NFT: Star Wars Trailer Day!

Britt in VA : 11/28/2014 8:30 am
I know as a 38 year old grown man, I should not be this excited for a movie trailer, but I am!

Anybody got some info on when it's going to hit the net today?

And obviously have the same Star Wars fascination. Watched Episode 4 with my little dude already today waiting for the trailer to hit. I really hope they don't butcher this one like they did with the prequels.
Less than 10 min!

Really? 10 minutes?

Didn't show much, but I guess it's a teaser. THE FALCON!
I think it confirmed

It's a teaser trailer.

Don't expect much.
I like the look of the baddie...  
Britt in VA : 11/28/2014 10:42 am : link
and his voice.

My 3 year old jumped at the beginning when that Stormtrooper without his helmet popped up!
AND....

no lens flares.

that black storm trooper is rumored to be the main hero in the film who becomes a jedi.
Not a huge Star wars fan  
JayBinQueens : 11/28/2014 10:48 am : link
is this supposed to take place after the original trilogy?
It has potential...

to be bad, but damn if the Falcon didn't give me chills. I am all in.
Loved the shot of the x-wings skimming the lake.

That gave away so little  
Jay on the Island : 11/28/2014 10:52 am : link
but it was still awesome to see the Falcon in action. I just pray Abrams doesn't butcher this movie but at least it can't be as bad as the prequels.

I thought the Storm Troopers were all clones of Janga Fett ?

I honestly dont care if the movie sucks  
Eli Wilson : 11/28/2014 11:08 am : link
It cannot be worse than episode 1. I was 6 when the original movie came out and am pumped for more Star Wars. I'll be there with my kids opening night.

What a geek.

No chills for me.

Once the emperor had complete control, it was open enrollment for anyone to join the storm trooper academy.
It moved

Scrooge.
Just the possibilities has me excited...  
Britt in VA : 11/28/2014 11:23 am : link
even though we didn't see them, I'm just imagining Luke existing somewhere there on Tatooine.

If the art that has been leaked is correct, is the Sith Lord/Inquisitor on Endor looking for "something"? Is that Endor in the snow?

Just imagining Han and Chewie in that Falcon taking on those tie fighters...

Yeah man, I'm psyched.

I'm talking about what was in the trailer, and other than one thing which I could have spoiled but instead replaced with "something", I don't think I spoiled anything.
That Sith  
Nick in LA : 11/28/2014 11:57 am : link
lightsaber was awesome.
The main reason for optimism with this film  
Jay on the Island : 11/28/2014 12:08 pm : link
is that Abrams is using way less CGI and going more with real sets like they did in the original trilogy.

+1. I hated Episode 1-3 so bad I blocked them out of the franchise like I did with the 2nd and 3rd Matrix movies. Haydn Christensen was godawful. Lucas really shit the bed on them.
Yup  
UConn4523 : 11/28/2014 1:04 pm : link
this is going to be awesome!
I did love the Rolly Droid  
Ben in Tampa : 11/28/2014 1:38 pm : link
Gave me such a nostalgic Star Wars buzz.

To piggyback on what others have said, JJ Abrams used a ton of practical effects vs CGI for the sets.

I am approaching this trailer thoughtfully, objectively. Looks like some real crap.
The JJ hate is always overblown  
UConn4523 : 11/28/2014 2:45 pm : link
the guy makes compelling movies and is a very good director and creater of worlds/concepts. He's going to kill this project and I mean that in a good way.

How can anyone say its great or crap from 88 seconds? It looks like....star wars.

And UConn, I agree with what you say about JJ. It seems to be the in thing nowadays to put his filmmaking down.

Ryan in Albany : 11/28/2014 2:53 pm : link

God, that reeked of JJ Abrams. Look for massive plot holes and unbelievable coincidences.

His "Star Trek" movie was ruined for me when Kirk was marooned on a planet, ran into a cave and Spock just happened to be in that particular cave on that particular spot on that particularly huge fucking PLANET.
Yeah this sucks  
UConn4523 : 11/28/2014 2:57 pm : link
So glad that 80 seconds will keep me from wasting my money.

Not liking something ou know something about is 1 thing, but how you can deduce that trailer down to the movie looking terrible is beyond me. Makes no sense.

It "reeked" of JJ Abrams yet had like 0 lens flares. It also didn't divulge a single note about the plot, so how is it that you've already decided it will have massive plot holes and unbelievable coincidences?

Christ, way to really view the trailer from a thoughtful, objective perspective. Doesn't sound like you have any bias against JJ Abrams whatsoever.

Yet, you'll still get in line and pay 15 bucks to see it
And enrich Hollywood? Yeah, no.  
Ryan in Albany : 11/28/2014 3:08 pm : link
But, according to reports, this SW episode is supposed to take place SW VI +30 years; that saber and hand that fell from Luke when Vader cut it off? That is found, and they go on a mission to return it to the owner, or some such.

THIN-ASS plot, yes. But it's JJ, what do you expect? War and Peace?

I also read spoilers on the internet, doesn't mean that they're true.

Again just anti-JJ Abrams bias. Not very thoughtful or objective.
I love Abram's movies...  
Dan in the Springs : 11/28/2014 3:47 pm : link
And I can't understand anyone who accepted the original Star Wars movies with its accompanying plot holes that now rejects the possibility of similar films with plot holes. It's movie-going fun, entertainment, not art. Try to be less of a film critic and more like a young child, you know the one who just enjoyed the story and didn't worry too much about plot holes or the overuse of cinematic effects. It's much more fun that way
They had me at the X-Wings skirting the water//
