Guess I'll wait for something more substantial but not really looking forward to this. SuperMechagodzilla posted:Episode VII will be a Star Wars movie, but nerds do not actually like Star Wars.

That retarded lightsaber killed my immersion. Why do they always gently caress with the fundamentals.

Haha... I just realized how off my prediction of content was, because they intercut a lot of black. GG Ambams. Young lady looks like she could be Debbie Reynolds' granddaughter. Bet she's a Skywalker.

X-Wings are great and all, but where's the Z-95 Headhunter?

I feel like people complaining this doesn't feel like Star Wars are somehow unaware that cinema has advanced since the late '70s/early '80s.

Computer Parts has thrown down the gauntlet. If you like Star Wars Episode 7, it will be because you don't like Star Wars movies. NOW WHAT NERDS

It looks like JJ's other generic sci-fi movies with tiny sprinkles of nostalgia.

I think it looks like Star Wars. Star Wars is pretty cool ![]()

I think its fair to say there was more acting in Boyega's sweaty face than in the entire Prequel trilogy combined. Goddamn that was good.

I thought the ClaymoreSaber was a "bit" chincy, but everything else owned, EXCEPT MY GODDAMNED VIEW OF LUKE/HAN/LEIA/CHEWIE/R2/THREEPIO. Goddammit I wanted to see what they look like in the movie so bad!!!! Williams Score was loving PERFECT! Did anyone catch the sound effect of the Imperial Probe Droid right at the beginning before they cut way from Boyega? MrBigglesworth fucked around with this message at 15:44 on Nov 28, 2014 |

I like that the first thing we see of the new Star Wars is a terrified black stormtrooper lurching up into the frame.

That lightsaber is ridiculous. (Watch the lightsaber become the thing that ruined this movie.) X-Wings over water, though, sweet.

Oh my goddddd, every shot from that trailer had me like ![]() It really doesn't look like it's shot like any Star Wars movie has been before, but it sure looked gorgeous to me, so I think I'll be totally cool with that. Like, it looks like Star Wars but handled by a much more skilled cinematographer.

I don't care if it "looks like Star Wars". I care if it "looks like a good movie". And it does. ![]()

That lighsaber is pretty rad actually - could be "so powerful!!" that it needs to expend some gas. I dunno.

There is no point to the lightsaber's features, it would actually probably cut the user's hand off. Retarded.

It's not an impractical crossguard folks, see it as two exhaust pipes ![]()

ShineDog posted:No, thats the xwing you see. The engines split with the wing. ![]() What gets me about the lightsaber is maybe not so much the tiny blades serving as a crossguard or whatever, but the fact that they don't appear simultaneously with the main blade. It's just comical the way it communicates this self-satisfied "HO HO HO BET YOU DIDN'T EXPECT THAT" feeling. It's loving silly to actually get upset about it, however.

im gay posted:That retarded lightsaber killed my immersion. Why do they always gently caress with the fundamentals. It's red, so that's obviously a Sith saber, and they seem to gently caress with the saber designs in general. This teaser loving OWNED. Of course, Star Wars teaser trailers always own. Without exception. Regardless if the movie is the best thing ever or the worst... Star Wars never fails to hype me THE gently caress UP.

Jesus, I just realized why it looks so different, because nothing looks like a terrible CGI'd person-in-front-of-green screen shot. Look at the mountains and clouds in the background of those X-Wings. It.....it looks like they actually filmed that beautiful landscape for real. ![]()

The lightsaber effect looks really ragged. I mean it looks finished, but it's not like some perfectly smooth gradient that we've seen before in the previous films. It looks rad ![]()
