Jeez Poita, is there anything you don't know?

I don't know what is happeing in Ep7. I have avoided all trailers etc. to keep it as fresh as possible. New trailer is up now, I am busily not watching it...

I just saw it. By the trailer alone I'd label it recycled and not fresh. From appearances all the stuff that happened in the OT, instead of being built upon and expanded, has been reduced to legend as some contrivance for a rebirth with some goofy vendetta by a mask wearing Vader Jr character. Throw in a pursuit by a lanky stormtrooper with a scratchy throat box for added story momentum. Ground and air battles and cameos mixed between to keep the audience awake.

Supposedly in their galaxy the force is all but forgotten. Two Death Stars exploded and the Jedi and rebels who brought evil down to it's knees apparently didn't make the evening star news. Basically they reset to stage zero so master Luke can whoosh in toward the journey's end to mentor the new generation of tingling clairvoyant telekinetic super youth against the upstart evil regimes that have moved in, and to reunite with the rest of the old cast who haven't kept in touch.
