#2 zombie_babies Oct 30, 2012 15:52:51	I can't say what I said in the group about this here.  Suffice it to say that this hack being rewarded with $4.05 billion is something I find sickening.
#3 jetshield Oct 30, 2012 16:15:09	The last 3 starbores films blew chunks, so this can only be a good thing. Right? Right? Why do I have this disturbing thought that the next starbores movie will be a "heartwarming comedy" that follows the adventures of the next generation of Skywalker kids? Well, even that would be an improvement over the last 3 train-wrecks.
#4 bone_naga Oct 30, 2012 16:29:55	Like I said in the group, even if Episode VII is an animated movie with a disproportionately-drawn supermodel Leia who sings about the New Republic while squirrels and birds land on her shoulders and join in on the chorus, it still can't be worse than Episode I.
#5 bone_naga Oct 30, 2012 17:15:21	Next stop for Disney: buying the D&D brand. Maybe they could release the FIRST EVER D&D movie!
#6 trappedslider Oct 30, 2012 17:45:02	RUINED FOREVER!
#7 The_Silversword Oct 30, 2012 23:14:34	Wha!?  Has Lucas lost it? Selling Star Wars!? That seems pretty dumb to me, Still I guess 4 billion dollars is alot of money, but still, Lucas proabably made that one the action figures alone, I dunno, seems pretty dumb to me. And im going to hold off on the nerd rage until I actually see the movie. If Disney really wanted to make fans happy theyd do another one of them special edition thingys but only this time make it so that Han shoots first, thatd be a nice twist, right? Drug smugler shoots first, instead of waiting to be fired at first.

#9 ADHadh Oct 31, 2012 2:11:11	Drug smugler shoots first, instead of waiting to be fired at first. There even was a LEGO Star Wars episode in which Han shot first. See, kids don't mind!

See, kids don't mind! *bites ADH again*  Damn man, you get that zombie vaccine or something? You dont want to know what they put in that stuff!
#11 ADHadh Oct 31, 2012 2:35:52	*bites ADH again*  Damn man, you get that zombie vaccine or something? You dont want to know what they put in that stuff! Give me a few hours to return home and fix my avatar to reflect my new zombified state. Heh, IIRC my first avatar here was a zombie that was being kicked in the face; you know, back when custom avatars weren't a thing here.
#12 ADHadh Oct 31, 2012 2:44:53	Also, supposedly Disney now owns everything, including Lucasarts stuff such as Monkey Island. Are we in for Jack Sparrow and Guybrush Threepwood finally meeting in person?
#13 The_Silversword Oct 31, 2012 2:47:33	Disney owns the muppets too right? So maybe now we can finally get a Pigs in Space/Star Wars crossover, and no that episode of the muppets with Mark Hamill doesnt count.
#14 draco1119 Oct 31, 2012 7:21:46	Disney probably figured it was more cost-effective to just buy Star Wars ouright, riather than continue paying for the rights to use it for Satr Tours.  I'm sure they made an offer Lucas couldn't refuse; after all, it would hurt his street cred to have to admit that Mickey Mouse turned him into Nancy Kerrigan.

#26 sfdragon Nov 01, 2012 23:38:07	meh... anything disney touches becomes g to pg rated..... and anything game wise they touch must be e rated....
#27 KillerGM Nov 02, 2012 0:16:05	Um, most of the SW films were PG. Ep III made waves because it was PG-13. *adjusts nerd glasses*
#28 sfdragon Nov 02, 2012 0:20:13	and what are/were most disney movies
#29 KillerGM Nov 02, 2012 1:24:35	I'm just not getting the point, I guess?
#30 homicidal_squirrel Nov 02, 2012 8:17:51	Hey ... www.slashfilm.com/george-lucas-will-give... Meh... he has to die for the charities to get some money. Not very impressive when he isn't going to be able to use his money then.
#31 zombie_babies Nov 02, 2012 10:29:51	Is he donating the money to film schools and writer's workshops an' stuff?  You know, to make sure that nothing like the abominations he created ever happens again?
#32 zombie_babies Nov 02, 2012 13:33:35	You're a George Lucas fan, no?
#33 zombie_babies Nov 02, 2012 14:05:06	Since forever.  At least since Michael Bay broke your heart by bootin' your favorite actress.
#34 draco1119 Nov 02, 2012 14:41:28	Am I the only one who noticed that Lucas is only paying ~5% in taxes on this?
#35 ADHadh Nov 02, 2012 15:16:29	Am I the only one who noticed that Lucas is only paying ~5% in taxes on this? He needs low taxes so he can create jobs! Do you want to punish him for being wealthy?

#38 draco1119 Nov 02, 2012 18:04:02	I thought the new Spider-Man was done by a different studio because they still have the rights to that particular Marvel franchise? Same goes for X-Men, too, I think.
