   Jar Jar Abrams is already there - he was in charge of making the   
   pointless "reboot" movie.  :-(   
      
   If Disney simply wanted to make a clone, why bother wasting huge piles   
   of money buying the Lucas empire at all. Simply make a Star Wars   
   rip-off and call it something else ("Sun Battles" / "Solar Clashes")   
   ... of course they have already tried that with "John Carter" and   
   failed, so that's probably why.
