LMAO, I literally JUST read this!!  OMFG!?!?!?

So now Disney owns Marvel and Star Wars?  Does this mean we'll finally see that Han Solo/Gambit crossover we've all been craving??

Lucas said in a statement, "It's now time for me to pass 'Star Wars' on to a new generation of filmmakers."

That time came a couple decades ago. But hey, better late than never!

I'm not sure this is a good thing, but I can't see Disney f*cking up S.W. any more than Lucas has as of late (~two decades).  I'm more worried about them ruining ILM, Skywalker Sound, and Lucas Arts, though not so much on the latter (they haven't done anything that interests me in years).

Joking aside, the only good thing that could possibly come from Disney's involvement would be an archival BD release of the theatrical originals.

Two massively unwieldy, totally over the hill companies have merged. I'm thrilled.

Star Wars is the most overrated film series ever made.  As I am not attached emotionally, I hope they ruin it even more so I can have a good laugh.

I wonder how they're going to pull it off?  CG?  Cameo transition to a completley new story line?  Solo Children?
