@Flipz: is that really what you think Disney is gonna do to SW? Disney isn't all kids/childish stuff,in fact, a lot of their stuff has nods towards older fans, and I'm pretty sure that they aren't gonna make SW something targeted at 4-6 year olds. Had this deal not been made there likely would not have been more movies.

Oh, no, I get that, I just thought the video was hilarious.  Grin  Did you notice who made it? Wink

Not sure if someone already mentioned it, but it has been confirmed that the new trilogy will be an original story. As long as they don't completely invalidate the EU, though...(IE, Han and Leia get a divorce, Luke is actually a Wookie in disguise, etc)

LOL Truth...


I'm falling into the "they can't do a lot worse than episode one" camp. Will be interesting to see what parts of the "expanded universe" they include/exclude going forward. As for disneyification, the IP can't really be any more exploited than it was under Lucas' direction.

"Can't do worse than Episode 1"
Spoken like someone who has never watched the full-length Ewok movies. (Caravan of Courage and Battle for Endor, both are on YouTube.)

"Can't do worse than Episode 1"

Oh, come on, episode I wasn't that bad. The visual effects and sound design were top-notch, and much of the art direction was wonderful. All they did wrong was cast the wrong actors. I can list plenty of worse movies, many of them made by Disney.

Episode 1 is at least slightly more memorable than episode 2...
but both are overly criticized all the time, most often because they aren't "Original Trilogy" stuff...

the worst thing about ep1 is that they made anakin young, and thus had to use a child actor, which rarely goes over well. Plus they made a lot of the plot be defined by "lucky events"... knock out jar jar, made anakin 16 or older and that movie is a lot less awkward. Darth Maul was and still is amazing.
