Hey guys, Luke told you himself- "this is not going to go the way you think."
That line is the final nail in the coffin of "this trailer reveals nothing about the plot." Nobody should be upset about spoilers.
I'm just glad we didn't get a fourth Death Star in this trailer. I liked the trailer mostly. It makes it seem like we're going to get more of a character story and less of a kill-the-giant-space-laser story.
I think Disney is smart enough to know that they have to take some risks in this film; it can't be Empire all over again and it can't just be a mirror of Anakin's story. They can get away with doing a soft reboot for the first of the new trilogy but not twice in a row. I have faith in Disney because:
A. They paid $4 billion for this property and have a vested interest in not ****ing it up
B. They're not going to make the same mistakes Lucas did when making the prequels
I'm concerned about Disney because:
A. They may play it too safe. Instead of going for something unique, with heart and soul and character and a unique story, this could end up being the product of committee think. (There are pros and cons to film by committee design)
B. Maybe they will make the same mistakes Lucas did in the prequels. Whose idea was it to put cute cuddly furbies in Star Wars? Why does Chewie look like he's CG?
I dunno, overall I'm excited but I've been burned by star wars before so it's cautious excitement. I'll never forget the feelings of disappointment I had coming out of Episodes 2 and 3.
