Yeah I think I know what you mean siliconmaster.....a lot of people hate anything new.......and that's OK! (Apology inserted, for the OT purists) I for one just really enjoy whatever story George wants to share with regards to the time period between Ep1-6. If it was his story, I would enjoy the story before and beyond this time period, but he continually says that is not his story.
With all of Adywan's new model talk, etc., things will surely look great, but man it saddens me a bit, this means millions more months until this movie is done.......oh well, better done right, than a hurry job I guess....
