If this shot is representative of TFA’s overall aesthetic then I’m getting even more hyped than I already am.


Just needs “Ride of the Valkyries” playing over it.

These trailers, I have been trying to pin down the style, and the closest thing I can find to it, what are their inspiration.

And I am feeling that it is inspired by “the thin red line” by terrence mallick. The narrative over images.
That is an acknowledgement by the film makers I think of Mallicks work. About time he did the extended cut. but I am calling Terrence Mallick an inspiration and influence on the TFA perhaps only subtle but it seems it has been used in study in relation to the new Star wars trilogy.

Perhaps Kasdan and JJ both admire it although far from being the same it has that flavour
