I've downloaded the 1080p trailer via youtube and seen it a few times now. Tomorrow night I have a mate coming over for a film night so going to see how it looks on the Epson projector and 110" screen :)

I'm liking the trailer the more I see it. The only thing bugging me still is the falcon. The CGI is very detailed (pausing the 1080p shots reveals lots of attention to weathering and impressive digital lighting effects) but... the shape just looks off to me. It doesn't feel like the falcon. I've admired that ship since the late 70s, but this just feels wrong. I need to get a picture of the OTs model(s) and the trailer together to check. My gut feeling is the side walls of the ship are too thin, and the ship looks slightly too wide & long, stretched out?
