This is a good thing, Rage. They can complete the movies. Disney did well with Spiderman's movie, right? The gaming industry might have more coming to them, too.

I'm just disappointed they didn't continue with 7-8-9, instead of putting it on Hiatus for 2 decades.

I think 4 - 5 -6 should have been the original trilogy (which it technically was). Then followed with 7 - 8 - 9 where Luke becomes a Jedi Grand Master, restores the Jedi Order, and watches his own son fall to the dark side. Leia becomes a Jedi Knight, blah blah.

THEN I think that now, 2012-2013 would be a good time to begin the prequels leading up to Star Wars, but to be fair, the newer generation of fans loved the prequels more than the original trilogy so Star Wars might not have the same hype with younger fans if the prequel didn't come out when it did.

Let's face it, the original movies are far more "boring" in terms of flashy action and cinematic choreographed lightsaber fights. And these same fights wouldn't be realistic after the Jedi Order was destroyed because no one was left to teacher the art form of fighting to Luke. He has to rediscover it for himself.

But I hope they do find someone good to play an older Luke Skywalker... I wish they'd get Harrison Ford to be Han Solo again, but he may be a bit TOO old to do that role again, even if it is int he future from those movies. I don't think he has the physical capabilities anymore... But I can't see anyone else being a real Han Solo. He's a more iconic character in the original trilogy, than Mark Hamill was for Luke Skywalker or Ian McDiarmid was for the Emperor. Fun fact, Ian played Palpatine not only in the original movies (5 and 6) and later in the remastered version of episode 4 they put his voice in over the original choice, but he was also Palpatine in the prequel movies.

Aside from the actors who played C-3PO and R2-D2, he's the only actor to be in all 6 movies. And I don't mean to discredit the first two, but R2-D2 was controlled by a midget with no real lines, and C-3PO does in fact have a human voicing him and controlling him, but you never see his real face.

Still, I am cautiously hopeful about the new movies.

I look forward to these movies with my inner fangirl screaming inside. The story is continuing. This isn't a remake and adding onto Indiana Jones, but it's completing what was already envisioned. They already did it with the books, which I enjoyed, but now it's going to theaters. I don't see how this can go bad. Disney has been doing well with Marvel I believe. And it's another Star Wars movie. Episode 3 is still a movie I watch over and over again. The only reason that the movies weren't made was because of the fans I think. Lucas got tired of it and I can't blame him. People betrayed him for his own work. Jar Jar Binks, Gekido with Han Solo. Millions of people bashed him for a two second change after he gave them the satisfaction of Star Wars.

Anyway, definitely looking forward to it.

Disney can't afford to screw up on this. So I'm expecting the movies to be great.

Yeah, that is the only disappoint I can see. There weren't any novels to read for 1-3 before they came out about them. Even though you knew the story because of 4-6, you didn't know every single detail and how to expect it coming.

The emperor died in episode 6 right? so it's gonna have a new villain.
Even though I never watched (or watched but don't remember) the majority of the saga I don't think there is gonna be much they can do with the new films apart from rebuilding everything and teaching new jedis.

For you guys that didn't know, there's a collection of novels that show what happened after the 6th movie, that are considered cannon, (except by hard-core fans who deny anything but the original trilogy lol)
