Star Wars VII Discussion Thread (was: Star Wars new trailer)

[Redmao]

This was definitely a good Star Wars movie.

[supervike]

This movie reminded me why I loved Star Wars in the first place.

Wonderfully entertaining.

Can't wait until we can discuss it more, without ruining it for others!

Hurry up and see it everyone!

Any idea when that might be? Can we start a spoiler thread - though that does hold risks if people stumble across it....

[Agis]

I am all for a dedicated spoiler thread, if anybody stumbles into it, so be it!
As long as it is properly tagged as a spoiler thread all should be fine.

[olyreed]

Going tonight, cant wait!

[Momotaro]

Quote from WookieeLeaks:
"The rumor going around is that Max von Sydow plays a character named Lor San Tekka, a man in possession of information vital to the quest..."

just got back and I am not happy

This was not the movie I had hoped for. Unlike Mad Max's reboot this one left me damm cold and underwhelmed.

God I wish they had hit the brakes at Jedi and gone and did something else with their creativity.

I expect to be nuked from orbit for voicing my honest opinion but such is life.

Of course I will still say go and see it because everyone else on the planet will, I dont begrudge anyone that.

Thank the lord I'm not the only one who thought this, my initial reaction was 'That was alright' but it didn't exactly set my world on fire.  I am seeing it again as I might just need some time with it but I was hoping we'd get something new with this one not a re-hash of what came before.

[Agis]

when we can discuss it without screwing it up for someone else then I will clearly state my case regarding its full of fail state.

I am giving up on star wars and declaring the Scurvellian protocols in effect where every movie post Jedi never fucking happened in my personal SW universe. I'm sick of people pissing over my childhood memories of something special in order to make more money.

Oh my, so much Dark Side energy... 

[Elk101]

Hmmm enjoy it you did not!

[von Lucky]

So 'Caravan of Courage' is out Scurv?

[Vermis]

Just back from seeing it. I have to side with Scurv and Giger. (Guys, maybe we could form a society)

Was there a spoiler thread?

[Commander Carnage]

Finally saw it. It was OK. My guess if I was 10 again I would have been more impressed. It was clear where the movie was going for shock value. I liked the heroes but the villains sucked.
