   too mvch book product is already poisoning the star wars experience, but   
   too many MOVIES will kill it PERMANENTLY.   
      
   Disney might already be working on Star Wars spinoff films

   We already knew  that Disney has hired a stable of writers to put   
   together some future Star Wars filmsâ€"but apparently those might   
   not be the sequels we were expecting.   
   According to The Hollywood Reporter  , previously hired writers   
   Lawrence Kasdan ( The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi) and Simon   
   Kinberg ( Sherlock Holmes, X-Men: First Class) might be working on   
   spinoff films as opposed to the "proper" Star Wars Episodes: VIII-IX.   
   When Kinberg and Kasdan were hired, everyone assumed they were working   
   on the next two episodes of the sequel trilogy. But now it looks like   
   Disney is taking a page out of its Avengers playbook, and could be   
   setting up some films set in the Star Wars universe to increase its   
   output with the franchise.   
   It makes sense they'd want to capitalize as much as possible on the   
   brand with extra films and release one every few years as previously   
   mentioned, and if it's done well it could mean a ton of new stories to   
   expand the existing canon. If it stinks, then it's a moot point anyway.   
   But the report also notes these spinoffs could become full-fledged   
   sequels to the Skywalker journey down the line, so it seems Disney has   
   yet to nail down its exact strategy.   
   What do you think? Would you prefer additional film spinoffs, or just a   
   direct trilogy of sequels?
