Be mindful of the formal announcement of Star Wars: Episode VII, my young Padawan.
You're reading that right. Maybe it's too much for your Force-sensitive heart, but Walt Disney, the living planet, has devoured another realm: Lucasfilm. Combined with the purchase of Marvel Entertainment for US$ 4 billion in 2009 and of Pixar Animation Studios for US$ 7.4 billion in 2006, Disney, the Hunger that Does Not Cease, has bought the company of George Lucas for US$ 4.5 billion dollars. Disney has confirmed the info in their official website yesterday (Tuesday, October 30th, 2012).
The release also informs that Star Wars: Episode VII will be released in world-wide theaters by 2015. This will be the first Star Wars movie developed by Walt Disney, and will be followed by episodes VIII and IX, coming every two or three years thereafter. According to Lucas, who will still act as the consultant of the new trilogy, "it's now time for me to pass Star Wars on to a new generation of filmmakers".
Question is, is that a good thing?
Good is a point of view, Anakin.

What? JardimStudios is evolving!
Hi, there! Hey, come back here! I'm not a stranger! Here...
Make no mistake: yours truly remains your old friend, Brazilian Nintendo-holic Eduardo Jardim — better known by my 7-year-old DeviantArt username, "JardimStudios". I've been supporting this social community for a very long time now, and some of you even turned into the best friends I had in life. As you may know, I eventually go into a colossal hiatus here on DeviantArt, and I've been thinking, why do I do that? Why would I leave so much?
Then I came to a realization. I guess the name I was carrying all along was getting too old. Since the "JardimStudios" label had been par
Changing my Username: Transfer of Points, please!
Bom dia!
I'm a penguin. No, really, I am. An emperor penguin, to be exact.
You see, I spend my life facing storms and blizzards, but I have set goals which I need to achieve. I know my DeviantArt username has nothing to do with it, but I'm actually sick and tired of all the "one-man studios" concept and, as alleged in an old poll of mine, I'd like to change it to JardimWorld, JardimUniverse or something symbolic, such as MarioArtist or MushroomRetainer. The fact is, I'm a deviant for 7 years. This whole JardimStudios thing makes me utterly unmotivated at this point; just the fact of writing it at login now prevents my creative flow. The pro

A Pill a Day and... My Idea Got Away!
Bom dia!
I believe that the world we live in is moved by a series of brainstorms. Explosions of particular ideas are meant to happen a bazillion times every single day — it's not a big surprise that some of those ideas come up quite similar to each other, sometimes in such an identical way it's almost unbelievable. As some of my oldest devWATCHERs may know, in mid-2009 I've created something that I considered to be one of the coolest and most unique concepts for a fandom-inspired webcomic: the Dr. Luigi series.
Nothing more than a couple of days ago, Nintendo has officially announced one of the coolest and most unique concepts for one

I can't see Disney screwing up Star Wars any worst than Lucas screwed it up. Maybe they'll actually release a version of the Star Wars trilogy without annoying edits made to it? Or maybe there won't be any annoying Jar Jars in episode VII (though I have no idea how they're going to pull off an episode VII considering the empire's been destroyed and all, I guess there's expanded universe stuff to go on). And hey, Marvel's still awesome even after Disney bought it, look at the Avengers movie, that didn't suck. And we can now FINALLY be able to see the old X-Men and other Marvel cartoons on the Disney channel.
