Disney has done it!!!

Rating: 2/10 (22 December 2015)

They have managed to pull the wool over everyone's eyes and successfully reboot George Lucas' original masterpiece. Much like Senator Palpatine (Darth Sidious), Disney's plan to overthrow the gullible Star Wars fans (Galactic Republic), was devious and ingenious when you think of it.
I started having doubts when I first saw the name they came up with for this movie "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" appear on IMDb. "Wait, where is the Episode VII part in the title?" I thought to myself. Every other movie from the franchise listed on IMDb has an episode number associated with it in the title; so why isn't there an Episode VII in this one?
Then the first teaser which featured a desert planet that greatly resembled Tattoine, hit the web. I said to myself, OK cool, they're going back to Tattoine, but afterwards, I found out the planet was named Jakku. Why introduce us to another desert planet called Jakku, instead of using one that was already established in the Star Wars universe and familiar to everyone? My doubts about this movie continuing the saga started to resurface once more.
Then when I saw the official poster, my doubts were not entirely confirmed, but they sure as hell got another kick in the wrong direction. Nowhere on the poster do we see Episode VII. The official posters for the other movies since the prequels first came out, even the newly remastered original trilogy, all have an "Episode" number, so why not this one?
Then I saw the movie and all my fears were confirmed. They rebooted Star Wars. Even after watching the movie, people aren't entirely convinced (maybe it's shell shock from all the explosions going on throughout the movie), but all you have to do is replace the names of the characters in the plot synopsis of Star Wars: Episode IV with those of this movie and there is your proof.
"The plot focuses on the Rebel Alliance (Resistance), led by Princess Leia, and its attempt to destroy the Galactic Empire's (the First Order's) space station, the Death Star (Starkiller Base). This conflict disrupts the isolated life of farmhand Luke Skywalker (scavenger Rey) who inadvertently acquires a pair of robots known as droids (a droid known as BB-8) that possess stolen architectural plans for the Death Star (a map to the location of Luke Skywalker). When the Empire (First Order) begins a destructive search for the missing droid(s), Skywalker (Rey) agrees to accompany Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi (Han Solo) on a mission to return the Death Star plans (map) to the Rebel Alliance (Resistance) and save the galaxy from the tyranny of the Galactic Empire (First Order)."
How is this "not" a reboot? It's a facsimile of Lucas' original crowning achievement. To me, and many other real Star Wars fans (the Rebel Alliance if you will), Star Wars died many years ago when Luke Skywalker removed Darth Vader's helmet. As Vader breathed his last breath of air without the help of his respirator, so did Star Wars. Everything after Return of the Jedi just falls flat on it's face, including this plagiarized copy.
Years from now, once they are done killing off the remaining "original" cast members, if they haven't already planned it, I'm sure some suit and tie guy in an office at Disney Studios will get the great idea to go back and remake all the other movies that came before this one, including the original trilogy, thus erasing George Lucas from the equation all together.
