Within the last month, I got done telling my 8-year-old that there weren't going to be any more Star Wars movies. Wow!

All the movies made a total of $1.66B, so they're paying 243% of real value. Without Lucas at the helm in the future, who knows ...

Box office. They made many times that from video/DVD/Blu since then. Many times more than THAT in merchandising. Disney owns it all now

Did Lucas not teach you anything, young Jedi. There is a lot of money is not the box, but the real money is in the merchandise.

They've made over 4.5 billion worldwide according to mojo.

All valid arguments, but don't forget the price needs to account for current assets, and future revenues.
