Yeah so basically Disney bought Lucasfilm and is planning to release a new Star Wars movie in 2015.
Oh no ... Disney is going to ruin yet another "mythical legend" from the past. After turning Aladdin, Hercules and a few others into a joke it is now the turn of Luke Skywalker and his kids to get ridiculous. Prepare for more Jar Jar Binks ... we all know he was universally loved, eh? Right?

Well there always was supposed to be a 7-9, right.
I dont think so, because originally the Death Star was supposed to be destroyed at the end of Episode 6 and not 4, but then Lucas noticed that he needed some sort of bang for episode 4. In the end the whole story was shorter than intended ...

I found the Disney treatments of Hercules and Aladdin quite excellent to be honest.

Not sure if happy because new star wars film , or sad because Disney will make it.
I have no hate against Disney, but they should stick to kiddy films...

Oh god, no. If the franchise isn't already ruined enough...

Any recommendations for SW books?
Only ones I read are the Thrawn trilogy and also another one(s?) about a mad ex-Jedi mass mind-controlling people (was so long ago that I don't remember the title).
I feel like reading some SW stuff right now. I like the dark side so if there's good old Sith plotting it's a plus. :D

I really enjoyed all of the X-Wing series myself and there are a ton of books in it so there's lots of material.

Yes, because the cartoons are a joke and treat the story disrespectfully. They can make such funny cartoons with their own creatures and I dont care about it, but not with legends and stories from the past. Future generations of kids will learn about them from Disney first and then the myth changes to "ridiculous" instead of "heroic and dangerous". Any Aladdin or Sinbad movies from the 60s are 100x better than what Disney has done to it.

Im a starwars noob, but what does episode 7 cover? The inbetween of the new Darth Vader and where it starts off at episode 1?
Is there enough content to make stuff up for this? Also implying if there are gonna be episodes 8, 9, and so on.

Please no more cheesy poetry lines in the next one.

Yeah Star Wars with Hannah Montana and the Jonas Brothers.

I'm hoping they draw from some of the books that were written for the aftermath by other authors, but I don't think Lucas originally wrote a story past episode 6

I never liked the story of Star Wars (be honest the death star is just stupid from a military point of view and the whole Yoda/ObiWan/Anakin/Padme thing just doesn't make any sense) but hey the lightsaber and space fights are fucking awesome. I think there will be no Yuuzhan Vong, because it would take to long to explain that. Alone the backstory of them with the travel through the galaxies and their history would need 1 1/2 hours of the first movie. And no real dark vs light sight fight? Most of the mainstream audience will not like it. And Thrawn? I don´t think too because the whole moff thing was never explained in episode 4-6. If you only watched alls the movies you think that there are just vader and the emporer leading the empire. And remember the end of the "new" BlueRay/DVD version of episode 6, the whole galaxie was celebrating at the end like the war was completely over. I think it will be future (500 years after episode 6) and the story will be that yoda come back from the dead to revenge for his cgi disaster 
Actually the yuuzhan vong war would be really easy to do. The thing is it would lean more into 2 trilogies if they wanted to do it right.
First movie would be jacen's training, meeting Tenel Ka Tjo, and the opening battles where the yuuzhan vong conquer a large part of the galaxy.
Second movie could be corrusant being captured, jacen's capture, and his slow fall into darkness in the hands of vergere during his torturing.
Third movie would be his escape, ending in the final battle where he defeats the overlord and shaper, experiencing his unifying moment with the force.
That makes a good ending, but also opens up to a second trilogy where he is apprenticed by lumiya and becomes darth caedus, slowly killing off the jedi until jaina finally defeats him in the final battle. There are sooo many battles that it's pretty easy to have hours of action while slowly feeding the story to the viewer. And maybe it's just me but I always enjoyed jacen's story.

lol i just started to watch star wars and im on episode 4 made on [1977] . is there a way to watch starwars episode 4-5-6 without watching stuff that was made 40 years ago ? thanks No one has answered this question yet? There was a rerelease in 1997 of the original trilogy for the 20 year anniversary that retouched and restored most of the films' scenes, and even added a few that were cut from the original (I believe the Han and Jabba scene on Tatooine wasn't in the first 1977 release). That's actually the version that most people have seen, not everyone has seen the original one from 77. The 77 version is the superior one. Too bad my VHS are in a terrible shape  And by the way the director's cut is not always the best version. You know of course that was a Limited Edition available, where they released the remastered old version of the trilogy in high quality but without all the bullshit added in the anniversary edition? http://www.mania.com/unaltered-star-wars-trilogy-dvd_article_51157.html
I'm so going to + Show Spoiler + this.

Can't remember who it was (probably Ridley Scott) who was getting pressured to do a director's cut for DVD sales, whereas in his mind, the director's cut was the one that was shown in the theatres.
Yeah that happens, but I thought of Ridley Scott for the opposite direction. Blade Runner's original cut makes sad.
And yeah 5-4-3-2-6-1

I found that the most recent stuff takes a lot of liberties with the fiction, honestly the Thrawn stuff is among the best. X-Wing series I guess, but once you get Yuuzhan Vong and later it just gets really weird and tbh begins to feel less Star Warsy.

lol dude aladdin is one of the greastest western animation piece of the late XXth

Can't get much worse than episode one, which would be pretty horrific. Anyways the franchise lost most of its appeal to me after episode 1 and everything since then especially the animated stuff has been targeted at a younger audience. Selling it to Disney makes perfect sense, although I would have wished for a different direction.
