Humans will be back, they are the antagonist of the story. Hard to say in what capacity. JC has set the table, it is a very broad one. The story is whatever he makes it at this point hard to say what it will be. After watching all the detail, time and technology develpment that was invested in the first film through the making of segments in the collectors edition DVD, I am not concerned with what the story will be, I know he won't allow something of this magnitude to be rushed or infringed upon in any way. JC exceeded my expectations with this one, he has my attention now.
