I rarely defend ROTJ as the movie has problems well beyond Death Star 2. The thing about the Death 2 is that it's used in a different context then the Original Star Wars.
The Battle on the Death Star in the Original Star Wars IS the main part of the ending and the pay off of the movie, whereas the battle on Death Star 2 is the secondary ending in ROTJ. The real ending in ROTJ is the Emperor/Vader/Luke Throne Room Scenes as that is the pay off for that movie.
If there is a Superweapon in TFA and its part of the story/ending, then I don't have a problem with it. If the Battle on the Superweapon IS the ending like The Original Star Wars, then it will be kind of lame and unoriginal.

I guess 'Death Moon' just doesn't sound scary enough.

So tickets are really on sale after the trailer premiere tonight? Seems like the type of thing you'd want to start during the day.

What if we've been getting glimpses of Luke all along and have yet to see Adam Driver's character?
I actually think they've done a good job of keeping Luke a mystery including the toys.

You mean aside from showing images of Adam Driver wearing the black masked costume? Well.. sans mask/helmet.

Not sure why some people are so stuck on the Luke thing because he's not on the poster. He's obviously going to be the film's big reveal and is being saved. I also don't think they'll turn him to the dark side as I just think at this point that would be kind of a cop out and would piss a lot of people off.

The only question I have regarding Luke: Has he become as powerful a Jedi as some of the others such as Yoda/Mace? He may have even eclipsed them given how long he had to train.
