Just a general thread for any news items you find online that don't fit into a resort theme.

For starters, this article on LucasFilm/Star Wars properties to follow the strategy template of Marvel in regards to film releases:

Hmmm, since he is going at the movie division, have they had an original product that was their own property in the last 50 years? A lot of high grossing derivate stuff, but usually the original stuff doesn't perform as well (like Tron) so they usually go for things based off of existing stories.
