As the title says, Disney will purchase LucasFilm and release "Star Wars: Episode 7" in 2015. George Lucas has finally called it quits. I'll be interesting to see where the new film falls in the timeline. As a Star Wars fan, I hope that the new film will revitalize the brand in the same way that the remakes and Episodes 1-3 did. What're everyone else's thoughts on this?

And if you don´t know John Scalzi, i recommend his books. I´m not a big SF fan, but i like his humor and his books are very entertaining military SF.

This has been known for years. It was even in a movie! Truth is stranger than fiction, eh?
