I was about to make a counterpoint - then I remembered we're arguing about the quality of a movie that hasn't come out yet. Hmm.

It's funny because people are claiming that Abrams is just a rip-off artist who won't add anything new to the franchise and that is film will just be a shallow rehash of the OT. At the same time, people are claiming that Abrams has a style that is inconsistent with the OT and that he will not respect the source and that the film won't fit into the franchise. So some complain there won't be anything new while some complain there won't be anything old. The truth is that none of us will know until December so there's no use complaining about it now.
