So in conclusion, a pile of fabric makes a better, more gorgeous Liz than Lilo could ever hope to.
i thought they bought it a looong time ago.
don’t they have Star War Weekends at Disney Park for a while now?
This nerd is not excited.
To be fair disney bought up Marvel 4 years ago and so far they’ve pretty much only done awesome (and true to the original) things e.g. the new Avengers film
This nerd is worried about it, although it really couldn’t be worse than what Lucas did with the prequels. Could it? Say no, please.
Devastating. What a greedy sellout. Star Wars spin off is one thing. Heck, Disney probably could make a better SW film than Lucas can any more, his prequels were terrible. But for the love of all that is good in the universe, WHY must they screw around with the storyline & characters from the original trilogy?! Leave well enough alone! The SW trilogy is perfect the way it is. It does NOTneed any sequels >:(
edittedddd
Sofia is just soooo friggin’ gorgeous. Sigh.
Sofia is so gorgeous and has a great sense of humor. Um…did Ellen have to use a “fat suit” under the dress? The body shape was way more Kim Kardashian than Sofia- Sofia is not that big at *all*!
A couple of things…
* was that REALLY a banana in Sasha Baron Cohen’s pants?
* Ellen was adorable as Sophia Vergara! Loved it…laughed till I had tears 🙂
totally OT: is Ryan Gosling again with Eva Mendes?
because i follow Malick movie with Gosling,Portman and Fassbender on IMDB and twitter and no body saw Eva Mendes at Austin or in the set! i only saw several candids with Mendes at LA
Eva is filming in LA but she has been visiting Ryan in Austin.

**ques Episode III Darth Vader**
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!
Hahaha, I saw that awful film once in the cinema when it first came out and that is the only bit I remember, probably because it managed to out crap itself and be the most ridiculous moment in a ridiculous movie…. and now, just when I thought it was safe to go back in the cinema I hear a 7th one is on the works *sigh*
Those Miley pictures must be from last year, right? Her hair is longish/brown and in her “trademark” high bun. Unless she dyed her hair brown and got extensions?
I saw a pic of her as Nikki Minaj and it was actually an excellent costume. It was on Jezebel today.
i saw on another site that it was her sister brandi cyrus
Did you guys see that Cracky McBlohan is claiming her twitter was hacked and the hacker was the one who wrote the Hurricane Sally tweet? hahahahahahahahahah
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA she’s such a loser!
LMAO! So funny!
My response to the post about Hurricane Sally was going to be “I wonder what stupid excuse/reason she’s going to have for posting such an obviously stupid, braindead tweet?” Turns out that the excuse is that she was hacked.
What a total and utter dipshit she is!
I haven’t watched Faux News in a long time but that Gov. Christie clip was great. That’s a great example of what this country is capable of (even though we don’t see it often). Regardless of political affiliation, people can put aside difference and simply say thanks for good work.
Celebitchy, I love you and I love NASCAR, so while I don’t mind seeing ads for Homestead coming up in a few weeks, I do mind seeing that doosh Tony Stewrat(yes I meant StewRat). I hate him. He is an asshole who stole my drivers trophy last year and I don’t like being reminded about it. Horrible experience. Mmmkay. Thanks! 🙂
Oh, cool. So glad to hear another Star Wars is coming!!
Smart move by George. He ‘s lost the desire to do more Star Wars films so he offloaded the franchise for a cool four billion. Well done.
I’m a BIG Star Wars fan, soI’m scared, but also a little curious. Lucas had originally planned to do eps 7, 8 & 9, so I’m wondering how much of his original story ideas they’re planning to use?
Surely they can’t be any worse than the prequels? I didn’t mind episode 3, but 1 & 2 were terrible! They only good thing about them was Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi!

I hope they stop after another three movies though. We don’t need any more retouched versions, or special editions, or god forbid reboots or crossovers with other Disney movies!
“I have a bad feeling about this”
“Star Wars VIII The Final Sell-Out”
I felt a great disturbance in The Force at this announcement. Being a die-hard fan since I was SEVEN YEARS OLD I can only say wholeheartedly “WTF”.
George Lucas what the hell have you unleashed on us.
There’s no Ewoks dancing on Endor at this news.
I sense a great disturbance in the force!
Madness and wtf, Yoda and Goofy?!
NO! Bad touch! Bad touch!
Lucas, for the love of humanity, stop beating a dead horse! Most of your fans will thank you for it.
Star Wars: The Musical starring Shia as Han Solo
Lucas is a member of the Giving Pledge,a philanthropic initiative started by the business mogul and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, aims to get the super rich to pledge their fortunes early in their lives, so that they can have more control of how it’s spent. He said by selling ILM, he will be able to give much bigger donations toward education (he’s already given single donations up to 175 million, and that’s before the selling of his company). I rather have more Star Wars than less, I know nothing compares to the original 3 movies, but as long as ppl enjoy them, thats all that matters, and I love seeing the love of SW being passed on generation to generation.
Sooo looking at the pics of Katy Perry with her dad at the Lakers game…how long till if comes out like papa Joe?
Hope it doesn’t stop each scene with crappy pop music. I have to mute each cartoon or movie during those terrible singing scenes in every awful disney movie.
It is so unfair that they kept bashing the prequels. I love the prequels more than the sequels. I can watch the prequels over and over again without getting tired. The prequels made tons of money too. What is this a conspiracy? Guys be kind to George. Without him we don’t have Star Wars remember?
uhhhh…..no. Sorry, but I won’t do that. I’ve seen the original films, one in the cinema, and had to suffer through the multiple alterations. A 70’s movie in everything, regarding haircuts, wardrobes, sets, and with 90’s CGI. Just….no.
My husband is a member of the 501st so he’s a bit concerned about that with this buyout. He was also hoping they would do the Zahn series, and he was disappointed when Disney said they are doing an original story. Other than that, it has no effect on me…not a Star Wars fan. 😀
I do hope the 501st/Rebel Legion will remain as it is or get even better. They do amazing work (all volunteer and pricey out of pocket expenses) and raise A LOT of money for charities every year both on a local and nation-wide scale.
There was already going to be a Star Wars 7, 8, and 9 way before Disney bought it. From what I remember reading when they first talked about it was that the movies were supposed to follow the books in the way of the movies following the children of our favorite protagonists.
