So basically the current Star Wars will feature a trailer for the next Star Wars produced by Paramount. Good to know.
Does anyone know if this applies to UK showings?

I like the trailer opening with music. It got my attention right away. I enjoyed comedic character interplay and the fantastic affects. BUT I fear what’s happening with Abrams producing and a Fast and Furious director directing. Fast and Furious is a fun action technology thriller but at times you need to turn off the “physics check” in your brain to make the stunts work. (Take FF7 scene when Vin dives out of the car to save his GF. The ballistics archs don’t match with what he did.) nnSo I’m worried that adding Justin Lin takes us even further in a direction that will turn Trek into a “feel good” science fiction for the scientifically illiterate. I’m happy to be wrong and that they won’t let “what looks cool” trump “what’s technically feasible.” Otherwise we’ll just end up with Pirates of the Caribbean and we won’t even get the charms of Johnny Depp.nnHere’s an article about what Abrams has done with Trek and what we think he’ll do for Star Wars. We finish with a poll to see if Star Wars will be better served by the Abrams/Disney combo or not. http://lancerkind.com/2015/12/15/star-trek-rebooted-now-its-star-wars/
