Still, it's worth a look:

You all are so pessimistic. This deliberate creative decision makes *complete sense*. In TPM you had the Pod from 2001, and now in Star Wars we get Hal itself. Completes the Circle of References.... Ties the trilogies together...

*complete sense* is a euphamism for *utter bollocks* which is a euphamism for *I Only Care About Amanaman*

Oh and I hope there's a continuity shot of Princess Leia putting up and down her hood.
