Hopefully, Disney won't be doing the films themselfs. When a company buys out another, that means the CEO of the 1st company owns the 2nd company. So, LucasFilms will still be creating the films, but Disney will oversee them.
Yeah, George Lucas will be a "creative consultant" or something now.
I'm guessing that means something like keeping up with canon and continuity for them, which he is actually really good at with the books.

i thought he'd retired anyway

And there never would be if Disney didn't buy Lucasarts.
George Lucas said himself that if half the world was whining at you to make another movie, would you do it? I don't think he intended to make another show or movie. Maybe a couple games, those come out pretty frequently.

Dude
He's GREAT at building worlds and being creative
Not-so great at directing and dialogue
Besides it's not like anyone ever actually said "The Star Wars series can have no more editions it is done it is over"
there have been fairly constant flows of books and that tv show thing
The existence of these movies won't ruin the first three

starwars doesnt need any more movies, at least not with the characters from the original trilogy
i think itd be better if they used completely new characters in the same universe

1. No movie needs a sequel unless it finishes with loose ends.
2. You don't know what they're going to be about.

some movies do not call for sequels
many sequels are made just to squeeze more money out of a movie or series and not because its a good idea
and as a matter of fact
According to Kathleen Kennedy, Lucasfilm co-chair and now brand manager of the “Star Wars” franchise, meetings are already underway with possible writers for the forthcoming films, which will reportedly be based on the characters that were central to the second trilogy: Luke, Leia and Han Solo.

It can still be really really good. And it very well might be, considering it's Disney.

As I think someone said earlier, these movies won't ruin the old ones.

Even if I don't think this is an absolutely terrible idea, I do think a movie set in like, the time of The Old Republic may be better.
