Star Wars Episode 7 Trailer
What really stands out for me in the new Star Wars trailer is the shocking lack of lens flares. Nov 28 14 10:17 am Link Caradoc wrote: I watched the new trailer with my son this morning. We are really looking forward to the film. They put it in the right hands in my opinion when they turned it over to JJ Abrams. I loved the Star Trek re-boots. Nov 28 14 12:06 pm Link The scene with the X-wings hooked me. I had some doubts because of that rolling droid and the boxy speeder bike, but the new stormtrooper outfits and the Millenium Falcon also convinced me this will at the very least be visually worth watching. Nov 28 14 01:34 pm Link They're still mucking about with the millenium falcon? Either Han is still conducting missions in his 70's, or else he sold his "bucket of bolts" to the rebels for posterity... Looks... interesting. Hopefully more Jawas and Sandpeople-- with no Ewoks and Binkses... Nov 28 14 01:53 pm Link Oh please J J...bring back the greatest racist cartoon bs...Jar Jar.

Nov 28 14 11:13 pm Link Official Trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMOVFvcNfvE I get that they put it out a year early to generate hype but geez look at all comments. One troll turned it into a race debate. It's fucking Star Wars not Ferguson.. Also the nerds arguing were funny. You know one thing bugged me after ROTJ...... Darthy daddy is dead, Emperor grumpy is dead, but where did all those troops go and all the ships? Surely they just didn't all go "OK we give up" and just capitulate..... Who was running the galaxy? Nov 29 14 12:36 am Link TIMELESS wrote: Actually that and the two X Wings riding on water was the best bit...... Nerds will argue over that lightsaber for a long time. Nov 29 14 12:40 am Link I saw the trailer today and I'm optimistic that it will be good. I know Star Wars nerds are hopefully that JJ Abrams will do the franchise justice. The key is getting back to what made the original trilogy so good - the characters. Special effects are meaningless without compelling characters and storylines. Nov 29 14 02:25 am Link The rolling droid looked really bad. I liked the bulky speeder bike. I want this movie to come out in December 2014.

Nov 29 14 06:54 pm Link John Photography wrote: I didn't see too much of the race stuff but it certainly is a war of the nerds, that's for sure. There is a definite difference between geeks and nerds and the folks arguing as to the exhaust system of light sabers...sorry, those are just nerds... Nov 29 14 07:54 pm Link Shot By Adam wrote: Oh....... I found that trailer on youtube and they must have removed the comments.. There was a lot of people arguing over the black stormtrooper Nov 29 14 09:17 pm Link Did anyone else read the story about how George Lucas asked Mark Hamil if he thinks he would be interested in taking on an Obi Won type roll in around 2011? I recall him saying he had all of the stories written way back when. So maybe that will be Lukes roll. I don't see them turning the hero to the dark side.

Nov 30 14 12:29 pm Link ...and the trailer's already been given the George Lucas Special Edition treatment. I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v93Jh6JNBng Nov 30 14 01:53 pm Link Nov 30 14 01:55 pm Link Caradoc wrote: I was oscillating between whether or not that was depressing or hilarious and then I decided that with JJ Abrams as director we're less likely to get the Lucas treatment. Whew. Nov 30 14 02:59 pm Link Since George Lucas loves $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ someone should suggest to him it's time for a reboot of the "Star Wars Holiday Special" in IMAX Get hasbro onboard lol Nov 30 14 03:21 pm Link Brian Diaz wrote: Everything is better in lego.

Nov 30 14 07:12 pm Link we can bash poor all the way to the 4.6 billion dollars Bank. But...this film coming out in 2015, was planned 30 years ago. It has to do with Luke Skywalker,with a special long past friend, who makes a special guest appearance to create fucking havoc, plus some tweety teens with special powers. George went to Mark in the early 80's..after 30 years later, of The Return of the Redeye. And...my thoughts about the no fun and over produced and directed was George Lucas needed, not a Yes Man, but a hell Fucking Naw Man! jar jar memories. but the story of the new Star Wars is Lucas all the way, with Lawence Kasdans (TESB) writing the screenplay. that is what Lucas needed for the bite hard no fun pre series. A fun writer. At least we are getting John Williams composing along with LSO. Nov 30 14 07:25 pm Link "A more elegant weapon from a more civilized time" That looks like a more crude weapon for a more chaotic time. Dec 01 14 06:23 am Link So upset. I had a audition call for the character Rachel in this movie. Guess I did not do well enough! Dec 02 14 10:51 am Link John Photography wrote: I'm guessing that the guy in the trailer isn't really a storm trooper. All storm troopers are clones of Jango Fette, and the guy in the trailer lacks a certain family resemblance.

Dec 02 14 04:23 pm Link The next Star Wars Trailer will be in Six Months..before the showing of The Avengers. See you then! Dec 02 14 04:32 pm Link I don't trust Mr. Abrams to do right by it. I know I stand in the minority, but his "reboot" ruined a lifelong enjoyment of Star Trek for me. Hated the first reboot, didn't watch the second. That said, I'm results-oriented. I'll be happy if my expectations here are wrong. If we can keep George away from writing dialogue, there's a chance. Dec 03 14 02:01 pm Link TIMELESS wrote: Ep 7,8 & 9 are coming out 2 years apart.
