Celebration 2017 Speculation — Page 25

Hearing Leia’s theme conducted by the master himself absolutely destroyed me. The orchestra really “brought it” as well. Do we know who they are?

According to this article on the event, it was the Orlando Philharmonic - www.aintitcool.com/node/77639

I wasn’t expecting anything on a OUT trilogy release, rather hoping against hope for a restoration of the first movie for its 40th anniversary. Seeing the out-takes in the 4K thread has made me wonder all over again though. I guess we’ll know for sure after today’s screening of Star Wars & Rogue One?

As I have already said, the simple thing is that OOT release is just not profitable enough for them to care. While it might bring millions, that is still a change compared to billions they are making with other stuff.

This isn’t the reason at all.

George Lucas is … still … the reason why we don’t have an official OOT. Disney could give it to us any time they want, but they have obviously told us all to **** off and keep paying for their shit movies.

I’m envious of you 9-5 mothafuckas because I have to put in a half day at work before I get to see the trailer for TLJ.

Just 4 hours left though…

I’m not celebrating.

I do think it’s partially because they want to keep the attention focused solely on the new movies. Sure, they could give us what we want right now, but it would distract from the new stuff they’re selling. If it doesn’t happen in the next eight months during this long gap between the RO blu and the theatrical release of TLJ, I don’t see it happening next year either because of the Han Solo movie that’s coming out in May. Then IX comes out in May of 2019 (yes, that’s still the release date, not December, and the rumor that they’re going to start shooting this summer would seem to mean they’re serious).

Way too many signs point to 2020 for me to think otherwise. I even heard the other day there are plans for a hiatus from making new movies. What’s going to be frustrating is if there’s still another movie coming out after IX and they choose to wait longer than they need to (May of 2020) to release the OOT, simply out of not wanting to distract from whatever that new movie is.

I doubt it. Main “Saga” movies maybe (which I’d like, actually), but I bet they’ll keep making the EU “Story” movies if nothing else.

The slashfilm article definitely seemed to indicate a hiatus from the movies in general, not just the saga films.

So, are we allowed to go crazy over the upcoming TLJ panel / trailer here? Or should that stay in the spoiler thread?

This thread was started pretty much solely because of the OOT rumors. Anything TLJ-related should probably stay in that thread. I know many people don’t consider stuff shown in officially-releasd trailers to be spoilers, but some still do. It’s best to err on the side of caution.

Slashfilm? Blech.

Just saw this and they added that it also doesn’t have to do with an Obi Wan movie. Time to get my hopes up again.

New TLJ release date? OOT? I can’t wait!

JawsTDS said:

I’m betting it’s either a BTS reel or a new teaser poster.

Nah.
That would be the most anticlimactic thing to ever happen

I find it kind of funny that Kathleen Kennedy said Rogue One was a risk. I mean c’mon, a Star Wars movie with Darth Vader is a risk?

Josh Gad is doing a great job.

Help me Obi Wan, we have no hope!
