    Didn't see a thread about this so I though I'd post this little tidbit:

    Have a feeling episode 8 will be the best Star Wars movie of all time because of the seemingly unlimited ways they can go with the story, and what Rian Johnson did with the most recent X Men was really epic.

    God, now I'm scared again.
    Not really scared in a concrete way, more like a general anxiety

    Weird huh? That doesn't tell us much, except possibly that its not going to mirror ESB as JJ did with TFA and ANH. Just hope we get weirder planets this time around, Jakku and Takadona were very underwhelming.

    Get ready for the Episode 8 bashers to say that this movie is 'too weird', while they continue to say 'TFA is too much like ANH', and the 'Prequels are too different then the OT'. ;)

    As long as the weirdness comes from the force and not a bunch of modern plot structuring, I'm cool.

    I look forward to hearing more about the script/treatment/movie, as "weird" could mean any number of things.

    Rey sprouts her ears around 31 years old, while her skin gradually turns more orange as she ages .

    Eh, X-men? I didn't know he was involved in that? In any case, it will be interesting how the story evolves from now on.

    This is the guy who just recreated ANH beat for beat, so maybe "weird" just means "not a loose remake of The Empire Strikes Back".

    Does "Weird" mean Time Travel in Star Wars (could that be the only way we get Darth Vader in the new trilogy)

    I'd like to point out that ANH was a weird movie when it came out.

    A walking dog man?

    Your mileage may vary, but it is an accurate assessment!
