Did we need a howard cosell speaking annoucer in the pod race? Did we need a grease line cook with a plumber butt when Obi Wan is trying to find out that dart? Did we need a race of bumbling idiots that seem to insult the Jamaican culture?

The cool thing about Star Wars was that it looked ALIEN and I loved, in the first series, how their advanced technology looked worn out to a degree, as if being in the Empire meant that life outside it was hard.

The last thing I want is the new Star Wars to be a star vehicle. Keep some veteran character actors for small roles or villains, but find up and comers for the big stuff. It should feel like a fresh experience

Obviously everyone loves SW and would it be that bad to let them share in the universe. I agree it'd be sorta distracting to see the Hurley and Greg Grunberg pop up, but I can totally see Simon Pegg playing an Imperial Officer (granted, I guess they won't exist anymore).

Keep the fanboy faith,and don't mess with canon. JJ totally messed up Star Trek (stupid prick). Of course, even Lucas himself has been messing with canon, with his stupid reworks and enhancements of the originals. Something along the lines of the original or ESB will be awesome.

…and for the love of God, NO JAR JAR OR EWOKS!!!

That just makes it corny and hokey and puts it in the schmaltz category. Just. The. Movie. PLEASE.

Now I want to know how can Anyone Top Vader? Will our new Baddie wear a Cape? A Mask?, I am 47yrs old & So TOTALLY want to be a 'Smuggler in Space' in my next Life!(or this one!?) Also, When can the DieHard Fans set up a Tent to start waiting for Opening Day?? LOL— May The Force Be With Us, Always!

No 3-D for anything ever again

Cumberbatch is a great comic actor so I'd hope JJ continues his love affair with Cumberbatch in Star Wars VII.

I'm glad JJ isnt a big fan of 3D. Hopefully it will be used with care (which he's doing with Star Trek).
