The most sorry thing is you guys think I care you think i am an idiot. My real concern about the sequels is this as much as we dont like Lucas anymore. My concern is that little magic things will be gone. Yes Prequels had there issues but can you trust someone else to care about loved characters. JJ Is not below making a stinker movie or starting projects and they end poorly.

JJ Is not below making a stinker movie or starting projects and they end poorly. No one thinks you're an idiot Vader, I'm just messing with you, don't mean to hurt your feelings here. JJ isn't some incredible filmmaker, but he's yet to make a bad movie and I don't think he's going to start now. In terms of the magic, I'm pretty sure Lucas already ran that into the ground. What magic was there in the prequels? His ridiculous over-use of CGI that probably already looks terrible (1999 CGI, no way that looks good), his annoying characters, his terrible dialogue, the lack of adventure and escapism, etc. Why people don't like the prequels is because there isn't any wonder or intrigue. Lucas just sends us from one bloated set piece (or green screen, really) to another, none of which carries any emotion or depth. I always asked myself why are we here? How is this advancing the plot? The originals had iconic planets we visited: Tatooine, Hoth, Dagobah, Endor. Other than Naboo I couldn't name you one of the new planets from the prequels, and Naboo had nothing special about it either. Lucas isn't a good filmmaker, he's a guy that has good ideas and better people around him to flesh them out for him. Already from the trailers I can see how much of an improvement these films will be. Am I getting ahead of myself? Maybe, but it's hard to imagine that JJ and Co. will scrap together anything as bland, uninteresting, and disappointing as what Lucas did with the prequels. The prequels have no magic, no luster, nothing. They're a bad footnote in the Star Wars history books, nothing more. |

My Concern is them finding good enough Villain to be able to carry 3 movies and be as good as a Vader or even A Maul or Dooku. Its hard making a iconic villain and Lucas for all his bad ideas being able to make good villains is what he did good at.

Well we might have one already, we don't know yet. We don't really know anything yet about the characters, so we can't assume one way or the other at this point.

Why would they bring back ewan that makes no sense. the other actor alec genius was the true obi won and he is not bale to do it anymore so makes sense they can't bring back him again.

This is quite safe for anyone concerned about spoilers. Just about anything even remotely related to the actual story can be tied to what was shown in the trailer, so if you've seen that, you should be good. BTW, one of those aliens looks awfully familiar...  |

Spoiler alert
The entire series to this point has been a fantasy taking place inside an autistic Jar Jar's snowglobe

For Dracula who is obsessed with aspect rations I love Christopher Nolan, but good lord do I wish he had never started this trend movies needlessly shifting their aspect ratios during action sequences for the IMAX versions. |

I disagree. I saw Interstellar in 70mm and then in 70mm IMAX (real IMAX not fake IMAX) and the IMAX version was much more immersive. The more directors that want to do that the better.

I have never found the transitions distracting, and the full IMAX sequences are pretty awesome. Actually, few seem to notice it seems. I actually had to tell people who would go with me, and regular movie goers, that the aspect changes in the IMAX versions so some scenes look much more grand, filling the entirety of the screen.
Granted, an entire film in IMAX would be amazing, but I'll take what we're getting in the mean time.
