I think it looks great - can’t wait to see it.

IT’S JUST A MOVIE.

Oh look. Another 2016 registrant is a piece of garbage.

What the hell happened to this site? Is it just the influx of TFA trolls? General influx of members since TFA, resulting in a higher than average troll count?

Immediately after the film’s release, we had a number of new Stormfront-esque members complaining about black people, so I’m guessing it’s the former.

I also thing this semi wave of Prequel apologists have something to do with this as well.

Ahem I thought it was a nice touch to get the same actress back for Mon Mothma as Episode III. That was my first takeaway from the trailer, hoping that they hadn’t thrown a third one into the mix.
The aesthetic of classic '77 era Star Wars and lack of Jedi and lightsabers excites me. The movie doesn’t even have to be all that great for me to really enjoy something like this. It’s not part of the ‘saga,’ and I feel it will be freer to explore without fearing it will disappoint us.
Should be a ton of fun.

I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently.

Imagine if the crew of the Serenity were hired by the rebellion to get the plans… #nerdgasm

I got excited when I heard Wash was in this, but I’m disappointed he’s just mo-cap.

And I also thought for a moment Felicity Day was in this.

The first of these standalone ‘spin-off’ movies had kinda fallen off my radar until yesterday, but the new trailer proved quite interesting in many ways.

The effects and action certainly look good so far, and hopefully I’ll warm to all these new cast members eventually. By the way, I was keen to see who was re-cast as Alex McCrindle’s ‘General Dodonna’ in this, but I don’t see anyone listed for the role over on IMDB.com…which is a pity, as you can’t have too many beards in ‘Star Wars’!

But this ‘heist’ scenario is looking promising as a ‘prequel’ of sorts to the OT, and looks like it could end up having a somewhat ‘gritty’ vibe judging by this footage. I just wonder how Alexandre Desplat’s score is going to end up sounding throughout, as it’s going to feel somewhat strange not to have John Williams scoring the whole thing this time around - however, it seems he’s listed as the composer of the ‘theme’ music, so things will probably kick off in the usual way with an info. scroll I presume. It would be nice if the new composer does a good job with this.

What are the new tan helmet scout looking troopers called?

Looks like Phil Noto’s at it again, making his own posters that will inevitably turn out to be way better than whatever the official one is:

Isn’t Felicity Jones’ character supposed to be Han Solo’s ex girlfried? He was a gentler man back then, but their break up caused him to build the tough guy exterior and selfish personality we saw in Episode 4…

Hey! I read the first book and liked it!

I suppose you’d prefer an anorexic stick with fake tits for the role, right?

Lord, are people’s standards of beauty getting worse all the time or what.

People’s standards of everything are getting worse, judging by some of the rankings here lately.

I’m excited by this trailer and I loved everything about it!

Funny, a “drag-and-drop”-superlaser ^^

To mount the primary weapon, the essencial component, as last part of the whole station is rubbish. It is only to look cool.

It’s just the dish. There appeared to be a lot of stuff already installed under it. Maybe they had to replace it or something? The first dish could have fried during a test fire. There had to be a few bugs, considering who actually designed the DS.

And i hope they find another main character actress.

Do not go there. I mean it.

Where were you in '77?

The caped Imperial looks to be an Imperial Security Bureau officer (white shirt, black pants). I’d love a guide to Imperial officer uniforms.
