Star Wars: Episode VII

[SpiderNitro]

Was anyone immediately pumped up for the movie after seeing the trailer? I sure was! The effects we have today that were used in the new trailer were incredible and made me want to see the movie even more!

[Pulagatha]

That was A good trailer.

[Mathachew Veteran]

Way more excited from that trailer than the teaser, but that flaming lightsaber...

You were probably blown away by the special effects in the prequels as well. I really wouldn't judge it on pretty graphics.

I hope it turns out to be good

Man.. I just loooove being late to a party. everyone has already eaten all the food! 

[SpiderNitro]

Well, I did like seeing Han solo again. All I hope is for the story to be really good.

Weird with Luke saying "My Father HAS it" not had aka dead. I wonder if we'll see Anakin at some point or just his force ghost.

 

ALSO HAN AND CHEWY.

[gameboy1977]

I like new Star Wars trailer!

[sinetheo]

 

That looks like Darth Raven BIG TIME

Weird with Luke saying "My Father HAS it" not had aka dead.

I noticed that too. Clearly it wasn't an accident, so I guess the guy is not dead

 

So sweet  seeing Han and Chewy again!

[Rappy Veteran]

This looks really really good!

Are you positive the person speaking is Luke? 

[TDT]

Are you positive the narrator is Luke? 

I thought about this too, but they showed Vader's mask while he was saying "my father has it", so it seemed logical to be Luke...

IDK.  The mask looks really strange for one.  Now if Luke's son was talking then the father reference would be Luke and the person he is talking to would be Luke's grandson? And the sister reference is a granddaughter?  Don't know if the time line allows for this.

Actually this makes more sense. Since the story is set about 30 years from the events in RotJ, it seems plausible.

Holy Hell!!!! I came... that is all.

[benthebear]

I'm loving the new ship designs and the new Stormtroopers.

 

I'll spoiler tag this, but it looks like the Stormtroopers now fight for

the First Order and the Rebels are now the Resistance

correct me if I'm wrong but according to the book series, Luke is supposed to be or become evil in this installment.

I thought they made all the books non cannon as far as the movies are concerned? I'm pretty sure I remember reading that around here at some point.

[Razorwing]

Still can't believe BB-8 is a practical effect. Amazing.

that's exactly what bums me out. like the jason bourne books were about carlos the jackal, why do they have to diverge? 

Question:

 

since the emporer and vader are dead, the empire is dead.. or is it?

[Ironman273]

Actually this makes more sense. Since the story is set about 30 years from the events in RotJ, it seems plausible.

But isn't that the same speech (with small changes) that Luke told Leia after the Battle of Endor?

I'll take your word for it, I have no idea about that   I'm not THAT big of a SW fan... But if it is what you're saying, what does it mean?
