You have to wonder what the point of making the EU non-canon if they were just going to use it anyway for their new movie. It's also saying something when the best plot threads are ones that didn't originate from Abrams and everything he came up with is kind of bad.

They could have just adapted the Thrawn trilogy and given us a better story.

Sounds good.
okay verb
Its literally better than the Prequels combined.

You act like that's an achievement.
Considering everything...yeah, it is. People were saying it would be worse, but hey, its much much much better.

There's no way it could have been worse than the prequels. SW7 won't be a bad movie in all likelihood, but it won't be a good one either. Just typical hollywood meh action flick.
You're from the future? I can't believe you have seen all of the action, drama pieces, and acting of the film already! Oh I can't believe that the barebones of the plot here gave you that!

There's actually more than what Icy said out there. Also when you take the lead actors and director into account you shouldn't really expect much.

Because the EU was a mess. Making it non-canon and then pulling from it is much better. It cleans it up, and the material is still useable

horse shit and pig shit are still shit
What's so bad about the story? Its better that they re-use some plotlines instead of making some shit that would ruin the franchise, even better if they use some EU stuff that were fairly good. This isn't like Halo 5 which made a retarded plot from the start.
I never once said anything about EU stuff being used

Must've confused you with LC.

How the hell did I do that? Fuk

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
Has Abrams ever made a good story that wasn't blatantly ripping off of something else, especially in the own franchise?

But you could have also just said everything other than this this and this is non-canon instead of nuking the entire thing. For example, what was the point in nuking the KOTOR era? It's so far removed from the movie era that it doesn't have an effect on anything that goes on during it.

Because nuking it all is easier

I've seen enough trash compactors with Dianoga in them to know where this is going.

I'm sure it'll be a much better watch than the prequels but that's a damn lazy plot if I've ever seen one.

I can pretty much confirm the part about Han dying, which gives credibility to the other spoilers.

Harrison Ford said five years ago he would only do the project of Han died in it so he would never have to make another.

Harrison Ford wouldn't even do the picture unless they agreed kill Solo on screen.

It's not a surprise, it's not a spoiler, it was the terms of engagement laid down five years ago.

How are you shocked they killed off Han? Harrison has been asking for that to happen since ESB.

Because I expected JJ to play it rather safe since it's the first movie, and killing off one of the big 3 is always a huge risk.

He said he wouldn't do 7 unless they killed him off.
