I'd say the earlier point was that there is still hope for a series that has been going on for a while can still have quality sequels. I haven't gotten to see Last Jedi yet, but I loved Rogue One, and there is plenty of wargame potential in that film. The franchise won't have the same effect at 47 as it did at 6, but I can still get a taste of that sense of wonder.

I'll invest Solo w the same hope! :)

And if there is another Mad Max done a la Fury Road, count me in!!! Just watched it again today. Pure genius.

I find that I actually like Star Wars stories more when they're not focusing on Force-users with their hokey religions so this certainly is looking to be very promising.  :)

Plus I do have a decent lot of those old pre-painted Star Wars figures waiting for an excuse to come out...

I really have no idea what I'm doing.

A lot of being an adult seems to involve politely pretending not to notice the elephant in the room.

There's an elephant in the room?  I noticed a green thing in a jar behind the singer in the gold dress, but no elephant. I'm going to look harder next time.

Not too sure about the monorail thingy but I suppose it depends on the context  :)

Just for the coolness of it - and it is cool, isn´t it?  :D I love it - a goods train on a roller coaster!!!

I wonder why nobody hasn´t mentioned that extraordinary sound/music yet. It is really outstanding from the usual orchestral SW soundtrack. It screams ACTION!!! to me. I have watched the teaser seven times now. Five times were for the sound.

I loved the new characters in Force Awaken, found half the plot lazy and trite, hated Rogue One, ultimately disliked Last Jedi.... So.... I have zero expectations at this point. I cetainly wont rush to the cinema unless word is that is amazing.  To be perfectly honest I think th fact that there are Lucasfilm staff running the show, who were Georges yes-men and enablers on the prequels, is a bad thing.  I really would prefer to see them shuffled off with george, give the property to someone else.

It certainly looks interesting enough to me to go and see. If it's anywhere near as enjoyable as I found Rogue One then it'll be worth it (to me at least). It may well give rise to some new models too.

I didn't see an elephant either. :D

The full trailer is on line now. However good or bad it turns out to be, I'm sure it will inspire more SW games which can only be a good thing. ;D

Okay... remember when we used to laugh at Alf Garnett/Archie Bunker/Alfred Tetzlaff (whichever works in your part of the world) and his rants about how the world wasn't like it used to be... that's where this thread is going.

I’ll give it that, it certainly is cool (and a fair amount of potential both modelling and game wise). Now you mention it, the soundtrack does seem very good  :)

Proper trailer looks bloody good as well  :D
cheers

There's an earlier trailer with some other scenes:

I wonder how Don Glover will do as Lando.

I was left feeling very underwhelmed by the trailer. I'll still see it though.
