<p>That;s bullshit, Obi Wans dedication to the Jedi order was steadfast. STEADFAST.</p>

<p>Mind you he did lie to Luke.....</p> -
<p>I'm still stunned that Darth Vader is Lukes father!</p>

I like the original Star Wars movies. I don't like lame JJ Abrahms retreads that don't bring anything new and good to the mix. Also, there was a little bit of trolling in my post - The Force Awakens was definitely 4/10 garbage, not 3/10. -

<p>Anyway, leave me alone fluffybunnys, M4L and RS are the ones who behaved like a pair of trannies.</p> -

<p>Clearly the ginger is M4L but who is the black one?</p> -
<p>Anyway... moving on.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What I like about these new films is that they actually look like Star Wars. I get that it was a different time, but the prequels were too bright, with too much CGI and over-fancy mechanical shit that apparently didn't exist 30 years later. Some of that separatist kit was straight-out ridiculous.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just simple stuff like those Walkers is really farking cool.</p> -
<p>The prequels were not without their faults but in some ways they were back in a "simpler" time when the galaxy was at peace. By the time of the original trilogy they had been at war for years so it's not surprising that uniforms/spaceships etc had a "grimy" look. Death Stars and Star Destroyers probably cost a fair bit to manufacture so all the Galactic credits went into funding them as opposed to keeping the planets looking pretty ( or training foot soldiers to shoot straight )</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Say what you like about them but they also introduced some fucken cool new characters ( yeah yeah.....and Jah Jah )</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Rey, Finn, Ren etc aren't as cool overall as Dooku, Darth Maul, Jango, Mace Windu etc but there's still a few movies to get some more cool ones I'm sure.<br>
</p> -
<p>Yep, some great new characters. Qui Gon was another. Even the very minor ones like Plo Kloon and Kit Fisto are pretty cool. But the execution was terrible. It was like Lucas was drunk on CGI and went nuts.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A good example is E3 (which is actually very good). The space battle at the starts looks great, but then they have that bullshit with Obi's ship being wrecked by those insect droids or whatever the hell they were. Totally unnecessary.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As for new characters, that Forrest Whittaker looking guy (is it him) and the Samurai dude look a little meh.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I would love a movie concentrating on Wedge and the x-wing pilots.</p> -

<p> </p>
<p>Yeah that Samurai looking bloke concerns me. A lot. You don't go up against a bunch of Storm Troopers with a stick or did I not see it correctly and is it some kind of laser stick ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also trying to work out the identity of the bloke in the black cloak walking up to something that is flanked by the Red Royal Guards ( would be good to see them in action too ).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Can only assume it is DV or the Emp.</p> -

<p>be interesting to see how a SW film will go with no 'favourites'. No R2-D2, C3PO, Obi Wan or Jar Jar...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Instead it will largely based around characters no one really knows.</p>
</div>
</blockquote>
<p> </p>
<p>DV and/or the Emp will make an appearance surely.</p> -
<p>Vader hinted at in the trailer (in silhouette).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Don't be surprised if R2 and 3PO are spotted in the background either. After all they were working for Leia who is the one who receives the stolen plans in the end.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But yes, this will mainly be a new set of characters set in the universe.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Rouge Squadron novels (no longer canon) were cool. Like Biggles in space.</p> -
<p>Any money Vader turns around and stares right at the end. Thus leading to the next exciting instalment and more cash.</p>
