Am I the only one who's afraid of Abrams becoming all-powerful like Lucas was?
No. Kathleen Kennedy is all powerful like Lucas.
Or more likely who ever heads up Disney, and also the shareholders of Walt Disney company.
The Bean counters and money bags are all powerful. Lucas was the artist as well as chairman of the board. The days of the artist with a singular vision are over. Its time for the corporation to make a watered down product as mainstream as possible for the masses.
Even the though they will be called LUCASFILMS they are not Lucasfilms. He is not making them. Disney bought the trademark and will use it confusing people.
