Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens trailer

Here’s trailer #1.

So that’s the trailer that was theater-exclusive?

Is there an explanation for why the storm trooper in the trailer doesn’t look like Jango Fett?

The CG paired with CG (ie:no actors) looks good in the trailer but I’m still leery of any Star Wars with CG in it.

Sure is. I’m looking forward to this movie.
That strange lightsaber though looked crazy dangerous. Try wielding that without chopping your hands off.

Hint: He’s not a stormtrooper.

That would make more sense, though with all the Extended Universe stuff going out the window (again) I’m not sure who he is.

I just don’t want to get my hopes up for this one; I’m not a JJ fan.

Someone stayed up all night to create a Lego version of that trailer.

The extended universe isn’t necessary for episode 7, George Lucas already had the idea for this one written down it was just never made into a movie. The writers basically worked off of his idea and ran with it. Think of it as him pulling a Luke Skywalker and Han Solo stormtrooper in disguise stunt from episode 4.

That was nicely done. Kudos to the creator.

###‘Star Wars: Rogue One’ and ‘Episode VIII’ Helmer Confirmed
Mar 12th, 2015

Director Gareth Edwards’ stand-alone Star Wars movie will be titled Rogue One and star Felicity Jones, Disney chairman and CEO Bob Iger announced this morning at the studio’s annual shareholder meeting.

Iger also confirmed that Rian Johnson will write and direct Star Wars: Episode VIII.

Rogue One is the first stand-alone movie in the Star Wars series and will explore characters outside the scope of the main movie series.

Kathleen Kennedy and Tony To are producers and John Swartz is co-producer. The movie is scheduled to begin shooting this summer in London with a release date of Dec. 16, 2016.

Johnson’s Episode VIII is set for release May 26, 2017, and will continue the story from Star Wars: The Force Awakens, due out Dec. 18, 2015. Kennedy and Ram Bergman, are on board as producers.

I dunno, something seems off as I watched the new Star Wars trailer (both online later and live on MNF) and it didn’t leave me wanting to see the movie.

The last trailer deliberately de-emphasises the “big action aspect”, plus we’ve already gotten a bit used to the look & feel of this movie from the earlier trailers and it’s lost the “new” feeling.

I think everyone was kind of hoping for a quck shot of the new monster weapon blowing up a star / solar system.

So, yeah I can see where it feels “off”.

Regardless the usual suspects here are going to the theater for it in December, of course, so time will tell.
