Sure, that's a great point, but it can still appeal to the whole family if it's well made. That first new sequel was horrible. What was it...Release Of The Jar Jar? God, it was so bad I've blocked out the title.

And with each and every subsequent post, you prove that you grow just a little dumber each and every day.
I don't think there's a single poster that's more clueless than you, whether it's football, college personnel, NFL personnel, movies or music. If there is, I hope he or she is neutered. |

Disney didn't acquire this franchise for the cost it did to finish a story the way people my age hope against hope to see. They got into this for money, plain and simple. To make huge money over long stretches of time, you do what Lucas did - you cater to the younger generations for sustainability. That is EXACTLY what Disney is going to do, as hinted at with a teenaged girl rumored to be the hero of the upcoming movie(s).
I get what you're saying SDH, and I for one would love to see an adult sized Star Wars movie about the Jedi Academy, Thrawn, Bane, or any number of the darker tellings of the Star Wars Universe, but the fact of the matter is we likely won't ever see anything resembling Empire come out of the Disney studios. They're Disney, for crying out loud. Sucks, but that's the way it likely will be, even though I hope I'm wrong. |

There are still plans for a new animated series set between ROTS and ANH and plans still exist for a live-action series set in that time period as well, which is definitely darker in tone. |

All Disney has to do is not have a hugely convoluted plot line. Since the Prequels are ****ed beyond repair, I have a..."New Hope" that somebody can make a simple, satisfying, action packed film that can make everyone happy for the most part. After the abortion of the prequels, I HAVE to watch these things...and hopefully they won't suck ass...

Exhibit A on the health risks of being an incredibly successful voice actor, apparently. |
