Am i the only depresed at how shit this story will be? In 30 years in the new disney wars timeline.
X-wings still using rebel alliance logo when by this time the new republic has risen and fallen and the current government of majority is the galactic alliance.
Tie fighters are still the imperials main fightercraft by the looks of it despite the empire going to majority interceptor and then buying non sienar craft by this time.
And that stupid lightsaber shown would just get its hilt emitters cut off in first combat against a compitent jedi.

is exactly what it should like to not be horrible and for just show.j
The ONLY ray of hope i see is the green striped x-wing which gives me a glimmer of hope that its corran horn and abrams hasnt compltly ignored the multitude of amazing characters to pull from. But it just might be random so who knows.
Im sorry but when they announced they would be retconning the EU storyline. There was so much they could have done to work with it. They could have fixed problems and holes, even wreritten some terrible books "children of jedi anyone?". Instead they threw it into the trash. And i have a feeling a part of that was due to the world that it had created child wise. ALot of those books wouldnt be great for some of the feint of heart or children, Main characters died. People were tortured. Trillions died in an invasion. Its not 40k level brutal or violence but still more than what disney would most likely want to market at children. Instead they shit on 20 years of story, 20 years worth of authors, 20 years of video game storyline. And just wanted to pull a star trek and go thier own way. The fact that they used the original actors shows this. Hammil,harrison,fisher are no where even remotely in shape to play themselves now, shes fat, hammils fat and harrison is just frail, they arnt fit to play a jedi knight, jedi grand master and a still in it smuggler rogue.
Ill see the movie but to me it will be nothing more than one that takes place in the star wars universe using the characters and it really means nothing beyond it.
The sad part is there are to many star wars drones that look at nothing past the movies and maby a game or to who just dont care and will sperg at anything with the name or title.
