So quit possibly the biggest news in geek history was announced today, and even for non-geeks, unless you live on the planet that is furthest from the bright center to the universe, you most likely heard about the deal in which George Lucas sold the rights to Star Wars (and all of the Lucasfilm empire) to Disney for an amount of money that can be seen from a galaxy far, far away: 4 billion dollars! Bottom line, Star Wars is now in the hands of Disney, and this is a very good thing, although judging by social media updates, not everyone is happy about this deal.
