Nothing spoilerish, really - there was, for example, a very large practical creature that is allegedly piloted from the inside by five technicians. <br /><br />A video I recommend checking out (again, no spoilers except for the implied identity of a certain planet): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfNiC9iKM0Q <br /><br />Abrams is on set of the new film, talking about a charity cause. While he's addressing the camera, a creature ambles over from - a beautiful, practical, puppet-faced animatronic costume that looks right out of the Henson workshop. That strikes me as a purposeful bit of marketing to assuage at least one valid worry about the new films!Joelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16549842364301067280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-47155460904907013362014-06-11T07:46:19.501-04:002014-06-11T07:46:19.501-04:00I agree with Bean.
