Star Wars: The Force Awakens (12/18/15)

[Wor-Gar]

First Order, huh? That's the new rising Empire?

I hope the guy in black at center stage of the stormtroopers Aryan meeting is a better villain than that masked man in black they call "sith".

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Best photo I could find of the promo pics of Poe, Rey and Finn from today's event.

Rey's costume is very reminiscent of Luke's farmboy costume. The wraps on her arms are very similar to the wraps on Luke's lower legs.

Things are so much different now. So so much different.
Disney won't and can't risk making a movie as awful as that. The director I more competent

Here's hoping everyone's learnt from the mistakes of the past. Just sayin' don't read too much into the teasers, great as they might be.

(For the record, I'm not a prequel hater)

Rey's costume is very reminiscent of Luke's farmboy costume. The wraps on her arms are very similar to the wraps on Luke's lower legs.

So, is the general consensus that Rey is Han and Leia's daughter? Teaser seems to suggest she has Skywalker lineage and she has a strong resemblance to Padme.

She looks very majestic. Like it could be a painting or something

 

[Wor-Gar]

Love the GONK behind Poe.

i thought the new trailer was totally on point... i feel like we have seen so much and yet, there is so much we haven’t seen… a great balance...

 

[Wor-Gar]

I don't feel like I know anything about this movie other that what I would have guessed it would be about 30 years ago -- the Skywalker lineage.

I want to keep it this way. Unlike Avengers which seems to have shown so much of that movie's action scenes.


So far the trailer are working.

 

[Matt S]

same. Trailers today show way too much.

 

[automaton]

keeping a little mystery is essential... this is what helped make the OT experience... our own imaginations had to fill in the blanks.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Be interesting if they didn't even make a trailer or any commercials. It's Star Wars... its doesn't need any trailer to sell it.

 

[Ehollywood]

I Love how gritty and grimy everything looks. It looks lived in just like the original films.

I wouldn't be surprised if she was hidden in the desert like Luke was (or kidnapped) and is actually Han and Leia's daughter.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Considering it is the most visited planet in the Galaxy, how does Tatooine stay so quiet?

not to sell it, but to add fuel to our imaginations... my first glimpse of Boba Fett did more for the character than any EU because it sat with me simmering. i can only imagine how many 10 year olds today will experience the same with Captain Phasma or Kylo Ren.

Whose Captain Phasma? Is that the chrometrooper?

 

[Cixx]

Best thing i've seen in years.

 

[automaton]

i believe so.

for whatever reason, she was a surprise highlight for me... perhaps the literally "head nod" to Fett.

 

[Deckard]

Yes, Phasma is the Chrome Trooper played by Gwendoline Christie from Game of Thrones.

Oh.... a girl AND chrome. That's wild. Give the girl some bling and a cape. Makes sense now.
