Etapi Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) http://news.yahoo.com/disney-acquire-lucasfilm-ltd-195100740.html The link tells the tale. Not sure what this will mean for SWTOR, but it does mean a continuing story for Star Wars fans. I just hope Disney doesn't kill the lore and sticks to canon.

Sindorin Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Not sure how I feel about this. I mean, Lucas is star wars in my mind. As a personal hero of mine, I am just uneasy about someone other than him making the films. http://www.businessinsider.com/a-new-star-wars-is-coming-in-2015-2012-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etapi Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 Well episode 7 cant be worse than 1-3 right? Well, Disney does make good movies, and we all know that they are a very strong business. Seeing the value of the Star Wars name, you could almost safely make an assumption that they will invest wisely in the movies with high quality writing and good directors/producers.

Aurbere Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I'm not sure if I like this. I like the idea of a new Star Wars movie, but there are some down-sides to this. Apparently it takes place after ROTJ, so that would mean a couple of novels will be N-Canon, depending on when it actually happens. Not sure about this.

isorfidia Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 So excited for this. With George Lucas finally retired, we can once again get a good Star Wars movie. The prequels were absolute disasters, and I have longed for someone else to take the franchise over. I am so excited about this news and a new era of Star Wars.
