I am REALLY hoping that JJ Abrams and pals can make a better go of the saga than the last pre-trilogy.

The beauty of the first films was the campy sense of humor and warmth. Jar-Jar's movies were so weighed down in galactic politics (yawn)

I saw some photo stills on TMZ and I am THRILLED that the new movies will have less CGI and more "muppetty" latex real-life prop effects. I love CGI when it is used well and supports the story. I hated the use of CGI in the jar jar trilogy---nothing felt "real"

Go latex characters!!

OK SW fans, does anyone know what species Yoda is? Does it even have a name?
