LucasArts/LucasFilm LTD Sold to Disney: My Take.

Link.

Why Disney? Would this hurt Fox, since they've distributed the Star Wars franchise of films? Fox, or maybe either Lionsgate, Millenium/Nu Image, Sony, Liberty Media (Anchor Bay and Overture) or CBS (would be great since CBS/Paramount is home of the Star Trek franchise) would be better suited to handle the franchise, even the cash-strapped MGM would, but I don't see Star Wars in the Disney family, and lord knows if George would rather sell it to Warner or Summit.

Wonder what happens with this deal, and hopefully the product isn't softened. After all, Star Wars has the largest fanbase of all sci-fi fanbases, with Star Trek a distant second (just my opinion, but neither fanbase shouldn't bash each other).

NBA Season 2012-13 Already Underway.

While most other men's leagues around the world already began their 2012-13 season (Australia's NBL and the Philippines' PBA among others), it was the NBA's turn. A new look Mavs squad (minus Dirk and his knee surgery) won on the road, spoiling Steve Nash's Lakers debut. Remember it's just the first night, and there are about six months left of the season to go.

Also it's weird that the crowd was quieter at Staples Center compared to four months ago when the Kings won Stanley Cup final in game 6 against the Devils. Very weird.

FATALITY.

A Clean Sweep for the Giants.

Congrats to the Giants on their sweep for their second title in three years under Bruce Bochy. "Panda Express" Pablo Sandoval is the series MVP with at least .500 batting average, with three home runs in game 2.

A huge upgrade from "This is the Night." That's all.

On Wednesday night, when taking your youngsters trick or treating, learn about proper safety and use it to be as safe and sound.
