Hmm maybe the chances of LucasArts game going to a place like GOG are slightly improved?

Or dashed completely. No one quite knows what Disney is going to do with those IPs yet.

I'm going to try to stay optimistic that they hopefully won't treat them any worse than LucasArts did.

You never know. Maybe TTG will ask them to let them use some of the Lucasarts games like Monkey Island, Indiana Jones & maybe they might let them have S&M Freelance Police but that would be very very unlikely.

Probably Season 6 of Clone Wars.

Sadly, this also means no more 20th Century Fox music for these new Star Wars movies and no neat transitions from the Paramount mountain for Indiana Jones.

Fortunately, Disney/Marvel's big rivals have already had a television show like that.

But I think everybody's missing the BIG picture.....

THE STARS OF STAR WARS CAN RETURN TO THE MUPPET SHOW!!!!!

I know you guys don't like Kotaku, but they did mention one thing about this story that I found particularly heartening:

Make of that what you will, but it does leave me a little more hopeful for more Monkey Island et al.

I'd be surprised if they don't license the games out when asked by reliable, established studios. The deal cost them over $4,000,000,000 US dollars. Surely they won't mind getting some of that cash back through licensing deals.

Another thing I'm wondering, since it seems they're planning to use LucasArts as a development studio with the statement that they plan to make mobile and social games... I wonder if they'll keep the LucasArts staff to making Star Wars games, or if we might see some LucasArts developed Disney or Disney-Pixar projects as well.

Honestly, the big thing is "There Goes ILM". ILM and Pixar were already in trouble for collusion to, essentially, worsen the conditions for CG animators. Now that there's one less employer in the area, ILM and Pixar can treat CG animators as badly as they damn well please.

More of Steve Jobs' wet dream, but STILL scary.

In Drew Struzan's "Art of" books, he describes how he was treated both by Disney and Lucasfilm. Drew is friends with George Lucas, and still his disgust at the bunch of crappy suits is visible. While doing his Indy 4 poster, he even describes this treatment as the central experience forcing him to retire. But with George buying most of Drew's art for his own home, Drew would never complain. With Disney, he doesn't describe the suits. He describes a gross disregard of his work. Like the Adventures in Babysitting poster found in the Disney archives face down in a puddle of water. Like the Indy ride posters where Drew was forced to literally call up Harrison Ford to get permission to use his likeness, as Disney refused to do it themselves.

I can't say what the worst company for the creatives is. I really can't. But Disney is huge, and there are some pretty competent people at SOME places.

Since Disney acquired the Muppets in 2004, not exactly the worst things happened to the franchise. The last movie has at least sparked some rainbow colored tears in here, if I remember correctly.

But Disney WILL ride all its franchises to death, worse than Lucas ever could. What has been good and new with Pirates of the Caribbean will be something to puke on in movie number five.

What COULD have been good and new - the wonderful looking single player RPG "Armada of the Dead" based on the PotC franchise - was cancelled in development. Is this what we're facing for LucasArse Entertainment now, great announcements exploding midway in development?

I mean, it's not like this isn't exactly what LucasArts had been doing for some time, from Full Throttle to Sam & Max.

Concerning Star Wars VII - ah, well, whatever. In one of the articles Fawful has linked to Lucas tearfully proclaims that it more or less hasn't been his franchise any more anyway, as all the novels after Episode VI weren't meant to be canon anyway. With Star Wars, we have trodden in the inescapable realm of bad fan fiction for 15 years now. If Disney makes slightly better fan fiction, congrats and everything. Thumbs up.

But if Disney really sees LucasArts as what it has been for a decade now - "the guys who let other guys do Star Wars games", we really are fucked here. Is outsourcing even something Disney would do?? Because if not, ToMI2 will remain a dream forever.

And I REALLY do not want Disney to acquire Telltale.
Oh. Please. God. No.

While there's certainly a chance that this buy-out will prompt Disney's rivals to consolidate similarly, I'd say that Universal would be a more likely buyer for Telltale, if anybody hypothetically was going to. There'd be no point another studio making a grab for a computer games company if they'd have to surrender the best-selling licences that it's already got.

GOD DAMN IT DISNEY, STOP BUYING EVERYTHING I LOVE!

Okay, now that I'm done raging, I must say something here. I don't hate Disney or even dislike them. I just think that they've got way too much shit. Besides, now I have a reason to stop supporting 20th Century Fox.

I've talked to my bro about this, and all he could say was he hopes they won't F it up, but, considering LucasFilms already has done all it can to run the series to the ground, Disney can't do worse. In fact, if the Marvel Cinematic Universe is an indication, Disney just can't go wrong.

And I really think most are overreacting here. It's not like LucasFilms is disappearing, in fact, now with George Lucas out of the way, they probably have more freedom than ever.
