** Star Wars Episode VII - SPOILERS WITHIN **

As long as Lucas isn't involved then I'm quite hopeful, they've done well with Marvel.

SO MANY FEELS!

Fans can expect a new feature film, Star Wars Episode 7, in theaters worldwide in 2015

With this many characters to develop and stories to tell, Disney plans to release a new Star Wars feature film every two or three years for the foreseeable future.

Quite. The guy's a [insert favourite insult here]. He just can't leave well enough alone when it comes to Star Wars. The films were perfectly fine before he decided to redo the SFX, and adding the young Anakin at the end of Return of the Jedi was the final straw!

[more insulting words aimed at George Lucas].

I've got a bad feeling about this...

 

[Shamikebab]

Well the press release says Lucas will be 'creative consultant'


Hopefully someone will give him a Jar Jar plushy and tell him to sit in the corner and button up.

I've already gone from cautious optimism to massive fanboy hype! VERY excited! I do wonder what they'll do with 7, if it's to be the continuation of Luke then will this be the first 'perfect' all CGI film that has always been rumoured for the sequel trilogy?

 

[Grandmaster Fap!]

He'll probably use the money to abuse one of his other movies, Willow 2 anyone?

SO EXCITED!

The more I read the BBC news article the higher my eyebrows went!

More Star Wars. No Lucas involvement....just imagine...proper scriptwriters...proper plot...and a new trilogy...

Impressive...most impressive.

The first two were awesome but everything since has been abysmal. The 7th will now doubt rival Police Academy: Mission to Moscow in terms of quality.

Not quite.... he is staying on as creative consultant.This is a good thing,imo. He knows the Universe and hopefully will make sure it feels like Star Wars.

Was always gonna happen one day.

I just hope it doesn't invalidate the post movie novels. There's a lot of good material there that would be a shame if they ignored.

 

[Xordium]

I would like to think we will be getting Star Wars Galaxies 2.0, KOTOR 3 and a Rodriguez 18 Cert lightsabrefest ... but in all reality:

I've got a bad feeling about this...

omfg i was so close to spitting my cornflakes out reading this! pure gold!

Hopefully Disney realise you don't need to have whiny emo kids or annoying aliens to appeal to children.

 

[scorza]

Darth Vader NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Leave it alone, the brand can only be damaged by Episode 7: Revenge of Porkins or whatever terrible idea they come up with.

 

[Castiel]

They have done marvels with the Marvel Franchises, so hopeful for StarWars.....

 

[Glaucus]

Yay, nay, I don't know.
I don't like the films any more. Read to many of the EU books and the films just don't cut it any more.

Any ideas what the story lines going to be, is it going to follow the books.

 

[Werewolf]

So, can we expect to see Harrison Ford replaced with Pluto in the near future?

I'd like to think they can do some good films given they've got some great stories/books to work from, but having endured Episodes 1/2/3 I can't help but fear for it.
