Oh, it so isn't. It's fantastic. The numerals appeared nowhere in the original trilogy marketing. It wasn't until the prequels that they became a thing.

Getting rid of them is actually a masterful part of the nostalgia of it all and kind of a finger to GL. Which, good for JJ.
I don't think that's true. I believe ESB was always Ep. 5. ANH got the episode# long before the prequels.

I'm enjoying all the nerdgasms in this thread almost as much as the trailer itself.

Guys, it's the NFL that got rid of the Roman numerals. I'm sure they'll be there in the opening scrawl.

Right, it'll be there in the opening like it's always been. But not in the advertising. Which is a good thing.

In the marketing and in the movie are seperate things. I'm 99% sure that my SW VHS tapes all had episode #.
