force awakens was cool, but I felt like it followed too closely to star wars... the original... could have been cooler... but really waiting to see episode 8....
who is the dude kylo ren bows to? (so many theories)
how did he turn to the dark side?
why did luke flee?
who is rey's parents? (soo many theories too)
just sucks we gotta wait a year or so for the next one LOL :(
- luke and leia boneddocpoz
- force eruptiondocpoz
- it followed a new hope for a good reason, because ppl hated the prequels and they needed to being it back in.CygnusZero4
- back to the familiar to then be able to properly move it forward.CygnusZero4
- dont forget, the very first star wars explained nothing. there was no emperor in it, no sith, vader was just some guy.CygnusZero4
- no one was wondering who lukes parents were. a new hope was a very simple movie.CygnusZero4
- because it was a standalone. it wasnt called episode 4. they never expected to make a sequel to it.CygnusZero4
- well that's nonsense - the opening credits said episode 4 from the start.hans_glib
- Nope, Hans. The original opening credits didn't mention 'episode 4' or even 'A New Hope'.Sep
- That was all added for the 1981 re-release.Sep
- Yep, Sepjaylarson

I think the theory that a force child is born jesus style could be true -- makes perfect sense. And perhaps Luke was going to these jedi temples to learn more about this stuff, especially his father....? /nerdthoughts
- Yeah... I'm starting to think they're doing this or adding in reincarnationdrake-von-drake
- Christensen is in the next film. Confirmeddrake-von-drake

- ^ did those guys like force awakens? i know they did those epic prequel hating youtube review vids. never saw what they thought about tfa, or rogue oneCygnusZero4
- basically, luke is yodasince1979
- I can't wait to hear him say "I am your father"!Gucci
- weak... again with those actors ... no thanks.elohelien
- teasers are now 2:12 long?Bennn
- Poster looks like fan art.DRIFTMONKEY
- i love the new characters in star wars. kylo was a little bitchy. hopefully he is more of a nasty sith in this one.CygnusZero4
- rey, finn and poe were all greatCygnusZero4
- Can't stop hearing jokers voice....pango
- zzzzPonyBoy
- Yeah, hmmmmm...no. Like Fast and the Furious, too many of them.Maaku
- Yeah, but spread over 40 years, not several years. Plus Star Wars isn't absolute shit.CyBrainX
- it's all about the spin offs now - they killed this trilogy with the v.average kids movie Force Awakens.fadein11
- funny, the current Furious film is currently getting great reviewssince1979
- currentsince1979
- theyre all kids moviesCygnusZero4
- Yeah I found this to be underwhelmingcannonball1978
- Whatever! I'm watching it.sea_sea
- I will be watching... yep all kids movies but the saga has a ling history of kids and adults enjoying together. force awakens was 100% a disney version of SW.fadein11
- yeah, its for adults too obviously, but they were made for 12 year olds first and foremost, like lucas said yesterday at celebrationCygnusZero4
- so aspects of them are supposed to be ridiculous. corny puppets n shitCygnusZero4
- I know that - I'm a big fan. I love that element - Force Awakens felt like a parody. Rogue One didn't. And this latest trailer is v.dull. But that may be a goodfadein11
- sign. At least I won't build myself up this time and then leave the cinema gutted.fadein11
- Im glad kylo loses the mask. he's better as adam driversofakingback
- I'm an adult and have enjoyed the new SW films. Also nice teaser trailer - gave away nothing!inteliboy
- Congratulations on enjoying the worst SW movie since The Phantom Menace.fadein11
- sci fi fairytales for children, i hate star warsdrgs
- grumpy fuckersinteliboy
- opinions that differ = grumpiness - congrats on your ridiculous outlook on things.fadein11
- Luke is pissed!futurefood

Kind of what I expected in this. Luke is angry, reluctant at the start of the movie. Wants this to all to just go away, wants to be left alone to die in peace, isnt welcoming of Rey. But im sure by the end of the movie his story arc will have him opening up and wanting to help, so in 9 he is back to full Luke hero mode.
- and then diepango
- maybe, maybe notCygnusZero4
- ha yes, diedigitdaily
- Luke must die! To fulfill the last Jedi statement.pango
- he said on Twitter he doesn't... or did he? he will be back as a ghost regardless like Han in this one.fadein11
- Die die die die!pango
- I"m not so sure about the dying part. Is Yoda the only one who gets to lie a long time? (I still think 5 movies weren't enough though)CyBrainX
- R2d2 and c3po lived even longer.pango
- the call of the darkside is too strong, he must die in the end.ApeRobot
- DIEEEE!!!!pango

Rey has to be a Skywalker. George did the original outline for 7, 8 and 9, and before force awakens came out, he did some little Q&A thing with JJ, and he asked JJ, "So what happens to Darth Vaders grandchildren?", and JJ said, "I dont know George, you tell me."
The whole thing is a family story, so I would be VERY surprised if they change that and make her a Kenobi relative or something. I think the idea is that her and Kylo are related, so that is going to play into the drama over the next 2 movies, and I would imagine he'll find redemption at the end, like Vader did.
- I think thats why when Kylo found out a girl is involved, he went nuts and force choked that guy and said, "What girl?!" Its obvious he knew who she was.CygnusZero4
- 3/10... gonna take a lot for me to get excited by these kids movies after Rogue One.fadein11

luke the bad guy

Does it look a bit like editing booth floor throwaway footage from previous instalment to you too or is it just me?
I don't remember to have been this unimpressed with the two other Disney SW flick teasers.
- yep - was strangely dull for a SW trailer.fadein11
- maybe because they don't want to show too much?sofakingback
- the shit craft spraying the ground reminded me of the dreaded pod race. Ugh.fadein11
- The pod race was one of the best parts of the prequelsCygnusZero4
- It was diabolicalfadein11
- It was fun and unique. Nothing like it in any other movie ever made. And for 1998 when they made that, that cgi was fucking stellar. It STILL looks good.CygnusZero4
- 'Fun and unique'? The sounds was ace, I'll give you that.detritus

Saw it, i thought it was pretty good, not as good as rogue one, but the most impressive thing was the character CGI other than snoke, but he was pretty damn good too, way better than last time.
They're 99.0% there i'd say, way better than any other human CGI in a movie.
The last piece of the puzzle I think is small human ticks and quirks that make us alive, little emotions and expressions. they just seem like they're on sedatives...slightly but very slightly off.
- I am getting v.mediocre reports... had tickets for midnight 1st showing but had to cancel last minute...fadein11
- I was entertainedpablo28
- Tarkin looked good in rogue one but you can still tell its fake. Just missing the natural subtle human facial movements.CygnusZero4
- And dont mention names in this movie yet. Most people havent seen it. Idk who you are talking about in 8 and dont want to know. Seeing it tomorrow.CygnusZero4
- Then stay out of the thread until you do. Easy. Your responsibility to avoid spoilers, not ours.ETM
- Tarkin was terrible.inteliboy

will have to watch it again, may have been a little too blazed.. felt a bit too formulaic .. like it was predictable when the next space battle was going to happen etc..
also purple haired commander woman is way more annoying than Jar Jar.. only redeeming feature was she flew her ship into that other one..
lots of good things, but also, too many naff bits and terrible attempts at catch phrases..
- Purple hair commander was Laura Dern. You really found her that annoying?CyBrainX
- She's epic! One of Hollywood's greatestmugwart
