There's also mention that the Star Wars television series (of which 50 episodes were written, which supposedly centers around warring families on Courscant) penned by none other than the guy who revived Battlestar Galactica into a successful series I personally have no interest in watching.

Squee Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Wasn't really sure if this required a new thread or not... so I decided to post it here It's now official. J.J. Abrams is directing Star Wars Episode VII. I'm actually kinda pleased with this. http://collider.com/j-j-abrams-star-wars/ Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/76311-disney-buys-lucasfilm/page/11/#findComment-1937719 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebraska Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) i'm glad i was never a star wars fan because this would actually be bad news. this guy is the seth macfarlane of hollywood. and the sad part is that he's also signed up to do another star trek movie. might as well just throw every other remake his way so we get massive box sets of crap rehashes on blu-ray Edited January 25, 2013 by Nebraska Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/76311-disney-buys-lucasfilm/page/11/#findComment-1937777 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zaphod Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 he's a total hack and only seems to know how to market a film, not make one. so he's probably the perfect choice for star wars.

Guest Frankie5fingers Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 i think youve all forgotten the fact that the three prequels were fucking horrible. anyone would be a step up from those shitty ass movies. granted JJ may not be the best choice, but its still better than what George Lucas was doing.

FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work!
