looks bad ass, and non-Jar Jar Binks-ish

The new teaser! Just outstanding. I love the music near the end of the clip. Squueee~!

wowowowow! I'm happy they have not screw it with the stormtroopers.

It may be early, and it's a lot of quick shots but at it doesn't have an overcooked-CGI look like the prequels had.  Perhaps actually using real props instead of using CGI for everything gives a much better look and feel and probably also helps the actors appear less wooden.

I just love Star Wars... We watched it as a family when I was 12 or something, and I remember it being a big event.

Then when I was a fantastically nerdy middleschooler I read a ton of star wars fiction.

It's looking good... Real good!

Can't wait.

OMG!

I feel like I'm 11 again.  Can't wait for this!

I've been burned so many times and betrayed by George that I cannot allow myself to get excited by this.

[CodeMonk]

Looking forward to it.

Hope it doesn't suck (IMO) like the prequels though.
I'm a little bit of a Star Wars geek.
Not geeky enough to have the dolls (Sorry, "Action Figures"), and stuff, but I was geeky enough to ask my (then) girlfriend for ALL the movies (1 - 6) for my birthday one year.
And she was geeky enough to know what I was talking about and to buy the right versions for me (She's also an EE).

I thought you were going to say you got your girlfried to dress up in that Leia outfit

This one?

"can I... touch your buns?"

I am really getting jazzed. The new trailers *seem* to  indicate that CGI is perhaps less of a role in the new film. I love me some CGI, but not everything in a scene other than human actors needs to be computer generated.

I'm cautiously optimistic.

It makes it easier for the actors to get into the role. One DC fanfic I read had a character planning on having actors voluntarily go through Martian Manhunter brain-massaging to *really* get into roles.
