George Lucas isn't the best director but I will miss his personal touch and hope Disney doesn't make this a generic action/FX movie. I guess this will depend on the villains and plot, and it isn't apparent what story there is with Luke now an old man himself and Darth long dead.

Another thing I wonder about is if John Williams will be involved, or whether much like Man Of Steel they try ti get new and wind up with forgettable crap musically. The music was always a huge part of these films and I don't want to see them get away from that.

I'm very excited. Especially if we get to see the "big 3" (Han, Luke, Leia) back in action.

I wanted Steven Spielberg (who's a good friend of George) to direct it, or Brad Bird, but I'm happy with JJ Abrams, I think he'll do great. Most people don't realize, George Lucas didn't direct Empire Strikes back or Return of the Jedi.

Lawrence Kasdan helped George write ESB and ROTJ, is also helping to re-write Michael Arndt's (who himself is a great writer) script for for Episode 7.

That is a brilliant piece of marketing right there!

Excited for what is to come (hopefully good). Although I am kinda shocked they're gonna start shooting in May 2014 to be released December 18, 2015. It seems too short a time for a movie with this amount of FX.

I'm exciting. Glad they finally confirmed the worst kept secret that the original cast members are returning. I'm glad for the new people, they cast mostly unknowns and not big stars. I wish they cast another female though, only 1 new female is a bit disappointing (though Hollywood Reporter says there is another major female role yet to be cast).

    • And I'm here for it.   Also...YES, PLEASE. 
    • Also, someone knocked over the head (usually in the D Mansion) and imprisoned in the secret tunnel room or whatever it was. I swear that must have happened at least a dozen times the last few years, and each time it drove me crazy! 
    • HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! And here I am rewatching and...

    • 5-9   Honestly? There's nothing going on. And yet unlike Y&R, I'm not bored. But I just think that's because of the acting going on as they play the beats in this Liam dying storyline. Well, that and the outfits.   If there's anything I'm liking it's the continued drama of Daphne going after Carter and not letting anyone get in her way. Not Brooke. Not Katie. NO ONE.    And while I love TK in those glasses, I am not here for a Brooke/Ridge/Taylee triangle.    And of course, Luna would try to use this Liam mess to get closer to Finn.   Okay week.
    • The acting during those Sarah scenes on Friday was horrific.
    • So true. Their hypocrisy is on another level. When Anita called Ted a coward because he used Bill as a fixer, I almost choked on my Ritz. And Dani calling Ted worse than Bill as a husband because Bill never pretended to be a good person? Then why stay with him for decades and continue to kiss up to him, Dani? I was glad when Bill told Anita he wouldn't be her punching bag. Not for me. I can think of 100 other actors who would have smoking hot chemistry with LB. Lindstrom does not. I see zero chemistry. None. Joey isn't sexy or scary.   -- Mona was awesome today. -- Why was Eva playing cards in the back room of the casino? -- Can they make Anita any more sanctimonious and self-righteous? -- Dani said Anita had Ted shook. LOL. Really?       No. But I see what you're trying to do. This is a SOAP OPERA. Characters HAVE to make mistakes and sin and screw up and cheat. That's the deal. I understand the concern that we have 2 leading Black men who have cheated on their wives. I do. But I also understand that this is SOAPS 101. Are we going to hear complaints every time a Black character messes up???    
    • Gone are the days where at least once every week, a character would pull a gun on someone (Ron you really turned gun violence into a joke on this show)
    • Oooooo I like these. I like we are on the same page about Little Brownie Man. And I hope to remember this at the end of June to see how much of it came to pass. I definitely feel that the Eva vs Kat story is about to reaaaally get going.    As for the B/C stories, it's funny you mentioned the Joey/Vanessa/Doug story first. Because out of all of those, it is the only one that has enough structure and build to it that it could keep going as a B story that could eventually climax. I think the only POV we don't have in it is Joey's at this point because Month 2 put in the work to give us Doug's and Vanessa's and they are now circling each other and their relationship. And we still need to know Joey's endgame.   Why we gotta pick on Jacob and Naomi? We need that goody good couple. lol. They talked about how they got together. Mind you, very briefly. But we do need to know a little bit more about both. Something I was hoping we were getting by having them in their own stories....him with the crooked cop, her with the lawsuit...but it didn't turn out as hoped. Hopefully, that won't be the case with June though.   Yeah, I want to see more of THAT Ashley.  I finally had to break down and explain to my manager why I keep laughing every time I see the bottle of Febreze at work. The product placement definitely be working.
