That is my understanding, yes. Disney wanted him to do all three, initially.

Abrams style is an obvious fit for Star Wars. The other two are unmown quantities to me but I guess that's irrelevant until we have an idea where the story is headed.

Big lightsaber/force battle with Luke and Ren at some point though.

two more TV spots are up. Maybe 1-2 new seconds of footage.

And while we have all started to pine for less footage, it's probably worth remembering that at this point it's directed more towards people like my dad, who aren't following this online and need to catch a random TV spot to be reminded to go see it.

So if this everything we have 17 trailers with 4 minutes and 15 seconds of footage. That's practically nothing

And it mostly means nothing to me since I have no frame of reference for most of it.

This was made three weeks ago, and there's been a number of very short trailers and clip packages (19 of them total, actually) released since then. So we're probably closer to five minutes by this point.

You have to admit, that is a very "prequel" thing to do.

I just watched a new hope and empire last night . The silly conversations between R2 and 3po are very prevalent there as well.
