Damon Lindelof and Roberto Orci Tweet About the Revived Star Wars Franchise

Features

By GustavoLeao / 11:21, 5 November 2012 / Star Trek: Nemesis

This past week, two of the writers/producers of "Star Trek Into Darkness" tweeted their humorous thoughts concerning the recent announcement of the revival of the "Star Wars" franchsie.

 
When asked about his "take" on the "Star Wars" announcement, Roberto Orci tweeted, "Great Here comes another Trek ripoff ;)"
 
Damon Lindelof was slow to respond to the "Star Wars" news, but finally tweeted, "The reason I didn't  tweet immediately is due to the heart attack I just had.  HOLY SHIT."
 
Internet rumors started circulating that Lindelof would write the screenplay for the new "Star Wars" film, and that he has, in fact, already working on the script in secret.  While he never officially debunked the rumors, he did tweet in response, "My twitter feed:  38%:  'You should write the new Star Wars!'  47%:  'Don't fucking touch the new Star Wars!"  15%:  Undecided." 
 
Orci's and Lindelof's twitter pages can be found here and here.

I stopped following Orci since he tweets too much about conspiracy BS. And then he calls people that do not care much about conspiracies a bunch of mindless lemmings.

Anyway: back to topic: There is a rumor that Lindelof might be writing the new Star Wars movie. (Well, Orci stated on AICN that Lindelof is "too busy" for Star Wars.)
