I'm merely pondering what sort of new dimension this community will have in a year. It's going to happen, we just don't know in what way. It's absolutely incredible that we're going to have new Star Wars in five months. But I also find it incredible that at some point later, VII is going to be a part of the Star Wars catalogue and history. It's real and it will be treated as such. For better or worse. For work of art or raw material.
Fair enough - it may well be a different story after December. It just seems a strange culture we're in where the discussion doesn't revolve around the brand new film coming our way, but rather what we can do to 'fix' it once it's in our hands.
New Star Wars should be special enough on its own, as that lovely comic-con reel demonstrates (for me, anyway).
