I think JJ Abrams just watched the original 1977 Star Wars movie and said "Lets remake that and call it a day."

I liked the new one, but to me the most interesting thing happened within the first 10 minutes. The only part of the movie that really left an impression on me was when Fin saw his friend die and decided he couldn't be a storm trooper anymore. To me, there's your movie. What was Fin's life as an anonymous numbered soldier and how did he come to break away from it? What made his experience different that he rebelled?

But of course that movie might have less explosions and no need for a droid.

I always loved that show...Dr. Kirk was very witty.

Saw it today. It may be the best of the franchise. Definitely in "Empire" territory. The story is a bit slow to start, but the last half of the movie is brilliant. Lots of cameos and the CGI is amazing.

I agree. It was the best Star Wars movie since Empire. I enjoyed in much more than Episode 7, let's remake Episode 4.
