Disney buys Lucas Films for 4 Billion and plans on coming out with Star Wars episode 7 in 2015

[Ossi Vaananen]

I remember seeing an interview (for the 97 special edition) with George where he talked about the whole story being 9 episodes. He mentioned how there's supposed to be a prequel trilogy as well as the story continuing on. 7,8,9 are about the New Republic but with how much George connected 1-6 with the story of Anakin I'm not sure if 7,8,9 could have any real continuity anymore. I would definitely be interested if Disney had just done a different Star Wars franchise set in a different timeframe.

They'll probably still stick with some kind of Skywalker offspring. I would like to see another Hans Solo type, that was missing from 1-3.

I remember being about 9 when I saw A New Hope on vhs, was a great day

Stood in line for the premier of Phantom Menace, not so great

here's hoping for 7-9 getting back to the original magic. hopefully it can still be branded as Lucasfilm, and not have the limitations a Disney movie would

[TOMapleLaughs]

The resurrection of their John Carter series should work well with a rename to Star Wars ep. 7.

Off-topic, was just thinking, 'Hey, where's the Dune remake?' and then i google it and see it's coming in 2014. Shouldn't have even asked myself. Everything that i have seen will come back sooner or later.

[DeNiro]

The director and the casting will determine everything.

If they get James Cameron or Christopher Nolan, it would be awesome. Not gonna happen though.

And go back to using models and puppets. So much better then blowing the budget on special effects.

From Wiki, so take it for what it is: http://en.wikipedia...._sequel_trilogy

Hans Solo, Luke Skywalker in their 60s, 70s... and this is supposed to appeal to a Disney audience? I bet Disney guts this.

I predict some hunk in his 20s with a Blake Lively-esque heroine.

Or wait, I know! How about Justin Bieber playing Luke's great grandson. Imagine the $$!!!

I would love to see Yoda training Donald Duck

Jake Lloyd (Anakin from Ep 1) is about the right age to play his own grandson or great-grandson, depending on when the movie is set.

I think...

Ep 7 will be where Luke turns to the Dark Side like his father before him. He briefly touched upon it when battling Darth Vadar. Leia then takes on a quest to become a Jedi since Yoda hinted she could become one.

Ep8 will be when Darth Luke is ruling. Han and Leia have children...twins.

Ep9 will be when the twins become Jedi and together defeat Darth Luke.

The story of Hans Solo and Princess Lea's son turning to the dark side is a good story.  The heroine in that storyline is the son's twin sister who saves the day and kills her brother.

[Darth Kane]

This is a good possibility. Jacen Solo turns to the dark side and becomes Darth Caedus. His antagonist eventually becomes his twin sister Jaina. (who after training with the Mandalorians, is known as the Sword of the Jedi)

Those of us who have been reading the multiple print additions to the Star Wars franchise know that there are several angles which could be pursued. For example, there is the not so subtle suggestion that the tipping point for Jacen's defection was his incarceration by the Yuuzhan Vong.

The story of the Vong invasion by itself, could encompass several films...

They still have to bring back Luke, Solo, and Leia......too bad the actor are a bit old but I think makeup and other special effect can make them 10 years younger........R2 D2 and C3P0 should be back but in the backstory like Luke is the head of the new jedi council, Leia a senator, etc

[Armada]

I'll judge after I watch it.

[Humble Rodent]

let's not pretend the star wars have not already been raped to the absolute rock bottom of cinema. there's really no way they can make them as bad as the prequels and disney isn't stupid.
