Well, that sort of depends on what it means.  If the Force "awakening" is sort of like Planet's "awakening"...

The midichlorians, tired of being slaves to the Jedi, and having failed to destroy them with their messiah/Vader begin taking over the weak minded, physically distorting them in the process and an army of deformed mindless slaves wreak havoc on the universe. 

Yes, my mind is that one tracked sometimes.

I've also never understood the whole "bring back balance" to the force somehow translated into destroying anyone practicing the dark side.  That's not balance as I understand it.

Stupid name...
Yeah.  But whatever.  I'll wait for the trailer.

I don't know that it says anything.  Get back to me with the next one.

Well, we know now that there's gonna be at least a few scenes on a planet that looks a lot like Tatooine, which isn't a great sign that it's going to be imaginative...

Oh, well I don't judge on imaginativeness.

You should.  The Empire Strikes Back took us to all new places, and it was best of the lot.  Revenge of the Jedi took us back to Tatooine, and it kinda sucked.  The Phantom Menace took us back to Tatooine, and not even Jake Lloyd's mother liked that one.

I guess Empire Strikes Back did have higher production value.  Or as other people say, the last movie was about furry midgets.  I can't remember what they're called.  Ewoks.  That's not to say it might not be impossible to decently incorporate midgets.  They're still less irritating than Jar Jar.

So by the sounds (heavy breathing), I'm guessing they took some of Khan's magic blood from Abrams' last Star Trek movie and gave it to Darth Vader and resurrected him?

Ghah. The only two reasons I have to see this movie are Harrison Ford and C3P0. And it'll either be on TV or Netflix, since I don't do theatres anymore.

I really hope Abrams isn't counting on current fans not ever having seen the original trilogy and therefore ripping it off in terms of "reimagining" scenes and even the whole ending.

At least his "style" is a better fit for Star Wars - I wish his a lot of success at this, both in hopes of decent Star Wars, and so maybe he'll lose interest in fouling Star Trek.
