I am officially excited now.  For a trailer, that was great.  I LOVE the crashed x-wing and star destroyer on what I presume is Tatooine.  I do wonder why our storm trooper friend is always sweating profusely every time we see him.

Overcompensating for the stormtrooper that bonked his head on the bulkhead in ep. IV.

Looks awesome. Great Chewbacca scene. I wonder - is Luke covered guy with R2D2? He has a metallic hand, so it would fit.

I've not seen it mentioned yet :

"My father HAS it. Not HAD "



Also STFU about lens flare for fucks sake. JJ didn't invent it and he's not the only director to ever use it.

You know, it's weird.  When I watch the original trilogy, Harrison Ford is obviously much younger than he is in recent films, but to me he doesn't look like Harrison Ford; he just looks like Han Solo, because that was the first role I really knew him in.

Over the nearly 40 years in between, Harrison Ford has aged a lot, and in a way, doesn't really look like Han Solo.  When I see him in later stuff, I sometimes have trouble even reconciling that it's the same guy.

Seriously, does this guy:



look like this guy?



I have a little trouble with that.  But this guy:



I mean, that's Han Solo.  Older, but he actually looks like the same guy.

I have no idea what the point of this is, other than that I'm excited.  Han was the coolest.

Combined with Luke's voice over saying "I have it" over that clip, I'd say it's pretty certain. Unless they're trying to trick us.

I cried.

A lot.

I love Star Wars but I had no idea how much until this trailer.  The emotions hit me so hard.  I recommend watching the trailer from the audience POV from Celebration.  Experiencing the crowd reactions adds another level of awesome.

Agreed. And the "my sister has it" I presume that to be Leia handing that lightsaber to a new upcoming student.

Yep, and dunno if it's already confirmed, but also certainly strongly implied he was talking to his son/daughter, who presumably will be one of the main protagonists.

Great trailer!

Yeah what's that about? While watching the trailer I thought it would be Luke talking, but when he said that I figured it couldn't be. But it is, isn't it?

Over thinking a bit?  It's the line from Jedi, word for word.  Just because you're dead doesn't mean you no longer have the Force.
Is all that we see or seem, but a dream within a dream?

Love the trailer.  Love Star Wars.

My only worry is that they undo too much of the Episode 6 Grand Finale.


Undo what?! :lol
