2. How much lens flare is too much?

I haven't seen it; may not see it. After Abrams utterly destroyed the Star Trek universe, and George Lucas destroyed the Star Wars universe, I am not anxious to see what JJ has in store to destroy that which has already been destroyed.

But a few of my friends have talked about seeing it. If they go, I will likely also. Otherwise, I won't.

Myself, I would have Luke going to the dark side. He never completed his training with Yoda. It seems like an easy plot twist.

I wonder what fuzzy aliens we'll see in this one, ripe for product exploitation. Too bad they did not release it in mid November, well before Christmas so that they could get the merchandise into Toys R Us in time for the after Thanksgiving rush.

Star Wars! Arrrrgh! (No! That was no Wookie Monster; that was me.)
