    Lots.
    I agree. It's not like Lucas was going to make anymore movies, so as a Star Wars fan, I am happy to see a future in the franchise.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Disney has a plan where they re-release movies every 7 years or so. The idea is to make each new generation a Disney generation. It could be something like that.

    Well no, there is actually a lot of different stories out of the Star Wars universe. My cousin was telling me about it on our recent camping trip as I was completely unaware myself.

    Apparently, there is a pretty good book about one of the Sith lords that eventually wiped out the old order, and put in place the one of two system. I know one of you SW geeks knows what I am referring too, but the story sounded pretty fuking cool.

    yes, that was it! This is how i can see Disney take the franchise to new heights. They have all this material to work off of. I'm looking forward to the future of Star Wars.

    I think it will be a good thing for the franchise. Im just curious as to when episode VII ( if they even decide to go there, or like someone else mentioned KOTOR ) will come out. 2015? 2016?

    I don't know I think it's good for a Star Wars fan. Disney makes some excellent movies for the PG, PG-13 crowd and Lucas was hasn't done anything good in about 20 yrs. The newer Star Wars movies were some of the worst pieces of crap I've ever seen. I really don't even remember them for the most part. That's how unforgettable they are. Wasn't Lucas involved with Indiana Jones 4? I turned that off about 30 mins through it. I think this will be good.

    I've never understood the resentment towards the new Trilogy, I think they are phenomenal, Episode 3 is my favorite of them all.

    The resentment starts with the HORRIBLE acting, zero chemistry in the love story, too much CGI, and do I need to even mention Jar Jar?

    Also, a LOT of people were upset with the introduction of mitichlorians (sp?). It took the "force," a mysterious presence that demands balance and exists EVERYWHERE.... and turned it into cell structure that some people have in their blood that makes them able to throw furniture across the room with a wave of their hand.

    Im not saying saying I completley hate episodes 1,2, and 3.. . I just felt they poorly represented the story I grew up with.
