This means a lot of talk about what Abrams will do with Episode 7 as well as what kind of records the film might set when it makes it to the big screen. Let’s take a look at what some others are saying about it.
Den of Geek says:
We seem to be in a bit of a limbo at the moment with regards Star Wars: Episode VII, with the thinking being that Lucasfilm will wait until JJ Abrams is fully finished on his new film, Star Trek Into Darkness, before making a full and formal announcement about the new movie.
And The Motley Fool says:
Only two films in history have ever grossed more than $2 billion at the worldwide box office, with director James Cameron responsible for both: Avatar and Titanic.
He may have company come 2015, when J.J. Abrams unleashes the next episode in the Star Wars saga to a hungry audience. To be fair, it’s easy to speculate this early in the game. Yet all signs suggest that Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS ) will put muscle and talent behind the franchise, which it spent $4 billion to acquire.
There is a lot invested in these movies. There is a lot riding on the shoulders of Abrams, Disney and everyone else involved. Will the new film break records or break dreams?
So what can we expect from Star Wars: Episode 7? What are you most looking forward to?
