George Lucas, why don't you just take that pen and stick right in the Galaxy's eye? We Star Wars fans work hard. And you do this? You betray your own people?...You can put your name on everything, you can cut TCW series short, it's fine, it's fine. But you destroy all that work hard & sign Star Wars to f***ing Disney right in front of us? WHO THE F*** DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? You know what, why do you take a s*** in Vader's helmet and feed it to Anakin Skywalker's crying ghost, you son of a bitch!

thier probably lying about making 7,8,9 I mean they even shutdown Lucas arts so that says alot right

[Bender Rodriguez]

Why does everyone think disney will ruin Star Wars? George wasn't even going to make a 7, 8, and 9. Just Be happy that Disney is making more Star Wars movies.
