I think I must be the only one not super hyped about this teaser. The special effects look about the same as usual and it revealed precisely nothing surprising unless you count the black guy.
Because this one isn't written and heavily influenced by George Lucas. By all accounts, he was responsible for the crappy dialogue and stupid plots from Episodes I-III. Oh and there won't be any Hayden Chistensen to completely pineapple up the acting. JJ Abrams has a pretty good track record with sci-fi series/movies so I'm pretty optimistic that he can turn Star Wars around. That said, I've got a healthy dose of skepticism since I'm a fan of the written Expanded Universe and know it could be a complete flop. I think they should be enjoyable and have the potential to be fantastic as long as fans don't let the hype create unrealistic expectations.

I guess Star wars is like the movie equivilant of the sonic franchise.
