Heir to the Empire trilogy please!!!! i've been waiting forever to see those books on the big screen. besides being solid stories, they deserve a place for what they did for the expanded universe.

Well, SWTOR is good until their contract expires (I'd imagine it's 5 years or so, but I hardly know for certain). Disney has their own software arm, and directly competes against Sony in many areas (Movies, for instance), I don't think that SWG from SoE would be back on the dokket - although maybe we may see another incarnation of the franchise. |

Its a building block for the future to come. Us old timers will cherish what we remember. Disney will give the next generation something that they think they will cherish.
Its kind of sad actually. Like an era turned over to toon ville. =( |

Originally posted by Sevenstar61 No clue. If they are following the books and comics at all, it will be about the Yuzong von (or however it's spelled), but they honestly never felt very "starwarsy" to me. |

Originally posted by Sevenstar61 i'd think something about the future jedi academy and the skywalkers and solos siblings.. hopefully they get fisher, ford and hamill and the rest back to at least have a small role in them I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall.

Technically they only bought Lucasfilms, not Lucasarts. As far as I know, nothing will change with any of the Star Wars games, they are outside of Disney's influence.

This could be good or bad....as long as we never see Mickey Mouse with a light saber I suppose it would be hard to screw this up...Hopefully they will look into making a real Star Wars mmo similiar to Pre-cu SWG and dump that disney fart of a game TOR...only time will tell :)

Disney was the worst company that could've bought it imo. Expect all ages(G Rating or at most PG) movies. I think ol' George is finally getting his revenge for all his loyal fans being "mean" to him.

Originally posted by asmkm22 Disney buys LA and announces episode 7, just so happens the next step in the EU is about force sensative children getting into hijinx and helping to save the galaxy. I'd say you're right on. "Criticism is an indirect form of self-boasting." - Emmet Fox |

Originally posted by necoo nope just been reading up and it includes everything, including .... Lucas Arts, they got it all.. shocking .. yes.. but im guessing George decided he'd got as much out of it as was possible.. still for 4.5b .. can't help wondering if maybe Disney paid a bit too much.. like.. massively.. though looking at the data, only half of it was cash, the rest in shares or something, well i say only, 2 billion is.. .. huge.. |

Originally posted by asmkm22 +1 the Vong never appealed to me either, really not very star wars at all, more like something our of star trek.
As far as SWTOR whatever, the game is dead to me. As far as the legacy of the starwars films, I am quite worried about what Disney is going to do..... |

For the love of Cthulhu, would you guys get over it? SWG is never coming back. Never. Join the League For Gamers. |

Originally posted by Sevenstar61 I agree it was my favorite as well. There's no way Disney is going to touch that content, though. We can expect to see plenty of sequels following the formula of Episode 1, and a lot of Ewoks. Tons and tons of Ewoks. "Criticism is an indirect form of self-boasting." - Emmet Fox |
