Ugh tell me about it. :)
Good to see you, walkingdork. :)
How are you?
I think the internet has broken me.

I just want the originals on blu-ray too. Hope disney releases them in my lifetime.
How old are you? :P
I think Disney will come around to it, but not for a few years at least. Didn't they have many of their animated films on moratorium for much of the 2000s? Or maybe it was just a few, like Beauty and the Beast. Anyway, I imagine it's in the discussion over there, but the consensus is probably, "Let the nerds wait for now."
The Rock could be a formidable Sith Lord.

How much of a hand Disney has in these things can be debated, but I highly doubt Lucasfilm is being governed without input from the current owners.
And the LucasArts point, while a separate issue, was most definitely under Disney's discretion. They put a hold on most LA projects last fall, like the 1313 game (which was going to tie into the live action series)
Disney seems to be putting most, if not all, their marbles behind the new film for the time being.
Shame about LucasArts being gutted by Disney. Looking forward to social/mobile SW games, though. ;)
The SW brand sells itself without needing Lucas' name attached.
Older fans put off by the prequels and special editions will be more enthusiastic due to Lucas not writing/directing.
The visuals and such will be the attraction for younger fans.
Other casual fans and filmgoers probably don't care about whether Lucas is involved or not.
This movie will make a hell of a lot of money because everyone wants to see what happens when Lucas isn't involved.
I could see Lucas having arranged visits to the set a few times, but not randomly popping in.
Plus, George barely stayed awake when he was directing the prequels. He'd probably fall asleep just being on a set otherwise.
Happy 10, OT.com. I discovered you too late, but I'm glad I'm here now. :)
ESB is the best overall, but my favorite was always ROTJ.
George is going to be like that nagging mother-in-law who doesn't leave Kathleen and JJ alone, offering unsolicited advice at inopportune times.

Was there really anything interesting in the film that one could spoil, if one had already seen the OT?
It was the smaller details, like Anakin killing younglings or chopping of Mace's hand. Things like that you'd expect, but not explicitly knowing would be a bit more surprised upon seeing them.
Also Padme dying. Many people were wondering if it would happen. I suppose the movie tips its hand early that it will happen, but same as above. Impact slightly lessened.
Oh no, I'm thinking about ROTS again. It's all coming back to me. "No I'm so in love with YOU." Ohh, ohhh noooo.
Yea a picture here or there is fine.
That's one thing I really like about Abrams. I miss those times when you didn't know much going into a movie, other than having seen the trailer or maybe reading a short article. There was just such a sense of wonder and discovery.
I regret spoiling myself on pretty much everything going into ROTS. It was still a great experience (at the time...), but I think I could have enjoyed that film so much more if I didn't spoil myself silly with every tidbit and set shot in the months leading up to it.
Information naturally flows much more freely and quickly in the digital age, but even then it just seems like sometimes there are too many leaks, big and small.
Indeed, good luck to Mr. Abrams. I like how he's handled the ST2 buzz, so I think he'll know what to expect with SW.

No problem! I get annoyed with the TMZization of celebrity news coverage these days though.
Funnily enough I happened upon that link when I heard about Carrie's interview, went to Google News, and searched "Carrie Fisher". Most of the articles were about her having a 'bipolar incident'. Celebrity news indeed is strange, which is why I have never felt an inkling of desire to follow it.
Nothing confirmed.
A rep for Fisher said nothing has been confirmed. LucasFilm, which made the original “Star Wars” films, said, “At this time we are not ready to make any announcements about casting because, as Yoda said, ‘Always in motion is the future.’”
LOL I was kidding about the meds. Perhaps it's time to incorporate more smileys and winkies into my posting repertoire.
Sounds like the always-on DRM for SimCity is as bad as that for Diablo 3.
Will she wear that bikini again?
Also, how reliable is Carrie to confirm such news? This happened a few days prior.

Are these going to be small museums in his basement that nobody cares about or wants to see? ;)
Also noticed a small mistake in the video. The interviewer said Lucas sold SW to Disney for $2 billion. It was $4 billion. :)
