I honestly had to check the date to be sure it wasn't 1 Apr.
Who knows- maybe it'll be awesome. Hard to believe that ILM and Skywalker are now Disney properties, though...

I gotta say, I was a huge SW geek, but had no idea he wrote a 7th, 8th, and 9th episode. I'll have to look into those. I read dozens of SW books back in HS, maybe I have.
Either way, I'm with everyone else, can't get any worse.

Lucas didn't, Timothy Zahn did.

The "Thrawn Trilogy" books were authorized by Lucas and LucasFilm as a continuation of the StarWars storyline in the early 90's to see if the franchise still had any legs. It spawned quite the revival and acted as the catalyst to start work on 1,2 & 3, and the "reissue" of 4,5 & 6.
Notice Zahn has no writing credits for 1,2 & 3, that would be your boy Lucas again

"In 2015, we’re planning to release Star Wars Episode 7 – the first feature film under the “Disney-Lucasfilm” brand. That will be followed by Episodes 8 and 9 – and our long-term plan is to release a new Star Wars feature film every two to three years."
Not sure if I like the new film every two to three years. Is that after the do 7, 8, and 9?
