There's a blade runner pun in there somewhere...

Agreed.
You know what else might be cool is to revisit a moment from one of the original movies, but from a completely different perspective. Like there's some main character in Episode VII who witnessed an event in the original trilogy, but we just never saw that character, who was in the background, or off in the distance or something. Not to where it alters anything, obviously, but it might be fun to just see an old scene from a different perspective.

"[Abrams] had sent me an email out of the blue while they were shooting in Abu Dhabi last month," Smith said, explaining the Star Wars invite.
"So we go to the set and they're actually shooting, and they're shooting -- and this is what I can't tell you what they were shooting -- But what I saw I absolutely loved," he said. "It was tactile, it wasn't a series of f---ing green and blue screens in which later on digital characters would be added. It was there it was happening."
"I saw uniforms, I saw artillery that I haven't seen since I was a kid. I saw them shooting an actual sequence in a set that is real -- I walked across the set, there were explosions -- and it looked like a shot right out of an f--ing Star Wars movie," he said. Smith also got a tour of "Stage M," where he he saw the full scale Millennium Falcon and stepped inside to walk around.
Abrams is "building a tactile world, a world you can touch. And he's replicating it with all the love of somebody that has the world's greatest collection of Star Wars figures," Smith gushed.

This is sounding like it should be good. I'm guessing there will be little to few kid friendly characters.
