Star Wars VII ****contains spoilers****
-
If that had been the opening scene from Episode 1 the fans would have creamed themselves. Instead they got Jar Jar.....
-
<p>Fuck talk about Nerd heaven, outstanding. Would point out some of the wooden acting but then I remember Hayden Christiansens efforts in the prequels. Some sensational stunt work from whoever played Maul and that padawan chick was easy on the eye too.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There's also a couple of Boba Fett fan vids which are pretty decent, can anyone chuck the link in here ( on an Ipad so I can't )</p> -
<p>I knew I had seen it before</p>

<p>Wow, seeing it like that is eye opening......</p>
<p> </p>
<p>a couple of points......</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Darth Vaders entrance is one of the most iconic moments in cinema history, Kylo Ren is such a bitch in comparison ( especially when Poe pretty much takes the piss out of him )</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Episode IVs special effects are good enough for today let alone the era they came out in, seriously, have a look at any sci fi flick from the 70s and try and compare.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>to say Disney liberated one or two ideas from A new hope is being rather generous.</p> -
<p>I thought that was the whole idea. Re-boot the franchise to a whole new audience by using the film that started it all as a template.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You could hardly go back and re-do IV so why not re-do IV as VII while also continuing the overall story.</p> -

<p>Well yeah that is one argument depending on which Nerd theory you subscribe to. Either a homage or a rip off......</p> -

<p>a rip-off of its earlier self....re-living it's youth :think:</p> -
<p>I don't need to tell you <strike>geeks</strike> cool guys to keep it locked and loaded to the interweb tomorrow.....there's a preview trailer for a new Star Wars flick due out in December ! As I understand it it's kinda Star Wars 3.9 and involves a bunch of rebels stealing plans for the Death Star.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So we might get glimpses of some old favourite characters and fingers crossed there's no whiny emos trying to be tough Siths......</p> -

<p>Looks like they're trying to take out small moving targets when I feel their strengths would lie in storming stationary bases and laying them to waste. Possible tactical error there from the Empire.....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fuck I look at shit like I just wrote and wonder how I ever got laid sometimes.</p> -
Yep. It's like trying to hit infantry at close range with a howitzer..<br><br>
It looks farking cool. But... another sassy female lead. C'mon. I want a new Luke. -

<p>I'm confused, which one is supposed to be Moff Tarkin ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I thought he was a fucken cool character to be honest, very underrated in the overall scheme of the Star Wars universe. Not a Jedi or Sith but seemed like he could hold his own against them in a battle of wills.</p> -
Yeah, it seemed like he was the boss of Vader in E4. Unlike Alec Guinness, Peter Cushing loved Star Wars and was disappointed to get killed off.
