jivjov posted:How so? We've got another year to go before release, it seems to have gotten the same amount of production time as Episode VII. Speak of the devil...  I doubt we'll be getting it alongside TFA; prints are already out in the wild, and if the trailer is just now being shown around Lucasfilm, it's probably not attached to the film proper. Still, 'soon' seems to be the right word here.

ThePutty posted:i really want to see that force vision segment again because it seems like one of the more important scenes in the movie. hope it gets out on the internet somewhere Images of it have indeed leaked out; don't know if it's kosher to post them here (as they're basically screengrabs of a cam rip) but regarding that dude, it's definitely not Zuvio; his face is uncovered and has far-more-human characteristics than the Constable does. I'm guessing he's a pupil of Luke's trying to protect little Rey before getting stabbed in the back by Kylo.

Sir Lemming posted:TFA is the opposite extreme, almost to a fault. There's literally almost no exposition at all after the opening text crawl. I actually might've liked just one or two scenes in the Republic government office or whatever, just to show some people saying "how about that New Order, I'm glad the Resistance is around, hopefully we don't get attacked" or something. But overall, Abrams took the right approach here. Thing is, Abrams had literally shot scenes with that same expository intent in mind. There's that one shot of the folks on Hosnian Prime reacting to their imminent doom, but the camera is plainly focused on one woman dressed up in a Resistance uniform; she was apparently supposed to be Leia's aide, and we would have seen her, had they not cut her scenes, petitioning the Senate for more concrete assistance against the First Order. But as one might imagine, that would have taken away from the pacing of the kids encountering Han Solo and going to Maz's watering hole, plus I personally think that X-Wings dropping in to kick rear end is a better introduction to the Resistance than Senate procedures. Can't wait to see it as a deleted scene, though. Cross-Section fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Dec 24, 2015 |

I like how unwieldy the Falcon appears in this shot (and the escape sequence in general). Really reinforces the idea that Rey's still learning how to fly the dang thing in the midst of all this mayhem. Additionally, the scorched terrain on either side of the Starkiller is a nice continuity nod.

ShineDog posted:I can't believe the Senate scene isn't one of the deleted bits. The one huge gaping hole that would lend the essential context to starkiller firing and its not on there. I'm getting the impression that all of the deleted scenes on the disc are the ones that just barely ended up on the cutting room floor, seeing as the ones that have leaked (like the Kylo Ren one) seem to have final effects and music on them, like the scenes that were included on the Episode I-III DVDs. Expect the senate scene in the "Complete Saga" boxset we get in a few years; that's where all the pre-vis and dailies-quality deleted scenes from the Prequels ended up last time around.

Teek posted:The problem with these types of tweaks, is we never know how the movies would have flowed originally. I'm not familiar with to what degree III adjusted that plot line. Did it improve things? We can't really tell at this point since we'll never see the original. Being largely unhappy with Anakin's reasoning for his heel turn, I wonder. I know at least for the ROTS reshoots, the Mace/Palpy duel was heavily modified; Anakin was supposed to be there for the entire duration, but observing from afar (presumably embattled over which side to support) in addition to Ian Mcdiarmid being almost completely replaced by a stunt double as opposed to the final version where it's actually him for most of the fight. Apparently, the same CG face method used for the Dooku duels wasn't working out with this one.

In non-Thrawn-related news, Rogue One may not have an opening crawl, according to Kathleen Kennedy. Doesn't really bother me much considering that some enterprising fans will likely edit one in after the home release is out.

korusan posted:This looks a hell of a lot more interesting than the prequels or TFA, and I say this as someone who loved the latter. It dawned on me while watching that this might be the first Star Wars with no lightsabers - something twelve year old me would obsess and lament over for "breaking trend", but quite honestly nowadays I'm glad. Break that mold or we're just gonna keep getting the same three movies over and over until we're all dead (and it'll continue after that). No lightsabers, you say?

It's funny because there is actual new RO footage from a Jimmy Fallon cast appearance out there. The Giacchino score... sounds like a Giacchino score, but given that most of his music sounds like Star Wars anyway, that's a smaller issue than it might usually be. The bigger one in regards to Rogue One is matching said music with the visuals, which may prove a daunting task given the downcast, war-film tones they're talking about. K-2SO humor is on POINT, though. Cross-Section fucked around with this message at 00:16 on Dec 2, 2016 |

I actually really dig his MoH scores in addition to the stuff he did for Mercenaries, but his incidental stuff at least has all sounded a bit samey to me since Star Trek 09. That said, you can either chalk it up to my untrained ear and/or the fact that he was brought in super last minute for Rogue One.

Almost all of Krennic's lines in the prologue are gold. And it's not so much the writing as it is Mendelsohn's delivery; there's such a sardonic quality to it that ends up making the whole interaction oddly refreshing for a typical Star Wars villain/hero dialogue exchange.

On the bright side, there are a ton of bootlegs floating around YouTube and the Internet at large, as quite a lot of that unreleased Prequel music still made it into video games like Battlefront 2 and SWTOR.

Detective No. 27 posted:Could we talk about prequel memes for a moment? SMG's always talking about how cultural memes (sand) have colored people's perception of the movies. Are internet memes slowly vindicating the prequels? Do the prequels suddenly have a new, albeit ironic audience? A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

SpiritOfSanDimas posted:I hate Star Wars but I love Disneyland, have they said anything on what the rides would be? I don't want some Star Tours bullshit where you are basically just watching a screen which they can continually update to whatever movie is out, nor do I want some glorified video game bullshit There are reportedly two major attractions, one where you personally pilot the Falcon (so basically glorified video game bullshit) and the other, what sounds like a dark ride in which you're caught in the middle of a fight between the First Order and Resistance. Sounds like it may be a bit more than that given how they're hyping up how "innovative" it is. Here's the ride vehicle for the latter one:

The New Republic having FO-supporting-Imperialist and Populist factions was done at the behest of Rian Johnson for the novel Bloodline, so those ideas are likely to also pop-up in TLJ.

The REAL Goobusters posted:he's gonna try to gently caress daisy ridley over my dead body also we're probably getting Rian again quote:Put Rian Johnson atop the short list of directors who might replace the recently departed Colin Trevorrow in Star Wars: Episode IX. Insiders said that nothing is done yet, but that prospect is certainly in the air right now. The Looper helmer fit seamlessly into the Lucasfilm machine, which is no small feat given the number of star directors who’ve been chewed up and spat out under the “creative difference” line in exiting Star Wars movies.
