Is there going to be any blockbusters coming out soon?

or it'll be leaked 3 months early and be seen as a CGI crapfest. I'm hoping not, but so far it's all just random CGI and harrison ford looking like he's 80. either way, expectations are going to be so high that it'll be hard to lvie up to.

Well, at least it's J.J. Abrams and not George Lucas behind the camera.

I watched this in my office and almost screamed when I saw the end. I'm a huge Star Wars nerd. I can't wait for this movie. JJ Abrams continues to feed my Star Trek/Star Wars geekness

Abrams did a good job when he rebooted Star Trek, I think he'll be fine with Star Wars.

I've read the Abrams has dialed down the CGI (for example the little droid is actually a prop, not CGI. But then again, I don't the whole hate for CGI; we have technology, it is much better now than let's say early 2000s.

he needs to raffle that off after these movies are done. I could see that sitting in my back yard

there's no hate for cgi here. look at winter soldier, best cgi/effects in a movie, maybe ever, because it blended in. unlike say transformers, where they threw particle effects into the camera every 15 seconds to let you know about how much they paid for their renderfarm. effects should support the story, not be the story.

abrams did well with trek (Except for the lens flares in every frame of every scene).
