   Your Name to All   
   [NEWS] Lucas sells everything to Disney

   NNNnnnnoooooooo....!!!!   :o(   
      
      
   It's being reported all over the place that "Star Wars" creator George   
   Lucas has sold everything to Disney - all of his various companies   
   (LucasFilm, ILM, Skywalker Sound, LucasArts, etc.) and the entire Star   
   Wars franchise.   
      
   I can only guess that George Lucas was disappointed by the rather   
   lacklustre reception to the (frankly pointless and hopeless) 3D-erised   
   release of Episode I.   
      
   It remains to be seen what this means for the Clone Wars animated TV show,   
   the planned live-action TV show, the fifth Indiana Jones movies, and   
   everything else ... but the over-egoed, money-grubbers are already   
   planning a rushed, ill-fitting "Episode 7" movie (over-seen by Lucas) to   
   be released in 2015, followed by new Episode 8 and 9 movies every two   
   years. Another great franchise destroyed by Hollyweird.   :o(
