Fantastic pick. All we need now is an even better director.

Would love it if Damon Lindelof had some part in this.

Haha, can't tell if that's sarcasm or not. If there is a director most people want far far away from Star Wars it'd be him. Personally, I loved LOST and I really like what he says here about Star Wars: http://http://www.rollingstone.com/m...eator-20121106 . I feel like he knows better than to fuck this up, but I heard about people petitioning to get him to NOT be involved so I don't think it would happen..

Haha no sarcasm. Loved Lost as well and definitely think he could bring a cool perspective to the new star wars.

I haven't been keeping up with news on this the last week or so, anything happen that I should know about?

What pick? The article is broken xD

[Ismael182]

Michael Arndt, screenwriter for Toy Story 3 and Little Miss Sunshine. He's the only for sure thing right now.

Really? That is interesting, very interesting.

I've been watching the Star Wars marathon on Spike this weekend, it got me a little more excited for some new movies. I just have no idea what story they would tell.

I wonder if the EU will continue? I actually think they should go their own route and not be tied down to what the EU says.

I'm pretty stoked the Billy Dee is up for it and that insiders have stated that Lando will be in 7.
Harrison Ford is also "upbeat" about joining which is the best news ever.

This movie is going to make so much money with Ford, Hamill, Fisher and Williams back.

Not to mention that Ewen said he'll come back as Obi-wan "if needed", which I wouldn't mind at all.

[majinsharingan]

Shit yeah! Billy Dee!

That's good. Not that I know a ton about the EU, but they'd be dumb to limit themselves to what's there with the resources they have.
