Never Too Much

So Star Wars 7 rakes in more than $2 billion and naturally enough, Disney wants to get more SW product into the marketplace. The Mouse recently announced:

... “With ‘The Freemaker Adventures’ we are thrilled to bring all new stories to life that could only be realized in the ‘Lego Star Wars’ universe,” said Carrie Beck, vice president, animation development at Lucasfilm. “We are embarking on an unprecedented collaboration that will allow us to extend the narrative experience of the ‘Star Wars’ saga with the same playful spirit that’s always made ‘Lego Star Wars’ so much fun to watch." ...

And two days back dropped this:



A potent combo, Lego and Star Wars, don't you think? It beefs up the franchise (and accompanying toys, games, action figures, etc., etc.) and puts Star Wars content on new and different platforms.

So what we've got here is a glorious Disney "Win-Win". But at some point, out there in the dim future, do our friends at 500 S. Buena Vista Street, Burbank California, pump the well dry?

Just asking.
