Ok, this new entry won't be very long. But I just have to say... holy hell, Lucasfilm has been bought by Disney? I can't decide if I should cheer, cry, or just... just... I don't know what.
Very little could be done in a new film that would be worse than Phantom Menace, I suppose. But that still doesn't mean I am sanguine about seeing Lucasfilm get subsumed by the land of Donald Duck. Unlike some of my friends, I am not a rabid Disneyana fan. At the same time, I really WANT this to be great news, especially considering that a new Star Wars film is supposedly due out now in 2015 with others following a year or two behind. That should be cause for rejoicing.
But with first the disappointments of the prequel trilogy, and now the Great Unknown of the whole kit and kaboodle being bought up by Someone Else... I just can't quite rejoice. Yet.
If this becomes a reason to be happy later, though, I will be VERY VERY happy to be... happy!
And that's about all I can say about that for the moment.
