Star Wars 7 shit talk

Kinda hope he just plays Ming and blows up everyone.

Low-key as fuck. This is looking promising.

i think jj abrams is mostly terrible but i'm looking forward to it nonetheless, at this point. also since the only role in which ford has shown a pulse in recent years was indiana jones (despite the movie being terrible), i'm thinking he'll have good times with the role. mostly looking forward to hamill though.

no jesse plemons :(

oscar isaac <3 <3 <3 weeeeeeeeeeeee v exciting

suckers

lol get 'em shakes

seriously you guys never learn

"thank you sir may I have another!" etc

shut the fuck up dude

your point was made about 1000 posts ago, we got it. thanks.

you will never be 7 years old again, move on

jon 99% of fuckin' everybody is on your side about how anything star wars is automatically awesome and how anybody who doesn't LOVE IT, FOREVER, IT'S THE BEST is lying to themselves and to God, I think you can handle one person being honest about how JJ Abrams directing a bunch of unfathomably wealthy aging actors in the new Star Wars sounds good maybe only if you've already decided you love it no matter what

aero, don't put words in mouth. i've not decided to love it, i'm, at best, cautiously optimistic. i'm just tired of shakey popping in with every news update to hammer the same point he's already made 100 times before.

also just wtf about your post in general aero, i've never said anything remotely resembling that.

yeah its like we get it. its prob not gonna be good. may we still talk about it without being lectured by a guy who tbh sounds more like a 7-year-old than anyone else in this thread

sorry jon that was over the top I didn't realize shakey did that every time there's news. cut it out shakey. if you had saved your ire for a day like today it might have carried some weight, jj abrams is directing the new star wars is a real opportunity for "wow, people are gonna go see this, eh?"

is Kasdan in that photo?

interesting that Lucas isn't.

he's hiding in the r2d2

yeah i was unecessarily aggro with my "shut the fuck up", but shakey's got absolutely nothing new to add to his "lol you guys are suckers" schtick at this point. and hey, this is very likely going to 98% garbage, but i have a 2 1/2 year-old that is already wide-eyed with glee at the previews for the new Disney animated series and the thought of experiencing one of these flicks in the theater with him, no matter how garbage, has me pretty excited. forgive me for offending everyone's superior taste tho.

Episode 7 prequel:

haha

Pretty sure everyone here has already seen the prequels, realized they aren't 7 years old, and the most starry eyed fanboy has written off Star Wars at least a decade ago.

Let's not lose track of the fact that George Lucas not writing dialog already means these flicks will automatically be 12% more watchable than the prequels.

Fwiw i was so burned by "The Phantom Menace" that I avoided seeing the other 2 until they were in the dollar theater. And at $1, "Attack of the Clones" is actually a riot.

this will of course be "better" than the prequels but since it won't be the totally uncompromised auteurist daydreams of a stunted hack with infinite money it will just be meaningless candy instead of one of the most singular cinematic artifacts ever. fuck competence imo

My son is going to be 7 when this is released. Looking forward to this specifically because of that fact.

not that there's anything wrong w candy it's just that attack of the clones is forever.

^^^ otm, mine will be too young for the first one still, but Episode 8 should be really fun.

(xpost)

think I'm gonna do a rewatch of the OG's soon

I'm feeling the love

just puttin the shit in shit talk fellas

Episode 7 prequel:

uh-OH

So, Daisy Ridley is playing Han and Leia's daughter? And Serkis in mo-cap, obv.

Star Wars is kind of like Christmas in that it's this thing that you really, really liked as a kid but becomes this lame and ridiculous thing as an adult that you kind of feel forced to participate in, but then suddenly you have kids and it becomes something you look forward to, despite all the commercial crassness and cheap plastic toys

I hope Max Von Sydow plays a kind, wise man who turns out to be evil in the third act

Is Chewie going to be all grey-furred?

who are those geezers in the chairs *behind* the readthrough?

mark hamill spilled something all over himself didn't he

odd, dude on the left facing camera looks like hamill a bit too

would be dope if all episode 7 trailers/promo materials were in full color then the whole film is in black and white

who are those geezers in the chairs *behind* the readthrough?

the sons and daughters of some very well-connected people

nevermind wrong guy

Gleeson's probably a Skywalker.

strange they didn't cast all three John Glenn Singers, but I guess Timbo is too Hayden Christensen.
