    Well technically it has been living on. Star Wars Clone wars is a pretty big cash cow considering it continually sells toys, books, PJs, and is in the 4th season for the series. I could easily see more movies (the series started as a movie) as well. But it does look like they plan on making episode 7. So they are moving in their own direction with it.

    Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

    Link? Last I heard George was refusing to consider making any more. Edit: Just looked on the internet. WHAT?!!?! I don't know whether this is good or bad, considering it won't be by by George.

        Quote:

        Disney said in a statement that it would revive the “Star Wars” franchise with new feature films, and that Mr. Lucas would serve as creative consultant on them. Star Wars Episode 7 is scheduled to be released in 2015, with more films expected to follow, the company said.

        Link is in the OP. Lucas will be a consultant but Disney is the one that will make it as they are buying Lucas out.

          So, I just ran across this while looking at the news, but apparently Disney is in the process of buying Lucasfilms. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Disney Buying Lucasfilms for $4.05 billion.[^]

          Looks like Star Wars is beating out Star Trek. Wonder why?

                  I was reading that article and had it ready to paste in the Lounge when I saw this thread. I'm glad a repost was avoided and that my clipboard could be recycled into something useful! :)

                      I love the line from Space Balls where they call the princess a "Drewish Princess".
