Just watched the trailer.

Exactly what I expected.

Lots of dazzling FX shots, and no real indication that this film would have any heart to it.

That's what differentiates the old SW films from the new: some semblance of emotional content.

Athe Ugh House on Saturday, we were trying to muster a new hope and some enthusiasm for this film, and someone said that they doubted that G Lucas had spent the last three years back in film school learning how to write and direct a good movie. That about summed it up.

I think he got lucky with Star Wars (Ep IV), and he hired a solid director and a solid screenwriter to do The Empire Strikes Back. He also conceptualized Indiana Jones, and then let Steve Spielberg direct it. Good move.

He's a good 'idea man', but he needs some help actually making good movies.
