FYI, it feels far more epic and fantastic in a theater. I took a train out to Boston for the first showing yesterday, and there was definitely a larger than normal crowd for a Hunger Games showing at 10 AM on a Friday, haha! I even jokingly called out, "So everyone's here for Hunger Games, right?", and most of the audience laughed. Rest assured, I was not the only person gasping in anxiousness anytime a trailer started that wasn't TFA (naturally, it was the last one), and I was not the only person in the slightest to leave after the trailer premiered. Strangely, I was the only person to stick around and catch it two more times in two other auditoriums, so I guess I'm the only person in all of New England to have seen the first three theatrical showings of the new Star Wars trailer.

Anyway, not only is there a great thrill in seeing it with a crowd, but seeing it in a full HD presentation on a giant screen with big sound makes it truly feel like Star Wars. Modern, yes, and with Abrams' touch, yes. But the score, those sound effects, and the atmosphere as a whole, are meant for a theater. Being inside that X-Wing with the pilot, soaring across that lake with the fighters, creeping through the woods with a new Dark Sider... December 2015 can't come soon enough!!!
