   Yet at least the prequels are here and we know how good or

   The key word is 'logical'. All of the Star Wars movies have   
   had different people working on them, including different   
   writers. The new trilogy is no different. Arguably the new   
   trilogy is closer to the original in terms of the people   
   involved (at least the first one is). If you sat down and   
   watched all 6 existing movies I seriously doubt you could   
   tell me who wrote the scripts and who directed each one or   
   even if they were the same people if you did not already   
   know. The fact that there are new people involved in the   
   movies is NOT a logical reason to assume that they will not   
   fit in. It is also NOT logical to assume that they won't fit   
   in because it has happened to other franchises especially   
   when in most of those cases they were not intended to in the   
   first place. There is currently no existing fact that I am   
   aware of (certainly none that you have pointed out) that   
   points to the new movies not fitting in with the previous   
   ones. You have stated only the creator has a 'moral' right   
   to make changes to a franchise. If that is the case there   
   would be no more Star Trek and no more Star Wars. I don't   
   think there are very many fans who want that.   
      
   You seem to have something personal against Abrams. Why? He   
   seems to have done a good job on the movies and tv shows he   
   has worked on. The decision to change the Trek timeline was   
   not his (or certainly not his alone). What else is it you   
   don't like about him?   
      
   The new movies may fit in or they may not, they may be good   
   or they may be crap, but I don't think there is anything so   
   far to inspire anything other than cautious optimism about   
   the outcome. The fact that new Star Wars movies are being   
   made is, for now, a good thing not a bad one. It's a shame a   
   supposed fan doesn't see it that way. :-\
