Hurricane Sandy has really shaken shit up. Its been reported that Disney has acquired Lucasfilm for over 4 billion dollars and plans to release Star Wars Episode VII in 2015. The twitter/Facebook/Blogger verse has literally exploded with reactions.
I personally LOVE Disney, but I understand why people are hesitant to embrace them with opens arms. I mean it's Disney..... Its's supposed to be all about Princes and Princess living it Fantasylands. But you have to admit, the company has significantly changed over the years and its time to embrace the new Disney. It's not just about cute animated movies anymore. They are major players in the film industry with wildly successful live action franchises. We can't be afraid to admit Disney can be edgy and relevant. Disney has done a pretty good job with Marvel since purchasing them a few years back. Does anyone remember that little old movie The Avengers....... Yeah, I thought so. We just have to have faith, it's not like the last few Star Wars movie were anything incredibly special....
Here are some wonderful reactions to the news....
