Gareth Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Lets see, what smarmy, cynical, self-aggrandizing remark can I make merely for the sake of disagreement. Fuck it, it was pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 That lightsaber looks like a good way to...I don't know...cut off your own hand. I'm intrigued though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Did anybody else expect him to say "we aint found shit"? Fucking Mel Brooks ruined this trailer for me 26 years ago. The sound of an imperial probe droid while the guy was in the desert gave me flashbacks to my childhood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 If the kid from Attack the Block (holy shit, he's an adult now!) is a defecting stormtrooper (or even a loyalist on a mission) rather than a good guy pretending to be a stormtrooper, I will be impressed.

KnightWing Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 That would make a bit of sense, since there've been leaks and rumors associating him with both the good guys and bad. The teaser was actually a little underwhelming for me, mostly because we've seen almost literally everything in it already, either through official channels (the X-wings, the Falcon, the desert planet, John Boyega and Daisy Ridley) or leaks (the stormtroopers). The broadsword lightsaber was the only real surprise in it. But that said, it's still nice to see. The shot of the X-Wings water-skimming is pretty epic. I guess I really just want to know what the hell the plot is and what the characters are doing. I already know that the movie is visually fantastic just from all the photos and talk of practical effects we've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be immersed in the film and go with the story naturally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 To a degree. I just want a vague, general plot synopsis. Maybe some similarly vague, general character descriptions. I don't want the entirety of the movie spoiled, of course, but I'm okay with knowing what square one is in the new movie before I see it.

To be fair, there's going to be a screen crawl that tells you that right at the beginning anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donomark Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 As someone as who's about as familiar with Star Wars as Ian is with comic books, I find it funny that the most online discussion stems from the Light-Saber. Like, ALOT of online discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koete Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Between the new lightsaber, "it's a couple new characters I know nothing about," and "here's a bunch of imagery I saw when I was 8," the new lightsaber is the most interesting thing in that teaser.

KnightWing Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 People are VERY CONCERNED that the imaginary laser-sword's new additions are impractical. I'm pretty sure everything Jedi do is impractical. But then again, we're dealing with clairvoyant telekinetic swordsmen with thousands of years of martial arts history. So really anything goes. Did the Millenium falcon just pull a barn swallow? Stabilized GIF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightWing Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 At this point, I actually prefer Tom Kane's Yoda from The Clone Wars to Oz's Yoda from the prequels. Something about Oz's performance really changed between the trilogies, and not for the better. It could have been a choice, but it might not have been. Tom Kane said that for The Clone Wars, George Lucas specifically asked him to play Yoda "like Empire Yoda" rather than match Oz's prequel-era Yoda voice.
