Whoa. Whoa. You guys can be jaded, but I'm going to be over here wetting myself.

The apprentice has become the master.

Yeah if people are tired of it that's cool, but I'm really excited now. It really seems like Abrams is going to do this right.
I'm not sure that "going to do" is appropriate now, "is doing" seems best. It's happening, and heck, he's even showed off the practical effects outside of the movie sets. Just look further up this thread about Star Wars Celebration and the little droid.
Considering Abrams is writing it, I think we're okay on that front (granted, he's writing it with Lawrence Kasdan, but he co-wrote Empire and Raiders so I'm not worried at all).

Some insane fans have redone and remastered the WHOLE original trilogy in both video and audio from old film footage.
Color correction and other edits have created possibly the best form of the original trilogy that anyone can find, in full 720p HD.
The projects page is here http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/to...zed-Edition-HD-V25-MKV-IS-OUT-NOW/topic/12713/
You can download it by BitTorrent and from the online sharing community tehPARADOX.COM http://tehparadox.com/forum/f89/harmys-star-wars-trilogy-despecialized-2543089/
Right, but we don't have that color correction in the unaltered versions of those scenes. If you watch the unaltered DVDs, it's obvious when the source footage cuts to the laserdisc.
New and very small teaser released on Instagram.
Rumor has it Disney will be re-releasing the de-specialized Original Trilogy.
Not confirmed, but the source is credible.

Now it'll be interesting to see which is better: the official release or the fan-made de-specialization.
At worst, its existence means that Disney won't be able to get away with half-assing it.

I don't mind them "cleaning up" the OT, and make it HD compatible. I just didn't want extras that were distracting. The Special Edition sins were far more minor than adding Hayden Christian to RotJ or the bloated bore of the prequels.
Thats classic Star Wars poster though. Look at the ones for the original trilogy.
Oh no... oh no oh no oh no.
It's official... I've caught the hype. I thought I could resist hype until I saw it, and not have hype ruin my experience, but it's all over now.
THIS IS GONNA BE THE BEST MOVIE EVER!!!!!!11!11 And if it isn't the most amazing thing I've ever seen I will immediately hate it.
Funny because I was thinking the exact same thing before Phantom Menace came out.
I have to admit that I was in a strong state of denial after seeing The Phantom Menace.
Personally, I don't think it or the prequels are that bad. They can't even hold a candle to the original trilogy, but I never outright hated them like some people do.
I hated them more after watching the 'what if the prequels had been good' videos, and realized how much better they could have been had there been anyone there to slap George Lucas and tell him no.
Someone improved the poster:
