The Choc Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I don't at all mind the lightsaber being the key to start the plot and bring everyone together. I don't like the idea of it floating through space and landing. I'm hoping that rumor is half true and maybe the saber has been like floating around the black market for quite a while prior to this.

The Choc Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Actually what Driver just said about it being cargo on a ship and then falling from t he debris of said ship makes a ton of sense based on other rumors that have I've read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RelentlessMalice Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I was teaching class and went to check my school email and a colleague seny me an email saying hey checkout the new trailer. So everything in class stopped. All learning stopped. I went over to my presentation computer and projected on my smartboard and showed the trailer to the whole class and at the end they all cheered! It was awesome. Also did you notice the new imperial logo? The Vader helmet shot was the best piece hands down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Choc Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I actually loved the shot of Boyega reaching for (probably Ridley's) hand. He has this look of kinda surprise. Kinda like he's been fighting this war full of cruelty and it's all he's known for so long and now some random person is actually trying to help him.

Lucas1138 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Did anyone watch the livestream with with the trailer premiered? It was full of ALL KINDS of awesome. Maybe the coolest (aside from the trailer, obv) thing was the practical BB8 unit that they brought out. I mean, that is absolutely damn incredible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuskenRaider Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 There are a million ways that they could mess this movie up completely. After watching this trailer I am finally convinced that they aren't going to screw it up. I can't think of any higher praise than that. The only thing better than how this trailer looked was how good Daisy Ridley looked at Celebration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RelentlessMalice Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Just looked at a picture from the celebration someone on another site and the empire is now called "the first order" so that new imperial logo is the first order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas1138 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Another thing I noticed is that it looks like there is a black robed figure in the background of the stormtroopers on the ice planet. I assume that is Kylo Ren, but it could be someone else I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Choc Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I like when people point out something small they noticed in the trailer because it gives me an excuse to watch again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Jade Skywalker Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I'm not ashamed to admit I cried. So did the rest of the overflow room. Absolutely fantastic and I want to watch it again and again and again. Also, Kathleen Kennedy is my new favorite person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevil Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 That wasn't recycled dialogue. That was Mark Hamill saying it anew. Vader helmet was amazing. This trailer have me feelings I couldn't remember. Han looked amazing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacen123 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I watched it a bunch of times at work and then watched it many more times just now. I'm sure I'll watch it more before I go to bed, too! Great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 Call me insane... but I feel like Chewie's warble seems like an overdub. I KNOW, ALL of Chewie's "dialog" is overdubbed. But it seemed... off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas1138 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 That wasn't recycled dialogue. That was Mark Hamill saying it anew. No way. That was totally 30 year old Hamill. Right? Right...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Choc Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 The voiceover has like a weird echo effect to part of it too. It doesn't sound exactly like Luke in ROTJ but it could be post production. I don't see him saying the exact same lines in this movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas1138 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 OH yeah I heard the echo effect too on my last viewing. It was jarring, because I didn't notice on the first... uh, several. And yeah, my thought was always that it was just p/re-recorded dialogue that isn't in the film but has some neat connotations to a movie called The Force Awakens.

The Choc Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I didn't notice the echo until I watched the trailer on my tv through apple tv, didn't notice it on the phone or comp but its very clear on the tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it seemed... off.It seemed to be a lot of growl for such little lip and mouth movement, yes. Probably just for the trailer - to reassure us that Chewie still speaks!

Metropolis Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 What I want to know is who is the head honcho that the storm troopers are saluting. There is someone the head of that podium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 I'm assuming it's Ren. I wonder if Carrie Fisher will look like she's just licked a lemon in every scene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryn Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 The lightsaber is handed over dangerous-end first; clearly the first handler has no clue what it is. The second handler (Daisy?) turns it around. Using the dialogue as a guide, the second handler is likely Leia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 Here's something I've never admitted to anyone. I get really annoyed by ALL of R2D2 and Chewbacca's dialog most times because I have watched Star Wars so much I know when it is recycled. All of R2D2's dialog in ESB is recycled from ANH and it annoys me because I know what he was "saying" the first time around. In ROTJ they made all new dialog for R2 so that was cool-- but the PT was nothing but mashups from both sources. Chewie has it even worse, all his dialog is recycled noises from ANH save for his "laugh" in ESB. It REALLY bugs me at live events when you can tell somebody with a sound board is plugged into the PA just triggering stuff randomly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
