Can Emma Watson be the new Leia? And Emma Stone be Mara Jade?

Does this mean we'll see Kermit the frog in a Star Wars?

You'll all thinking too small. Get ready for an entire Star Wars theme park to compete with the Harry Potter park.

We went to the Harry Potter park a few months ago and I was thinking, "I can't believe there isn't a true Star Wars Land."

Another director suggestion: Ben Affleck.

Too bad none of the people who still somehow manage to give a poo poo about Kingdom Hearts franchise care about the Disney part. That'd make a killer game.

MGM Studios has had a Star Wars and Indiana Jones part of the park for a while.

Yes, but imagine it spread across a whole park. Not just one ride.

In a world that makes sense, this would be a given. But in a world that makes sense, Firefly wouldn't have been cancelled in the first place and Fox wouldn't be sitting on the rights and doing nothing at all with them while they renew American Dad for another season.

Masturbatory fantasizing ahead, feel free to skip.

Directors I'd like to see have a shot at it:

James Cameron (AS LONG AS HE'S NOT ALLOWED NEAR THE SCRIPT)
Peter Jackson
Bryan Singer (Superman Returns did not happen)
Brad Bird
Christopher Nolan
Alfonso Cuaron

And yes, I realize that most are heavily involved in other stuff.


They already did. I really doubt he'll have much creative control. If they get a strong director, he'll patiently listen while George tells him about the power of myth and blah blah blah. Then he'll do his own thing.

It's gonna be Michael Bay

I'm baffled by the love for Fillion in that role (and I like him as an actor). He doesn't project as tough to me. My front runner would be Josh Holloway. Hell, on Lost, he practically was Han Solo.

Jesus man, do you really feel THAT burned by the prequels? Of course directors and actors are going to be lining up the loving block for this - it's loving Star Wars. Without George Lucas directing.
