And in news that no one could have possibly seen coming: the Walt Disney Company is buying Lucasfilms and is putting Star Wars Episode 7 into production.

While the acquisition is a bit surprising, Disney and Lucasfilm have had a very long relationship. Star Wars and Indiana Jones have been in the Disney parks for many decades. It certainly makes more sense to me than the Marvel acquisition did.

It does definitely make sense, but I never would have expected them to actually buy Lucasfilms AND put more Star Wars into production.
As far as I am concerned, having Lucas out of the lead is only going to improve the studio's prospects. He has gotten to the point where no one edits him anymore, leading to major suckitude. We need editing. We need people who can look at our Babies with fresh perspective and ruthlessness. I hope Disney pulls that off.

You make a good point. I retract my previously stated "Fuck. No.".
I'll tell you exactly what happened. In 2001, they bought Hanna Barberra and turned it from a full fledged production house into just a brand name. The newest things you see in that 2002 image are the last things HB ever made.
Anyway, that sadness aside, I think I just found my new badass fight montage music:

4. Well, duh.

Brosnan is still my favorite bond.
