Even as I huge star wars fan, I'm not getting my hopes up with this movie yet.

Disney has shown big signs of treating Star Wars as one of their "Tearing it to shreds and make an abomination" series rather than "We just own it, but we'll it do it's own thing" series seeing as how they are not only making Leia a Disney Princess but declared anything outside the movies (All of star wars best lore and story-telling) as being non-canon. Big indicators they see star wars as a cash in rather than something to respect and keep flourishing (Though to be fair, George Lucas can be criticized for the same).

Regardless of such, even if there was no concerns about Disney trying to just cash in they still set the standards/expectation even higher for themselves. Because now they don't only need to make a movie worthy of the other movies, but they need to make a movie worthy of replacing the many years of the expanded star wars universe.
