Yay, not only more Jedi, but a Jedi who supposed to be in hiding on Tatooine.

My interest in this series is officially dead.

 Without knowing the context, it's a little early to be running for the escape pods, don't you think? I don't believe Obi Wan sat around on his butt for twenty years in the desert, doing absolutely nothing, except for sending mental emails to Yoda, and communing with the Force.

Well it's the same creative team behind the show so I'm sure in time we'll be seeing a lot more female characters. Don't forget there's a second main female cast member in the form of the ship's pilot.

You can see a bit more of her in the 30 second version of the trailer.

 I know, and trying not to poo-poo it too much.

But Pink armor? Really? :-P

 Forgotten we've seen a pink R2 unit on TCW already? ;)

The relief that it isn't the Chewie costume from the sixth film seems prevalent.  Should I look up how he was portrayed, or will that be something I'm sorry I saw? 

I'm somewhat curious, but hesitant. 

(shut up, Frink)  ;-)

Ugh. It's like a Halloween mask.

 Worse still, all those overpriced Rubies Chewbacca costumes are based on the Episode III look. :(

I hope their license runs out soon.

Their redesign in ROTS never made any sense to me. As there were Wookiees in TPM and they looked like they fell right out of the OT:

 IIRC, they took one of the original Chewie suits out of storage and recolored the fur for TPM.

The funny thing is, Tarfful and the other Episode III Wooks look better than Chewie did in the movie. I presume it was another attempt at making an OT character look younger, ala Creepy Puppet Yoda.

Star Wars: Episode VII to be directed by J.J. Abrams **NON SPOILER THREAD**
Time

Somebody has to be Major Buzzkill on this I suppose. Someone should archive all the bitter pessimists that will appear between now and when the movie opens. Could be comedy gold. Especially if they change their tune.

I haven't felt this giddy about Star Wars in a long time. Not going to let anyone rain on my parade. :)

What are you talking about? A new trilogy is practically confirmed:

(in all seriousness, though, I'd be really surprised if WB wasn't kicking around the idea of making more)

 As I've said elsewhere, it wouldn't surprise me if Agent Smith and Morpheus doing tv commercials lately was a way to gauge interest in new movies.
