New Star Wars TFA footage

Hah. People do that, I guess?

I'm not busting your balls about it, I'm just warning people who are going into that article.

Apologies if it seemed like I was annoyed or something. Was just explaining why I didn't provide the warning you did. I shoulda thanked you first. Kind of a shitty oversight, actually, considering what day it is.

So anyway: Thanks for warning people, and sorry I missed it.

Every other property, by the time we get to T-minus 30 days to launch and the TV spots are fast and furious, people stop fussing about new footage.

Not Star Wars.

My 'uhh' combined with an exclamation / question seemed like I was saying "pay attention" but it was an "I don't know if I should be presenting this as spoilers?" combined with "SPOILERS!" Ha. Oh well. Cheers.

The article was cool. I forgot to mention that too. :)

I left out that the Dark Side of the Force resurrected the Rancor. It makes perfect sense.

It's like poetry.

Seriously though, I hope this trilogy gives us good creature moments. I love seeing things like rancors, the giant worm slug thing, sarlacc pit. Maybe we can get ourselves a Krayt Dragon this time? ;)

This is going to look amazing for 3D people. I will use the force to imagine how awesome 3D looks like. Some of the stuff already look like it's popping off of the screen with how they shot it. The smoke trails in the ship and the sabre.

Who did they change the color of the sky in this shot? Previous versions of this shot had a normal cloudy sky.

Just guessing here: They all turn around to face the sky, the super weapon test fires, General Hux snickers. The audience of troopers applauds.
 
I found the Civil War trailer more exciting than anything SW related thus far. I really want to be hyped by this film, but I just can't. I'm sure it'll be good but not feeling excited at all.

Na, I liked the Civil War trailer. It's no Star Wars but I'm looking forward to it.

One of the few good things (for me) about 3D is that 2D screenings are cheaper and less busy.

I just don't enjoy it and have a harder time detecting (being fooled by?) than most. Also can't see those Magic Eye puzzles ever. Although it's getting more convincing. Avatar spores and Hobbit actually delivered convincing moments for me.

Always been that way or after you got your eyes lasered ?

Only watched the Avengers in 3D. It was a while ago but wasn't impressed, just looked a bit dark and I couldn't help taking my glasses off every few minutes to see which scenes that didn't involve sparks or a pointy thing were 3D.

Never seen those magic puzzles ever either. A secret test, are we the chosen ones.

I don't know...nothing I've seen so far got me excited for the movie. Looks really mediocre to me. Hopefully JJ will prove me wrong.

Just keep your expectations in check. This will not be pure nostalgia awesomeness like you remember. But it should be fun.

Quick question as I've been staying spoiler free.

So The Empire is still kicking around?

This is what I remember from the magazine articles and JJ interviews:
We don't really know. We know that the enemy is The First Order and we know the Republic isn't 100% formed - the Rebellion exists still and is The Resistance now, who are not in power. I think it's safe to say we're in the middle of a new galactic civil war and both sides are likely made up of survivors from the last one, but we don't know yet.

Wow, it's a Schooner.

Really can't wait for this movie. Just a few more weeks and we still haven't seen most of the movie even though it feels like we've seen alot. I can't wait to see how things play out and how the characters relationship evolves over time.

also shoutouts to Finn apparently losing that 1v1 with a Stromtrooper and needin ol' Han to bail him out

to be fair, he did just get a lightsaber. Might need a little work with it.

How did I never notice that the red line is actually a giant laser slowly passing by the window before?

Both those laser scenes probably take place together. Kylo's sitting in the bridge of a ship while they are watching the test fire from the surface
