No one asnwered my question about what was good about the trailer. Which says it all.
I think it mostly says no one here wants to engage with a troll so charmless most people refuse to believe you could be anything other than a regular's unamusing sock. But sure, go on pretending you're that One Brave Voice railing against the new Star Wars film.

Is there any way we can replace Raccoon Tanuki's posts with animated gifs of Jar Jar Binks' comical antics?

Star Wars in itself is a blunt story, so maybe I'm now expecting too much. the representation of evil for evil's sake is unnuanced and lacking in subtlely or depth. The best films don't show simply "evil" characters, they show the roots of evil, greed, ill will, delusion. It's funny with the Yoda buddhist influence in the prequels (fear leads to anger ...) non of it was present in the originals. Just, here's a bad guy, and here's good guys. This is inherent in western filmaking and thinking, eastern films consistantly show people as neither good nor bad, but obviously complex yeah. Haha!

The dumb story was never a big problem to me though as it was cool enough in other ways to get away with such poor shallow writing. However, now it's not. JJ Abrams isn't a smart enough film maker.

How does propulsion on the falcon allow for that sort of steering within a planet's gravity? All of the thrust is in the rear, isn't it?
Not sure how it would even turn in zero-g actually.

I liked them. Visually, what more SW fan looking for?. the 1st one and the 3rd anyway. Acting from Hayden C in 3rd was sketchy at best but still, good flick.
― Raccoon Tanuki, Saturday, 29 November 2014 20:01 (nine years ago) link
but since when did bad acting ever stop SW being loved?

With current technology, they need to make a version of that dispenser that plays a sample of C-3PO saying "oh my!" whenever someone, er, pulls off a piece.
