Excellent point ... wish i had mod points :(

This first Disney Star Wars film was never about story. As you say ... What the first SW film after the George Lucas travesty known as episodes I - !!I needed to be was a spectacle that clearly established, for the fans, that Disney could recapture the look and feel, mood and tone, however you want to describe it, of the original trilogy. They have unequivocally done that!

Let's face it ... nobody would pick Abrams to tell a story. Abrams is a spectacle guy. Not a story guy!

I anticipate few story elements will be "borrowed" from the original trilogy for any of the episodes to come. Don't expect redemption of the villain, for example.. Do expect that the sets will be reused ... they are an integral and essential part of the mood and tone of the franchise ...

The guy tagged to write and direct episode VIII( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt25... [imdb.com] ), Rian Johnson (Looper), is NOT a spectacle guy he is definitely a "story" guy and while he's no Irwin Kershner, I have considerable hope that episode VIII will be as much better than VII as V was better than IV.

I know that is dangerous, shattered hope kills ....

you don't really think that Disney will be limiting themselves to just the 9 episodes originally conceived do you ? I anticipate at least a 1/2 dozen if they are successful ....

In 2027 ... The 50th anniversary episode Star Wars Episode XIV - The Force Diminishes ...

I wish I had mod points .... I think people deserve to have their comments modded up for explaining the obvious to the stupid. well done.

Disney HAD to make a film that reminded everyone of why they loved Star Wars. After the debacle that was the prequels, they needed to come back to basics.Disney HAD to make a film that reminded everyone of why they loved Star Wars.

I, as I suspect many others, have also come to this same conclusion.

All the criticisms about overuse of story elements and connections to/ inclusion of, past characters/sets is certainly valid; one or the other would have probably been sufficient to tie the generations together.

You just defined "democracy"

"unless you are very bad, you can carry out a successful doctor career " Frank Burns eats worms.

Would assume that everyone has enough money to fund two bank accounts to the the level necessary to keep them solvent in the event of the inaccessibility of one of them ... must be nice to have that kind of money available.

"Well, they are trying to prevent people who want us dead from carrying out those threats" AT ANY COST. And that is the problem... the price they are eager to pay is a cost none of us can afford.

I wish i had a million mod points for you ... "Who really looks at history and thinks this sort of power is safe to leave in the hands of those in power?" the answer, of course, is no one..
