The Lucasfilm Pavilion at this years San Diego Comic Con saw a message from Dave Filoni that made it very clear that Lucasfilm have no intention of stepping away from animation anytime soon, but rather seem set to bring us decades more of animated adventures, a medium George Lucas was passionate about, as of course is Filoni.
“I thought my job at Lucasfilm Animation would last about two years – it has now been 20. This is truly possible because of the incredible dedication and hard work of the many talented people who have worked at Lucasfilm Animation. Fans have embraced our work in a way that no one could have predicted – well, maybe one person did. George Lucas always believed in animation and believed in our team. He said, ‘Dare to be great,’ and that’s what we’ve done for the last 20 years. I hope we do it for 20 more.”
