Star Wars 7 coming in 2015
Bluesummers:
That's right. Just like everyone [tried to] ignore the 2nd and 3rd Matrix movies...
riccostar:
Nice try but I know they stopped after the first Matrix movie. The second and third movies are just wives tales used to trick little children into not ruining great movies with bad sequels
Bluesummers:
I...I totally fell for both of them! Those wicked old ladies...
Kugai:
Take the blue pill, take the blue pill!!!!
Lupercal:
I had to take a variety of pills to get me through Revolutions
As for aquiring Hasbro - why, when Transformers 4 is going to be so successful now that Hugo Weaving said he didn't give a shit about voicing Megatron and Mark Wahlberg is going to be the new Shia LeBouf!
Now THAT is a sequel trilogy that nobody really does give a shit about.
--- Quote from: Sorflakne on 10 Nov 2012, 12:38 ---Seeing as how Lucas doesn't consider the EU to be canon to the Star Wars story, the new movies could either be very good (if they somehow recreate the success of PotC (looking solely at 1 and 2) in the new movies) or very, very bad. Either way, I will remain ambivalent about this until more details are known.

Re-watched PotC recently and thought it was God-awful (yes, #1). So, unfortunately I'm not so much for Disney making THOSE kinds of films with Star Wars, but it now frightens me that they could.
The weird thing is, Lucas engaged a lot of those authors. Kevin J Anderson was asked by Lucas to write the post-ROTJ novels. He's had involvement pretty much every step of the way, and I suppose he doesn't consider it 'cannon' because you can do a hell of a lot more in a cheap paperback than you can in a £300million movie. Story wise, at least.
You have to think, how bad can Star Wars really be? If Phantom Menace is as bad as it gets, then its smooth sailing from here. Another thing that frightens me slightly is getting Luke back to be the new Obi-Wan. That could go pretty badly. I was sort of excited for a new trilogy that doesn't dwell too much on fan-service but maybe that's just too difficult in a franchise so embedded in our culture?
