Ugh. They really had to settle on bloated Henrietta Sidious from ROTS as their "Emperor" picture?

 But I like that they've only thrown that one bone to the prequel fans ;-)

Yeah, I think they needed to include something from the prequels but it just goes to show how much the PT effed up that they couldn't include a good looking pic of the Emperor from ROTS (I will never understand how they messed him up so badly).

Looking again I think the Vader they used is from ROTS too but I don't mind that nearly as much.

I'm surprised and really happy they didn't use PT Yoda, which I had expected.

That is very clearly tiny headed ROTS Vader. It's a shame Phasma didn't get a full stamp to herself. I really dig that design.

Only if you Photoshop Vader's freaky bushy eyebrows off.

Did you just find that sentence in a fortune cookie?

 Such a shame that it won't live up to the prequels.

 I'll be so pissed if nobody steps in poop in the new film.

The film being "focus grouped garbage" is a major spoiler, you can't post that here.

I have a trusted source which assures me that TFA will up the ante by featuring full-blown coprophilia.

Don't worry. This is Disney we're talking about. They'd never allow such dark and un-family-friendly material to escape from their vaults into the realm of the living.

Why are we not complaining about this?

http://www.theverge.com/2015/9/11/9309335/see-the-star-wars-scenes-shared-between-the-two-trilogies

Have we lost our vitriol? A video supposedly showing the "like poetry, it rhymes" that could also just prove that "Lazy Lucas, was Lazy" is making the rounds, "proving" that the PT was "reverent" to the OT because the director only has so many ways he can shoot a medium/closeup scene.

Why would we complain? I thought the music in the video was quite relaxing, and it did a good job of juxtaposing similar shots from the different trilogies. Is it usually lazy filmmaking? Yes. Could it ALSO be poetic? Absolutely.

As much as I like picking apart the problems of the prequels, it is not a vitriolic exercise for me, and hatred isn't going to bring anyone around to my side. Enthusiasm for what I DO enjoy just might.

 Spoken too sensibly for many on this board, I fear. But I approve of the principle.

I'd far, far rather have had good prequels than the ones we have now, but I sure as hell don't want some future film mogul following GL's example with the OOT by trying to stamp them out of existence.

Saw a TFA coloring book in the drugstore today, almost gave into the temptation to peek inside. ;)

No, it wasn't.

You've missed the point of the thread completely.  There are other threads where your "sufficiently random" post should have gone.

And, as was pointed out (but conveniently ignored), the fact that you love the prequels but hate a movie that isn't even out yet is mind-bogglingly hilarious.
