Discuss. I'm unsure what to think how this bodes for the franchise.

Hmmmm 3 new movies makes me happy... it's really going 2 come down 2 how well they make them... guess time will tell.

[mag36]

no one seemed to care about the last three. But the big question is it going to be another prequel set or what. Big thing is disney owns it now so who knows what they will do

[Chikun]

It said that they'd keep him as a "creative consultant" which I think is good. He has great ideas, but also really bad ones and to have someone say no to him on the bad ones would be nice.

The original plan was 9 movies, so disney is just going back to the original plan.
its going to be sequals

Will it have anything to do with Thrawn trilogy?

All EU is getting retconned.

basically, this will be amazing, IF and only if they are set in the same universe, but are completely separate. new characters, new plot lines, everything.

only people i liked from the newer 3 were mace windu and qui-gon jinn...sam jackson and liam neeson were the only people i felt acted properly, the rest of them felt corny and mostly monotone, didn't feel much like the first 3 to me. i wanna see some better acting...and harrison ford.

Going to be risky, it will either be a good success or an big fail, i don't think there will be a way in between it. big + is that we have 3d now and more.

Thought I'd bump this with more information for those interested.

[What]

From what I've read it continues the story of Han, Luke and the rest, meaning they need to cast people which resemble them about 20 years after VI. I did read somewhere that they may consider cgi-ing the original actors into it somehow, but that would probably look like a big dump on the screen

[ZERO]

But after the ending was altered they currently make it look like the empire just dissapears after the end of the last movie...

Well according to the article, it states that the focus will be on different people with possible appearances from the others. I have doubts that the movies will take place immediately after the end of the 6th movie.

Not what I saw, but its gonna be like 3-5 years so its probably gonna change dozens of times

Where are you reading this?

On CNN's website shortly after the sale was made, if i come across the actual article I'll let you know.
