kinda weird how they got rid of the classical score, is John Williams even working on this one?

I thought the same, the themes were there, but stylistically it didn't sound like John Williams. But apparently, yes, it is Williams doing the score.

Nuts and Gum posted:

So why did leia make out with her brother? Was it Lucas had no idea what the gently caress he was doing and improvised or does this make sense in space logic?

Both!

1) Lucas was planning on doing six movies and spending time developing a second major female character as Luke's sister, but he got burned out on Star Wars. He had one film to wrap up the "another Skywalker" subplot, and Leia was the only familiar character who could fit the bill.

2) Siblings who are raised apart don't benefit from the Westermarck effect and may be attracted to each other if they meet as adults. It's called genetic sexual attraction.

I like how Lucas got all the original series cast members to sign away their likeness for merchandizing reasons.

they should make a movie about the interim period that's just Darth Vader cruising the galaxy and murdering Jedi. Or make it a TV show even. Darth Vader would be the main character slash antihero and they could paint the Jedi in a bad light even though you know ultimately Vader is the bad guy.

it could be like a detective show or something but at the end Vader brutally murders the Jedi instead of arresting them.

I'd watch the poo poo out of that.

They should hype all the prequels but then actually show Space Balls in all the theaters.

It actually ends with the black guy getting pulled over for having a broken tail light on his landspeeder.

so i've got tickets for this thing and somehow it seems like it's being released december 16 in theaters in my countries rather than the world release of december 18. i guess that's good, but honestly i don't have that high hopes for it.

me and a group of friends are all gonna go dressed as george lucas, looking more forward to that.

I think they are doing that on purpose; never breaking into a full burst with the music (other than the battle music), so that people aren't burnt out on hearing it when it hits them in the theater.

A smart move.
