I'm glad to see that it seems like they'll be following up on Rey having crazy amounts of raw power.

Davros1 posted:I'm not. It's lazy. It's like when a popular series regular leaves, so the producers panic at the thought of losing popularity, so they replace that character with someone who's just like them, but they overcompensate by telling the audience that the new character is even better than the last one. It seems like its gonna actually be a plot point though. Not just upping the stakes for no reason.

Oh yeah, Ben taking a shot at Leia and Rey seeking advice from Ben are almost certainly fakeout trailer edits.

Lord Hydronium posted:The trailer music since the Disney takeover has really been on point. I like the use of the new themes in the TLJ trailers, and it goes to show how nicely Williams' sequel material fits with the previously existing music. Oh yeah. The reprise of Jedi Steps in there was really nice.

berserker posted:WTF Chewy and his eyes are most definitely not CGI. He's being played by a younger guy now who has taken over from Peter Mayhew who physically can't do it anymore. They're still crediting Mayhew though. Like Kenny Baker in the Prequels, they'll put him in the suit for a shot or two.

Honestly I think I'm more interested in finding out more about Ben than Rey...I still think Rey's origin/secret is gonna be the safest possible thing, but Ben stands a chance of being far more interesting, especially since they went ahead and had him commit patricide.

SuperMechagodzilla posted:Maz talks about the sith, the baddies talk about clone troopers, and the republic is based on Coruscant. Kyle is blatantly a version of Anakin, and Luke going missing after his Jedi school is destroyed is a direct reference to Revenge Of The Sith. Slight correction; Coruscant doesn't appear in TFA. The Hosnian system is the one housing the government and gets destroyed by Starkiller Base

thrawn527 posted:SMG has made this argument before, that it doesn't matter if it's technically not called Coruscant, it looks and acts AS Coruscant for the purposes of the movie, so for the audience, it being a city planet is a call back to the prequels. It is meant to evoke Coruscant, in appearance and in function, and this only works because we see Coruscant in the prequels. Why don't people just say this, then? Why blatantly lie and call it Coruscant, when the actual meaning meant to be conveyed is "a planet/system like Coruscant"?

The only strictly non-canonical bit in From a Certain Point of View is that one joke comic panel "story" about a cardboard box fort on Dantooine.

BravestOfTheLamps posted:"It's bad that the character is a creep" For once, I actually completely agree with you. I think most of people's problems with the "romance" is a result of two things. Firstly, George's awkward dialog. And it's not awkward in the "two teens who are really bad at talking to one another" way. And secondly, people have certain expectations for how a film romance between the protagonists is supposed to play out...and Anakin and Padme don't follow the script for a happy ending.

viral spiral posted:I can't tell if you're being serious. Not only did it copy the plot, it even had some of the same shots and compositions. RLM, countless youtubers, and even critics explains this in great detail with a simple google search. I'm being very serious. Episode VII is not a remake of Episode IV. Why would it have a completely different episode number, different plot beats, and different characters if it was a remake? The crux of the film's plot is finding a character fr Episode IV. Literally no locations, other than "on board the Falcon" are reused between IV and VII. Other than Han, Luke, Leia, Ackbar, and Nien Nunb, there are no characters from the OT, let alone IV, in VII.
