Major buzz has been floating around regarding the direction of Star Wars Episode 7 after news that Disney bought Lucasfilm was released earlier this week.
Disney announced that Star Wars Episode 7 will be released in 2015 but no one really knows what the story will be about, aside from the fact that it will be a continuation from the originals and not the prequels. With the lack of information in the news or on the Internet, TeamCoCo has taken the liberty of providing a few spoofed mashups of Disney's classic fairy tales and the galactic invaders to temporarily feed the curiosity of George Lucas's fans. The leaked Star Wars Episode 7 posters include some pretty cheeky images including the never-aging never-dying immortal Peter Pan flying towards the Death Star as well as Snow White being carried away by Jawas.
