I hope the rumors are totally false because i want a fun movie that is pure escapism and i can leave reality behind for 2 hours.

I don't want something that is overly political nor do i want moral relativism.  Two things i despised about the prequels.

The so called rumors sound like 1980's American politics  with the politics of ten years ago and the politics of now.

The good guys not really being the good guys sounds like moral relativism, i suppose the empire never really was nazi like either and the rebels invented Palpatine's atrocities.

The way Han dies sounds like bad Eu like when Jacen Solo Murdered Mara Jade. Luke being a recluse sounds like bad EU like before the storm where luke becomes a hermit and builds a castle to hide from the world like a coward.

I am not a JJ Abrams hater, i am sure it will be visually interesting and entertaining despite if the plot is good or bad, or not my cup of tea as the expression goes.

The plot was wonky but i liked Super 8.  Halfway enjoyed  Trek 2009 even through its not star trek and enjoyed some of the dumber parts of into darkness for their sheer entertainment but again the plot was really bad.
