Except Clone Wars is not Disney. That may have changed with the LucasFilm acquisition but last I heard, someone else holds the rights on that one and it was uncertain as to whether or not Disney now controlled that. That was about a month ago that I last knew that though.

The only problem I have is that Disney will soon own almost everything. ESPN; Pixar; LucasFilms; and Industrial Light and Magic (Fomer parent company of Pixar. Ironic, huh?).
Disney is also now trying to purchase Hasbro. This would give them GI Joe; A large chunk of board/card games; Magic: The Gathering; and Wizards of the Coast (D&D).
Perhaps the Mayans were correct?

Somehow, I don't think the Mayan's knew that the end of the world would be brought about by a cartoon mouse.....
That is kinda disturbing how much of our popular media Disney will have a hand in, though. Never really thought of it that way. In this particular avenue, though, I don't think Disney can do worse that Lucas did himself (eg. Jar Jar Binks) in the last (first?) three episodes.
Also, I think Disney can afford some decent writers...I think the writers in the last two movies were ex-soap opera writers...Horrible dialog between Padme and Annakin. Though it could be that there was just horrible screen chemistry between Natalie Portman and Hayden Christensen.....Who knows
But Disney can't do much worse than that, IMHO...
Qapla'!

I think they thought that (being a Canadian) Hayden Christensen would have that Bill Shatner appeal but they missed the ship on that one.
I think that Disney will take their time on this one. If we are lucky in the next 5 years technology will progress so much that a digital scan of Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford will allow them to have the original actors playing themselves in the final 3 movies. They could just have any female actor playing Carrie Fisher’s part b/c I will be just staring at the gold lamé dress.
Lucus said he had no intention of doing the last three movies, I think Disney will and learn from the Jar Jar love scenes ;)

For the record... I liked John Carter and I thought it was a great family film (I have four kids, all of which liked the movie).

jar... jar... or... wesly... who should be killed with fire the first is the question i guess ¬¬
