Star Wars Episode VII Details Leak

Tools    





I'm a little worried that we are about to be saturated with Star Wars movies, spin offs, TV shows over the next 10 years to the point that Star Wars loses it's magic. The original trilogy is so revered, which makes me worried that endless Star Wars will take the glean off them even more that the Prequels did.
I think this is going to be great for kids my age and younger. Because my dad watches Sci Fi and fantasy so much I can quote Yoda and other genre icons. Unfortunately when we make Star Wars jokes (dad will say "when 50 years old you become, look as good you will not) in the gym (my dad owns a gymnastics gym) the kids don't have a clue what we are talking about. It's pitiful. Then we test them with "do you know who Yoda is?" and they look at us with that dear in the headlights look and say "who?". AAAArrrgggg!

Let's hope a new series of Star Wars movies will enlighten these poor young souls who obviously have parents that don't care about their education and would leave them in the dark.



Apparently the script is undergoing a rewrite.

Expected to be finished in January now.

Sounding good already if they're taking time to write it up.

Had some budgetary news too...

A New Hope - $11m... Adjusted for inflation: $45M
The Empire Strikes Back - $23m... Adjusted for inflation: $75m
Return Of The Jedi - $32.5m... Adjusted for inflation: $40m
The Phantom Menace - $115m... Adjusted for inflation: $165m
Attack Of The Clones - $115m... Adjusted for inflation: $145m
Revenge Of The Sith - $115m... Adjusted for inflation: $135m

Episode VII has reached £200m already, and counting.



So now that JJ is doing Star Wars, will Star Trek and Star Wars become the same? Will their universes collide and rip a hole in the time-space continuum?
