I was planning on not watching any trailers like I did for TFA, but curiosity got the better of me.

Visually very impressive. It’s great to see all the classic OT ships, stormtroopers, Yavin, etc. The sound of that alarm is pretty cool.

I love the idea of a Star Wars movie about the “regular joes” of the Rebellion, ie, NO JEDI.

Neutral on the lead actress, but it’s hard to tell with such a small sample size in the trailer. Her delivery of “It’s a rebellion, I rebel” is just ‘meh’ to me.

Not totally crazy about there being sophisticated martial arts in the SW universe, but it could be cool.

My one hope is that there are NO LIGHTSABERS, AND NO JEDI in the movie. My one exception would be if Vader briefly appeared, and just simply annihilated rebels with zero effort. It could be cool if he stalked them throughout the movie. Even better if he had no lines.

VERY VERY minor nitpick: “aggravated assault.” Takes me out a little bit because it immediately makes me think of the US judicial system; SW should be familiar to us, but this feels just a little too specific to earth.
