    Disney To Acquire Lucasfilm LTD, Episode VII Planned

    This has been reported by Theforce.net ***, is it April Fool's Day already? Although it wouldn't surprise me if it's true.

    Already a thread about it here.

    Did not see this coming. http://yakfaceforums.com/main/2012/10/30/disney-acquires-lucasfilm-episode-7-in-2015/ Maybe we can get the unaltered classic trilogy on blu-ray now.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

        Does this mean Cartoon Network will be losing Clone Wars?

            Your new 4ft Jar Jar is almost certain to increase in value now, because I'm sure Disney will promote the hell out of that guy.

                  Does Dinsey officially absorb THX and ILM? Together with Pixar, that's pretty much a monopoly on special effects and sound tech. I bet this moves the TV series a bit closer to reality as well.
                  I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                  If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                    What does it mean for Dark Horse Comics? I imagine that the comics will eventually migrate back to Marvel.

                      Most likely.

                      Once the existing licensing agreements with Dark Horse expire, production of SW comics will almost certainly return to Marvel.

                        Yeah. They've GOT to be coming up to the end by then. (When we'll see Anakin brutally murder Asoka....)

                        >I imagine that the comics will eventually migrate back to Marvel.

                        ....unless Disney buys Dark Horse too. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!

                        >Episodes 7, 8 and 9 confirmed.

                        I know Lucas was planning those.... in one form or another.... since WAY back in the day. I'm curious about what future they'll use; the Expanded Universe stuff, the Yhuzin-whatzits guys, the Solo kids, something else....

                        And does this mean we may FINALLY get a restored Holiday Special?

                          Apparently, the new movies won't follow the Expanded Universe novels or comics in any way. They'll be original stories.
                          Which is great news.

                          Yeah. They've GOT to be coming up to the end by then. (When we'll see Anakin brutally murder Asoka....)
                          I'm pretty sure the new season of Clone Wars was rumoured to be the last, anyway.

                              If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.
