!! SPOILERS !! Star Wars 7 - Just a Remake?

[Soundwave]

What's wrong with ONE Star Wars movie that calls back to the originals.

The original is FORTY YEARS OLD just about, lol.

We've had three movies so distant and removed from the feel of the OT and even ten years since the last one of those.

Besides what's the fascination with "doing something different"?

I don't want to see a Rocky movie where he takes up cooking and decides to focus on running a restaurant. I want to see one where he or someone he's training has to have a predictable training montage and then it ends with a big fight.

I don't want to see a James Bond where he decides to follow his dream of being a stand up comic and settles down to get married. I want to see a James Bond movie where he's driving an Aston Martin, drops the panties of some hot girl 20 years younger than him (or multiple girls), and saves the world from some bad guy bent on world domination.

If I want to see something different ... I'll watch a movie that isn't Star Wars. There's plenty of new/surprising things in this movie if you didn't spoil yourself anyway. I must've missed Maz Kanata, a stormtrooper who rebels against his battallion, searching for the long lost Obi-Wan Kenobi, an emotionally conflicted young bad guy in A New Hope.
