I don't know about you, but I keep hoping they'll stop talking about SW and finally move on to something else. Ya know, just like he said he would after Ep 3. I think as long as he keeps talking about SW, the fans will keep getting hyped up waiting for "the next big thing". Mind you, the fans I'm referring to are probably mostly hanging out on TFN, still buying SW toys and other collectibles, and watching the 6 movies in order from 1-6 (typing that was hard, especially since I don't even acknowledge the existence of 1-3). The rest of us have moved on. Yeah, we still watch the original trilogy from time to time, but we're not analyzing every frame and every shot and we're certainly not buying the umpteenth repack of some Anakin Skywalker figure.

If Lucas would just move on, so would everyone else. Maybe once the cash starts to dry up, he will move on to something else, but I'm not holding my breath.
