Star Wars: Episode VII will be directed by JJ Abrams, from a script by Little Miss Sunshine writer Michael Arndt. Lucas will serve as a creative consultant on the new films.

To quote Vader "NOOOOOOOO!"

He's not directing, he's not writing dialogue.

So, he's right where he's good.

MARCUS is building a Warship in secret that is much larger than the enterprise - can travel faster warp speeds - can fire while at warp!!! - can't recall if they actually reference the ship by name in the movie.

The Vengeance.

In the end they just put KHAN back into cryo in a warehouse and set out on the 'five year mission'

Oh good :)

Well those wings are waaaaaay too small

They are tiny compared to what they should be.

Take another look.  It's clearly not a completed drawing.  The struts are an indication of how big the wings will be - and they look in proportion to the cockpit.

So, as goes well with the crane, a TIE under construction?

Interestingly enough I've seen all of Voyager, Deep Space Nine, and The Next Generation. Yet TOS I've yet to complete watching. I guess I feel like once I've done that. That's it. No more Star Trek series for me to watch with completely fresh eyes sort of speak.
What about Enterprise?
I simply don't like Enterprise enough to want to watch the entire thing. I'm pretty confident that I've likely seen the best of Enterprise already anyway.

And finally, the last part of the trailer: WHY WOULD YOU PUT THAT IN THE TRAILER???
Here's what I said: "Oh nice, they put the ending of the movie right on the trailer. Thanks, guys."

 

Butterfield's been talking on reddit, and he (as well as others) made the point that if you haven't read the book, you won't understand why that scene's significant (so it's okay), and if you have, you'll like seeing it (which I did, spoiler concerns notwithstanding). So, okay.

The important question, in my mind: How long is the movie after that scene?

TRAILER: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vP0cUBi4hwE

Well! Thoughts:

They may have compressed the First & Second Invasions into one event. That seems fine, for the sake of simplifying. That being said, the Invasion scenes, Jets vs Buggers, look great.

The trailer does a good job of getting the point across, particularly through Ford's narration. No real telling if this will be a decent performance from him though.

Looks like we might see the surface of the Command School Asteroid?

Valentine & Ender on the lake. Excellent.

And finally, the last part of the trailer: WHY WOULD YOU PUT THAT IN THE TRAILER???

There are two possibilities to this: (1) The two pilots were part of Black Squadron and they were waiting for orders, or (2) they were in fact just random pilots not part of Black Squadron.

lol part of what? Pretty sure I never heard a "Black Squadron" mentioned in any of the films...
