Why where there no mexicans in the star wars movies?
Cause they dont work in the future either
Where are the North Koreans? And do they worship the eternal leader in Star Wars? ???they took over the earth and forced all the americans to run away deep in the space..
Nice of Mark Hamill to dress up for the event.
What Harrison Ford ain't doing it? ::)
No name actors, sacriliged brand
Jippiiee
I'd love to know how much the original cast members are getting paid for this.Fantastic memories!!
In 1977 through 1978 me and my friend would cut school, go to the matinee in the late morning and sit there all day. We sat through 2-4 showings. We took our light sabers with us and waved them around in the dark. The people who worked in the movie theater got to know us and let us do it. What a great time in my life that was.
The original cast members look like a bunch of old farts now. It's all for publicity. What a joke!
WHats plot gonna be? I hope The Emperors ghost is in it!
The Empire was never destroyed in Return of the Jedi, so like the books, they maybe still control a large chunk of territory.
Huge nerd boner over this.did god create star wars?

Let's face it, it's going to be a load of shit like episodes I - III. A lot of guys my age will be excited about the film when it first comes out, but it will only be worth watching once.

Would nt a young Darth Vader spin off movie be great! Like showing him as a kid and how he got into the Jedi stuff!
What role is Kevin Levrone playing?
The coolest spin off would be a Palpatine spin off showing him trained by Darth whatever and eventually slaying him,
i'd love to see this in the theaters. 8) who is the sith? from what i get, disney won't do violence in the movies. :(
Disney Wars: The Romper Room Saga.
I seriously doubt it!
With JJ Abrams at the helm I expect very, very good things.
In all honesty I bet this sequel trilogy is better than the original trilogy.
JJ did such a great job with the new Star Trek films (that I really like) and is such a huge Star Wars nerd from the very beginning I think he'll deliver something great! This will not be another Phantom Menace situation...no, no, no....reassured this will deliver like Empire did!
Good point!

I never been a fan of star trek, but did watch Star Trek and Star Trek Into the Darkness and thought they were fucking awesome! had to get them on blu-ray
When Disney acquired Marvel and Star Wars they promised the properties would not become "The Magic Kingdom".

Carrie Fisher Lost 40 Pounds for New Star Wars Movie: "She Looks Terrific," Says Mom Debbie Reynolds
Carrie Fisher wants to get that metal-bikini body back!
The actress will reprise her role as Princess Leia in the upcoming, highly anticipated film Star Wars: Episode VII, and she didn't waste any time getting into shape for the movie. In fact, Fisher has already lost 40 pounds since being cast in the flick!
"She's very excited about it," mom Debbie Reynolds tells Mario Lopez on Extra. "She's been on a diet ever since because you know they have to be up to par, so she looks terrific. She's lost 40 pounds. She's very excited, as we all are, because we all love Star Wars."
Last year, Fisher told the Calgary Herald , "I'm glad they are doing a new movie because they are sending a trainer to my house so I can get in really good shape.So I'm really eating a lot of sugar in advance, as you can see. By the time I really get down to it I will have eaten everything."
The 57-year-old star will be reunited with Harrison Ford (Han Solo) and Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), along with a number of newcomers, in the J.J. Abrams-directed Episode VII, which is slated for a December 2015 release date and reportedly has a working title of Star Wars: Episode VII - The Ancient Fear.
"We are so excited to finally share the cast of Star Wars: Episode VII," Abrams said in a statement. "It is both thrilling and surreal to watch the beloved original cast and these brilliant new performers come together to bring this world to life, once again. We start shooting in a couple of weeks, and everyone is doing their best to make the fans proud."

Atöeast bem affleck didnt grt a role as a jedi
lool and ruin another movie before it even gets finished just by being in it...
I liked some of his latest stuff like The Town but nah, he's not batman.
Black guy in the lead in a star wars movie? Hell nawwwww

Why does the cast look like their wardrobe came from Goodwill? ;D
Are they getting enough mileage out of Tatooine? It's a backwater planet that was supposed to represent the ass-end of existence where nothing happened in the first movie, before young Luke discovered his destiny and made his way out into the big wide galaxy. Yet it became the planetary equivalent of boba fett , something that was cool for 5 minutes but got ridiculously overused in the prequels.. and now we're back there again for the reboot. yay.
The total lack of imagination with the franchise is partly why I'm not that upset to no longer be working for Lucas :-X
Good point. They need continuity. Also, it's a place that readily exists... no need to build elaborate sets.

The Force has been released.
John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, and Max von Sydow will join original cast members Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, and Kenny Baker in “Star Wars: Episode VII.”
Disney and Lucasfilm made the announcement Tuesday, as casting speculations have run wild for months. Variety was first to report that Driver was in talks for the villain and that Boyega was on the short list for the male lead.
“We are so excited to finally share the cast of ‘Star Wars: Episode VII.’ It is both thrilling and surreal to watch the beloved original cast and these brilliant new performers come together to bring this world to life, once again,” said J.J. Abrams, who is directing the new film. “We start shooting in a couple of weeks, and everyone is doing their best to make the fans proud.”
While descriptions of characters were left out of the release, sources confirm to Variety that Driver will play a Darth Vader-like main villain, Isaac’s character will have a Han Solo look to him and Boyega will be a Jedi.
It’s unclear who Ridley who will play, but sources have always said the children of Solo and Princess Leia would play a part in the film. Ridley could possibly play their daughter.
In a recent earnings called, Disney chief Bob Iger said this latest installment will be set 30 years after 1983′s “Return of the Jedi” and will feature new and familiar faces.
Abrams and partner Bryan Burk are producing this film through their Bad Robot banner with Kathleen Kennedy exec producing for Lucasfilm. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan did a recent rewrite to the script.

Lol how is there a chocolate face trooper. They were all cloned so they should look like boba fet ???
How about this...
'Star Wars: Episode VII’ - REPARATIONS

Jango Fett.
But, maybe they ran out of clones, as this is 30 years later.
Oh yes my mistake. Boba was his "son"
Lando wasn't an ape, looked decent and took just a few minutes of screen time.
Maybe they also used Django Fett for the next batch.
I think the more pertinent question is why the chocolate face is dressed in the armor of a storm trooper and why storm troopers still exist. If the Republic had control I doubt they would dress their troops in the armor of a storm trooper
he'll be the first to die, so get a grip, bitch.
::)

I am guessing that the droid head on the rolling beach ball is the new Jar Jar. I am already seething with hatred at the cuteness and marketability of it.
The Empire was not destroyed at the end of Return of the Jedi and probably still control a large chunk of territory.
The stormtroopers are conscripts from imperial territory.
I wonder who leads them. Also, my theory is the new evil Jedi is actually a woman disguising her voice.
Looks like the Sith have returned, so that a possibility.
And yes, that deep voice did sound suspect.
Some tit I've never heard of (Adam Driver?) is rumored to be the villain as well.
Max Von Sydow is in it (villain from Minority Report, also King Osric from Conan, bodybuilding related :D). He's 85 years old and I'm not sure what role he would be playing in a Star Wars movie other than a Sith Lord, although he kind of looks like Alec Guinness so maybe he's playing Obi-Wan's force ghost.

That didn't bother me. There's always been an element of that in the all films, but they went way over the top with it in Episode 1, even outside Jar-Jar (C3PO battle scenes were cringe worthy).
I just think those making the film are well aware of the mistakes of the prequels, and will make sure they don't repeat them.
There's a theory going around the Twitter-verse that JJ Abrams put elements of that trailer in to get audiences to hate it so he could convince his Disney masters to kill it. The roller-droid being a prime example.
kill what ??? The release of star wars ???
there is no way in hell this movie could suck more then episodes 1-3
i really liked the JJ Abrams Star Trek films and i am not even a star trek fan
Just another green screen adventure, shot on location at the local green screen studio. Cant wait to watch another big "budget" film with big name actors in a green screen cartoon landscape as the back drop.

No no, kill the stupid elements of the script. If the world had been exposed to the idiocy of JarJar Binks before the movie opened, Ep1 would have been an order of magnitude better.I'll never get the jar jar hatred.
And don't get me started on the fucking Ewoks.

OF all the shit floating around in those 3 movies he was bar far the mildest.
both anakins were fucking horrid.
The majority of the cast was as dry as 80 year old's snatch.
Who gives a shit about new Star Wars movies?

Kill it? Principle photography has to be more than 50% completed by now. The original cast members were scheduled to spend 6 months in Europe (England mostly) shooting it. Even if it sucks, they will not kill it... too much money and time already spent.
Yes, but final edits aren't done.
I think what vox means is jj is trying to get star wars fans to protest and have disney kill the childish shit that this movie has so it wont be ruined like episodes 1-3

Disney already screwed up the cartoon.
I still liked parts of those movies. I thought the Darth Maul scenes in 1 were pretty epic, enjoyed McGreggor's Obi Wan, and I did like episode 3.
What I HATED in Episode 1was Anakin destroying the ship. If he's who he is, he should have done it with more purpose and less accidental shit.
The logic that Disney came up with is, the core characters don't die unlike the Clone Wars. ::)
You won't be seeing this type of grit in Rebels.

i only watched the original trilogy as a kid, haven't revisited but enjoyed them at the time. The prequel trilogy looked absolute shit, everytime i caught a bit on tv or whatever i couldn't get past the terrible cgi. This new trailer is no different, cgi is awful. Atleast the miniatures in the originals looked real because they were actually there. I don't know why they can't combine the two today for a much more authentic look. Most of that trailer looked fake as hell, really there is nothing exciting in that teaser and people are wetting their pants.The original trilogy still kicks asses today, when something is that well made, it would stand the test of time... The atmosphere, characters and music are still awesome... As always, completely agree about the rest, miniatures destroys CGI, period...

J.J. Abrams is a talentless douche.Agree. Never seen a movie of his that was remotely good. Star Treks were awful. A group of awful actors with awful lines. Completely predictable. Pretty much the prototypical "average" director for today (which means not very good).

maybe luke had him wear the Strom Trooper outfit get sensitive intel ???

Are all storm troopers clones?
Aren't there any enlisted soldiers. Maybe officers?
Of course the bulk of your grunts might be clones but I think one would
like to pick his officers more carefully?
I watched few of those clone wars cartoon but don't really remember how it went.
BTW: Saw a LEGO Starship Destroyer at store. +9000pieces, 4feet 2 inches long...
Need to write for Santa :)

Will go see.Me, too. And it's not because of the movie; it's because I want to (again) feel and young and full of wonderment when I saw the first one. Tall order. ::)

This is the little video that Vanity Fair put up on their website.
A few people have put it up on YouTube.
For some reason, I can't embed it.

It's only a minute long.
Here's the Comic-Con Reel from this past weekend. 8)
It seems to confirm many of the rumors about the film in general.
Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens Official Comic-Con 2015 Reel
i just hope this guy lasts longer then darth Maul
Any new trailers come out?
Looking forward to seeing the movie on premier night...
Finn has Luke's saber because Rey (his niece) is repulsed by it. The pirate (and possible former Jedi padawan) Maz Kanata (Lupita Nyong'o) tells Leia to let Finn hold it knowing that it will "find its way back to Rey" when she is ready to accept her destiny.
That is why Finn (John Boyega) is being seen on the teaser poster and toy ads with the blue lightsaber. He holds it for most of the film.
Rey supposedly grabs it after Kylo puts him down. Hurts him, and may maim him, but Finn doesn't die. 8)
Wanna her the voices of Finn, Kylo Ren and Captain Phasma? 8) :o

"We go back to Jakku we die"
"Stay low and put up the shields"

I can't get over how silly the Kylo Ren lightsaber looks.
What kind of alien is Kylo Ren?
Zabrak like Darth Maul , human or something else?

Thanks, and what kind of alien is Finn? Gamorrean?

I can't get over how silly the Kylo Ren lightsaber looks.
Finn is a human. He is a stormtrooper who wants to defect from The First Order. This is what the remains of the Galactic Empire is now called.
Supposedly, he builds it himself with little knowledge.
He is not a Sith. Nor is he the apprentice of a Sith. He is a member of the Knights of Ren. Apparently, it is a group of individuals who worship Darth Vader and want to restore the Galactic Empire.
He is the son of Han Solo and Leia Skywalker. Also, he is the nephew of Luke Skywalker.
Its Clearly Anakin Skywalker's Lightsaber given to Luke skywalker by Obi-Wan Kenobi in a new hope , and which Luke lost when his hand was chopped of by vader in Bespin fight , Looks like the black kid found it when the hatched open an luke fell to the antenna
So what your saying is Kylo Ren's Grandfather is Darth Vader
Yes, I know about the lightsaber. No, Finn does not find it.
The lightsaber is the McGuffin of the film. It lands on the desert planet Jakku. It passes through the hands of a few people until it ends up in the hands of the Vicar (Max von Sydow). He knows what it is. He contacts the Resistance led by Leia. The Resistance is a splinter group of The New Republic that is more militant. The New Republic is led by Mon Mothma.
Leia sends X-Wing pilot Poe Dameron (Oscar Issacs), to retrieve the lightsaber. The First Order intercepts the transmission to the Resistance. Kylo Ren wants his uncle's/grandfather's lightsaber for reasons that are still unknown. Dameron hides the lightsaber in his droid, BB-8, and sends it off into the desert. Dameron is captured by The First Order but freed by Finn in exchange for taking Finn with him so he can defect. Finn is not a pilot. He needs Dameron to escape. Dameron and Finn steal a Tie Fighter which you can see in the second teaser trailer.
I can give you guys the entire synopsis of the film if you want it, but I just wish one could put things in spoiler tags on this board.
Supposedly, he builds it himself with little knowledge.Really? So he has no Sith-powers at all?
He is not a Sith. Nor is he the apprentice of a Sith. He is a member of the Knights of Ren. Apparently, it is a group of individuals who worship Darth Vader and want to restore the Galactic Empire.

The Son ofMichael JordanMagic Johnson is definatly a Gamorrean.

Wasn't there a Knight of Ren in NWA? Mc Ren or something....

He is Force sensitive. It's just that he is not a Sith Lord. Abrams has officially said so. But he appears to want to be.
It's just that he is self-taught.
He has no Sith Master.
It seems Supreme Leader Snoke is not a Sith Lord either.
But Kylo definitely has the power. He is working to develop it.
Remember, the prophecy stated that Anakin was to bring balance to the Force by destroying the Sith. Vader returns to being Anakin. He then kills Palpatine to save his son Luke. That's it. The Sith are gone.
If Kasdan and Abrams brought back the Sith, well, it would be an insult to everything the previous movies set out to accomplish.

Due to Anakins bloodline being strong yes? But how come Leia never had any powers?
Will Mc Ren be able to shoot lightning, use telekinesis and such?

The Teaser Poster.
Anonymous 10/14/15 (Wed) 18:42:53 No.61770388 Perfect timing, as I have actually seen Monday night's trailer. I work at ESPN. Expect leaks very soon as it's going around. I leaked the original trailer description to Making Star Wars, so expect to see this same description on his site within a few hours. I've only seen it once. Began with a voice over talking about Vader and Palpatine. Don't remember the exact dialogue but pretty sure it's Kylo talking about finishing what they started. Talks about unison, order, ending the "chaotic void" they left. Pretty straightforward. Starfield for the entire voice over, about ten seconds? Then, the basic "This December" "from the writer of ESB" (Lawrence Kasdan) title cards Finn and Poe in a small room, arguing over who is going to fly a ship. Finn is helmet-less, unlocking Poe's handcuffs. Frantic tone, but cut with scenes of Kylo and the stromtroopers at night, using flamethrowers. Leia and a group of Rebels around a hologram of a planet. Basic military jargon, she mentions "she has experience with this sort of thing." Admiral Ackbar is present. The blue droid from the toy line is in the background. Shot of C-3PO and R2-D2. Finn and Rey getting shot at by stormtroopers, run up the ramp of the Millennium Falcon. A few shots of Captain Phasma, General Hux, Kylo Ren, and other no name Imperials looking at holograms. Captain Phasma talks, saying she'll "find and kill him." Someone responds, which narrates the next shot. I think he says something about making a big deal out of one man, or whatever. Clearly, they are talking about Finn going AWOL. Next is supposed to be some sort of surprise reveal, as the camera slowly pans back as the Millennium Falcon powers up. Single shot, from them running up the ramp to the Falcon taking off. Maybe thirty seconds total. Really cool. Lots of explosions and pot shots at the Falcon. More shots of the Falcon in the desert, Finn on the guns, Rey in the chair. "Funny" shot of BB-8 rolling up and down the hallways as the Falcon flies around. Extended shots of the Super Star Destroyer chase from the second teaser. Rey, Finn, BB-8 and Han in a hangar type area. Comedic type dialogue, back and forth between all the characters. Broken up by Chewie's roar, and some blaster fire. Everyone immediately splits off and takes cover. Supposed to be comical. Argument continues as they fire on the guys shooting at them. Don't remember anything that was said I think this is when there was another title card, or it might have been before they met Han but it said "comes the sequel to the original Star Wars trilogy" Really nice shots of TIE fighters above a jungle, firing into the woods. Probably the same scene as the X-Wings above the lake in the teasers. It looks like the same weather. Captain Phasma and Kylo ren walking out of a first Order shuttle. Ren blocks a laser from hitting Phasma. Quick shots of Phasma pushing past Stormtroopers taking cover behind trees. Her gun is automatic, she fires it indiscriminately into a group. Does not take cover as they fire back. Shots of Rey and BB-8, similar to the instagram preview watching the battle. Run in the woods. Snow scenes, a new snow speeder, walker, TIEs, patrolling a large building in the snow. Starkiller Base? General Hux voiceover about ending the wait. Strormtroopers running down a hallway and exiting out to a snowfield. Shot of the black X-Wing flying through space. TIEs and X-Wings dog fight. This is that frantic part of the trailer when things are just thrown at the screen. Definitely remember seeing Leia again, the droids, more of Phasma, more of Ren in the woods, flametroopers, etc. Lots of shots in this part. Trailer ends with Ren and Finn in the woods, red lightsaber on. Ren does a fancy move swinging the saber back and forth, reminding me immediately of the scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark with the swordsman, but in a good way if you catch my meaning. Shot of Finn responding by simply turning his lightsaber on. Title cards, new logos, etc. The last shot is an X-Wing flying through an exploding TIE. No Luke anywhere.

I've learned since 1999 not to hype up these movies. I'm going in with low expectations....especial ly after I saw Tracy Morgan has a lightsaber in this one.
Same here. Saw the original over 50x in 1977-78. Phantom Menace was beyond bad. This one has some potential, but I refuse to buy into hype. The Hebrew character seems like a force fit... no pun intended. Few more months and we'll see. I'm taking all my direct reports to the matinee on Dec 18th... they're all Star Wars fans.
Then they push in the Hebrew and a bunch of Jews. Disney bullshit at its best.

That's a cool move on your behalf.
I am buying into the hype. But only because the hype just validates how I've felt after seeing each trailer. In other words, I'm not influenced by it.
I don't mind hebrews, but I still can't get over the fact that of all the blacks they've chosen the one with neanderthal cranium. :-\
LOL... Regal, AMC, iPic, Arclight, Fandango, and movietickets.com are all down right now from traffic...
Lot of nerds out there.

Part of the magic of the first film is Darth Vader. This villain who you're supposed to hate but end up wanting to be. The introduction of some bad ass characters and animals, talking robots etc... It was a fantasy gone wild movie. Also at the time space exploration was relatively new so seeing other planets, space fights etc... opened up the imagination.If the original Star Wars was never made until 2015 and released people would be laughing at it compared to that dumb Mars or Intersellar movie but the timing was perfect for when it came out. The empire strikes back took it up a notch. Not too many movies at the time had the bad guys winning from start to finish. People kept waiting for the moment that the good guys would have their comeback but it never came. It left people speechless and couple that with the big revelation it was a big WTF! mind blown moment. Jedi was a piece of shit but it followed the success of two great films. The entire Ewok sequence needs to be removed from the movie. I just can't see JJ Abrams capturing a lot of those magical moments. It might end up being a great film but a year from now no one will be talking about it or quoting shit from it. Knowing Disney, they'll insert some of that kitchy humor they put in the Avengers.

Unfortunately, I think you hit the nail on the head.
With this new trilogy: It is assumed that Luke will be introduced at the end of this film, but I believe that the BIG CLIMAX of the next film (#8) will be his death at the hands of his son/nephew, Kylo Ren (speculation). Movie #8 will have a dark ending just like Empire Strikes Back.
The only way this can lead to a sequel that has people waiting and wondering will be if the "good guy" is never really clear and the bad guys dominate the whole movie making you wonder what the hell is going on. If its a movie about good guys teaming up to beat the bad guy and he loses at the end no one will care to see a second movie.
The director for 8 did good movies in the past like Brick and Looper , as well as what is considered the best episode of Breaking Bad, and possibly all TV, Ozmandias.
They're off to a good start.
The fact I have no fucking clue what Brick and Looper is just goes to show that this is targeted at the generation facebook nothingness crowd.
No, it means you didn't see any good, non blockbuster type movies.
Brick and Looper are blockbuster? are you 16 years old?
Wonder how much of this is true:
Remember, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Luke... Luke... do not... do not underestimate the powers of the Emperor or suffer your father's fate you will. Luke, when gone am I... the last of the Jedi will you be. Luke, the Force runs strong in your family. Pass on what you have learned, Luke. There is... another... Sky... walker.
Ohhh. Great warrior. Wars not make one great.
Feel the force!
Always two there are, a master and an apprentice.
So who will be the two bad guys? Seems a sith lord cannot exist without his apprentice and visa versa. Is the new girl the daughter of Leia and Han Solo? How would the Hebrew get Jedi skillz if the skywalkers are the last remaining?
"There has been an awakening... have you felt it?"
Who knows how the Force works, but it has been 30 years since. The Hebrew could have been born a force sensitive

New girl's weapon is perfectly parallel to Kylo Ren's lightsaber.....she might be the one they're trying to sway.
Maybe's there's not two yet.....this might just be the start of it - trying not to read anything.
Exactly. Palpatine was killed, Vader died and the death star was blown up, but the empire spanned the galaxy.
The little cute girl who is the big hero. Fucking lame shit. made for kids movie and promoting the female agenda and interracial cuckolding.
Jedis create their own lightsabers I believe , so the fact she has one meant she must have some jedi skill in her to build one.
Palpatine wasn't actually killed, well just that clone was. The emperor cloned himself.

She doesn't - but her weapon is in sync with his - has to be foreshadowing.....check out poster:

Is this EU material? If so it ain't canon no mo.
Although technically we didn't see the Palpatine die in Jedi.
I would've loudly protested that before TCW since, y'know, Darth Maul was cut in HALF and somehow survived. (Aside: I liked Maul well enough, but he should've been dead and stayed that way.) But since TCW is "canon" and all that ... meh.
My whining on that note aside, yeah, we didn't actually see Palps die. I'm all but certain he did. After he fell down that chasm, the weird blue whistling-type thingies that surged back up was, at least in my four-year-old opinion at the movies, his "spirit" or essence in the Force giving out a last, good-and-pissed "ooga booga!" before he completely left the material world.
As far as Palps clones go, and even if we ignored the so-called new canon policy, I don't think the Emperor ever took on a cloned body until the "Dark Empire" series. I definitely don't think he ever assumed a clone before "ROTJ." Assuming he did, why did he look so fucking old, then? :)
Don't believe Kylo Ren is a Sith. I believe there's a new group called the Order of Ren (force users).
I think he's more self taught and an admirer of Vader. He built his own lightsaber and he's a force user so he's definitely a threat.
There's speculation he was taught by Luke who "went to the dark side", but I don't buy it.
I'm wondering if the black dude will have some family ties to Mace Windu making him a potential force user (Jedi material).
The chick Rey and Kylo will probably end up being brother-sister Solo twins of Han and Leia
Different speculation I've read and opinions I've formed.
Personally I don't want a Dark Luke Skywalker.....I want him to be a master Jedi now. He's had decades to speak with Yoda, Obi and Anakin via the force. They could've trained him up slowly for decades into a super-master Jedi....the last and only of his kind to establish a new Jedi Order to fight against the Order of Ren. Again, total speculation.

So I've been trying to avoid spoilers about this movie but with all the recent threats of boycotts I broke down and watched the trailer.

Wow, lol.
I'm not going to boycott it because of Tracy Morgan or whatever his name is being the lightsaber wielding protagonist of the film. I'm not thrilled with that, but the reason I'm going to boycott it because it looks terrible. Seriously, it looks like they really screwed the pooch on this one. I've only seen two minutes of it, but I flat out guarantee this movie sucks. I feel sorry for the morons that are looking forward to it, hoping against hope that it will be good like Episodes IV and V. Sorry but they fucked you again. Save yourself the pain and embarrassment now and abort your opening night plans. Wait till this one hits the Redbox.
Disney did not create this film to be great, to win Oscars or to stimulate the imaginations of people. It is a cash grab. They fucked it up when they wanted to please the feminazis with a female lead, they fucked it up by forcing in the black guy to please the Al Sharptons, they added in the little roller ball droid to make it cute and sell shit. Just want to know how the little roller ball goes up stairs. This movie is going to be nothing more than a 2 hour commercial for toys, products and bullshit liberal agenda.pretty much.

It makes me laugh when a male director makes claims that he wanted a "Strong Female Lead". Seriously, what fucking straight man would say that? Obviously he was told to include it but wants it to sound like it was his intent.
Don't believe Kylo Ren is a Sith. I believe there's a new group called the Order of Ren (force users).
I think he's more self taught and an admirer of Vader. He built his own lightsaber and he's a force user so he's definitely a threat.
How can you be a force-user without being Sith or Jedi?
Can Christians wield the force as well?
I have faith. Abrahms is well aware of the shortcomings of the prequels and is not going to make the same mistake.
Isn't he only doing this one movie and another director is on tap for episode 8 and 9?
The director for 8 did good movies in the past like Brick and Looper , as well as what is considered the best episode of Breaking Bad, and possibly all TV, Ozmandias.
They're off to a good start.
So the hebrew fella does he have powers of the force of is he just using that light saber recklessly?
I liked Star Wars better when the only black guy was that no good swindler Lando. It was more realistic. lol.
Yes, BD Williams was credible in his role as Lando, as Lando was a swindler, looter and thief :D
STAR WARS
Episode VII: The Force Awakens
(Compiled Synopsis)
The opening crawl. An X-Wing Fighter approaches a planet. The planet is named Jakku. The X-Wing pilot, Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac), has been sent to retrieve a mysterious object. The object is a lightsaber, the weapon of a Jedi Knight. But this is no ordinary lightsaber. This is the blade that once belonged to Anakin Skywalker. It is the one passed down to his son, Luke Skywalker, and thought lost in Cloud City on the planet Bespin. What is unknown is how the ancient weapon found its way to this seemingly barren world. The lightsaber is retrieved by a mysterious hand and eventually finds its way to a village elder (Max Von Sydow). The elder contacted the Resistance, a splinter group that is an offshoot of the New Republic. It is led by General Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher). Dameron arrives with his droid, BB-8, to collect it. He is given the lightsaber by the old man. Suddenly, the sounds of ships are heard in the night. The First Order, the remaining forces of the Galactic Empire, have arrived in orbit above Jakku. Poe Dameron realizes that the old man’s transmission to the Resistance must have been intercepted. Quickly, he places the lightsaber inside BB-8, ordering the droid to flee into the desert. Meanwhile, a young stormtrooper is on a First Order transport ship, headed for the planet surface. This stormtrooper is Finn (John Boyega). He is with a number of other troops. The ship lands, the hatch opens, and the squad quickly flows out. The troopers surround the small village. Dameron is now trapped. There is no way to get to his X-Wing Fighter. It is rumored to be set ablaze.
A First Order shuttle lands on the planet surface. A masked, hooded figure in robes emerges from the vessel. This is Kylo Ren (Adam Driver). This dark figure confronts the old man about the lightsaber, demanding that he be given the weapon. He is unsatisfied with the conversation and the answers that he is getting. He kills the old man in cold blood. Ren orders the head stormtrooper to have her troops burn down the village. The woman is Captain Phasma (Gwendoline Christie). She appears to be a stormtrooper wearing advanced metallic armor that is adorned with a cape. She gives the order and chaos begins. The stormtroopers and flametroopers begin destroying the village and essentially slaughtering its inhabitants. Finn and a fellow stormtrooper appear reluctant to fire on what they see as innocent and defenseless individuals. This is not what they signed up for. The two fire at unsuspecting targets, but they miss – intentionally. It seems that Captain Phasma observes this occurrence. It appears there are disloyal soldiers serving under her leadership. Finn's stormtrooper friend is either shot by a villager and slowly dies, or he is killed by Kylo Ren for disloyalty on the hanger bay of the Star Destroyer. Meanwhile, Poe Dameron is captured by the stormtroopers. He is taken aboard a First Order transport, and flown back to their Star Destroyer in orbit. The young stormtrooper Finn is very disturbed by his experience on Jakku. Upon returning to the Star Destroyer, he feels ill and vomits.
A young woman stands in the desert on the planet Jakku. This is Rey (Daisy Ridley). She flies her speeder across the sands, approaching a great ruin. It is a crashed Star Destroyer from a titanic battle between the Empire and the Rebellion some thirty years earlier. Rey enters the giant craft and explore it, expertly hopping over huge chasms – some of which house the remains of old TIE fighters. She is a scavenger on a planet that was once uninhabited, but is now populated by opportunists scavenging the wreckage of war. Rey is something of a skilled gymnast, jumping from precipice to precipice in the Star Destroyer’s great husk. She scavenges a bit, and then decides to return home. In a rather evocative shot, she flies her speeder toward a one sun sunset. On The First Order Star Destroyer in orbit above Jakku, Kylo Ren is torturing Poe Dameron for information. He is confident that he will get what he wants. He emerges from the interrogation knowing that the lightsaber is now being carried inside the droid BB-8. Kylo Ren delivers this information to General Hux (Domhnall Gleeson).
The stormtrooper Finn, fearing death (or worse), decides to flee. The problem is that he can’t operate a spaceship. He needs a pilot. He sees Poe Dameron being escorted to the brig, and decides to act. He breaks the man free. They steal a TIE fighter from the hangar bay. It lifts away from its moorings, firing at troopers as it makes its way into outer space. Other TIE fighters follow, closing behind them. After a short chase, Finn and Poe are shot down over Jakku. Poe is rendered unconscious, but Finn manages to eject himself from the craft. He comes to on the desert ground. He looks around in a panic, seeing the crashed TIE fighter. He tries to get into it, but can’t. Finn sheds his stormtrooper armor, putting on a jacket that seems to be Dameron’s. It’s not clear what has happened to Poe. Finn, now disguised as a Resistance pilot, heads away from the wreckage. A speeder zooms by him, blasting sand. Finn follows it, hoping that it will lead him to the nearest settlement on this barren planet. Aboard the Star Destroyer, Kylo Ren and General Hux study Finn’s hologram. General Hux orders Captain Phasma to hunt down the droid and retrieve the lightsaber. The Captain is told to forget about Finn, but the trooper may have her own ideas about how to deal with the defector.
Rey eats alone, in a rough, makeshift dwelling built in the belly of an old Imperial AT-AT. She hears a commotion outside, and finds that a small droid is in some trouble. She helps the droid, who turns out to be BB-8. Deciding to sell BB-8 at the salvage station, she heads off with the rest of her loot. After some haggling, she changes her mind and decides to keep the little droid. On her way home, Rey is confronted by some ruffians. Finn enters the settlement and sees that she is in trouble. Rey doesn’t believe that Finn is a Resistance pilot. She doesn’t trust his intentions, but there are bigger problems at the moment. The ruffians may be in the employ of The First Order with a mission to find the droid. The three make a run for it. TIE fighters scream overhead, firing down at them. They look for a ship, and ultimately choose one. It’s the Millennium Falcon.
Rey and Finn board the Falcon, getting it off the ground. Rey flies expertly as Finn settles in at the guns. A number of TIE fighters are in pursuit. Rey shouts at Finn to return fire. She flies the Falcon back towards the crashed Star Destroyer. In order to throw the enemy off their back, she flies directly into the Star Destroyer via its rear boosters. The ships slalom through the old leviathan skillfully. But Rey knows this place well, and she soon leaves her pursuers behind. The Millennium Falcon jets off into space. Onboard the orbiting Star Destroyer, Kylo Ren is alone in his quarters. He receives news of the failed retrieval of the lightsaber. He appears to begin speaking to himself, but he is actually talking to something. It is the twisted and burned husk of a mask and helmet. It is the mask and helmet once worn by Darth Vader.
Back on the Millennium Falcon, Rey and Finn, either by tractor beam or their own choice, are picked up by a large freighter in space. The Falcon lands in a hangar bay. At the bottom of the ramp stand Han Solo and Chewbacca. Han orders the two kids off his ship, but they refuse. Han and Chewie enter the ship, confronting Rey and Finn. Suddenly, an alert pops up. Two competing gangs of ruffians approach the freighter, wishing to board it. Han asks the kids to hide in the storage bay. The gangs confront Han and Chewie, and they seem to be in trouble. Rey tries to help by releasing the ship’s cargo (which appears to be giant pigs). This provides a distraction. However, one of the creatures goes for Finn. Rey chases it down, freeing Finn from the beast’s clutches. A fight ensues between the two groups. Rey takes them on almost single-handedly, using her skills with a staff. However, Chewie is wounded in the fight. Finn helps the wookiee, getting some respect from Han Solo in the process. They rush back into the Millennium Falcon. Han gets behind the controls, and Rey is in the copilot seat. When the Falcon won’t start, Rey manages to tinker with it, fixing the ship. This earns some kudos from Captain Solo. As Chewie recovers in the back, they jet out of the freighter, crashing into some of the livestock on the way out.
Finn attends to Chewie’s wounds. As the young man chats with the wookiee, he spots the spherical remote Luke Skywalker trained with back on the journey to Alderaan. Finn fiddles with it for a few moments, and after appearing disinterested, he puts it away. Han asks Rey and Finn what the devil they were up to back there on Jakku. BB-8 determines that the time is right, and reveals the item it is carrying. It is a lightsaber. Han Solo quickly recognizes it as belonging to Luke Skywalker. Solo suggests that they need to go to see Maz Kanata (Lupita Nyong'o). She’ll know what to do. Kanata is living on Takodana, a lush green planet. As they arrive, Rey is awed by the immense jungle, a sight she has never seen in her life. As Chewie and Finn power down the ship, Han has a private chat with Rey. He gives her his trusty blaster - the DL-44. They arrive at Maz Kanata’s castle. It is a pirate hideout.
There are a range of strange and unsavory characters, alien and human, lounging about inside. Han asks for Maz Kanata. While they wait, Rey gets into a bar fight. Finn comes to her aid, and then Chewie takes care of the adversary. He may rip an arm off. Han thanks Finn for his bravery. An alien escorts them into a catacomb below the pirate castle. There they meet the diminutive and wise pirate alien, Maz Kanata. They show her the lightsaber and she immediately recognizes it. She wishes to show them a vision. Maz seemingly has force powers of some kind, and may have once been a Jedi or a Jedi padawan of Luke Skywalker. They all hold hands, and a vision begins washing over them.
The vision begins with what looks to be a Jedi Academy or Temple. Dead bodies of padawans litter the ground. Luke Skywalker shows up, but he is too late. He sits by a funeral pyre with R2-D2. The Jedi Master bids farewell to his astro droid. R2-D2 is saddened by his master’s departure. A new image now of a hand that takes the lightsaber. It is revealed to be the hand of someone called Naka. Naka starts a fire after accidently activating the blade. Another new image appears of a local trader making a sale to a wealthy man. Suddenly, the image of a fierce battle! The lightsaber is being used by the Clan against The Seven? The last man is down and Kylo Ren seems to approach Rey in the vision. The Seven are looting and we see Maz Kanata in the foreground taking an object and the vision ends.
Maz Kanata says something very serious to Han, Rey and Finn. It is possible that Rey may learn something of her heritage here that upsets her. Maz presents the blue lightsaber back to them. Rey is revolted by it. Finn is attracted to it, taking it in his hands. Maz knows why the weapon came to her. Rey is deeply troubled, rejecting both the lightsaber and the information Maz has given. She flees the pirate castle, running into the nearby jungle. Nearby, there seems to be a spy in the pirate castle. This is Kor Sella (Maisie Richardson-Sellers), an emissary that has been sent by General Leia Skywalker, the leader of the Resistance. Sella has been tasked with tracking down the lightsaber like Poe Dameron before her. BB-8 finds Rey in the jungle. Suddenly, First Order ships are in the skies overhead. On the Star Destroyer, Kylo Ren is speaking with a mysterious superior named Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis). He orders that The First Order superweapon be fired at the castle. The Supreme Leader suggests to Kylo Ren that he "not get sentimental," when Ren appears to hesitate. This suggests that Kylo Ren may have some relationship with Han Solo, Rey, or perhaps both. Ren does order the pirate castle destroyed, but the heroes, including Maz Kanata, get out in time. However, Leia’s emissary is killed in the explosion. There is another rumor that Sella is still in a Resistance ship in orbit when she dies from the blast, never actually making it to Maz Kanata's castle.
Enemy fighters are flying overhead and landing. A Resistance group arrives. Poe Dameron is with them, having gotten off Jakku and back to the Resistance. A large battle takes place. Rey is captured by The First Order, but Dameron and the Resistance fighters succeed in driving off The First Order. A Resistance shuttle lands, and it is General Leia with C-3PO in tow. She meets with Han, and the meeting is awkward. It appears that they haven’t seen each other in some time. They are estranged. Han, Chewie, Finn, Poe and BB-8 go with Leia to the Resistance Base, which may be on Yavin IV. Leia plies Finn for information about The First Order – likely probing for weaknesses. She learns something very valuable from Finn, who discloses the location of the enemy base known as Starkiller. This puts Leia’s plans into motion to assault Starkiller Base and the superweapon they have there. She expresses pride in a new Resistance superweapon, deciding to use it against the enemy stronghold. The Resistance begins preparing for the assault, including Poe and another squadron leader named Gorwyn. Leia meets with Maz Kanata and receives Luke’s blue lightsaber. Maz suggests that, for the time being at least, the lightsaber should go to Finn. Maz knows if it is in Finn’s hands, it will find its way back to Rey. Only then she will be ready to accept her destiny. Han meets with Leia, and they seem to have a close, intimate scene together. Before leaving, Han tells Leia that he will "hurry back."
On a snowy forest planet, Rey is being interrogated by Kylo Ren in The First Order’s Starkiller base. Kylo uses his force powers on her during the interrogation. Rey seems to reverse his probe, learning something about Ren in the process. Rey informs Kylo he will never be as powerful as Darth Vader. This infuriates Ren, and he leaves the chamber. Was this a family duel? Siblings? The interrogation was not fruitless for Kylo Ren as he learns that he no longer needs the lightsaber. His overall plan remains mysterious, but it may have something to do with finding Luke Skywalker. He reports this new information to the Supreme Leader Snoke. Meanwhile, Rey uses her Force powers, likely mind tricks, to distract the snowtroopers guarding her cell. She escapes through a ventilation shaft, gets outside, and takes off through the snow. Han, Chewie and Finn leave for The First Order planet. The Resistance prepares to assault the base from space. After quickly taking the Millennium Falcon into the planet’s atmosphere to jump past The First Order defenses in orbit, Han flies right through some trees before setting down. The Millennium Falcon takes some damage. Han Solo hasn’t had a good day.
As they make their way to The First Order base on foot, Finn talks about his past to Han, revealing a lot about himself. He speaks of his life before he was a stormtrooper, and the reasons why he became one. In the distance, they spot a figure. It is Rey. She is clearly moved by their arrival. As someone who has learned to rely only on herself, having them come back for her means a lot. This makes her reconsider her angry feelings at Maz Kanata’s. Rey seems to have learned vital information during her capture. Armed with this information, the group pushes on to for Starkiller base. Han has come up with a plan. They will destroy the superweapon (or the shield that protects it), which is controlled from within the base. Kylo Ren, now outside searching for Rey, walks into the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon. He sits in the pilot’s seat, seeming to have an emotional moment. Is this his father’s ship? Does he remember it? Are those memories fond?
The Resistance fleet arrives in orbit of The First Order's planet. A great, climatic space battle above the snowy, forest planet begins. The Resistance is throwing everything it has at the enemy. X-Wings and TIE fighters face off in space and in the atmosphere of the planet. General Leia Skywalker uses the Resistance superweapon to crush through Star Destroyers as if they were tinker toys. Down on the planet, General Hux of The First Order orders the firing of the weapon, attempting to take out all the fighters in space around the planet. General Hux’s subordinates question his orders, knowing the weapon will also destroy their own ships. The General fires the weapon himself. In that moment, nearly all the ships in space are destroyed. The man is practical and coldhearted. He obliterates his own pilots in their TIE fighters in order to take out the attacking Resistance fleet, securing the safety of The First Order’s superweapon.
Leia’s own superweapon appears to be destroyed. It falls into the atmosphere of the planet, breaking apart. At this moment, General Leia feels all is lost. She calls for a total retreat of Resistance forces. Meanwhile, Han Solo and his team witness the destruction from the surface. They know now they have to take matters into their own hands. Poe Dameron, BB-8 and his X-Wing squadron have survived the attack by the weapon. It appears that they were low enough in the planet’s atmosphere to evade it. Dameron spots Han Solo's team on the planet’s surface. Han, Chewie, Rey and Finn approach Starkiller base. The security codes Finn had have been changed and he feels defeated. Han Solo encourages Finn to take the lightsaber and use it to destroy a generator of some kind (likely a shield) for the superweapon. Finn heads off, dispatching some stormtroopers with the lightsaber. Han and the others begin placing explosive charges around the base.
Kylo Ren arrives to confront the heroes. The gang is on the ramparts, and they are cornered. There is no way out. Han Solo decides to confront Kylo Ren. Rey, Finn and Chewbacca stop in their tracks. They watch as Han Solo speaks to Kylo Ren, who is most likely his son. Han may try to reason with him. Suddenly, Kylo Ren silences the conversation forever. He murders Han in cold blood with his lightsaber. Leia senses Han’s death through the force. Chewbacca lets out a barrage of angry roars and fires his crossbow at Ren. At that point, things start to collapse and explode around them, presumably as the charges do their job. They are forced to flee, leaving Han’s body behind. It seems that the explosions take out whatever shield may have been protecting the superweapon. This allows Poe Dameron, BB-8 and their X-Wing squadron to swoop in and destroy the superweapon. General Hux watches in horror as it all collapses. He checks in with Supreme Leader Snoke, telling him that all is lost. In the resulting destruction, General Hux is killed.
Kylo Ren pursues the heroes into the forest. It is night and it is snowing. Finn stops to face him. Finn confronts Kylo Ren, but he is quickly bested by Kylo’s superior skill. Finn is on the ground, hurt and maybe maimed. Rey picks up the lightsaber, which she has been reluctant to accept up until this point. To save her friend and avenge Han Solo’s death, she takes the weapon and attacks Kylo Ren - her brother. She is able to hold off the warrior, matching him. Chewbacca arrives with the Millennium Falcon. After collecting Rey and Finn, the wookiee jets the Millennium Falcon off and into space. The First Order has been defeated, for now, but Kylo Ren and Supreme Leader Snoke plot their next move.
Rey, Finn, Chewie, Poe and BB-8 all return to the Resistance base on Yavin IV. The tragic loss of Han Solo makes the celebration bittersweet. General Leia informs Poe Dameron that his squadron is all that survived the assault. Rey says her goodbyes, making a special stop to see Finn in the medical bay. Meanwhile, BB-8, R2-D2 and C-3PO decode a puzzle of some kind, revealing Luke Skywalker’s location. Leia is elated that her long-lost brother has been found. She suggests that Rey be the first to greet him since his self imposed exile. Leia and Rey have a special goodbye in which she bids Rey "a fond farewell." Chewbacca playfully messes up Rey’s hair in an endearing gesture. Rey, BB-8 and Chewbacca take off in the Millennium Falcon. The ship lands on a planet with a rocky island in the middle of a sea. Rey walks up a set of old stone steps carved into the mountain. She comes up to a hooded figure seated in a chair. She places the lightsaber in the man’s hand. It is Luke Skywalker.
The End
I didn't want to put this up the last few months because you can't put spoiler tags on posts here at GetBig. :(
But some of you are so off that I'd rather do this that respond to individual posts and go crazy.WARNING: This is 90% on target. Guaranteed. This is the movie. Don't Read it if you don't want to be fully spoiled!!!
I'm going to spread it over two posts.
If truly is the movie it sounds like utter shit
What are you against, the lack of Luke in the film? ???
The PC-way indeed
Negro Jedi of Peace :D ;D
Neither Rey nor Finn are Jedi in this film.
Also, Kylo and Snoke are not Sith.
This was confirmed by Abrams.
why would they hire "the raid" people to do the action scenes? so anyone can pick up a saber now and do maul moves?
the in-between movies should be old republic stories. i don't need a back story on boba, solo and stealing death star plans.

I have several friends that will see it...Several times. Still for me, it looks more like the Farce Awakens.
A long, long time ago...Disney went PC.
Walt is spinning in his (I know its an urban legend) cryogenic chamber. ;D
Abrams is doing this one, it'll be probably be amazing. Looking forward, and I checked out as a kid (after Jedi).
What's Disney got to do with Star Wars, btw? I'm outta the loop. Lucas himself fucked up the last three, JJ can only make things better. Imagine Star Trek fans'd probably agree.
Harrison Ford was on Jimmy Kimmel last night and said the movie is amazing and fans absolutely will not be disappointed:
May just be contractual obligations to not shit on the movie but that hasn't stopped him before. I have high hopes for this one.
He bumped his head during that plane crash apparently...
;D
He's always been a weird interview, his whole career every interview/panel/etc. I've seen with him is like this where he just seems really introverted and uncomfortable. Not sure if it's an act or if he just really hates doing this kind of stuff.
With all the hype and questions about Luke Skywalker in recent weeks (reference to his absence in marketing materials...I know we heard his voice and saw his mech hand on R2 and have seen pics of his costume) and the response from JJ, cast and other insiders has been....."it'll be awesome...wait and see" doesn't jive with his representation in what you've put forth in the plot synposis. Rey walking up to a seated Luke in the final seconds of the movie to hand him his old saber.....that isn't "awesome" or "wait and see" worthy LOL.
Fans want Luke the Master Jedi....the best of the best (maybe ever) to come forth and display all the power and knowledge he's acquired. JJ knows this. The dude's almost 50. He's a Star Wars fan and has been shaped by this mythos. Further he knocked Star Trek outta the frickin park (well, I think he did LOL). I fully believe that Luke is the climax of this film and 10 seconds of him seated is anti-climatic to say the very least.
That said, I'm doubting the authenticity of the plot synopsis.
x2
I'm suspecting they're pulling something like with Empire Strikes Back where it was a huge secret unknown by essentially everyone until the film premiered.
For the big reveal there ("No. I, am your father" :o :o :o), it was not in the script or any of that shit. They had the guy physically playing Vader say something like "No, Obi-Wan was your father" during filming, so even the cast/crew who were actually there had no idea about it ahead of time. The only people who knew ahead of time were George Lucas, Irvin Kershner (director), James Earl Jones (voice of Vader / guy who actually said the line), and Mark Hamill (Luke S), who only found out moments before the scene was filmed.
Dude, exactly!!! You're reading my mind!!
Empire was AWESOME!!
Yes. Harder to pull something off like that today what with the prevalence of "social media" (::)) but my hopes are high.
Dude, exactly!!! You're reading my mind!!
Empire was AWESOME!!
J.J. is trying to save the SW franchise from the prequel disaster (although I loved elements of the prequels LOL). Handing a seated Luke a saber in the final seconds.....
The title, the force awakens is leading to a reveal of Luke either taking over the role of Darth or being the next yoda. Basically he's the only remaining person with the use of the force and Leia has it dormant and doesn't realize she also has it. Waking it up is like opening Pandora's box, waking up the force will also have the potential to wake up the dark side. It's a way to reboot the Franchise.
Disney paid $4 billion for Lucas Arts and are estimated to make $2-3 billion in merchandise sales alone this year. Pretty insane how fast they're looking to recoup their money.
I heard luke appears the last 15 to 30 minutes of the movie...
And that han solo does not die as you have stated..

I don't have any info on the Netflix series.
Rogue One is supposedly getting a script polish by writer Christopher McQuarrie.
He is good. He won the Oscar for best screenplay for The Usual Suspects.
Yep, he's the man who gave us Keyser Söze. 8)
He also wrote what I consider the best X-Men movie, X2:X-Men United. And he wrote the good Wolverine movie. The second one where he went to Japan that was loosely based on the limited 82 series by Claremont and Miller.
He is good, but I don't know if I like the idea of Disney changing the history of how the Rebellion got the Death Star plans.
Also, this is prime Empire time. How can you have a movie about this subject and not see Vader, Palpatine, and the Death Star's biggest cheerleader Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin?
You could have someone else wear the Vader suit, but you'd need Ian McDiarmid and Peter Cushing is long dead. ???
Oh, and don't forget James Earl Jones' voice. ;)
(http://i64.tinypic.com/5owif6.jpg)
I promise you that is not the case.
Han is definitely going to die at the hands of his son Kylo.
Luke is hardly in the film.
The only big question left is whether Rey is the daughter of Han and Leia, or the daughter of Luke.
I think she is Han and Leia's kid ... and the younger sister of Kylo.
Some believe she is Luke's daughter.
But Kasdan is a talented (and smart) guy.
I think he knows that a trilogy of brother vs. sister is far more interesting than cousin vs. cousin... or worse, stranger vs. stranger.

There was talk for years that FOX was going to have a live action Star Wars TV show but the budget was the issue, but now that Disney bought it, the show is probably dead or will air on ABC.
Loved the Holiday special
This was the first time Boba Fett was introduced.
Used to promote Empire Strikes Back.
Apparently Lucas Arts ordered to have the film destroyed but some copies existed. Could be an old wives tale but they weren't happy they made this.
The "Special" was envisioned by a handful of executives from Fox (1977/78) as a way to further push STAR WARS onto the movie-going public. The company was gearing up for the film's first re-release and they wanted as much attention as they could muster.
He, like Fox 77/78, saw it as simply a quick tool to generate more interest in the re-release of STAR WARS. He did provide notes to the production company contracted to produce the show, on what the special SHOULD be about, but was NOT directly involved with the live action segments of the special in any way.
One portion of the SPECIAL that DID directly involve George Lucas was the inclusion of the Boba Fett character which was originally planned as a live action segment for the SPECIAL. Early 1978, in terms of STAR WARS toys, Lucasfilm LFL and Kenner began releasing advertising on various action figure packaging for a "BRAND NEW character to be featured in the BRAND NEW film".
George Lucas saw the HOLIDAY SPECIAL as a way to indirectly introduce the character of Boba Fett to the public in a way to help push toy sales, as well as generate interest in TESB, which was already in pre-production.
Still classic that FOX didn't see future value in merchandise for Star Wars and allowed Lucas to retain the rights for it. Turned out to be a multi billion dollar mistake.
Good for George! :D
Wonder how much money Lucas has made from it. he sold Lucas Arts for $4 billion but it doesn't include the billions he's already made since the 70's.
Lucas did not make billions in the 70's, but he certainly made millions.
Life must be great when you have a childlike mind.
I thought Boba Fett was the special character figure you got from one of the cereal promotions of sending in box tops.....
At least that's what I recall.....
He was. You're correct. But I think it was that you had to send in proof of purchase from other Star Wars action figures from A New Hope.
But he first appeared on the Star Wars Holiday Special in a cartoon segment.
It actually comes with the Blu-ray box set.
Update: YouTube has it.
This poster of Rey pretty much confirms she's of Jedi descent or was trained as a Jedi.
That staff has a lightsaber built into it. Or better still, that staff is a lightsaber she'll reveal when she faces off against her brother/cousin Kylo.
I think that could be pretty sweet!
I'm finding that this Daisy Ridley chick is starting to give me serious boners.
The new poster cinches it. :o
That's pretty much fapping material. :-*
So you're excited to watch a new Star Wars focused on some british girl as the Hero? I'll leave this shit to the PC feminists.
Having a British Girl as a Hero is 1000 times better than having a Hebrew and i'm 100 % anti against movies with females/girls as a lead (unless it's pr0n).
He's really good actually in "Attack the Block", that's the only other film I'm familiar with that he's been in. Very charismatic (no homo).
In the previews so far for Star Wars though he just looks really out of place / forced in.
Hoping I'll be pleasantly surprised.
In every preview he's panting real bad and sweaty as fuck. It's like 4 different scenes and the same thing each time. Like Wiggs having to walk to work. Hahaha I mean to the 7/11.
So you're excited to watch a new Star Wars focused on some british girl as the Hero? I'll leave this shit to the PC feminists.
Strange rumor been making the rounds about Supreme Leader Snoke.
It started with an image seen at a WalMart that was supposedly quickly taken down.
The image shows what looks like an evil version of Yoda with bigger ears and carrying a red lightsaber.
Some belief this is Andy Serkis' character.
Remember, Supreme Leader Snoke is being done as a mo-cap (motion capture) CGI character.
Could it e true? Could Snoke be of Yoda's nearly extinct species?
Personally, I am against this idea.

way better fucking trailer then the one released on monday night football
Nice of Mark Hamill to dress up for the event.^^
I'll watch it just to see how much uglier Mark Hamill has become. Handsome kid in 1, even if a bit swiney. Funny lookin' in 2. By 3 - why doesn't this dude get some professional help already. Now it looks as if his pig nose is sliding right off his face. What's the deal with this guy? Why so gawd-awful looking, Mark?
Sorry. It's true.
Mark was in a major car accident in early 1977. He had major surgery on his face. If I remember correctly, he had some nerve damage.
Stupid idea if true. Just saying the name "Snoke" makes me laugh. I'm a huge fan, but I have a feeling this movie is going to be a Phantom Menace 2.
Who is this "Snoke" fellow everyone is talking about? The new Emperor? Which actor is playing him? What does he bench?
He supposedly lost a bunch of weight for the new movie, looks pretty good in this recent interview for an older guy. According to Wikipedia he's 64 years old:

Im the BIGGEST Star Wars fan! Like super huge (like my cock)......I cannot wait for this movie to come out
Glad to see your ban was lifted BMC.
Abrams now saying this is a new franchise for a new generation. So basically the chick and the Hebrew. I can see this movie making a lot of money since its nostalgic and people want to forget about the horrible episodes 1-3 but episode 8 will bomb if they continue to push this PC bullshit. The other three new characters are a black women from the comedy 12 years a slave and the tall chick from Game of thrones and some Latino guy. So the future of star wars is 3 chicks, 2 Hebrews and a spic. have fun with this PC fuck up.
You tell'em! The galaxy should be full of whites, no other race (unless it's a cute, fuzzy alien)
But is pure Disney bullshit. Turning into a movie targeted to the young effeminate teen generation nothingness.
Asthmatic Hebrew > Jar Jar Buttfuck
I did mention that 1-3 were abysmal. Darth Vader should have been a dark haired mean little kid, but making him out to be a bowl cut cute kid to that effeminate kid who played him as a teen was horrific.
Cool.
And I wanted to thank you for the Spectre script.

"Her history is that she was a pirate for a long time. She’s lived over a thousand years. She’s had this watering hole (her pirate castle) for about a century, and it’s like another bar that you’d find in a corner of the Star Wars universe." - JJ Abrams
"Her eyes have special meaning and power. I had some specific ideas about how she would work and what she would do. I had this pitch about these goggles that she wore. Her eyes are an important aspect of her character, and you’ll see how it plays out." - JJ Abrams

Harrison Ford looks old and sickly now. I hope he comes across good in the movie.
In one of the trailers Ford's character Hon Solo remarks to Chewbacca, "We're home again..."I do it every day after work, so me thinks it is possible.
You can't go home again.
Just saw the trailer while watching the parade. I may actually see this one when it comes out. Cool story bro...
Harrison Ford looks old and sickly now. I hope he comes across good in the movie.X2 He's 71 now.
Mark Hamill is now the same age as Alec Guinness when he played Old Ben, 63 yrs old
As is Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and the original Chewbacca.
No, only Luke mantles the role of Obi.
Chewbacca is not a Jedimaster.
Who cares about Ford? I'll only watch this crap if Jar Jar Binks is in it.Yes, the best character in the whole Star Wars-mythology.
Kylo is the jungle with Rey.
Yes, the best character in the whole Star Wars-mythology.jar jar was really a sith lord, and controlled everything behind the scenes, google it.
If he would have been introduced in "Umpire Strikes Back", we would all say "Boburt Fett who???".

This movie will have a huge opening weekend because of the nostalgia. It won't have many return visits and the next movie will bomb. People won't be happy that the new Luke is a chick, the new solo is a negro and the villains are all female.
This is true, especially the old Star Wars-fans will hate this :D
Myself was quite repulsed to see Dindu Solo and a female lead.
But i know the youngsters will love this shit, ie the new Star Wars-fans.
Sticky this prediction and come back to say I was right.

The old characters are in this movie as a send off but they won't be back in the next film. JJ Abrams pussified this thing to the max. Even the image of the crashed star destroyer looks too much like the graphics used in his Star Trek movie.
I'm betting on Abrams making a great movie, and the director for the next one is top notch, so it will continue.
Why isn't Abrams doing the next? He knows this will do well because of the name and knows it won't stand on its own merit to lead to a successful second film.
Money of course.
There is a saying called "Strike while the Iron is hot", and even after so many years since the first three Star Wars-movies, the Star Wars-franchise is still hot.
When the fans stop watching, that's when they stop making Star Wars-movies.
This is true, especially the old Star Wars-fans will hate this :D
Myself was quite repulsed to see Dindu Solo and a female lead. No intimidating villain either, only Kylo Ren is so-so, rest are betas.
But i know the youngsters will love this shit, ie the new generation of Star Wars-fans.
I'll watch it (but not on cinema) just for Harrison, Carrie and Mark Hamill.

Supreme Leader Snoke: Andy Serkis on the 'damaged' villain of Star Wars: The Force Awakens
While Snoke’s final appearance, as well as his motives and history, will likely be saved for the Dec. 18 movie to reveal, Serkis did provide a little background on the Supreme Leader, whose voice was heard on the very first teaser trailer nearly a year ago.
Here’s what Serkis can share about Snoke:
For one, obviously he’s not a nice guy. And he’s a long-range schemer, not an impulsive hothead type.
“Supreme Leader Snoke is quite an enigmatic character, and strangely vulnerable at the same time as being quite powerful,” Serkis says. “Obviously he has a huge agenda. He has suffered a lot of damage. As I said, there is a strange vulnerability to him, which belies his true agenda, I suppose.”
While Abrams has emphasized a return to practical effects on The Force Awakens, is Snoke perhaps a character who could have been played by Serkis in make-up?
“No, no,” the actor says. “The scale of him, for instance, is one reason. He is large. He appears tall. And also just the facial design – you couldn’t have gotten there with prosthetics. It’s too extreme. Without giving too much away at this point, he has a very distinctive, idiosyncratic bone structure and facial structure. You could never have done it [in real life.]”
If Snoke is a “damaged” character, that raises the question: Did his wounds come from the clash between the Rebellion and the Empire, seen in the original Star Wars trilogy?
Serkis hesitates here, but then says he believes Snoke was outside of that conflict.
“No, he’s a new character in this universe. It is very much a newly-introduced character,” Serkis says. “He’s aware of what’s gone on, in the respect that he has been around and is aware of prior events. I think it’d be fair to say that he is aware of the past to a great degree.”
Yeah, this is Harrison Ford's movie as far as the original cast goes.
There is a reason for this. I don't know if you know or want to know.
Leia first appears near the end of the second act.
Luke in two, maybe three scenes.
1. Flashback/vision by Maz Kanata
2. Possible hologram scene where he reveals his location
3. The final scene of the film
A lot of Luke in Episode VIII and Episode IX.
As far as Snoke, definitely no. He is not Darth Plagueis.
Abrams and Kasdan have already confirmed that neither Snoke nor Kylo are Sith.
The Sith are gone. That was the point of the prophecy of the Chosen One Anakin Skywalker.
It was Anakin's job to wipe out the Sith. The problem was that he becomes one first.
Kasdan would never screw with George's established history.
The prophecy spoke of the chosen one bringing balance to the force. A balance would be an equality of light and dark. No darkside would bring an imbalance. Anakin becoming a Sith, later being turned by Luke and then Anakin killing Sidious would mean an imbalance in the force given the darkside users are essentially wiped out. A balance would mean the rise of dark and light users....an awakening of the force.
The Knights of Ren may not be Sith, but they're force users, saber users and worshippers of the Sith.
Yes, JJ has said that about the Sith, but he's lied before to keep fans off the scent of the film (ex: Cumberbatch as Kahn in Trek)
This is incorrect. Lucas has stated unequivocally that balance means no Sith. The Sith are a corruption of the Force.
Yes, they are worshippers of the Sith and of Darth Vader in particular. Only Kylo appears to carry a lightsaber. He made it himself. It is crude, unstable. The other Knights have not been seen with actual lightsabers. The trailer shows them carrying different weapons.
Remember, Kylo has been predominately self-taught since there are no Sith Lords to educate him. The Knights follow Kylo for a specific reason. This is a major spoiler, so I don't know if you want to know.
Even though Abrams has such a history, I don't believe he is lying about Snoke not being a Sith Lord.
We'll know soon enough. :)
The more I see/hear about this movie, the less I want to see it. "Snoke"? - lol
Shortly about balance:
Vader killed the Emperor and basically Anakin in Vader killed himself.
Dark side was wiped out.
Now light side users must lay dormant or dark side awakens again.
Maybe the Skywalker kids accidentally tap into their powers and this is the awakening
that Kylo Ren and co feel?
Every commercial I see is of the young chick and the negro. The negro is in a storm trooper costume, flying a ship, shooting a gun and fighting with a light saber that apparently another storm trooper blocks with his gun. Looks like complete shit for kids.
The Negro is Finn. He is a stormtrooper who wants to defect from The First Order. This is what the remains of The Galactic Empire is now called.
The chick is Rey. She is a scavenger living on the planet Jakku. But there may be more to her past than meets the eye.
Finn is no Jedi. He has the blue lightsaber that was once the property of Anakin Skywalker.
That lightsaber was taken by Obi-wan Kenobi after their duel on Mustafar.
It was given to Anakin Skywalker's son - Luke Skywalker.
Luke Skywalker lost that lightsaber (and his right hand) in a duel with his father in Cloud City on the planet Bespin.
But now, the lightsaber has mysteriously appeared on the planet Jakku.
Passing from one individual to another, it ends up with Max von Sydow's character named Lor San Tekka. Poe Dameron, an ace X-Wing pilot and member of the Resistance under General Leia, has been sent by her to retrieve her brother's lightsaber.
This is the start of the new film.
The lightsaber is the McGuffin that drives the story forward.
Finn ends up with the lightsaber because Rey wants nothing to do with it. In fact, she is repulsed by the weapon.
Hebrew is the preferred nomenclature.
Guys,Cool. He invented it, what he says, goes.
Lucas has said that for The Force to be in balance means no Sith.
The Jedi belong. The Sith do not.
Guys,
Lucas has said that for The Force to be in balance means no Sith.
The Jedi belong. The Sith do not.
What about Hebrews
Rey is definitely the main (though reluctant) hero/heroine of the film.
But it would not surprise me if Finn ends up being Force-sensitive, and thus trains to be a Jedi in Episode VIII and Episode IX.
Rey will definitely be going through such training.
On a side note, it does suck that we have no Lando in The Force Awakens.
However, Marvel gave him his own limited series comic and he is going to be in Episode VIII.
But remember that Rogue One comes first next year.
Hebrew is the preferred nomenclature.
The brews need to be the smooth talking sidekick like Lando. Not the main hero character. Maybe like horror movies the brew will be the first to die.
Da man!

The new brew gets his arm cut off

Listen to Yamcha.
Kylo duels Finn in the forest on the planet where The First Order's Starkiller base is.
The new rumor is that the planet is Ilum.
Ilum is the planet where Jedi padawans get their lightsaber crystals.
Kylo puts Finn down.
Finn takes an injury, but no exact confirmation of what it is.
He is either stabbed, slashed, loses a hand, or loses most of an arm.
Then Rey picks up the lightsaber and duels Kylo.
Finn lives.
Rey lives.
Kylo lives.
So both Finn and Rey will be in the next movie then?

Chewbacca is there on the right holding a blue light saber. Oh wait, it's a different ape ancestor. Never mind.
Andy Serkis, the master of CGI characters from Gollum to King Kong, plays the still-unseen Supreme Leader Snoke who has scenes with Kylo Ren. "All I can say is that I'm involved in it," he has said. But Neal Scanlan, chief of creature and droid effects, told PEOPLE, "This character is much better executed as a CGI character. That's just a practical reality when he's 7-foot-something tall; he's very, very thin."

Those going to the theater should get there in time to see the trailers.Star Trek is for dorks bro
Star Trek Beyond, the next Star Trek movie, will arrive in theaters in time to commemorate the sci-fi franchise’s 50th anniversary. One year later, the property is also going to continue on the small screen, as a new Star Trek TV series is slated to debut on CBS before it’s made available through the network’s streaming service. It’s an exciting time to be a Trekkie, in other words.
Principal photography on Beyond wrapped in October of 2015; meaning at this stage, it’s reasonable to assume that enough post-production work has been completed on the film for a teaser to be ready to go in the foreseeable future. It appears that is the plan after all, as the movie’s first theatrical preview will reportedly be attached to (what else?) Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens in theaters this month.
THR is reporting that Star Trek Beyond‘s first trailer will be attached to The Force Awakens in theaters – though, of course, it’s far from the only 2016 tentpole that is expected to hitch a ride aboard the Star Wars train. Indeed, both the recently-unveiled Captain America: Civil War teaser trailer and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice‘s third theatrical preview are both likely candidates to be shown before The Force Awakens. Furthermore, it’s been reported in the past that the first X-Men: Apocalypse trailer will make its debut on the big screen with co-writer/director J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars feature, as might also be true for another 20th Century Fox project – Roland Emmerich’s alien invasion sequel, Independence Day: Resurgence.
Star Trek Beyond‘s first trailer being attached to The Force Awakens makes sense; not just because of the exposure that the former stands to gain, but also because of the shared sci-fi fanbase between the Star Trek and Star Wars franchises (the friendly rivalry amongst some of their fans aside) and the fact that Abrams is still producing Beyond, after having directed the last two Star Trek movies. The Force Awakens doesn’t need help at the box office, but having all these trailers for high-profile 2016 releases attached in theaters only heightens the film’s “event” status all the more.
Star Trek fans have good reason to be interested in getting an early look at Star Trek Beyond; beyond the obvious fact that it’s the Star Trek film that will mark the property’s 50th birthday, it’s also the first directed by Justin Lin (Fast & Furious 3-6) and co-penned by Star Trek series cast member Simon Pegg (Shaun of the Dead, The World’s End), as well as relative newcomer Doug Jung. On the one hand, fans have been encouraged to learn that this is the first Star Trek movie since the 2009 reboot to take place during the U.S.S. Enterprise’s five-year mission to explore new worlds. On the other hand, Pegg’s own indication that the script will be “less Star Trek-y” hasn’t gone over so well, by comparison.
In other words: fan anticipation for Star Trek Beyond would no doubt benefit from a teaser trailer that suggests this installment will show reverence for what earned Star Trek its following in the first place, while at the same time keeping the proceedings feeling fresh and modern. However one felt about the Abrams-directed Star Trek movies, Star Trek Beyond represents the next chapter for the series – and thus, the first impression will be one worth paying attention to. If we’re lucky, we’ll get our first proper look at Idris Elba as the film’s mysterious antagonist, too.
Star Trek Beyond opens in U.S. theaters on July 22nd, 2016.

Sadly, he does resemble Darth Plagueis.
I hope idiot Abrams isn't pulling his Lost and Star Trek: Into Darkness crap of lying when fans figure out his silly nonsense.
He lied about Lost being completely planned out and that it was going somewhere. And he outright lied about Benedict Cumberbatch not being Khan.
He is such a dick.
I've always hated that guy.
My hope for this thing is in the excellent writing of Lawrence Kasdan.
Just don't show her episode 1-3 or she'll never want to watch Star Wars again. I've been reading about Lucas being a little bitter that Disney didn't want his script or his input on the new film. I guess after his debacle on 1-3 I don't blame Disney.

In an interview, Mark Hamill said he is keeping a secret about his role in the movie , he then mentions he's good at keeping secrets and how he managed to keep the secret of him being Vader's son in Empire Strikes Back even from the rest of the cast..
I want to see a seasoned Luke Skywalker as a tremendous master Jedi. I know now that's still a couple more years away. And the Snoke Plageuis thing is unimportant.....just geek speak LOL.

Behind the scenes of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens
Star Wars: Episode VII" opens the Friday before Christmas. And that gave Bill Whitaker of "60 Minutes" a chance to talk to a man who has one of the coolest jobs in the galaxy.
Six weeks before the premiere, CBS News dropped in on a Hollywood scoring session for "The Force Awakens."
Composer John Williams, who won an Academy Award for the first "Star Wars" film, was back -- along with the iconic refrain he wrote 38 years ago.
Standing behind Williams wasn't some awestruck groupie. It was the movie's director, J.J. Abrams.
"Well, this is -- this is like momentous, you know, John Williams conducting his Star Wars music," Abrams told CBS News. "I mean, as a fan, I can't even believe I get to be here."
Abrams saw "Star Wars" when he was 11 and never outgrew his passion for the film. On this day, when he wasn't in the middle of the orchestra, filming on his phone, he was racing around the sound stage -- part fan, part director.
"We may need to make the 'bum ba da ba da' -- repeat those bars just because it might, it might be a little bit longer before we get into the interior of the transport," Abrams told Williams.
"There are moments of abject terror when we all think about what we've taken on," Abrams told Whitaker.
You can see more of Whitaker's interview with Abrams this Sunday on "60 Minutes" at 7/6c.
Supreme Leader Snoke. :o
This is it.
Forget the drawing on the previous page.

This is said to be from the art book for the film.
Star Wars: The At of The Force Awakens.
I love that it was based off the Hammer horror films.
Of course, the late great Christopher Lee used to play Count Dracula in those films. His dear friend Peter Cushing was also in a number of those films. He often played Van Helsing.
Both would later play important characters in the Star Wars Universe.
Cushing would play Grand Moff Tarkin and Lee would play Count Dooku/Darth Tyranus.

Getbiggers, please stay safe during the opening weekend.
Please do not hesitate to alert people of suspicious activity.
Let the force be with you.
Amen to that.
Hitherto, I'd not even considered the possibility that some MUSLIM ASSHOLES (up yours, POTUS, and your chickenshit euphemisms) would go and mow down a theatre full of SW goers.
Short-sighted, was I: ever since Sept. 2001, anytime I've seen a movie on the big screen, I've eyed anything unexpected with suspicion, be it an usher doing ... whatever an usher does when the film's already underway, strange noises that you could hear over the loud-assed movie, etc.
I have a bad feeling about this. But I hope I'm wrong. At least when I do see the flick about 10 days after opening day, I'm happy to say I'm going with a bunch of CCWs, including two local cops.
Weren't the two recent theater shootings done by white guys? Why doesn't America get mad at a white guy that kills 20 people but want to start WW3 if a dark person does it?
A cool little video putting together the parts of the duel between Kylo and Finn. :o 8)
Did anyone watch 60 Minutes tonight?
It was okay. No big deal.
All Abrams and his wife. ::) A little Williams and one shot of Kasdan. >:(
Jerkoffs. That show has sucked balls for years.
Anyway, they put up a video on CBS Overtime that they advertised at the end of the story.
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/60-minutes-ot-how-the-new-star-wars-begins/ (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/60-minutes-ot-how-the-new-star-wars-begins/)
It has the opening music after the Opening Crawl.
This video is far better than the story that was on the show.
Williams and some Kasdan. 8)
It was more about an Abrams jerk off session than Star Wars. He seems to be happy to leave it behind and not do another. I liked when the reporter asked him about the diversity of a black and a woman as the lead and his answer was such bullshit. Why not just say that Disney is forcing the whole female hero thing for years now and wanted to continue it.
::)
Fucking minority talking shit about blacks and women. Mental disease, hate or some kind of inferiority complex courses through you veins.

The Hollywood Premiere is going on right now.
So in other words, the Nerd Fappening is now happening?
The Nerd Fappening.
I see.
So in other words, the Nerd Fappening is now happening?
I can be as big a Nerd as any here and have a childhood friend that was in some of the original Star Wars films. I liked those movies. The next three were poo and have pretty much turned me off this newest one. My daughter said she will be seeing it and loves to tease me about it.
I find the film (on the surface) to be PC and so I will avoid it. I don't watch much TV for the same lame reasoning.
By the way, I got my turntables set up and bought some nice vinyl to play on them, including some Vince Guaraldi, Chet Baker and Coltrane and Hartman and one of my fave girl vocalists the Misty Miss Christy - June Christy.
So I got that goin' for me....Which is nice. ;D
Thanks Disney! >:(

Collider Jedi Council guys couldn't yet review the film, but all that saw it said go see it it's worth the wait.
Others have said it's on par with Empire....a w e s o m e.
You do realize those who've seen it all work for Disney Corp don't you?

I'll hold my judgment until Harry Knowles reports on how many boners/orgasms the movie gave him.
LOL, now there's an opinion that typically doesn't align with mine.
His review will be 25,000 words and 24,500 of them will be about his childhood and Star Wars collection.
Hahaha, exactly! He always does that. He'll start the review of some obscure Hungarian horror movie from the 70s with ten paragraphs on how the movie changed his life when he was a kid.
Easily excitable man.
LOL exactly!! Often times I just jump to the comments section of his reviews because I don't want to read 30 minutes about his entire collection of Taco Man comic books from '72-'74 and how they changed his life and parallel his review of The Lord of the Rings.
;D
Yeah, the comments section is where it's at. He gets slaughtered there. Can't blame them to be fair. Harry is corrupt as fuck. If he gets some little trinket from the movie studio, like a Green Lantern ring (man did he love that thing), he will write a glowing review. And he loves EVERYTHING. Never seen a shitty movie that he didn't love it seems like.
I've seen him come back to a movie years later and finally say, "yeah, in hindsight it wasn't their best effort and could've been so much more."
When the original review said, "So spaztastically giddy over the new Green Lantern I pee-pee'd my leg twice!! Wonderful adaption of the comic book and far beyond my wildest dreams. Ryan Reynolds was every bit of Hal Jordan and fully embodied my 200-figure GL collection of Hal Jordan, Kyle Rayner and John Stewart lanterns!! I'd say this movie is certainly Oscar worthy and in the same category as Apocalypse Now, Casablanca and Raging Bull!! Run out and see it 14 times in a row like I did!!"
I had some friends who got in yesterday.
I'm hearing a few things I don't like, but overall it may come close to A New Hope, but not Empire.
For those of you who are going to watch it this week don't click on reviews on CNN. Some reviewer basically wrote out the entire movie plot, spoilers and all without even giving a spoiler alert. After reading the review I feel like I saved $15.
I have read some reviews.
It's basically a remake of the first two ones. Same plot devices. Nothing you haven't seen before.
Kylo Ren is Reys father?
Finn is Landos son?
Given we're only getting a few minutes of Master Jedi Skywalker (most likely in flashback) this is what I expected.
Snoke's origins aren't revealed either from what I've read.
Not even this.
A quick flashback/Rey's vision of him touching R2-D2's dome and the very end up on a hill.
No lines.
Nope. He is never even specifically referred to as Snoke even though one of the tracks on the soundtrack is called Snoke.
It appears to be S NO CK.
However, the name is never spoken.
Supreme Leader is all that he is called.
Snoke 1 8)Are you saying these are actual images from the film?
(http://i.imgur.com/GP3Fgq8.jpg)
Snoke 2 :o
(http://i.imgur.com/Q76uQdN.jpg)
The Snoke hologram fading out. He is not at Starkiller base. Advanced technology in the last thirty years removes the blue hue. You think he is in the room until he fades out. Clever.
(http://i.imgur.com/YZmTRpT.jpg)
Yes.
This is from the film.
I have seen the actual scene. 8)
Nope.
Going tomorrow.
Some scenes and pictures have leaked out from overseas openings.
Did the film deliver as compared to the original trilogy?
Williams soundtrack awesome?
Good lightsaber stuff?
Snoke looks crazy scary!
Saw the film last night.
Some of the reviews are right...a lot of elements from the original movies.
Nevertheless, very entertaining. Would hit Rey fiercely.
That's the title he goes by.
But Abrams and Kasdan said that he is not a Sith Lord.
His story is a mystery to undoubtedly be revealed in Episode VIII and especially Episode IX.
I know people who went to the LA premiere. If there are any questions, feel free to ask.
However, I am going out to eat soon.
Actual stills.
The final scene.

Is the Hebrew a Jedi or just the comedic sidekick?
Shit, you can't post pics of Snoke like that without warning!
He's crazy scary and now i can't sleep!
Piss on this movie. it's plot is too much of a copy of episode 4 and it shamelessly panders to everybody who never gave a fuck about star wars (women and black people) to get their money too, lol
and if you wanna bitch about the main characters being a woman and a Hebrew, just remember that it could have easily been something like Jar Jar Binks
Jar Jar Binks was a Hebrew as well, Jamaican.
It was beautiful, visually.
Saw it in IMAX. It captures what was amazing about the original trilogy, visually stunning cinematography. Even with those stupid 3d glasses on...
For the way this movie was hyped up, it didn't let me down. It didn't seem to let 300+ fans in the theater down either.
Sure, the story line wasn't unique (and their were TONS of unique storylines in the EU), but it shit all over the prequels.
Highly recommend, especially if you have children. I think they would be blown away and taken to a fantastic world that we enjoyed as kids.

This movie was a disappointment. The casting was terrible. The 2 main actors could not act to save their life. And Kylo Ren was a joke. The story was slow and predictable. Hardly anyone in the audience cheered for anything. When the new death star was blown up, there was basically silence in the theatre. This told me that most people thought like myself that this was a whatever movie that we will all forget like we did with the 3 prequels. It will make a ton of money because every Star Wars fan will go see it, and most will talk about how good they thought it was. But over time, people will come back down and realize it was a piece of crap. A C movie at best. Just being honest and I went into the theatre wanting to love it :(

I've heard it's great and I've heard it's terrible.yep, it is getting great reviews. Star Wars fans are quick to let you know if the movie would suck
For me I throw out the best reviews and worst reviews immediately....these folks wrote their reviews before seeing the film.
Then I look at the nerd reviews and throw out the diehard SW fan reviews immediately....these folks are never satisfied.
I look for the reviews from the average Joes that grew up with the original films, owned some toys, pretended to be Jedis, stiill love the films today but don't dress up for comicon, read every EU novel, own 10 $250 lightsabers, etc.....when the majority of those folks said the film was good then it's probably pretty good. And so far those folks say it's pretty good.....as good as ROTJ but not quite as good as ESB.
Rarely am I let down by fans like myself. I often completely disagree with "professional critics" as well.
That said, I'm seeing the movie on Christmas and can't wait because it's STAR WARS!!!
Apparently the Star Wars-formula never grows old or out of style.
Maybe in 30 years we will have next revitalization of the franchise, but that time, the main characters will be a black transexual wheelchair-ridden vegan and an obese woman that is a blind one-legged pansexual muslim.

Tremendous hype surrounding this movie. I've heard good things from friends that saw it, but average reviews from critics. I remember the geeks/nerds loved Phantom Menace when it first came out, but that sentiment turned around quickly. It will be in theaters for the next 6 months, I'm in no rush to see it.

The movie has a 95% approval rating on rotten tomatoes from critics. That's an extremely well reviewed movie. There will always be the occasional person that it doesn't connect with.Yep, I glad they didn't go cartoony like the prequels.
Saw it today - MOS - you will love it. It was extremely well done and cast (sorry to disappoint EDB).
It mixed in the correct blend of nostalgia, humor, story and action, although they did bend a bit heavy in the direction of the old movies.
The movie definitely fits as the next chapter to the original trilogy. I thought it was great.
Didn't say thru all the end credits..

just saw it , great movie, however with all the similarities to A New Hope, this can very well be what hollywood calls "REMAKE" or "REBOOT"Adaptation or influence by
ok, at this point i guess if you read the thread your looking for spoilers so,I believe his force is weaken because he is conflicted. Rey is strong in the force with no training at all. She is maybe related to luke some how.
at the start of the movie , kylo's way with the force is so advanced he is able to stop a laser blaster in mid air, is able to draw information from peoples brains , was trained briefly by Luke Skywalker and now snoko? Yet was having a struggling to beat FIN and not only got out forced for the lightsaber by REY and then later in battle
i mean i know he was shot , but still

That bugged me too at first, but I forgot about being shot AND Rey was already seemed at expert level with the the bostick, so I got over it. Plus, I think Ren is supposed to be weak and conflicted, as it was pointed out.
yea, she was well trained in fighting with the bostick and was also trained as a pilot , some definitely took her under their wing as a child
POSSIBLE SPOILER for those who haven't seen it.
Yeah agree - something's up. Remember when she was asked how she did something and said "I don't know". Easy answer seems to be she's Luke's daughter - I she had an helmet that looked like it could be luke's in the beginning.
or it wouldnt surprise me if ol ben kenobi fucked a Tusken Raider back in his days , and she is the granddaughter of that

I know a lightsaber isn't the Mjolnir , but when a non jedi can turn it on swing it around it cheapened the lightsaber to me
also when it was not able to cut through this stormtroopers axe? also cheapened it for me

lol @ the rave reviews for this movie
it was a total fanservice / nostalgia grab
Better than the last three turds in this series.
Kylo was way too weak though. And his outfit was dorky. Like he just left a Dungeons and Dragons party.
Darth Maul was never conflicted or prone to tantrums, but then again, he was never as powerful as Vader.

Maybe i misjudged that ol Zabrak.
One Sith that was never prone to tantrums or was conflicted was Darth (Vlad Tepes) Tyranus.
One Sith that was never prone to tantrums or was conflicted was Darth (Vlad Tepes) Tyranus.
How'd that work out for him?
Do not waste money on 3D though because there are no 3D elements to the movie. IMAX in my town was showing 3D. Money gouging. Still visually stunning.
Spoilers
It good, Liked it...was solid. But...
Lots of borrowed scenes from IV and V.
Little easy trust for a stormtrooper in the beginning? A trap, hello?
DeathStar again, only bigger. Kylos fluctuating pover levels?
She seemed angry with the saber. Anger->Pain->Hate-> [ insert imperial march ]
I think it is a given shes Lukes. Anakins Lightsaber, then Lukes, now calls to her.
Darth Maul was never conflicted or prone to tantrums, but then again, he was never as powerful as Vader.
Not necessarily.
In terms of raw power with the Force, Maul could have matched Vader. In terms of harnessing the Force for subtle things like mind sway, premonition, force lightening, large scale battle and combat mediation and influence, etc... he simply could not focus the Force that narrowly due to the over whelming power of it that he possessed. He basically operated the Force like a shotgun instead of a sniper rifle like other Force masters could do.
The most powerful Sith of all time has to be Darth Marek. This dude was standing on a planet and used the Force to grab a big ass Star Destroyer that was in orbit and rip it out of the sky and bring it crashing to the planet. He even beat Vader twice and almost defeated the Emperor.
Darth Malgus was pretty damn powerful too. He led the sack on the Jedi Temple and killed dozens of Jedi Masters. He also was able to stop a ship in blast off and hold it suspended in the air despite it's turbo and thrusters going full blast. He reached the point where he no longer simply used the Force, but rather he WAS the Force. He was virtually unstoppable.
On a side note, the Sith lords of old were much more powerful than Vader or the ones today. Even more powerful than the Emperor. The current Siths are watered down and weak which is a flaw in their Rule of Two mindset. A master teaches the apprentice all he knows, but not everything the master knows. So when the apprentice finally rises up and kills the master, all the knowledge that the Master has not taught yet dies with him. The apprentice becomes the master and the cycle repeats itself. This is why the old sith lords could to unbelievable feats with the Force.
Was the rule of two something that was implemented at some point, but not always the case? Sounds like it if Marek / Vader / Emperor all existed at the same time.
Also, is the above official cannon? Even after a lot of it was "wiped"?
Started by Darth Bane.
The Darth Bane Trilogy novels are a really good, quick read if you can find them!
There are torrents of the audiobooks (with voice acting/sound effects) that are really good as well
Gotcha.
As for the Trilogy, is it official?
Not since the Disney takeover.
That's what I thought.......
Expecting "Star Wars, The Sith Years" Episodes -3,-2,-1.

He was a blunt instrument -- a "fighting animal," as Darth Tyranus said -- but I sincerely doubt he could've matched Vader in sheer Force ... uhh, ability ;) Anakin was supposed to become "more powerful than either of us," or so said Sidious of himself and Yoda, and Sidious completely and utterly p0wned Maul. Did you see that Clone Wars episode in which he effortlessly killed Oppress and bitch-slapped Maul simultaneously?
I do think that at his best, Maul would've given Vader-in-the-suit a hard time in a lightsaber duel, however.
That's very true, but all of the Force Unleashed stuff is now deemed apocryphal. Even before Disney redefined the canon/official policy, I'm pretty sure TFU was regarded as a "Legends" story. Besides, fun as that game was (I never played pt. 2), Marek beating Vader and Palps was just stupid. The kid was a total Gary Stu.
But didn't a Stormtrooper/Republic trooper precursor beat on him pretty good? I know he was fighting Jedi in the same battle, but still ...
Well, again, even before the canon policy changed, many sources explicitly stated that Palpatine was the most powerful Sith Lord, ever. His master was literally afraid when he looked at Palpatine's "aura," noting that it was so dark, Palps was basically the nexus of the Dark Side.
You do make a good point about the Rule of Two, but I also have to figure that, for all of the knowledge that might be lost in the process (though that's what Holocrons are for), new knowledge would be gained over the eons as well. Think of it as 3 steps foreward, one back (if that much).
Regardless, Disney's policy pretty much wet blankets any such discussions; as I said, the newest material reaffirms other, older sources that established Sidious' supremacy over the Revan, Bane, Nihilus, Annedus, et al.
Hate to bring the bad news, but it's fake. No rules exist. Just what an author wants to write.
Not necessarily.You do know this isn't real life, right?

Darth Malgus was pretty damn powerful too. He led the sack on the Jedi Temple and killed dozens of Jedi Masters. He also was able to stop a ship in blast off and hold it suspended in the air despite it's turbo and thrusters going full blast. He reached the point where he no longer simply used the Force, but rather he WAS the Force. He was virtually unstoppable.
On a side note, the Sith lords of old were much more powerful than Vader or the ones today. Even more powerful than the Emperor. The current Siths are watered down and weak which is a flaw in their Rule of Two mindset. A master teaches the apprentice all he knows, but not everything the master knows. So when the apprentice finally rises up and kills the master, all the knowledge that the Master has not taught yet dies with him. The apprentice becomes the master and the cycle repeats itself. This is why the old sith lords could to unbelievable feats with the Force.
You do know this isn't real life, right?
If you read the novel Darth Plagueis

Did you see that Clone Wars episode in which he effortlessly killed Oppress and bitch-slapped Maul simultaneously?
I do think that at his best, Maul would've given Vader-in-the-suit a hard time in a lightsaber duel, however.
Some real nerds in this thread...I just went and to see it last night and was happy.Did you a get a blowjob during the film?
Did you a get a blowjob during the film?Oh snap! :D
Even though the Star Wars universe isn't "real", it has it's own rules and internal logic like every other fictional universe.
Did you a get a blowjob during the film?

Just saw it.
Whatever.
Guessing you didn't get a blowjob then?only CalvinH plays prison style at the movie theater bah :D
not quite happy since the girl is a mudshark in the making
The movie has a 95% approval rating on rotten tomatoes from critics. That's an extremely well reviewed movie. There will always be the occasional person that it doesn't connect with.
Saw it today - MOS - you will love it. It was extremely well done and cast (sorry to disappoint EDB).
It mixed in the correct blend of nostalgia, humor, story and action, although they did bend a bit heavy in the direction of the old movies.
The movie definitely fits as the next chapter to the original trilogy. I thought it was great.
Just got home from seeing it. You were right. ..I loved it!
Saw it yesterday. Even with all the PC/ diversity/ feministic/ liberal crap that Disney injects into every one of it's movies, I still found it enjoyable and better than any of the prequels.
Harrison can still pull it off, but Carrie Fisher (even with the weight loss) looked bad/old from years of smoking, drugs and booze. Her voice has been greatly affected too.
When I saw the previews it seemed like the Hebrew would not fit into the story, but he was actually pretty good.
The villains were there, but nowhere near at intimidating as Vader and the Emperor were.
Don't blink or you might miss Mark Hamill.
My Star Wars nerd rating = 8/10 stars.
Saw SW7 The Force Awakens today with my boo.Anything was better then the sequels tho
Good movie, definitely ways better then any of the prequels. Still missing the beat and the feel of the originals due to mismatched scenes, music and character development.
This movie tried to reboot the Death Star super weapon and the legendary "Death Star attack run" but failed...just couldn't pull of the same feel. Episode IV had the tension, the scenery and the music in the final moments before Luke finally lit up the Death Star. This movie had none of that.....quantity over quality. More explosions, more x-wings more stormtroopers flying around but none of the authentic emotional appeal.
Somewhere around a B+ on Star Wars scale. The black dude turned out alright; as Finn put it and I am paraphrasing; "The First Order is ruthless and they will hunt us down and wipe us out. I just want to save myself and Im outa here."

Ewan McGregor reprised his role as Obi-Wan to say, “Rey … these are your first steps.” But the beginning of the phrase, the word “Rey,” is actually the voice of Alec Guinness, taken from a line when the late actor said the word “afraid.” So, Rey actually hears both the young and the old Obi-Wan encouraging her in this scene.

30 Things You Definitely Missed In “The Force Awakens”

Finally saw it. Abrams turned it it into a non stop action film. Not as much drama or storyline to it. The brew was actually good and funny. So he's basically the new Han Solo. The chick was annoying. Still no clue who she is or why she has the force. Another Death Star ? If the fucker takes an hour to charge why not just have it charged and ready to go? Snoke needs better cgi. Looks like a drawn in cartoon animation. So he's some sort of giant supreme person we've never heard of? The whole sky walker scene was horrible. Was that the storyline ? So he's now the new Yoda? Just as Yoda failed to train anakin, Luke failed to train kylo. Not sure how your u can travel light speed and slam the breaks and not snap your neck? Essentially we'll learn more about the chick, the brew will be the new rebellion leader. Luke is Yoda and kylo will complete his training to become a sith lord.
The movie was entertaining but lacked the mythology and magic the original Star Wars had. I wouldn't stop to watch this again or even think about it. Kind of forgettable.
The film was rushed. They tried to pack way too many explosions in 2 hours. The start felt like a scene from terminator. The movie needed more of a story and less things blowing up.
If this Ren is Luke's daughter....
Desolate hasn't returned to this thread since a couple days prior to the release of the film.
He was devouring and reporting on every shred of detail up to the release date.
I enjoyed the movie.
Heeb, broad, and Mexican were all good.
Wait what, there was a Mexican too?
Yes he is a pilot.
I liked the villains too except the broad in the shiny Stormtrooper suit (::)) didn't really do anything.
What's the pilots name?
Som Brero?
Siesta Tequilawalker?
A droid carries a secret and is chased by storm troopers, a Jedi who doesn't know he's a Jedi lives in a desert and escapes on the millennium f., goes to a bar where storm troopers kill everyone is taken prison but escapes with the help of solo and chewey, xwing destroys deathstar before it fires on the resistance home planet....and a dozen more scenes....
Which episode is this? 3 or 7?
The answer is 7.Sorry 4 :)
3 was nothing like what you describe.

How many Star Wars movies are Disney going to make? One main trilogy series and two spin-offs so far right? They are making money hand over fist.They can make money on Star Wars even with adding Jamaicans looking like silly ducks.
It was nothing like episode 3, but near identical to episode 4.
That you think it's similar to 3 is mindboggling.

Think about it...............Is Star Wars the biggest entertainment franchise ever? What could possibly compare?
This Star Wars has a chance to break the all-time movie revenue record. That was the best money Disney ever spent.
Have you heard about James Bond?Do you really think that the James Bond movies can compete with Star Wars, money wise?
Disney has plans to do a spin off I think before they try Episode 8. They'll make their money back form merchandise sales alone.

All Star Wars fans go on about episodes 4-6 like they are the greatest thing ever. Why not just make the same shit but updated. They're not smart enough to think outside of a plot they like and appreciate it.
Box office wise yes, James bond has made 2x more money (14 billion to 7 billion (might be 8 billion soon) but of course has 5 times more films. But where Star Wars beats them all is that they sold an estimate $17 billion in toys. Also billions in licensing to those like Lego etc...Exactly my point. I said as an "entertainment franchise", which encompasses everything.
tic Universe (MCU) films are an American series of superhero films, based on characters that appear in publications by Marvel Comics. The films have been in production since 2007, and in that time Marvel Studios has produced twelve films, with fourteen more in various stages of production. The series has collectively grossed over $9 billion at the global box office, making it the highest-grossing film franchise of all time.
Kind of odd to call it a film franchise. coupling Captain America totals with Thor totals is not really a Franchise but since they fall under Marvel they are calling all films a franchise.
They have so many Marvel movies coming out, it's pretty crazy.

Not really. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (with movie rights to Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Captain America, but not X-Men and Spider-Man) was the plan from the start (starting with Iron Man in 2008) and Marvel set up their own film production company that was later bought by Disney. These movies are all connected.
And now Spider-Man.....
Exactly my point. I said as an "entertainment franchise", which encompasses everything.Add in the James Bond books as well.
Star Wars blows everything away.
I don't know about anything that is bigger than Star Wars in terms of ticket sales and toy sales.
Maybe the Pixar movies and toys, but I don't see them as one entity like Star Wars.
Add in the James Bond books as well.
Also, may want to look at the Star Trek entertainment franchise. That goes back to the 60s, with toys, clothing, TV show, multiple movies, plus spin off shows.
I don't know about anything that is bigger than Star Wars in terms of ticket sales and toy sales.

Harry Potter has SW on ticket sales, but no sure about inflation adjusted #'s.
Harry Potter is a good shout. That shit was huge. But did they sell as much toys as Star Wars did and do?
Or Pixar?
I read that the Cars franchise alone sold like $5 billion in toys. Add in Toy Story, Shrek and all that other shit.
Liked how they threw in the interracial relationship too ::)
Retarded how Darth Plagueis is now a giant from a Disney movie Jack the Giant Slayer.
This movie sucked on so many levels...complete hype
What is wrong with that?
The only force that she should experience is that of a stoning for being a purple crayon lover. Thought they hanged those types on Alderaan.
Also, how the fuck does an untrained Hebrew nearly best a Sith Lord with a light sabre?
Affirmative action?

The chick reminds me of Keira Knightly (sp) are they related?
The first half of the movie was actually good, up until Harrison Ford showed up.
Then it got corny and awkward as shit.
They didn't use Luke properly IMO, other than saying "the force" about a hundred times nobody actually talks about it like in the other episodes
Also, how the fuck does an untrained Hebrew nearly best a Sith Lord with a light sabre?
Ren was not a Sith Lord yet, and was seriously injured.
What is wrong with that?
Mudsharking is a crime against nature, manboon

The biggest flaw with the chick character is that she had no flaws. She can fight barehand one on one. Take on 4 goons at once, use the force without training, fly all sorts of ships, knows exactly how to disarm a planet sized weapon, how to fix hyperdrives, how to use a light saber, how to read minds. I bet her shit smells like vanilla cinnamon cream.
Exactly. People rebut that saying, "the force works in mysterious ways" blah blah. Needed more story. Abrams ran through scenes too quickly.
No character development whatsoever. Movie was a jumble of scenes slopped together.
It took Luke 3 movies and being trained by a Jedi Master to learn to use the force.
This is Star Wars a la Gen Nothingness.

So Kylo Ren can stop and hold a blaster shot with the force but can't destroy a hebe with a stolen weapon?
In other words, he's not qualified to work for an American Police academy?
Also how does the chick Jedi mind trick a guard with no training at all. Only a Jedi can do that not even a padawan.
George Lucas would be pissed if he wasn't cashing cheques
Movie was enjoyable, why ruin it by overthinking and over analyzing.
Movie was great ..
Better than the prequels...
Went back to its roots..
Looking forward to episode 8
As well next year's Rogue 1 release....
Sick of hearing this shit about being better than the prequels. That's not saying much at all.
Prequel, prequel, prequel...

Imagine how good this movie would've been if Getbiggers wrote the scrip, directed it and acted in it.
Scriptwriter = Dave Czech
Director = Shizzo
Rey = Goodrum
Finn = Soulcrusher
Kylo Ren = Coach Joe Marino
Captain Phasma = Marty Champ
Hux = Tbombz
Snoke = Donny
Poe Dameron = Navy Mike (injuring his knee at the Starkiller bombingrun)
Chewbacca = Big Mike Cox
Maz Kanata = Howard
Admiral Allahu Ackbar = a_achmed
Nien Nunb = Musclecenter
BB-8 = Chaos
SNL can still put together a good one at times. It's spot on if you've seen the UC Boss show.
Is Kyle character jewish?
Aye, I just watched it a couple days ago.
I did pretty good at keeping myself from knowing too much about it because I had no fucking clue I was about to watch a remake until I was actually watching it. One thing I did know about was harrison wouldn't be around for the second movie because the dude has not a lot of love for .. anything these days so it'd be a cash grab.
I just don't get why they insisted on doing a death star rehash and having a hell of a lot weaker characters as the leads (a girl who masters the force about 5 minutes after realising she can do it), a very weak military leader and sith jedi who is bested by 5 minutes into her jedi career girl.
A lot of silly science shit that went a bit too far.. lightspeeding behind shields, a planet sucking up a star etc
It was okay and very star warsy but I'd have been down to watch a more mature trilogy about Thrawn.
I watched the Blu-Ray last week.I bought it on iTunes yesterday, started watching it, stop after 20 mins. It was better the first time at the movies.
It kind of sucked.

i never saw why people didnt like 1-3. jar jar sucked yes but other than that they were good films imo. 5 is probably my least favorite of all SW films. literally fast fwd'd thru half of it one time. 4 was perfect. 6 was alrite. SW is great but i feel like the actual films arent as good as what the universe ended up expanding into wit all the books and stuff.
I'm not saying you are "wrong", everyone's entitled to their opinion, but this is the polar opposite of what most people think of Star Wars.
It took you 20 minutes to realize this was made for 8-12 year olds.Nope. It was made for people who loved the oringals.
Episode VII, VIII and IX should have just continued in the 80's....
One may assume Lucas wanted to release I, II and III first (before VII, VIII and IX)... and he didn't feel the technology was there to make them justice back in the 80s, thus the long wait.

Imperial Royal Guard supposedly only travel with Emperor Palpatine.
And guy in hood kneels in the same manner that Vader kneels in ESB Ep. 5
The folks in Rogue One is the Team that got the blueprints for the Deathstar, enabling it's destruction in Episode 6.
So chronologically that movie is betweenep 5 and 6.ep. 3 & 4
From what I've heard, there is supposed to be an extremely gruesome scene where Vader goes apeshit and decapitates a rebel, uses his body as a human shield, and force chokes/throws bitches
None of this PC-crap, recruiting women and hebrews as Stormtroopers etc
New Star Wars movie based on the stealing of the Death Star blueprints.
There seem to be less alien species as well. :'(
In the entire fucking universe, there seem to be a lot of good-looking women with English accents.
It took me some reddit browsing before i got that it isn't part VIII, but a standalone movie and VIII scheduled for December 2017. This shit is confusing.
Will definitely watch the stand-alone movie about Boburt "Big Bobs" Fett
Would also like to see a stand-alone movie for Darth Insidious Palpatar Von Hoff
I look forward to the BigBobs Fett flick, but I'd really enjoy an Obi-Kwon Kenobi flick.
haha brings back old memories, was actually called Obi-Kwon Kenobi online back in the day when i was younger :D

So you liked to wear a hood and approach random young boys telling them how special they are?
