droid on football and standard jj abrams wobblycam give cause for concern. would say the rest looked promising but i know from long bitter experience you should never ever ever ever ever get your hopes up based solely on a trailer.

It's like poetry, they rhyme.

Not gonna lie, that money shot of Falcon v. TIE fighters with the main theme playing made my heart skip a beat. From the brief flash the new Stormtrooper armor looks pretty badass too.
Abrams clearly a very different director, based on those shots, than anyone else in the series so far.

If there's any reason to be optimistic, it's the presence of Boyega.

Forest/lightsaber thing made me go "Game of Thrones?"
And the narration can't match Ian McDiarmid for creepily voiced scenery chewing.
Guess we'll see!
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 November 2014 15:52 (nine years ago) link
That's the only false note, really. Overall my stupid brain is quite excited.

looks more promising than any of EPs 1-3 so far so good

That lightsaber looks like it could do more harm to the person holding it.
Liked most of the other stuff though, promising.

countdown to the first 'Top 10 Things Wrong With The New Trailer' piece in 3.. 2.. 1..

SOUNDED incredible too (in 720 on YouTube)
and yeah light saber thing was dumb/unnecessary.
― pursuit of happiness (art), Friday, 28 November 2014 15:56 (nine years ago) link
You all are making it seem like spring snakes flew out of the light saber with a "boi-oi-oi-oing!" sound effect.

Me being me I'm already thinking "Well it's a hilt to catch another lightsaber so I can see why and" *wibbles*
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 November 2014 15:59 (nine years ago) link
Maybe it's to reduce the number of hands being chopped off.
― jmm, Friday, 28 November 2014 15:59 (nine years ago) link
I guess we shouldn't have expected any less from Darth Spring Snakes tho

Supposedly the narrator is Cumberbatch.
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 November 2014 16:00 (nine years ago) link
Test audiences must really have loved him as Smaug

That was Oscar Isaac flying the X-wing, right?

**POSSIBLE SPOILER**
Thinking that tall lurching dude with lightsaber is Adam Driver's character who's supposed to be some rich kid colector of Sith artifacts. Could be an ancient lightsaber design?
― Acid Hose (Capitaine Jay Vee), Friday, 28 November 2014 16:06 (nine years ago) link
xpost Fans are saying it's Luke's buddy Wedge from the first flicks.
Doubt it Ned. There was a fake trailer with his voiceover from Star Trek 2

Looked pretty cool. Why would someone make a lightsaber with little laser blades by the handle? Lose a lot of fingers that way.
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 28 November 2014 16:17 (nine years ago) link
It's be good if Driver's character makes a lightsaber like that cos he thinks it's cool and then he slices his hand off the first time he tries to use it

Soccer droid is totally breaking the fourth wall.
― jmm, Friday, 28 November 2014 16:19 (nine years ago) link
wedge is not in ep 7, he turned down the role
that has to be isaac surely
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 28 November 2014 16:19 (nine years ago) link
Be great if in this Star Wars world they had to ban lightsabers because too many kids were losing fingers. The Lawn Darts of a long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away.

Goosebumps moment for me was seeing the X-Wings fly in low over the water
Still my favorite starfighter design
― 龜, Friday, 28 November 2014 16:26 (nine years ago) link
Yeah the water spray was a decent touch.

It'll be so weird if this turns out to be good. Star Wars. Good. In my lifetime.

15 years after watching them for the first time the phrase "Lose Tiree, lost Dutch, they came from behind" still pops into my head from time to time
― 龜, Friday, 28 November 2014 16:36 (nine years ago) link
Hope they keep the sort of 70s modular, low-tech grunge approach to any new technology introduced
Hated the sleek all in one monopod approach of the prequels
An X-Wing is not an iPod

I dunno, I sort of feel they should get over Tatooine.
