[SALTIRE]

Musn't look, still haven't seen the second trailer yet - I'm doing well, but still 7 months of this to go!!!

 

[This Charming Mike]

 

[The Southbank]

Still no reveal of the character Andy Serkis will be playing, which is a shame.

 

[silkyman]

And...

Three teaser trailers to tease the last trailer...

Which is going a bit far. Probably. But still...

All that excitement. Over a trailer.

My top wishes in life:

1. Win Premium Bonds.
2. Achieve most Likes on 1FF.
3. New Star Wars film is absolutely awful and loads of 35 year old men cry about it forever.
4. World peace.

 

[G.B]

in that order?

I'm a joyless person who wants other people to suffer, because I hate fun, and any form of entertainment that other people might enjoy.

FTFY

 

[Pagnell]

I don't know, it would be kinda funny if it turned out to be shit. I'd be disappointed if it was of course, like most blokes. But there are some sad cnuts out there who'd literally be inconsolable with grief in a 12 year old girl One Direction have just split kind of way.

 

[silkyman]

Meh. The franchise did that 16 years ago.

 

[Pagnell]

Indeed. Which would make it happening again all the more disheartening!

 

[SALTIRE]

I'd rather see a Star Wars movie every year, even a kack one, than suffer through the endless Marvel ones that seem to come out once a month.

 

[Pagnell]

Personally, I'd sooner watch Highlander 2 on infinite repeat than another Phantom Menace.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

FTFY

Yes, my life is joyless. Because I've got shingles. So thanks alot.

Nothing wrong with Highlander 2 if you take it as a stand alone film! Phantom wasn't the wost of the prequels, Clones was far far worse.

 

[Pagnell]

Highlander 2 is abortion.

 

[SALTIRE]

Highlander 2 is abortion.

I thought it was mad and fun, its definitely not the worst of the series of films - Endgame was atrocious!

 

[silkyman]

As a standalone scifi, Highlander 2 was an ok actioner of its era. The big shame is that it simply shits all over the absolutely excellent first one.

It is mildly interesting that the ecological disaster that required a cure which was worse than the disease was the ozone layer, rather than global warming.

The third was truly atrocious. But you've got to love Mario Van Peebles for having the worst action villain actor name in history.

 

[Craig]

Trailer just aired at HT in the Giants-Eagles game...I saw it....

 

[JJ1532]

Man, don't think I've gotten that excited over a trailer before. Only issue is, I'd be amazed if it lived up to the hype. Got such a high bar to reach, we've seen plenty of movies try and fail.

Spoiler

few details emerge from the plot and reading up on wiki mind. I'm almost certain that Max von Sydow is going to play the ghost of Anakin Skywalker. Rey is clearly Leia and Han's daughter. Interesting to see that Andy Serkis is playing the Palpatine figure in this. But obviously his character will be motion captured, so he isn't human. I also think that the character Lupita Nyong'o plays will be pretty important in someway. Still no clue as to what role Luke will be playing in the film.

Typical JJ Abrams really, teases but leaves plenty of juicy bits out. Really looking forward to it though, can't wait for it to come out.

 

[spireite]

Nerdgasm.

 

[Pagnell]

I watched the trailer, and strangely found it less exciting than the other ones. I've always found trailers more enjoyable when they leave more to the imagination, there is nothing worse than watching a film then realising all the best bits were shown in the three minute trailer you saw two months before. I think this one perhaps gave a little too much away.

 

[silkyman]

Hmm.... So 'boycottstarwarsvii' is a thing again...

Made the mistake of clicking on that link and fell deep into the Twitter racism rabbit hole.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Saw the trailer earlier and It didnt dissapoit!

It clearly showed that Ray is Han/Leias daughter and a main caharacter while not giving too much more away!

Tickets booked at Imax for 1201 AM on the 17th!! Cant Fucking wait!

[Craig]

He's booked a week off work because of a film release. Tell him he's a sad c*** from me.

 

[Craig]

He has a Star Wars backpack and R2-D2 headphones, I think he's already aware.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Seriously?

Yep.
