   Disney now owns EVERYTHING that George Lucas did - Star Wars, The Clone   
   Wars, Indiana Jones, LucasFilm, LucasArts, Lucas Books, Skywalker Sound,   
   Industrial Light & Magic, etc., etc., including all the merchandising and   
   licensing rights ... they got a massive bargain.   
      
   The Clone Wars animated show will almost certainly moved to a Disney   
   channel (in countries where it's available, but may play on other networks   
   channels too in some countries) when a new season starts. The Cartoon   
   Network here in New Zealand / Australia already seems to have stopped   
   playing it and according to a letter in the local TV Guide they have "no   
   plans to repeat season 4".   
      
   All of the Star Wars comic books will also be moved from Dark Horse to   
   Marvel when the current contract finishes. Other contracts for books,   
   toys, etc. will  also be moved or renegotiated as they come up for   
   renewal.
