posted
1) It takes place 5 years after the Return Of the Jedi, the charactors have aged a bit and we can get a new plot line in. The movies would bring in a lot of old fans for every reason the original trilogy brought them in, and it would be appealing to newer audiences with lots of lasers and lightsaber fights. If the film is done correctly, I could see it making enough money to make the top 10 all time.
2) The film takes place in the Old Republic Era, and this gives the team alot of leeway in terms of where to set the story. It could be set in a time where the Republic and Jedi Order are just forming, though at that point there wouldn't be much conflict to write about. It could also be about the Hyperspace war, the events of KOTOR, or something after that. This would be a pretty cool idea too, and it would also be a money maker.
Generally, I think the franchise is in better hands with Disney than it is with Lucas. Lucas was way too involved in the making of the movie, and therefore ruined the prequel trilogy with meaningless crap and terrible acting, and nobody could really tell George that he was wrong.
This will give a very good IP some new perspective, and I think that with the right team the universe can be shaped into a roaring adventure of a trilogy.
Still though, I'll be apprehensive about this until we see some of the plot, actors, and trailers.

Still, it is shame, but I guess, SWBF4 will be not created, and will be no new assets for SWBF series...

Lucas films was bought not lucas files, so i was told :D
I thought Lucasarts was bought.
Ugh let me explain it. LucasFiles is not owned or operated by LucasArts they have nothing to do with the modtools. LucasFilm owns Lucas Arts so when Lucas Film was brought Disney became the owners of LucasArts as well. And LucasArts hold the rights to the modtools and can revoke them at any time. Hence why tirpider was wondering if it could change the licensing for it.

Lucasfilm LTD.
Pretty much the head company over it all, even Industrial Light and Magic and Skywalker Sound.
Lucasarts is a child company.
I was ok with Lucasfilm owning the derivative works produced through modding, but I am not a Disney fan at all.
I could easily say I hate them for more than the stupid mouse.

I'm too time invested to quit for somthing like this. The formats we use are so out-dated it's not funny. They would have no use for anything but concepts.

Regarding the plot of the seventh film, there was a relevant post in a thread in Reddit earlier this year. I posted this earlier:
The main idea in one of the paragraphs: "In short, the Republic was completely and utterly unprepared for a real invasion, from a force that wasn't being controlled by a puppetmaster who was preventing either side from gaining an advantage until the moment was right. The kinds of fleets that were commonplace in the Empire would have been impossible for the Republic to even agree to create, let alone have the wherewithal to actually build. What Palpatine did was take a failing system and tear it out by the roots, replacing it with a brutally efficient, military-industrial focused society - one that could adequately prepare for an invasion of the scale of the Yuuzhan Vong were already beginning."
The comment's TL;DR: "TL;DR: The Emperor destroyed the Republic and built Death Stars to fight off an extragalactic invasion."
I don't want to be a pessimist, but
I'm sure this film will destroy the magic of Star wars for once and for all :(.
It will just be another childish film with nothing more than action, a cheap story
making use of the star wars cliches and nothing refreshing. And then all kids will be hyperactive and violent.
And then they will conquer the world and that will be the end of mankind.
PS: I DON'T LIKE MICKEY MOUSE!!!
I fear and love this at the same time.
I fear it because it can lead to several things, more ewoks and gun guns, or a resurrected emperor, or an entire serie like Star Trek (i would hate it if it would come to that).
But on the other hand, i love star wars, the time, the place, the people...(apart from some weird species).
The point is, star wars will continue to excist for everybody. It might be possible it'll be not as weird species as Lucas made.
It might even be possible they will create an entire different universe, a universe before Anakin (for example with KotOR). or they can make it a world after Luke, and start with one of his apprentices (hopefully not another Yoda).
But all of this is speculation, lets just wait and see what happens!
Yes, it wasn't catastrophic, when "Space Balls" was maded, as more funny variation of Star Wars story, so, why Disney version should be worster?

I hadn't realised that they had bought LucasArts and Lucasfilm, here's a quote from Disney and it doesn't look good for console/PC games;
Disney Interactive has moved away from console development recently and the first response from Disney chairman and CEO Robert A. Iger about making new Star Wars games was the following: 'We're likely to focus more on social and mobile than we are on console.'
'We'll look opportunistically at console, most likely in licensing rather than publishing, but we think that given the nature of these characters and how well known they are, and the storytelling, that they lend themselves quite nicely, as they've already demonstrated to the other platforms.'
In other words they're not interested in making console games themselves but they are happy to licence the franchise out to other companies.
What this means for Star Wars 1313 is unclear, but a LucasArts rep speaking to Gamesindustry International insisted: 'For the time being all projects are business as usual. We are excited about all the possibilities that Disney brings'.
We're glad they are because, to paraphrase Han Solo, 'we've got a bad feeling about this'.

LucasArts is still a giant company that had big funds in it's bank accounts and will still have big funds in there bank accounts. I don't see them stopping game publishing any time soon.
It was as if a million voices cried out and were suddenly silenced...
In order for the fans to be happy, why doesn't Disney let us write the storyline? :shrug:
I'm still not sure this is good or bad yet...
Now you guys all know me, I was going to go on some giant rant but I decided to just say this:
The Mayan's were right! The world is ending in 2012!!!!! :'(

Why do you think another star wars movie will involve Anakin? Ep 7 was always supposed to pick up after the Ewok party.
Oh, yes, I think now, it should be a wonderfull love story (Disney done many of them, in lot of fairy tales). Well, we already sow, wedding of Indiana Jones, and Marion, so why now, it shouldnt be a wedding of Han Solo and Leia, or Luke and Mara Jade? It should be so lovely story... :wub:

Wasn't there originally going to be 9 or 12 films? Although recently George Lucas has said;
"I've left pretty explicit instructions for there not to be any more features. There will definitely be no Episodes VII–IX. That's because there isn't any story. I mean, I never thought of anything. And now there have been novels about the events after Episode VI, which isn't at all what I would have done with it. The Star Wars story is really the tragedy of Darth Vader. That is the story. Once Vader dies, he doesn't come back to life, the Emperor doesn't get cloned and Luke doesn't get married..."
Well at first i thought it was a bad idea too,but look at all the new stuff that is posible now.Maybe Disney will revamp the BF3 project or Republic Commando 2.On the other hand Disney could screw it all up(like some of there films).We just have to wait and see only time will tell.Best of luck Disney.
I personally hate the Old Republic time period, so hopefully they have the movie take place after or during The Empire.
No more lucas... :tu:

:rofl:
Here's what someone else wrote on my other forum (may contains words)
QuotePros:
.Lucas no longer has control of the franchise.
.For the first time in a long while we can allow ourselves even a little hope that a new Star Wars movie won't be disappointing.
.Maybe the original movies will be released without the special editions.
.There is an actual possibility that one day they'll remake the PT. Not soon, but one day.
.Lucas can return to the role of controlled idea guy.
.Disney are aware of how the prequels are perceived and how big Star Wars is. There is hope that they will take that into consideration and show a little more care with the material.
.Many writers and directors are going to fall over each other wanting to make a new Star Wars movie, unencumbered by the heavy hand of Lucas. Poor Andrew Stanton, I don't think they'll give him a chance. Whedon is probably running around trying to figure how to do this movie and Avengers 2 simultaneously. Peter Jackson is probably thinking of a way to get out of doing the sequel to the Hobbit.
.Disney have made good and bad movies. They have shown a willingness to nurture creativity. They are definitely a far cry from Lucas.
.I'm not against the idea of Mark Hamill having a cameo, or maybe even more. So long as he is not the hero.
.The prequels were so uniquely bad, it is hard to imagine something worse. And it would be nice to visit the Star Wars universe even in a generic sci-fi movies.
.It will be funny to see how prequel defenders react.
.Now that Lucas has 4 Billion, he can start building a working Death Star.
.I honestly don't think they'll remake the originals. They might make straight to video cartoons.
Cons:
.We are all afraid of the same thing -- the Disney are just interested in exploiting the franchise in the most generic and soulless way possible. We know that they'll make money even without much effort.
.Never say "how worse can it be?" You might find out. Remember how many disappointing movies come each year.
.Can Lucasfilm act independently of Lucas and create good material rather than EU crap?
.It is so easy to get it wrong. Even in the best case scenario, writing a sequel to Star Wars is no easy thing. Think Tron: Legacy. Think Crystal Skull. To write a good sequel, especially so late after the originals, requires more thought and creativity than your usual Hollywood material, or you'll end up with a poor imitation of the original.
.Contrary to what we tend to think, a Star Wars movie might fail financially as well as creatively. Audiences are much more jaded. They might end up spending millions and then fail and shove Star Wars into a deep closet next to all the other failed franchises.

My understanding was he always had in mind a trilogy of trilogies (9) movies. The middle first, the beginning second, and then the last, last. Of course, I think that George has said different things and different times, and it has also been conflicting. That's been part of the criticism of him.
As a person that saw the original movie in a theater, we had no idea that there were to be any more movies after what has now become known as episode IV. To say that movie was about Vader would invoke some strong arguments. I think the 6 movies only became about the rise and fall of Vader since it was convenient so say so.
Any, what it really means is that this thing will be a media juggernaut propelling itself forward for the next century or two. Death star roller coasters, Queen Amadala disney princess dolls, ... it will keep coming!
ATTENTION!!!
If you guys haven't picked up on me being a MASSIVE Star Wars nerd then lemme tell you now. I am one. When it comes to Star Wars and how it was made, the story, etc. I know almost all of it.
So when I say that Star Wars IS the story of the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker I mean just that. I have read MULTIPLE quotes of George saying that. The movies are ultimately the fight between good and evil. If George wanted to make more feature films he would have. Not pass it on for another studio to do. No there wasn't meant to be 9 films. Only 6, George had the story all in his head before he made the movies! All 1-6. Not 1-19.
I find it utterly impossible to believe that lucas or anyone had the plot (if it can be called that) for Episode 1 in his mind while making the original trilogy. It's like imagining a square circle, I just cannot make my brain do that.
It is easy to poorly execute a plot you have in your mind. Have you ever tried writing?
Anyway I am not sure why Episode 1 gets hated so much. I thought it was pretty good last time I watched it. But then again that was years ago my memory my not be serving me well.
Quote from: Kit Fisto on October 31, 2012, 03:48:16 PM

Hmm... Only 6 Episodes in Geoge head?... So, from whose head come 2 tv series with Ewoks? I didn't spot Anakin there, but the story still go on...
I believe the prequels (being an afterthought) were well intentioned and the big plot points were ok.
The delivery was questionable. Could have been bad actors or bad scene diriction.. any combination of any number of things that go into ruining a story.
But that's just my opinion.
Disney won't change this.
I was initially sickened by the idea of their tradmark Disney-fication of Star Wars, but .. I don't believe that will happen. Lucasfilm is still Lucasfilm and is operating pretty much the same as they always have, just with a little less Lucas. Disney just got in on the action and Lucas got a nice check. I think they would be insane to interfere with the cash generating giant Lucasfilm has become.
And that's all the little mouse (and his shareholders) wants, is to get paid.
Now if this were ElectronicArts aquiring LucasArts... there would be riots....
No one can screw up a good thing like those guys. It's like they took lessons in how to make things bad.
I read somewhere that EP7 was going to basicly be the further adventures of Luke and a focus on the rebuilding of the Republic. I also heard that they were not going to stick to eu canon.
For me, it would be great if they abandoned canon altogether. It would establish that multiple timelines and story concepts were ok. That everything isn't carved in stone. It would free the fan's imagination again like the first movie did. Sticking to hardline canon just become a tedious history lesson after a while.
Fun Fact: The supposedly bad actors in SW have been seen by my family in other films being good actors apparently. So if it isn't the actors that are at fault the logical conclusion is the director.
I agree.

Sorry to burst your bubble kit, 9 movies was his idea in 1978/79. I lived it. Like I said, George changes what he says to suit him--and you are buying into one version. I have no doubt that you could find anything to support a particular stance on the issue. In 1977, the idea that he would even make a sequel (empire strikes back) was extremely novel. These days, trilogies are the norm--but not back then.
And I think he did have some ideas for carrying the moving to a prequel status from the beginning. Not the plot, mind you, but some of the things he did, such as having some of the characters be masked, such as vader and the emperor so that there were not tied to any particular actor.
The cartoons were addon material (some may say crap) that he threw together later to extend the franchise in a format that was not as difficult to deal with as real actors and special effects. So whatever number of movies you think that he wanted to have, he has already gone past that if you include them. These could live on with a release every few years, like the James Bond franchise.

Yes it's technical name is a "Deus ex machina" (not related to the video game of a similar name).
Essentially... when a character is confronted with an obstacle and the writer can't think of a poignant/clever solution to it they use a Deus ex machina, which is a sudden unexpected event/character/whatever which solves the problem. You see them a lot in action movies and they're usually annoying (Bad guy about to kill the good guy suddenly gets hit by a car or something).
In The Force Unleashed it would be Starkiller suddenly being able to drag a colossal spaceship out of orbit despite previously showing no promise to have such amazing powers,
it doesn't make sense in the story, it's just convenient for the writer.

There is a perfect way to continue star wars! After they destroyed the death star I dont remember the empire saying"Its over! we give up! It could just be my memory, but...

Quote from: Kit FistoNow you guys all know me, I was going to go on some giant rant but I decided to just say this:
The Mayan's were right! The world is ending in 2012!!!!!
Star Wars: Episode 7! See it on TWO THOUSAND IN FIFTEEN!
*Repeated Facedesk*
Quote.Lucas no longer has control of the franchise.
YAY!
Quote.Disney are aware of how the prequels are perceived.
It's pretty obvious
Quote.Disney have made good and bad movies. They have shown a willingness to nurture creativity. They are definitely a far cry from Lucas.
Evidence they made good ones: Wreck It Ralph
Quote.The prequels were so uniquely bad, it is hard to imagine something worse.
The Holiday Special
Quote.It will be funny to see how prequel defenders react.
It will
Quote.Never say "how worse can it be?" You might find out. Remember how many disappointing movies come each year.
Like ParaNorman, and Hotel Transylvania.
Wait a minute, those were disappointing?!

I find it utterly impossible to believe that lucas or anyone had the plot (if it can be called that) for Episode 1 in his mind while making the original trilogy. It's like imagining a square circle, I just cannot make my brain do that.
Here's one! (http://nooblord9001.deviantart.com/art/Square-Circle-337317076)

If I don't die before completing it then ya sure.
Is your teth map mirroring the one from the clone wars movie? You should post some screenshots of it!
