Big Mean Jerk posted:Aside from the folks in that cast picture you also have Mads Mikkelson playing some type of Imperial, possibly the guy who feeds them info on the plans. It does seem like they're missing a big bad who chases the team down. Though there's been constant rumors of the ESB bounty hunters appearing in that capacity. Forest Whitaker, Ben Mendelsohn, and Alan Tudyk are also in the movie but not the cast photo.

Jerkface posted:Nah, no clash. Vader is going to be a monster, a force-of-nature, more akin to a horror movie antagonist than the villainous lapdop he was in ANH-ESB. Agreed. Disney paid 3.5 billion for Darth Vader and 0.5 billion for the rest of Star Wars.

Kly posted:I think its interesting that you all think the ot characters are failures in tfa because they didnt completely crush their opposition, rule the galaxy in peace, have a perfect family life and become dean of a thriving new jedi school for 30 years straight It's not that they didn't completely crush their opposition. It's that they built a lovely, weak Republic no one in the movie even pretends to really care about and, through their various failures, contributed to the opposition's resurgence. Contrary to what many people ITT say, these things did not have to happen this way in order for there to be a compelling new conflict for the heroes to face. It's called creativity. Unfortunately, creativity was obviously never the main driving force behind TFA. G-III posted:Reminds me of the prequels which basically told the audience: "Remember when Obi Won talked up the Jedi as being these glorious protectors of peace and justice? Yeah well turns out they were actually a bunch of creepy monastic weirdo thugs for hire that got duped into being the drivers of their own destruction." The Jedi aren't creepy monastic weirdo thugs. They're a monastic order of warriors who train adepts at a young age and act as mediators for conflicts in the Old Republic, just like the OT always implied. And of course they got duped into being the drivers of their own destruction. What did you think happened? The Jedi obviously failed somehow. They all got killed and the Empire took control, man. The Jedi of the PT are tragic heroes. Cnut the Great fucked around with this message at 05:55 on Apr 7, 2016 |

That's a good Mon Mothma lookalike they got as well. I'm excited. I liked what Edwards did with Godzilla, he managed to give the movie a certain look and feel I don't think one would expect from a very controlled and run-by-commitee franchise, so I think this movie will at the very least be interesting, and more than likely quite good.

There's a woman at the forefront of a movie that is part of the biggest entertainment franchise in the world. Neckbeards will have a fit. And I will have a proper good laugh about it.
