George Lucas is a brilliant businessman.

100% agree! Lucas is 68. He just cashed out for $4 Billion. Star Wars 7 is coming, but do you think he gives a shit whether or not it succeeds? His pocket is now very fat. He'd have to do a TON of work to profit that much on his own accord. Now someone else has chosen to take the risk. Granted they get the existing content, which is valuable, but at his age, this is most certainly a BRILLIANT move.

The potential for a few great rides at Disney is huge...
Merchandising, and well produced films will also probably net millions for Disney....They should have done that long ago. Disney needs some fresh, adult oriented meat to sell, and this fits the bill perfectly. That being said, I've not seen any of the Star Wars movies. |

I've never been able to watch a Star Wars movie for more than 20 minutes without losing interest.

I have only seen the first three myself. Tried watching others and just can't do it. Star Wars was the first movie I ever saw in a movie theater. I was eight years old. It cam out the day before my birthday. I fell in love with the movie and the following two others but the magic was lost after that.
