First Star Wars thing from Disney sees the light of day on TV.

Casting rumors.
I don't think filling this thing with "big names" is a wise move. The brand is going to carry the movie all by itself. Why invest in expensive actors who won't bring any audience?

Eh, they might get them cheap if the actors are the ones seeking out the roles because they really want to do it. As long as they get the right people for the roles, and not just shoving in anyone with a big name regardless of fit.
So far I will trust Abrams on casting, given how well he cast the Star Trek reboot.

A little while ago I was told that two names have been thrown around a lot, and that another star went in last week.
The two stars are none other than…
RYAN GOSLING and ZAC EFRON
Star Wars: Episode VII: Jedi Academy Musical.

There are some movies that I like Gos in, too.

I spent some time in Las Cruces.
It's certainly hot enough to be Tatooine.

I'm glad they didn't go this route. Obi-Wan would have been a far less important character.

Apparently, Disney had NOT purchased the rights to Indiana Jones.
But they have now.

Oh, boy. That franchise they're probably going to fuck up if they try to make more. Indiana Jones is all about the tone of the films, and a gritty reboot would completely destroy that tone.
I think it would be harder to make a good new Indy film than almost any other franchise I can think of.

I'm quite confident they'll fuck up Star Wars in their own non-Lucasian way.

Original draft of SW 7 had the kids of Luke and Han as the heroes.
According to the story, JJ didn't like that and wanted to give Luke, Han, and Leia the spotlight one last time, and then the next movies will push the kids.
If that's all true, I agree with JJ. When you think of Star Wars, you don't think of Anakin. Give the characters that have carried Star Wars since 1978 their last moment in the sun.

Um. I'm not sure I really want to see Star Wars: Episode VII - Escape from the Nursing Home.
It's a nice idea but a decade or two too late with the original actors. Are they going to find replacements, CGI them all to hell, or what? Doing a real action-adventure-sci-fi old-school Star Wars movie with the original cast would just be sad.

Hell, no. They can have some mentor cameo/supporting roles. Maybe Hamill could still pull off a greyish Jedi. Leave the rest alone.
