Well Simon Pegg - obviously v.close to JJ Abrams due to Star Trek role - tweeted an hour ago: "Congratulations JJ. No pressure. 🙂"

And Lucasfilm insiders are discussing it as if it's a done deal, too

I'd bet a pound (a whole pound mind you) that he doesn't.

make it three cream eggs and ill take that bet 😛

YUK!!

!?! Seriously? I see we are destined to disagree about everything...

Yup, I like Cadbury's chocolate usually but the egg filling is too much for my palatte.

I just had a big box of creme eggs as a Xmas present from Costco! Yum yum.

That's not confirmation at all, the Guardian article is just referencing another gossip website! It'll be confirmed when Abrams and/or Lucasfilm/Disney say it's happening.

Now confirmed: http://starwars.com/news/star-wars-is-being-kick-started-with-dynamite-jj-abrams-to-direct-star-wars-episode-vii.html

Does that mean I have just lost 3 creme eggs to Paul?

You'll be left with only 45! :doh:
 
I know not everyone will be happy with this news but I, for one, am. Being a fan of Fringe and the work he's done on Star Trek gives me hope that THE franchise is in good hands.......bring on the lens flare! :rofl:

EDIT: can I have a creme egg please 🙂
 
Inspired by the news, I rewatched his Star Trek reboot last night - i'd forgotten what a great job he did with that. Think my subwoofer's still recovering 🙂
 
I'm sorry, but anyone who claims to love creme eggs, yet has eaten 2 out of a possible 50 in a month isn't deserving..... If they were mine, they'd have been done by new years. 🙂
