Orablanco Account 3,708 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 (edited) Yes. Trying not to get over-hyped (this could end up being a bucket of suck for all we know), but this looks pretty wizard so far. I'm particularly fond of how it looks to have a better balance of CGI and practical effects than the Prequels, in that there is practical effects at all. The desert planet is kind of redundant, though. I guess they used up all the "this planet is entirely made up of _____" ideas around the time they made a lava planet that seemed to exist solely to provide a cool background for a laser sword fight. I'd argue that The Phantom Menace broke ground with a planet made entirely of mediocrity. What do you think? Does the combination of Luke Skywalker's ominous narration and the image of Darth Vader's burnt-put helmet give you chills? Does the return of Han Solo fill you with warm sense of nostalgia and hope? Do you still think that lightsaber broadsword is freaking dumb? DISCUSS. Edited April 16, 2015 by CITRUS KING46 1 Onwards to my DeviantArt page! Sig by the illustrious Kyoshi!

Mand'alor Dash 2,225 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 "This Christmas... The black guy isn't really a stormtrooper, he's just wearing the armor like Luke did in A New Hope." But really, I can't wait to see this movie. It's been so long since we last had a Star Wars movie, and even longer since we had a traditional one. Thank god it's finally coming. 1 Amoral cynic with a bitchin' vocabulary. Check out A Century of Song if you like music from before this millennium.

CC_Maud_Pie 6,431 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 There's gonna be a lot of action. Can't wait until December. All my life needed was a sense of someplace to go. I don't believe that one should devote his life to morbid self-attention. I believe that someone should become a person like other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderchild 875 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 Oh this is going to be so cool. I was 7 years old when the first one came out-the thrill of that musical score has never left me. Can't wait to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAnimationFanatic 3,608 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 In JJ we trust. Seriously, this looks amazin. And that shot with Han Solo and Chewbacca at the end sold the movie for me. "Work Hard!

Admiral Regulus 2,769 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 I'll be seeing this on opening night, even if it means I need to fight a thousand stormtroopers to get a seat in the theater. Tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Letter 1,832 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 Eh, it could be good. Could be bad. Perhaps I'll go see it. I am not sure though. I don't know how a franchise that has fallen so far could ever recover to be honest. Silver Letter!!!

Princess Periwinkle 3,778 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 Some of it was so cheesy. xP Heck, it's Star Wars, though, so at least they're keeping to their roots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsolete 681 April 16, 2015 Share April 16, 2015 Well then. Ever since Abrams' hiring I've suspected that this would be little more than a nostalgia parade, and the footage presented thus far has done little to assuage my fears. It all looks very nice, yes, but it also seems to be riding too heavily on OT iconography. I only hope it can establish its own identity. On a less cynical note, the shot of the downed Star Destroyer is quite beautiful and I still dig the little ball droid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
