As long as Lucas doesn't write or direct them then they should have half a chance at being somewhat OK.

So the doppelganger that took over George Lucas's life is even richer.

Great.

This means that we'll see films with JarJar's grandkids.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I think that Disney has been able to produce some more than decent scifi movies and they can't do any worse than Episode 1. I think that, as Lucas learned the hard way, they will try to keep the story as close to the same tone as the original trilogy as possible.

I watched that recently. It wasn't so bad for that era.
They haven't done any thing like that for a long time.

I think Disney will do good with it.

He already owned it. He was already worth the value of the company. He's wealthier but not 4 billion wealthier. Poor guy.
