Star Wars Discussion Thread v. Rogue One

[Destiny Of Chaos]

I must be in the minority, because I feel that most of the titles are good. I think that The Phantom Menace is an incredible title.

[Kotowboy]

Honestly, I thin every single Star Wars movie title is pretty silly, which is precisely what gives them that Star Wars vibe. This new title is defferent from that because I feel that it's not silly enough to sound like proper Star Wars movie. So whatever title they choose is fine by me. It doesn't affect my excitement for the movie itself the slightest.

I preferred " A New Hope "'s original title of " Star Wars "

I certainly did.  It will always be Star Wars to me.

[BlackInk]

To me it's 'A New Hope', but that's just because I have no personal ties to anything from before that. And I find it inconsistent to think of it as just 'Star Wars' when all the other ones get episode numbers and sub-titles.

[Cool Chris]

I sill think they should have gone with: The Adventures of Luke Starkiller as taken from the "Journal of the Whills" Saga I: Star Wars

[PetFish]

If I could have titled it I'd call it:  The New Republic

We had The Old Republic and it was The Current Republic when it died when Palpatine took over and we had the Rise of The Empire and then 4-6 was the Fall of The Empire.  Or, perhaps IX will be called "The New Republic" cuz that's what I'd like to see them working towards along with a new Jedi Council.

What would you guys have titled VII if you could?

Heard some good ones on the radio, but of course can only remember one:  Episode VII: I'm Getting Too Old for This Sith

[MrBoom_shack-a-lack]

Y'all heard it a million times but maybe not entirely to the end though. The last couple of bars on The Throne Room/End Title is pure joy for the percussion section. Brute force with 3 snare drums playing rolls as loud as humanly possible (Not really but pretty damn close).

Love it!

teaser trailer debuts Friday, November 28th at select theaters. 

[Cool Chris]

And debuts shortly thereafter on youtube.

Most anticipated movie of all time (or at least since Ep 1)?

[jingle.boy]

And debuts shortly thereafter before on youtube.

Everything leaks to the youtubez first.  Exhibit A: Avengers 2 trailer.  Exhibit B: Jurassic Park trailer.

I predict we'll get it sometime tomorrow.

my mouth dropped.  this is way more than I was expecting.  and so good.  this is way more exciting than the TPM trailer was in 1998.

[jingle.boy]

Not a bad fake... almost had me with the current Mark Hammil shot.  It was uploaded two days ago.  Some of those shots I'd seen in other fakes.

[BlobVanDam]

So, it's going to be Friday on iTunes or whatever.


If it actually requires iTunes to watch a trailer, I'll just wait until someone uploads it on Youtube.

[jammindude]

This really fooled me as well.   I'm still not sure...because where did the Hamill shot come from???

But ya, a lot of people are saying it's fake.

It's definitely fake.  https://kotaku.com/fake-star-wars-force-awakens-trailer-is-most-impressiv-1663605122

[jammindude]

Ok....it's fake.

That still doesn't answer the question of where this person got the motion shot of Hamill in full on Jedi garb.   Who is this guy? And how did he get that footage?

It's not that hard to create footage from scratch with a few image/video elements. I've seen plenty of these fake trailer type videos done that way.

[PetFish]

I'm just gonna say it.  So far, Rebels is terrible, and that makes me super sad panda.

The animation is fantastic but the characters all blow and I don't know how to feel about this... I guess hugely disappointed.

Crappy stories.  Moron Force-sensitive kid.  Stupid musclehead alien.

But the biggest fail is the garbage Jedi.  He must have the midichlorian-count of a rock.  He's so weak and useless and is a terrible example for the moron Force-sensitive kid.

There's just no magic.  I don't care about any of these characters.  I really hope it gets better.  I hate talking crap about art but I just had to vent.

[jammindude]

As much as I loved the first few episodes, I have just been too busy to keep up.

I felt like it was "Star Wars meets Firefly" and I really think it works.   I certainly hope the episodes don't trail off after the first few. 

It's certainly a MILLION times better than the prequels.    I *do* think it has "the Star Wars magic", and I hope it keeps going.

[nicmos]

I guess I'm sort of glad it's fake.  it'll keep the mystery for a little longer.  I was wondering why it had Darth Vader's breathing at the end, and the emperor's cackle.  there were enough elements like the Hamill shot and the Ford dialogue that I was fooled though.
