Originally I was hesitant to embrace Abrams as a director for new Star Wars, but my surprising enjoyment of his first Trek installment gave me hope. After seeing Star Trek Into Darkness last Wednesday I'm extremely worried/anxious about Star Wars VII. At this point I don't feel like it can or will be good.

Of course I'll have tickets the second they're made available and will take off work to see the first showing - because I'm a sucker for Star Wars and Disney knows no matter what they do they'll rake in my money.

Kinda why alot of blockbusters suck. The studios know we'll all go and see them anyway.  Even if early reviews said the new trilogy made the holiday special look like ESB we'd all still queue for tickets.

If every SW fan in the world signed a solem promise and posted it to Disney to not go see episodes VIII and IX, or ever again buy another piece of SW merch if episode VII sucked. Then you'd be guarenteed that episode VII would be a masterpiece lol
