I like the new Sith lightsaber. The regular lightsaber will still be on show (presumably) so I do not understand the big deal. Sure some argue that it is more of a hindrance/dangerous to use (and unrealistic). Well, so is a regular lightsaber. Only Jedi's have proper training to use such weapons, therefore this is why you do not see storm troopers wielding them.
Star Wars is science fiction. It does not need to be 'realistic'. The Jedi's move ships with their mind and shoot lightning from their fingers.
Star Wars is meant to be fun. I am sure that is what this movie will be.
I am sure everyone can agree it will not be the abomination that is the prequel trilogy.
