They might as well have a crack at it, couldn't be any worse than the last 3 yawn-fests.
...or could it..?

yeah, but we're likely going to see stuff like Kurt Russell, Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom running around with lightsabres... and Lindsay Lohan acting like Jar Jar!

I did too, Rain. I'm actually not sure this is a good thing!
@ bapu - I think there have been multiple court sightings of Jar jar which might have been a case of mistaken identity.

Have you seen 'John Carter'? There were tons of Jar Jars in that.

It all depends on who the get to write and direct. Could be good or bad.
I was also fairly entertained by episode 1-3--OK, maybe not so much by Jar-Jar. He was good for one or two jokes and they kept him around much too long.

That they bought it...no big surprise. They have had a lot more luck buying other people's creativity lately than making their own.
Bought Marvel, made John Carter..nuf said.
That they paid 4 BILLION dollars for it...well it is going to require selling a lot of Darth Vader dolls at Disneyland to make that make sense.
That Lucas sold his private company and its assets for that amount of money and now plans to pursue a charity and "experimental" films...priceless.
Clearly I should have made a few blockbuster movies to see me through my retirement.
