Sounds like an excellent move to make.   :applaud:

Disney is the obvious choice. 

Let's hope they do a better job than Tron 2.0.

Lucas was never going to turn anything over to his kids.  His kids don't get any of his money at all.

We has changed his mind and contradicted himself so many times who knows what to believe. At least now he is out of the descision making loop.

On the one hand, I don't really care what happens to Lucasfilms.... they haven't made anything worth watching in decades.  On the other this kind of stuff is scary.  You guys are all excited that Disney owns yet another originally independant company and ip?  Are you are on crack?

Here's the deal.... at this point 90% of all of pop culture is owned by two companies.... Disney and WB.  Less competition means less creativity.  It's sad really. 


And this is Lucas Film we are talking about...  they've got Star Wars, which is a washed-out ip that will never regain it's former glory and what?  Old adventure games and Indiana Jones?  Disney doesn't want it for the film rights, they want it for toys and theme park rides and t-shirts and more worthless crap that they can sell to you with little to no effort.  Expect the films they release to be of the lowest quality plot-wise... which actually kind of fits into the Star Wars cannon (sorry SW fanboys.  ;) )

Hooray for new toys, theme park rides, t-shirts and other crap!

First you say Lucasfilm hasn't done anything in 20+ years. Then you say Star Wars is a washed-out IP that will never regain it's former glory. So why do you care who buys it? Your post is nothing but piss in cornflakes. Cornflakes you didn't even like in the first place. What exactly would you have us do? Send a collective boo to Disney?

I just can't see why Star Wars (which you don't like) being acquired by Disney (which you don't like) bothers you enough to even write a post about it.
