jar jar abrams is 100% guaranteed to turn VII into something that destroys sw canon more than the prequels ever had...

If in the first scene we discovered that the PT was basically a bad dream that Luke had, it would still be canon in that it would be depicted as being a dream that "actually" happened to Luke.   I think JJ will do just fine.  :D

Come to think of it, thank you for commenting, Leper Messiah TR, you've helped me work out how I will finally be able to work the other trilogy into my head canon;  TCW really happened, and the PT was a bad dream Luke had about his dad sometime between ESB and ROTJ.  

This is the one time the "it was all a dream horrifying nightmare" gimmick actually works. I still prefer to pretend the PT doesn't exist, though. It's a more elegant solution.

Also, Jar Jar Abrams is totally how I'm going to refer to him until the end of my days if he fails to deliver ;)
