I thought there was something wrong with Lucas when he 're-did' his three original movies and made them special editions. I mean, you just don't do that. A movie is a movie and its done. Final-wrap and that's it. Live with it.
I liked the originals the way they were without all that CGI added. And I still have those on VHS. The only good thing about the new episodes 1, 2 and 3 was seeing Vader born. Other than that it has all been driven into the ground and the magic has been put through the ringer and twisted til the last drop has fallen. And now this. It will be truly driven into the ground now and more than six feet under.

Lucas was so tight and over powering on everything star wars - until he had milked every last drop... No he sells it, it gets rehashed every which way with Disney... Makes sense.
Just remember kids! - Everyone and everything has a price!

Star Wars needs some sort of revival.
Lucas had his fist tightly in the series, but later he messed it up with the new preequals. And Joss Wheldon said something where he ruined a great moment in cinematic history, by the original trilogy taking away from the Luke I'm your father moment. But alot of star wars fans really did want to see Anakin become Vader. Which is legit but Lucas didn't really hit his stride until the 3rd in the new trilogy. But for the new ones, Lucas didn't capture the essence and feeling that the Original Trilogy did. Which is weird because he primarily made it up. He did have gifted writers helping him out also. Another problem with the novels / new trilogy is I feel they stray too far from the originals also. The Force was down graded from a spiritual mystical aspect to a biological component, oh more midichlorians = more pwnage, and borrowing from the Bible . . . Lucas' new trilogy didn't have the character interactions that the original trilogy did. Despite Lucas having an iron fist, the Star Wars extended universe had alot of releases that were jokes. Some novels had a blob enemy as the main bad guy, others had a biological alien creatures unable to use the force but were evil and conquering and hated droids (like GI Joe's biological enemies). Some gems were there like the Thrawn Trilogy that really captured the essence of Star Wars that the Original Trilogy did. Or the video games, of PC knights of the Old Republic, and also the Force Unleashed story line (not the second one though). The clone wars animation are pretty good, but imho they are more action oriented, and doesn't have the depth . . . But in the end it comes down to this: If Disney does to Star Wars what it did with Pixar and Marvel, then Star Wars is in for a revival. If Disney can let people direct (and also use Lucas' input) and make Star Wars that is similar to the original movies, its good. If they capture what made star wars, star wars (set it apart from Battle Star Galactic and Star Trek & other space operas . . .) If Disney does what it did to its own animation and development studios, its own animation movies, and what it did to John Carter Mars series . . . ouch . . . Star Wars will finally die as it's been suffering from mediocrity for a long time. And we wont know until that first movie is made . ..

Disney can actually stop Lucas further vandalizing his original triology. Look at what he has done: Solo doesn't fire first, adding CGI to 70s movies, the face of young Anakin at the end of episode 6. Come on Disney, get rid of these sick "artistic touches" and re-release the original triology as it used to be.
Concerning future films, I don't really worry or be excited very much. Even under Lucas's hand the prequel triology fails quite miserably to match the epicness of the original one (it did have some shining moments though). It's now the time to start a new Star wars in its new way. Look at 007 series. Everyone hated Daniel Craig as the new Bond, but after 3 films with quite different style from the old flamboyant version, the new series really got its deserved stand in 007 fandom.
