Iger did not reveal any casting news, other than to confirm the return of the robot character R2D2.

So that makes it what...about 100 years old?

They must not have union auto workers in the future.

[GeronL]

Unfortunately all the other characters are woollies, ewoks and whatever JarJar was.

Kidding

Hopefully, it will be less horrifically awful than Episodes 6, 1, 2, 3

[Mr. Jeeves]

The official Star Wars website posted on Monday the new films would feature "a trio of new young leads along with some very familiar faces,"...

Probably Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart...and Ben Affleck as Darth Hideous. :)

I am excited about these, but they’d kind of have to since in real life Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford (as well as Bill D. W.) have aged.

They are all supposed to return as well.

Why do I think of the line from “Mystery Theater 3000”
“Ah, the script has arrived!”

[Jeff Chandler]

This could end up worse than the Stones at the Superbowl.

Star Wars 30 years later?

Vader - dead
Skywalker - retired, can only move small objects, can change the TV without getting up
Leah - living in Florida...double hip replacement
Han Solo - killed by Chewie over a chess match
R2D2 - spare parts bin

[ExCTCitizen]

R2D2 Will be around? It might be an antique then...Star Wars made by the PC Disney Company? Jeez, will there be a gay character in it?

[DManA]

I was hoping they all lived happily everafter.

[Revolting cat!]

That makes it a pre-sequel, yes?

[left that other site]

If it’s Disney, it will be all CGI characters with just the voices of the actors.

The thing that made the ORIGINAL Star Wars so wonderful was that the SFX were done by hand on a shoestring, and looked great. As the franchise grew rich, the whole look of the movies suffered greatly.

[Revolting cat!]

The working title is 'Stairclimber Wars'.

[yarddog]

There will be an evil character whose name sounds like Ronald Reagan or Ted Cruz.

[chrisser]

I suspect the plot will revolve around something like ridding the universe of galactic warming deniers and fundamentalist jedis.

[shotgun]

As long there not a gray headed Jar Jar Binks!

[yarddog]

will we finally discover what Jar Jar’s hidden talents are and why Padme keeps him around?

[Borges]

The Star Wars phenomenon has always passed me by. I wish the whole thing would go away.

[JRios1968]

30 years after ROTJ?

So, the new movies will deal with the Invasion of the Galaxy by the SW Moozies, known as the Yuuzhan Vong.

[Revolting cat!]

Hollywood Communists want to distract us while WWIII rages on in Europe.

[Revolting cat!]

All I care is will Whippie Goldberg be in it again with her giant dildo?
