Apparently it's based on Luke, Leia, and Han. The original actors are really old by now and recasting would just be wrong. These 3 characters ARE Star Wars!

i'll miss vader he was way more star wars than luke, leia or han.

i think they should avoid original characters completely. start afresh.

Well Disney made Tron, so I won't completely give up on them. Still, wtf move.

Nothing to see here

Just wait for the Star Wars themed park at Disney World or Disneyland

I can't be any worse then the prequels . With no Lucas in the way, this has the potential to be great. I can't wait!

Lucas will apparently be a "creative consultant", so he's definitely going to be in the way.

That being said, he couldn't have gone to a better company with this.
Now if only he would also give back the IPs of Monkey Island, Maniac Mansion/Day of the Tentacle and Full Throttle to their creators...

yeah I didn't read that before I posted. Looks like he can still fuck it up, but I believe

Being a Creative Consultant doesn't mean he'll have much input on the final product. Gene Roddenberry was a Creative Consultant on most of the Star Trek movies, including Wrath Of Khan, which he intensely disliked. Didn't stop it from being the best damn movie of that franchise.

This. The Zahn books are pretty damned good!
