This new TV spot has a very different take on the “I rebel” line; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AElDp0ArdRw
yeah, i remember seeing that. must have redone the lines, and i think it is an improvement.
So there are some 70mm prints being made? Maybe I will luck out!
Seems so. but no idea where. Best of luck to you!
Dude, I saw TFA twice in 70mm 2D IMAX. 😉
I just contacted a few local theaters. Apart from a select few 2D 70mm showings, it will be all IMAX 3D.

coincidence? i think NOT.
I wonder what you will come up with tomorrow.
my google-fu is not strong enough for tomorrow. i may have to wait a few more days.
que? why double post? sorry.

Well, so far I do not see an improvement in this forum. Thanks computer.
It firing on Scarif would be pretty weird. But then again that’s the sort of crazy thing that the Empire might do.
I thought when they destroy Alderaan in SW that it was the first time the superlaser was used.
Well, the RO trailer does show the DS firing on Jedha. However the super laser is most likely not fully operational at this point, hence it doesn’t blow up the entire planet and instead just causes a lot of destruction. I guess they did this in RO so that the DS can still be a big threat to the main characters without undermining ANH. Alderaan was simply the first test of the “fully operational” DS and its planet destroying capabilities. In RO it seem to only be capable of blowing up a city-sized area.
Ugh…
Why “ugh”? Like SilverWook said, it makes sense for them to test the unfinished laser. Also since the plot of RO seem to revolve around Kyber crystals from Jedha and Galen’s expertise on them, it makes sense that they would have a weaker laser during this film.
Also ANH characters constantly bragging about the “fully armed and operatinal” DS does mean that it should be unfinished in RO. It’d be silly if it just hovered over some planet all the time doing nothing.
this has mostly been my take as well. that shot from the trailer almost certainly is the death star in some low power mode / not working mode. and if it isn’t the death star, i would be slightly annoyed that there is some other amazing weapon we never heard of…
i don’t know any EU stuff, but wouldn’t it be really confusing to have any of those introduced in a movie that is all about the death star?

So who is planning to buy pre-sale tickets? IMAX 3D? Standard 3D? Standard?
I’m booked for the 12:05 showing Thursday 15th and also an evening showing on the 16th in 2D, here in the UK.
nice. still waiting to buy tickets here … 😦
I still can’t find any info about possible 70mm venues, and the IMAX I saw TFA at back in January seems to be closing for repairs or something on opening day. 😦
that is terrible timing!
Tickets on sale in the UK today i guess? no news about US:

that is an interesting find.
boom!
Saw Arrival last night again. Hands down…confirmed…my favorite movie of the year. Made me cry. The only other time Iv cried during a movie, is Return of the King.
i finally got to see it. Very good movie. For a year that didn’t have very many good movies, it certainly gets a high rating from me as well.
I don’t recall any gags, can you point a few out?
Gags (spoilers, maybe):
Cruise jumps off of a moving car to crash into a yoga studio in an uncomfortable position as a woman with her head between her legs waddles over to assist.
Cruise jumps on the back of a jet pack policeman, who then flies into an apartment, cooking their hamburgers for them as the woman keeps yelling to get out of her apartment. This is followed immediately by cutaways to the family in the apartment above backing away from their dinner table just before the jet pack flies through it.
Cruise drops his (old) eyeballs and chases them down a hallway into a sewer grate.
I think there were a couple others, they just didn’t fit. Maybe a fan edit would help, but I don’t care enough to find/make one.
i forgot about those first two, yeah, those are worth getting rid of
i like it.
BOO-YEAH! is not a thing. It’s what uncool people say when they mean BOO-YAH!
BOO-YAH!
ooooh yeah.
not till 10pm or so EST.
Going to see Arrival again tonight. Very Psyched! 😃
I am going to see it for my first time tomorrow, no spoilers please!
Done!

As it turns out it works better that way anyway, so thanks.
that is more much obviouser
am i early?
i recall that scene. i don’t think i would call it a gag, but fair enough. it isn’t a great sci-fi movie. has some good elements, but certainly is missing something. i will agree with your statement of it being inconsistent.
People always find new ways to amaze
I don’t recall any gags, can you point a few out? But I do agree, wasn’t as good as it could have been.
You mean like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sClBNY1EISU ?
ALLOL. How have I never seen this before…
ah hahaha, thanks for the share, never saw it before either!
My Dad is having a turkey sandwich for his birthday party this weekend. Please have Harmy let Adywan know if this will affect the 4K77 project.
