It's funny how so many morons seem to equate Disney with kiddie animation and musicals, ignoring the wide range of mature content they have their fingers in. People seem to love knee jerk alarmist reactions, or we're just really susceptible to it from confirmation bias. if you don't think this is a good thing, you're really ignorant about what it means.

This just in: Disney cancels Star Wars: The Clone Wars

In other news: Disney shuts down LucasArts and lays off all of it's workers pretty much screwing them for life and crushing any chances of new games.

Yeah, they messed it up big time.

My reaction to if my company sold the Total War film series to Disney by 2020.

[dwfanandidents007]

Dear Disney. I like you but I want to say that next year. The Home Alone Franchise will transferred to here before Star Wars in 2020. So thanks for accompanying me.

Dear Disney you have dissapointed me a lot. You canelled amazing SW series The Clone Wars, you cancelled 3D saga release of classic SW movies and you closed Lucasarts. Fuck Disney, I am done with SW and bad decision for George that he sold this to Disney

[dwfanandidents007]

I can pick Disney for my Total War films next year because I'm a Disney fan.

all i was saying is that im glad it was disney that he decided to give it to. not universal nor paramount or whatever the heck the other ones are. im not saying that im glad that he did it though. what lucas did with his company and all the workers was his problem and his decision...so again, all im saying is that if he was going to give his company away to anybody, i believe disney was the best choice...and yes it sucks about the new games and the workers. i agree.

A Deal with the Devils!!!..

@sicario011 Yeah, but unlike Marvel, they are fucking up the entire franchise by shutting down/canceling everything and laying off poor workers all to focus on a stupid sequel that won't be coming out for 2 YEARS!!! And they're starting to screw up marvel too. They canceled Avengers: EMH (dumb move) and insulted the Ultimate Spider-Man by making it a horrible comedy show.
