J.J. Abrams is looking like a pretty solid candidate to bring Star Wars back into legitimacy, as his warm-up for Star Wars Episode VII is rocks an 87% on rottentomatoes:

A brand new Star Wars trilogy is not all Disney has in mind, as a matter of fact the mass-media corporation says that at least one spin-off film is also “in the works”:

Quote1.pngWe are in fact working on a few stand-alone films,” says Disney CEO Bob Iger. (Lawrence) Kasdan and Simon Kinberg are both working on films derived from great Star Wars characters that are not part of the overall saga.  So we plan to make Star Wars VII, VIII and IX over roughly a six-year period of time starting in 2015. But there are going to be a few other films released in that period of time too.Quote2.png

Ya go ahead and sign me up for all of that.  Thanks.

Naturally speculation about potential “standalone films” has run amuck: everyone from Boba Fett to Yoda to a young Han Solo to a Seven Samurai Jedi Knight Ensemble Film are rumored as possibilities.  The last one sounding pretty boss.  Oh wait.  Nevermind.  It was Zack Snyder’s idea.  And let’s be honest with ourselves.  That guy is a baddie.

  1. This is a well-written and smart article. That said, you have an exorbitant ridiculous amount of links in each sentence. It’s almost ADD inducing. I know you want to make money off of this site but it is so distracting that it tarnishes the work and the time you took to even write this article. You need to chop the number of links down to a 1/4-th of what you have.

      1. The links up my google algorithm potency, each link to relevant content boosts my google rank. That is probably subconsciously why there is an extraneous amount of links in all my blogs my sincerest apologies I will try and reduce the clutter again thanks for your input ; ).

  2. Spock always struck me as Inspector Guardian. I would imagine that the ‘first’ Vulcans, the ones who defined the tenets of Vulcan society, would definitely be Rationals, but Spock is much more likely to follow regulations than strict logic.
