Lucas has done a lot to hurt Star Wars, but This could really do something terrible. It could be awesome, though.
One thing I could totally get down with, an entire Star Wars area at a Disney park. I would behave like a proper 10 year-old and get my crap down to that place immediately. I'm a whore for some things, and I've come to peace with that.
