Disney shuts down LucasArts, Star Wars 1313 and
by Ethan Anderton January 30, 2013 Source: THR Following the official news that J.J. Abrams had been hired by Disney to direct Star Wars: Episode VII , there have been talks that the Star Trek reboot filmmaker might not be committed to bringing the film to theaters in 2015 as was originally expected. This was mostly speculation and conjecture, but now THR has published a profile on Lucasfilm's new head honcho Kathleen Kennedy and she tapdances, "Our goal is to move as quickly as we can, and we’ll see what happens. The timetable we care about is getting the story.” That's good news, especially since cracking the story is what got Abrams signed to direct Star Wars .
Kathleen Kennedy Admits 'Star Wars: Episode VII' May Not Hit in 2015
Set against the thrilling and exotic backdrop of a “galaxy far, far away,” Star Wars is perfectly suited to the immersive 3D theatrical experience, and Episode I delivers some of the Saga’s most stunning and spectacular sequences – from the Naboo invasion to the Tatooine Podraces to the climactic lightsaber battle between Darth Maul and the Jedi. Supervised by Industrial Light & Magic, the meticulous conversion is being done with utmost respect for the source material, and with a keen eye for both technological considerations and artistic intentions.

Wampa attacks, blue milk, and incestuous make-out sessions = the Star Wars deleted scenes
Interesting that they did try to add Rebel pilots who weren't human males. I'd speculate the Sullustan and Mon Cal weren't used because they look exactly like Nien Numb and Ackbar respectively, and would confuse most viewers as to what each character was suddenly doing in a fighter. And the female pilots, well, the lines just were flat even by Lucas standards. I'd always wished the various re-releases would improve the battle of Endor to give a more epic sense of two fleets head to head and show the B-wings in action, how the capital ships engaged, and what the heck all those cargo ships were for. We see a Star Destroyer blow up and the Executor taken out; the pilot chatter in the deleted scene suggests the Rebels had a strategy for it.

I know a lot of people who are not excited about the upcoming Blu-ray Star Wars saga. I've been told by several people that they are not going to buy them because they wont give George Lucas anymore of their money or the satisfaction. I'll believe it when I see it. I'm not a big fan of many of the changes that Lucas has made, I've done my share of complaining, but I'm still going to be honest and tell you that I'm going to buy the damn original trilogy on Blu-ray.Ethan Miller/Getty Images NEW YORK – George Lucas says 50 hours of scripts have been written for a Star Wars live-action TV show, but is waiting for a technological breakthrough to make shooting financially feasible and get the series on the air, the New York Post reported Tuesday.
