Considering how well Disney has done with films lately... this could be a good thing.

Gotta be better than Attack of the Clones or the Holiday Special!

Without Lucas casting or directing actors... at least the live actors will do much better jobs. He had a good eye for the visuals though... look development etc...

I was expecting the Onion...

There's no vibe!
Haven't you read what he said?

The boards have EXPLODED!

They did a good job with the Avengers...

I am more interested to learn if the next 3 movies will follow the EU a bit or go off on complete tangents as the Prequils did.

Almost certainly the latter. They might throw in a few EU references like the prequels did, but I'd be surprised if they did more than that. The more interesting question is when the trilogy's going to be set - far past, far future, or mixing it with the EU. If it's the latter I predict a shitstorm. Neither of the others would have much effect, with the possible exception of things like KotOR, the Darth Bane novels and the Legacy comics.
