George Lucas, announced last year, that he is retiring from making blockbuster movies for good. Now he’s passing the torch, to someone else to continue the Star Wars franchise. While Disney is preparing to buy Lucasfilm, they also acquired the rights from George Lucas to the Star Wars films. So yes, that means there will be a “Star Wars 7” on the way, slated for a 2015 release date.

Read the full story, here.

I guess, that’s good news that George is leaving the franchise, because the prequels were pretty much garbage except for Episode III “Revenge of the Sith”, which was a really good one.

This is a good chance for other film makers to make the Star Wars movies much better. Only problem though, I’m cool with any director making the movies, as long as Michael Bay, doesn’t touch them. Michael Bay, ruined the Transformers movies, we don’t need him ruining, Star Wars.
