I read about this a little earlier as well. I think he sounds like a pretty decent choice, all in all. However, the bar is not very high.
I mean, he's had two movies come out so far...one was an Oscar nomination, the other was an Oscar win. He's writing Oblivion (Sci Fi, Tom Cruise movie) and a Hunger Games movie. I mean, so far the guy is 2 for 2 for Oscar nods.
Compare that to...modern George Lucas and his writing skills.
The guy just needs to show a video of a historical record of Jar Jar getting nailed by a firing squad of Imperial Stormtroopers and he will gain the love of all fans everywhere. Just churning something out that makes sense will turn him into a small god amongst the fans. I think he's the first writer working on a franchise of this size that has a potential bullseye that would be meters across while letting him stand inches away. He's practically overkill at this point and I'm completely okay with that.
Go Disney's Star Wars!
