Tatooine only seems like the middle of nowhere to young Luke because he hasn't been anywhere else. There are probably Coruscant street urchins who dream of the sands of the Dune Sea and Tuskens riding Banthas beneath it's many moons and twin stars.

I tell ya Luke, the Rebellion is a long way from here. This planet? Big hunk of nothing...

I doubt if the Empire'd even fight to save the system.
I'm sure kids in Baghdad felt that way in 1977 despite Scherazade and despite all those George Bushes. Besides that scene didn't make the film :-P

I speculate that Max Von Sydow is playing an elderly, partially robotic Ric Olié.

After a long, rainy day here this comment really made me laugh :)
Max von Sydow, the great Ming the Merciless, reduced to Mr. Exposition.

It appears that Aayla Secura has not been resurrected, so I have no interest in this film.

I saw that and was going to post it here. You beat me to it :)
That is frankly the best defense for the contraversial lightsaber I've seen. It makes far more sense now that the blades would originate from one focal point inside the hilt, not from 3 separate emitters. So as he says, even if a blade does cut through a side emitter, the blade itself will still be underneath to deflect it. That's the theory I'm willing to buy ;)

And the metal part that covers part of the side-blades could prevent the weilder's own hands from slipping and getting sliced.

Dissapointed the X-wings and Falcon are cgi but fully expected them to be.
Just like the new Starship Enterprise ILM designed.
All OT ships since 1994 have been digital anway or am i wrong?
With the exception of the documentary special effects anything can happen, they did shoot models for that.

I really don't get why people put such a priority on non-CGI stuff...
If the storyline and characters are well-written and assuming JJ will not completely screw that up, I couldn't care less if the ships are done with CGI.

It's called "personal preference". Does that finally answer your often asked question?

Well obviously. My question was more in a sense "why would someone even have such a preference". :)
I mean hypothetically, OT with CGI would still be great while PT with real SFX would still be the same shit. That is my main point.

Part of the problem with AOTC is that it has two desert planets (one orange and one red) in the same movie. It would have made for a better narrative if both of those worlds were Tatooine (the droid armies explaining how the Jawas get to sell so many salvaged droids and why the locals don't like drinking with them). in terms of numbers you get two worlds but in terms of the richness of the environments in which the story is told we get short changed.
For this to work, Obi-Wan (and Qui-Gon if he keeps the role that he has in TPM) would have to discover Anakin after being drawn to Tatooine by the war. The army being constructed on the same planet that Anakin was discovered on 9 years earlier is too much of a coincidence.
