I'd bet a few members here were pretty young when Ep I came out. They'd be in their early 20s now....

I know several people in their 20's that loved/prefer EP1-3.

Same here.

1-3 were crap because... cgi. Literally that's it. The ONLY thing the Star Wars franchise EVER had going for it were great character designs and impressive special effects. I-III couldn't even get that right. Don't complain about the bad story and giant plot holes unless you complain about the original trilogy as well, because they had the same problems.

Seeing as how these new films seem to be cgi laden they are assuredly going to be crap as well. Yes, yes I know JJ has assured us that he was going to rely on practical effects and yet.... look at that trailer.

The characters are as generic and cliché as you can get this time around.... disgruntled ex bad guy that will assuredly end up having a heart of gold, space junk scavenger and "wise old sage" that assures them that the legends are not just legends. Oh and the bad guy is a vader fanboy who obsessively collects all things sith. LOL Lucas wrote his fans into the script.

It's Star Wars and the plagues of Hollywood Lucas and Abrams are at the helm. The only way it could be more doomed is if Michael Bay were somehow involved. So expect utter crap and be pleasantly surprised if we get anything better than utter crap.

I'm not so fast to judge. While I didn't "hate" EP 1-3 they didn't come anywhere close to having the charm of the original trilogy. Plot holes included.

Bottom line, no matter how much I "didn't love" the prequels, there were a few redeeming moments in each that felt..."Star Wars". (most of the parts without Jar Jar and adolescent Anakin)

And those moments are worth being excited for this movie.

Animated effects can be ok(even CGI)...I loved the first two (original) Cartoon Network "Clone Wars" seasons. Those felt like Star Wars too.

A comment I read after watching the trailer:

"It's interesting that the next generation of people living in this universe don’t actually know what happened 30 years ago."

EDIT: Then again, I suppose you could say this is also true for kids playing on arcades today. ;)

Here is what I wrote on another forum

I'm less hyped as they leak more. This movie will print money, they didn't have to leak any of the plot or subtext or twists. Or anything! But omigosh, imagine day 2 numbers! Everything that we knew, what if it was a surprise. Ass holes if you ask me. Ruined it. I mean, I'll go, I'll eat popcorn, I might even enjoy myself. But it would have been so much better if they hadn't spoiled anything. This is boring hype. If afterwards, they hadn't leaked anything, that would have been hype.

Ass holes.

I actually don't think I am going to like this.

All things considered:
The new droid is a toy.
Black Stormtrooper, meh. Which Fet is that? Who cares now.
Women Stormtrooper? Must need the force to be a woman in combat. So she is force sensitive? What the hell, is that a thing? So she might be a jedi? or sith? Meh.

By Vader's Ghost! Is that a lightsaber with a lightsaber hilt? Blech
