I'd argue that Disney movies are fore everybody rather than just for kids, not to mention movies like Prince of Persia, Pirates of the Carribean, and John Carter. Disney makes many adult movies and even Pixar movies are designed for both adults and kids to like because adults watch movies with there kids.

LucasArts hasn't made anything in a long time worth mentioning so this one is on them and no need to blame Disney for LucasArts mistakes.

How are these movies not geared towards kids with their whimsical plots and characters, also side note John Carter Flopped hard don't count on seeing another one. Pixar is exclusively a children's movie studio I don't why you would bring that up. I'm not saying adults can't enjoy their films but they are definitely not made for them.

Id hardly say that was built for little kids

I´d say John Carter but I don´t know hoe it was rated

I am now curious how they handle the IP of Star Wars over next decade.

No I hate Disney because if they can't sell to kids they don't make it, and now they own one of the most popular Franchises on earth and are going to use it exclusivity to sell cheap crap to children.

Lucas was already using Star Wars to sell cheap crap to children. Clone Wars? Star Wars Kinect?

I'll tell you what Disney is doing, they're bringing in quality control, a phrase George Lucas has not heard in a long time.

+1.

Disney's one of the largest entertainment conglomerates on the planet for a reason.

It's all about the game.

Why would they do this to us? Is Disney trying to ruin Star Wars? I hope they don't screw up the movie or anything else Star Wars related otherwise they may lose a lot of fans.

Star Wars won't go without any games. They will probably licsense the IP out to EA or Ubisoft.

OT: Somebody please tell me this is an April Fool's joke.

Are you serious? Ruining Star Wars? Star Wars is a dead raped corpse lying in dust and bleeding out its a***** and was zombified multiple times

The time it was under Lucas Arts it was sold like the cheapest whore. Star Wars was milked like nothing else on this playnet. And now Disney is really trying to make a good Star Wars movie and maybe even a TV Show. They are trying to make this franchise serious again. And Disney did a few big misstakes in the gaming industry and thats probably why they are backing off of it. Cut them some slag.
