It's miles better than the new one, which is far too busy.

The new one isn't by Drew Struzan which is lame.

Is Drew Struzan the person who drew (arf) the old poster?
I've just watched a trailer. I'm not sure if I'll go now. Judging from the brief glimpses of the new protagonists, the acting will consist of the same expressionless gurning and gawping that seems to be all the current crop of non-actors are capable of. Not that I expected anything better, but it's still disappointing.
As a more minor concern, when will they understand that the old Star Wars was watchable partly because the action sequences weren't as ridiculously overwrought as they can now make them with rubbish-looking computer graphics? I thought they were going to go back to model-making? Maybe they have, but the trailer certainly doesn't look like it.

yep, and many other iconic posters.
There's a good documentary about him that was released a while back. I think he's technically retired but big directors keep begging him to do more posters.

I think they have (see comic con reel), certainly more than the prequels, the trailers are doing a good job of showing lots of familiar stuff but not revealing any plot details. It might be why we're not seeing much acting.

Unfortunately no; it only shows that the personnel can't act.
While I do understand that they want to show FX, traditionally plays and films (ones that had scripts and not just storyboards masquerading as scripts) had expositions, which were essentially the bits that you could reveal to an audience and whose nature made them perfectly suited for this, as a good exposition introduces the characters and themes of a film without, indeed, giving any of the ideas away (if there are any ideas). All we see here is some growling by some new evil force that comes along and picks up where Darth Vader left off. Yawn. Of course, it could all be an elaborate ruse, but I rather doubt that.

It's a really dramatic poster then you notice Ford looking like he's lost something and is a bit sad.
