The lightsaber looked kind of dumb at first but then I remembered ewoks so I'm willing to give it a chance.

Are you actually fluent in Japanese? I don’t want to be harsh, but you seem to have mis-translated the Kanji – if you indeed tried at all

Floating pink force elephants making GBS threads out jar-jars.
Ewoks fly battle kites through a desolate moonscape as the screen fades to a sixties acid segue.
Birds appear on screen, only to be replaced by animated Keebler elves loving.

that's actually true. you would have to go out of your way to not saber right through your own wrist with that crossguard.

Haha guys Star Wars is so dumb, nerds just LOVE that poo poo, god.

My friend luke says its going to have those weird inception noises that all trailers have these days and I don't know how I feel about this
What about that sound they always play when slowing down an action scene nowadays, did they have that?

Not the inception horns, the other thing

You're a good man for scouring the internet for nerd quotes - ironically yet appropriately named 'a starwar betamax'.
I know the material is hard to come by, but you're doing it consistently.

would it be theoretically possible to transfer the new films onto betamax?

I've actually never watched a single Star Wars movie all the way through. My parents took me to 3 when it came out, but I was tired as gently caress and passed out after they crash landed a space ship.

we all know this is disney this movie isn't going to be about being good it's just going to be about getting as many iconic things on screen that they can monetize as merchandise. They saw how george lucas got rich.

it can't guard against another light saber. It will just get cut through, the blade part of the guard will just be in the way.
