Star Wars VII - The Force Awakens, on BluRay and Dvd April 5th, 2016

[SchizophrenicMC]

I don't like the s-foils, on closer inspection.

Lots of change for change's sake. I don't dig that.

[Marzan]

At least it seems more promising than episode 1. That's a start I suppose.

[Roy Focker]

Not enough shown to really pass judgment.

[Scyla]

I don't like the fuzzy stile of the light saber blade. To me the blade has to have a solid look.

[Dobber]

The whole flight this time

[Mommar]

I actually like the way the split wings look on the X-Wings. I can't say much or the scene itself. What I don't care for is most of the cinematography. That whole sequence with the Falcon just felt so off on so many levels.

The junker speeder bike was kinda cool, not everything has to look sleek and awesome. Utilitarian isn't always beautiful.

[Black Valkyrie]

Hi res screen shots.

[skullmilitia]

LOL Star Wars was all about junky fighters, the more junky, the more modern to SW. I think the Speeder might just be vintage

seeing how it's probably salvaged from some random Mos Eisley junker.

S-foils don't bother me, it's fairly more accurate to have the two splits make one wing... ya know.. because atmosphere and stuff.
I know the original SW was just nothing but fantasy space flight, it just looks like they were at least moving to a more scientific feel

Which is fine with me.

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

looking at those hi res pics again, those tie fighter lasers are way too long (i guess by speeding up the lasers, they look like a lighthouse flashing signals)

how can those green long beams match the tie fighter "uzi gun" shooting sound?

we need laser bullets. not beams. haha jk, love the trailer:)

I don't like the fuzzy stile of the light saber blade. To me the blade has to have a solid look.

I think that's why there's speculation that's a very old light saber.

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

Reveled the New Jedi master in the new movie

i 've been watching these goofy fan made trailers today. this is the funniest:

[Kelsain]

Just watched it. Too much, too fast. Must watch again!

[UN Spacy]

Looks decent.

[taksraven]

That voice-over sounded a LOT like Cumberbatch.

[taksraven]

I see CHEMTRAILS coming off the Millenium Falcon!!!! OH NO!!!!!!

[chowyunskinny]

I don't think this guy is wearing enough pieces of Rebel flair.

[peter]

Wife brought up an interesting point, said it reminded her of a scene in DYRL.

[renegadeleader1]

so any fans hardcore enough to remember their aurabesh want to take a shot at translating what's on the pilots flight vest?

[Kelsain]

According to someone @ TheRPF, it says "pull to inflate" upside down so the wearer can read it.

[skullmilitia]

It's not wedge, so not interested! Lol

[505thAirborne]

Wife brought up an interesting point, said it reminded her of a scene in DYRL.

The scene from DYRL came to my mind immediately, I think I watched the trailer 8 times just for the Fighters over the water alone!

YYYYYYYYYYYYEP!!! Was just about to make that point myself......

[ron5864]

Hope Kakizaki is not flying one of those X-wings in that scene. Because we know what will happen next.

[skullmilitia]

Wouldn't be funny, if one of the X-wing pilots is making fun of the other over a girl...
You'd be the only person in the theater to get it, but still haha.

[azrael]

I don't think this guy is wearing enough pieces of Rebel flair.

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that. I hope the Stormtroopers don't have any Imperial flair on their armors.

[skullmilitia]

This thread is full of haters...

[TangledThorns]

Kinda disappointed with the Star Wars teaser, looked fan made. That being said, it doesn't represent the final product. I remember seeing The Phantom Menace trailer thinking how cool it looked...

[taksraven]

I remember seeing The Phantom Menace trailer thinking how cool it looked...

Oh yeah, and the movie itself was FREAKING AWESOME, wasn't it??

[TangledThorns]

Oh yeah, and the movie itself was FREAKING AWESOME, wasn't it??

I paid to see it four times in the theater and again when it was released in 3D I hate myself.

[M'Kyuun]

That R2 droid is interesting...makes me wonder if it doesn't unfold into something more.

I liked what I saw in the trailer; it feels suitably Star Warsy to me, so far as the look of the film goes. I hope the script and acting are good, as those will raise it far and above the Prequels. I personally prefer the OT inspired designs here, as the Prequel designs never really felt authentic to me, despite being chosen by GL himself. Anyway, we have a year to go, so it's a bit early to pass judgment on a few visuals that may be tweaked before the final release.

I've avoided searching out stuff about the film purposely, as I want it to be as fresh as possible, so this trailer and the pics that Abrams posted a while back are all I've seen. Nothing about either has raised any alarm bells yet. My optimism abides.

[Jefuemon]

Combined for your Tweeting/Facebooking needs. Captions at your own expense.

[Chronocidal]

Eh, X-Wings look fine, except for the wings... it just throws the entire design out of balance having the wings those shapes. They were never meant to be aerodynamic in the first place, but it just looks bad to me having them not be symmetrical. Call it OCD, or whatever, but I think the wings just look terribly thought-out that way. Pilot gear looks similarly bad (that helmet is just baaaaad), and the fact they're still using those dumb Episode IV targeting computers makes me cringe considering how many more advanced things we've seen in the movies that were supposed to take place 60 years ago.

Hopeful for the movie in general, but I'm really worried they're going to do exactly what Into Darkness did.. cram in every single possible reference they can to the original content, twist it in some way that may or may not make sense, and hope it holds together into a new story.

Changing things just so they're barely different is a good way to both accomplish nothing that makes sense in-universe, and simultaneously kill anyone's nostalgia by making it just different enough that people don't like it anymore.

I see CHEMTRAILS coming off the Millenium Falcon!!!! OH NO!!!!!!

Nah, those are just midichlorians leaking out. (Jedi on board, obviously).

[anime52k8]

Maybe the little head part is actually the entire robot, and it's just rolling around on a soccer ball.

[David Hingtgen]

Nope, it's a soccer-ball droid, and it's just carrying the head of a rival around up top, like a trophy.
