    Do you think they'll save this for a specific event (if so where) or do you think they'll just let it out as they have been with the other information so far?

    If not by Celebration VII, then we may get a teaser with Episode VII

    Probably at a comic convention in the coming months, in order to take away the attention from Ep. 7's filming/post-production and to keep the veil of mystery around that project for a while longer. We shall see.

    Not soon enough!! ;)

    Though I do think it will be similar to the casting announcement for Harrison, Mark and Carrie. It'll be nice to have the official confirmation, but we were already 99% sure it was happening. In this case, it'll be nice to have the official word, but it will almost anti-climatic when they confirm it's Boba.

    Just looking at this during lunch today a lot of people now are saying not Boba first? Would be a disappointment to me if he isn't first.

    Comic-Con next month seems like a reasonable option, unless they are planning on holding out a little longer.

    In all honesty, outside the fandom, most people will be too focused on "Oh, they're making episode VII" and won't be thinking ahead to the next one. If anything, it would probably be mentioned at SanDiego Comic Con next year with a heavier focus on Episode VII. This year, the focus will most likely be Rebels as its starting this fall.

    The last I heard Lucasfilm/Star Wars will not have any scheduled panel or event at SDCC this year.

    Yeah. I've heard the same. Next year however might be different since they have a much bigger project to promote. 2015 is gonna be a huge year.

    Could be, but remember next summer is a D23 year. Generally Disney likes to keep it's big news reserved for that. For example Marvel Studios didn't go to SDCC three years ago. It all depends on if Disney wants to embrace SDCC again or encourage people to go to their con.

    Celebration would be a good time to unveil them too.

    Anakin: I say patience.

    Obi Wan: Patience?

    Anakin: Yes. A Disney rep will be along in a few moments, and then he'll announce the spin off movie.

    I mean, what do you mean by "announce"? When they reveal the title or what it's about? Cause technically, we don't even have that for Episode VII yet.

    I consider both spin-off films to already have been 'announced'. Now I'm waiting for them to reveal more about them.

    Yeah I should have been more clean. I guess if they just told us who the movie was about I would be happy. I'm really hoping if they do an animated spin off it's not the first one as some are saying.

    Since Disney has made it clear that they are focused on Rebels and VII, which is yet to be titled, I'd be satisfied with even a timestamp for the first (or first two) of the spinoffs. Anything to help us get started on the first of the spinoff speculation, beyond the Fett, Solo, Yoda rumors. I feel if this happened and we all had that second SW film to look forward to, the 497 days til VII wouldn't seem sooooo long.

    I would be cool with just about any spin off. But given my choice, I would prefer it to be live-action – I truly hope they don't just make all of them animated…

    I would bet they want to keep the focus on TFA at least until it's released. They might be working on the spin off before that, but we wouldn't find out any information till maybe they make a very brief announcement, like in the comic con or something. But nothing more than that. I could see them handling it that way…

    So....One would think that they might be a few drafts into script by now and/or have started pre-production since they'll have to film the first spin off this next year.
