Real talk: jayjaybrams last StarTrek was hella dumb. Fun. But dumb. MORE LIKE BROTREK! HIGHFIVE!!!!!!!

Get ready for Luke to jump in and go "aw poo poo, you'd think I'd miss this party?" Then he bro-arm-shakes hansolo and shoots lasers and poo poo.

Seriously.

Khan is badass since he killed lots of klingon scum using a laser minigun.

Also the perfect human is some weird pale brit guy.

The completely unstylish and impractical armor the imperials wear was acceptable in the 80s when Star Wars was a campy sci-fi movie, but now it just looks so obnoxious. A better reboot of this franchise would have included redesigns of all the aesthetics. I would have hoped for something dark and gritty but that's just me.

I appreciate the shot of all the stormtroopers stumbling out of their transport, there's no way to move in that armour without looking dorky as gently caress.

I just saw an X-Wing do a strafing run on some stormtroopers.

I cant decide if this was the dumbest or coolest thing Star Wars ever had.
Tie Fighters and X-Wings duking it out in atmoshperic environment is pretty much causing parts of my brain to shut down, which on the other hand might come in handy during the movie...

Yeah I am grateful for all of the cool star wars games I played when I was younger - Rogue Squadron, Pod Racing, Jedi Knight series (ton of fun with mods etc). I tried KOTOR for a bit but didn't get into it as much.

The guns on an X-Wing are approximatly 15ft. long high powered laser cannons used to vaporize enemy fighters, as shown 5 seconds before same gun hits a trooper in the chest and causes him to stumble backwards and fall over with his upper body fully intact.

If you see a trailer in which a battletank shoots someone in the shoulder and he goes "ouch" and falls down, do you say "wow thats gonna be a very good movie!"?

If you dont want to show what happens if humans are hit by anti-spacecraft cannons, dont show them being hit by anti-spacecraft cannons?

Also they had no problem severing limbs and spilling guts back then.

Im glad based on a 1 second part of the trailer you can make so many inferences but they need a PG rating or whatever so its not like theyre gonna show a stormtrooper having his shoulder blown apart with a bunch of gore and poo poo you idiot its a kids movie

Uh, think we´ve got a bad case of fanboi over here.

I repeat: If you dont want to show what would happen if you get hit by high caliber guns, dont show people getting hit by high caliber guns instead of making an energy-bolt the size of an elephant leg have the impact of a slightly wet towel.
