Actually Disney making the next Star Wars holds a lot more appeal to me than if Lucas was involved. The prequels were dire, and the best movie by far (Empire) was one Lucas had very little to do with! Disney make good movies - eg. Avengers, Pirates of the Carribean, Wreck-It Ralph, Alice in Wonderland, Oz, etc. Apply the big budget, fantasy visuals they are famous for to Star Wars, combined with the solid script-writing and action setpieces J.J. Abrahms and his cohorts are known for and this movie will be amazing.

Also the movie is still in casting stages and preproduction at the minute I believe. Carrie Fisher has been cast though.
