And as I wrote above, JJ can't possibly damage the franchise any more than George Lucas has already done. Only the first two films, (episodes 4 and 5) are any good. The first because it cut new ground in the space opera genre, the second because it was a tight direction and had some good story telling and plot twists. The rest of them, Lucas jumped the shark. Star Wars product placements abound. The movies took a back seat to marketing. That is why people hate Lucas so much. He killed his own golden goose.
That is the only reason why I would want to see this one. Although all the hype makes me want to throw up, I may still see it, just to see if it can be resurrected to something reasonably good. I am not to optimistic. But it can't possibly be worse than episode 1 of the second trilogy. One hopes.
My best to you.
