I hope they bring back the original characters and use CGI to make all the actors look young again. Really all they'd need are their voices.

Nice. Definitely something to look forward to. Been too long since a proper Star Wars film.

Best case scenario they bring back some old characters from IV to VI and continue the story 20/30 years after the events of VI.
This trilogy 'HAS to be better than I-III.

Yeah, man. We should all be cynical about this. It's clearly the best mindset to have about a new Star Wars film.

I know you're just trolling, but that'll be a lot of people's attitudes when they hear about this.
Too many people are cynical bastards these days. I think we should give this a chance before we assume the worst.

What if they included the Yuuzhan Vong and Grand Admiral Thrawn?

I would love a film about Thrawn. He's one of the best villains to come out of the extended universe.

Ya because Disney can't do a better job than what George did with I-III.
One word: Avengers.

If they follow on from VI then Thrawn would be ideal. But at this point we have no info to go on, so it's all speculation really.

The fan reaction is better than I expected. Most people just seem to be glad about Lucas having less involvement and are generally hopeful about it. Glad it's not just been arbitrarily dismissed.

In USA there is a radio program called Market place. 30 min business radio on APM. Very popular - Today they interviewed the CFO of Disney re why they paid 4 Billion.
Three that is 3 new Star War movies planned. Lucas is only contracted for the first one and has the option to continue but CFO was fuzzy on that part.
