User blog:Shrek CWA/Why I Believe Star Wars Owned By Disney Will Be Great

NOTE: POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD.

The general opinion outside of this wiki appears to be the same as mine, Disney owning Lucasfilms will only help Star Wars. However, Disney aquiring Star Wars is clearly not very well recieved around here. If you are one of the many people who believe this, please take time to read this blog, and hopefully be persuaded to change your opinion.

Introduction
Before I start off, I do think many popular beliefs and rumors circulating around here should be debunked.


 * Disney did not have any involvement in Clone Wars Adventures shutting down, it was all Sony Online Entertainments decision (Probably because of the fact they needed to make room for a bigger game, and thought CWA was one of the four best candidates to be closes down.


 * Disney TECHNICALLY does not own Star Wars, they own Lucasfilm, who are still being runned by the same people. They are only PRODUCING and DISTRIBUTING Star Wars related things.
 * Producers are the main players in the television, film and video industries. A producer will oversee each project from conception to completion and may also be involved in the marketing and distribution processes. Producers work closely with directors and other production staff on the shoot.
 * A film distributor is a company or individual responsible for the marketing of a film. The distributor may set the release date of a film and the method by which a film is to be exhibited or made available for viewing: for example, directly to the public either theatrically or for home viewing A distributor may do this directly, if the distributor owns the theaters or film distribution networks, or through theatrical exhibitors and other sub-distributors. A limited distributor may deal only with particular products, such as DVDs or Blu-ray, or may act in a particular country or market.


 * Disney will not kiddify Star Wars at all. Due to many of Disney's films such as the Disney Princess films franchise, and Pixar people are idiotically going under the belief they will shape Lucasfilms to be aimed more at children then teens and adults. However, people tend to forget about other IPs and franchises owned by Disney: Marvel Studios. Anyone who is a comic book fan as I can AGREE that Disney is handling Marvel Studios and the related characters more properly (and, closer to source material) then other film studios (Fox, who owns X-Men related films and The Fantastic Four. Sony who owns Spider-Man film rights, and Warner Bros. who own rights to create DC films.) However, I will admit that Disney MAY create things aimed at a younger audience (But, that was beginning before Disney aquire Lucasfilms, so it shouldn't be that big of a problem.)
 * This point is more opinionated, but I believe that George Lucas was only making the Star Wars franchise worst, the best things that have happened to it were not as involved with Lucas (Star Wars 7) as other things were (The prequels).

Star Wars 7
Next to maybe Avengers 3, Star Wars 7 might just be the biggest film Disney will ever help create, it will be the film that proves to absolutely everyone that Star Wars is in the right hand. And prove to that it will. And just to get nitpicking out of the way (because someone will point it out.) Let's be completely honest with ourselves, nostalgia aside, the Stormtrooper helmets are MUCH BETTER then before.


 * Writers - Lawrence Kasdan (Star Wars V, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Various upcoming SW films.) and JJ Abrams (Mission Impossible III, Star Trek.)
 * Lawrence Kasdan has written Star Wars V, and according to Rotten Tomatoes, is the most well recieved Star Wars film of all time. And whether you like JJ Abrams or not, it can't be denied that many fans walked out of Star Wars believing that it was closer to Star Wars then Star Trek.
 * Producers - Kathleen Kennedy (E.T: The Extra-Terrestrial, Jurassic Park.), Bryan Burk (Multiple films distributed by Bad Robot Productions.)
 * Just by looking at those two films Kathleen has produced, you can tell SW7 will be big, and in my opinion, many of Bad Robot Production films are great.
 * Director - JJ Abrams
 * See: Writers
 * Actors
 * David Boyega (Attack the Block) - David Boyega, like many of the new actors in Star Wars, are newer to the acting industry, similar to how the original cast was before Star Wars. However, he has already been nominated for eight different acting related awards, and has won one of them. I also think it should be pointed out that rumors suggest his role will be a rogue stormtrooper (And, before "EU experts" point out he's black, it should be noted that after A New Hope, it is said the empire began recruiting people other then clones. It should also be noted that that is from the EU, clearly they are not trying to completely forget the EUs existance.)
 * Daisey Ridley (The Inbetweeners 2) - Star Wars 7 will be the third film in her career, and has yet to be nominated for any acting related awards. But really, do you think they would be signing on terrible actors for as I've stated before, their BIGGEST movie? Nope. Her role is rumored to be the lead of the film, and team up with David Boyega's character to go in search for Luke Skywalker.
 * Adam Driver (Girls) - Adam Driver has been nominated for an award for his work in the show Girls. It is currently unknown what his role in the film will be.
 * Oscar Isaac (Inside Llewyn Davis) - Despite currently having a small filmography, Oscar Isaac has already been nominated for 22 awards, and recieved more then half of them. That's pretty impressive.
 * Andy Serkis (The Lord of The Rings trilogy, The Hobbit Trilogy, Avengers: Age of Ultron.) - Andy Serkis is known for heavily working in motion captured roles (Gollum, Ceasar, etc.) and is pretty dang good at it. He is clearly playing an alien of some sort in this film.
 * Domhall Gleeson (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows) - His role is currently unspecified.
 * Max Von Sydow (The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, Ghostbusters II) - Looking over his filmography, you can tell he is known for his voice. He has also won and been nominated for awards for many of his roles.
 * The Original Cast - No words need to be said here. Luke is rumored to be in some sort of "Obi-Wan" type role, and Han is SPECULATED (Not rumored.) to have a dramatic death.
 * Gwendoline Christie (Game of Thrones) - She is best known for her role in Game of Thrones (which is considered a very great series.) Her role is rumored to be Boyega's character imperial commanding officer who goes hunting for him throughout the film.
 * Lupita N'yongo (12 Years a Slave) - Having only been in 3 films, she has been nominated for almost 40+ acting awards. Enough said.
