STAR WARS: Episode 7 (All-Time #1 opening box office.) (2 Viewers)

[Andy Dufresne]

I've always had issues how something as important as The Force is so quickly forgotten.

The Galaxy is a big place. This is where the prequels screwed up though. Jedi counsel were prevalent and it wasn't that long prior to A New Hope.

But the Jedi were everywhere. Anakin on backwater Tatooine knew of them.

 

[17seconds]

The special effects look great, but the ad is missing that sense of joyful fun that was prevalent in the first 3 films (well, really the first two) and sadly missing in the newer 3. Hopefully the film itself will have it, because the ad looked as dark as that last Star Trek film, which also had very little joy in it.

I must have missed all the "joyful fun" in Empire Strikes Back.

Needs more Jar Jar farting

 

[El Floppo]

Kindof meh

The opposite of this.Is Williams doing the score? I liked that part especially.

Same.First I've seen of any of this reboot, and that had geek-bonered

Have you specifically stayed away from the first two teasers?

Yes. Had no idea that was going to happen

Was this the full final trailer?

It played like a long teaser trailer. Series of action shots, didn't reveal plot

 

[Yankee23Fan]

I hope this is good.

JJ loathes giving away anything. I think this is the last full size trailer we will get but we should see 2-3 TV spots from now until December that may show a few other scenes.

Because Uncle Owen couldn't stay off the sauce and would blab to Luke about his dad late at night.

 

[tonydead]

I must have gotten in right after AMC/fandango servers came back online. Locked up IMAX 3D for opening Saturday.

I know. I'm saying they screwed that up in episode 1. Now, by the time Jedi rolls around its just vader and rumors.

 

[Billy Bats]

Really glad they have early shows on the 17th, got four for the 8:30 showing.

You just type to hear the keyboard, don't you?

[dickey moe]

I came.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Really looks like Episode 3 Anakin fighting Finn there at the end

That's what life is, a series of down endings.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Looks like there's remnants of the Thrawn idea in this story.

Ren appears to be attempting to reconstruct empire. Finn is a trooper that wants out.

I wonder what Rey is looking for in the crashed Star Destroyer.

I sense something. A presence I haven't felt since ....

 

[Leviathan]

So, is that Vader's Apprentice?

 

[Andy Dufresne]

I also wonder what Kylo is doing to that one guy...getting information or stealing Force power.

me too...freaking painful tonight....how the heck every website wasn't taken off line and every server—including the international space station's—wasn't pointed at Fandango is ridiculous. Did they not expect this??

 

[skol asylum]

So the guy fighting Kylo Ren there at the end, that's gotta be Lando and Leia's love child right? He got the force from mom?

 

[skol asylum]

Oh, and i get chills watching this stuff.

 

[Billy Bats]

Spoiler

No apprentice, but it could be his grandson.

Well played.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Kindof meh

Honestly don't know how anybody who even mildly liked the originals as a kid couldn't think that trailer looked awesome.

People looking for something to hate.

Why not Starkiller? His "illegal" apprentice?

Good god, man.

Empire was kinda dark. IF by joyful fun you mean the stupid physical humor and annoying C3PO/Jar Jar banter that is prevalent in the other movies, I personally will take what I saw in this trailer any day. The joy for me from the trailer is seeing how good the action with the Falcon and X-wings look. So geeked for this.

Just curious what in that trailer somebody could think didn't look leaps and bounds better than what we got with the last trilogy.

Chills

I didn't see one cartoon charachter.

 

[cstu]

Could be the best one of all.

Spoiler

The curve in the hip area leads me to belive that it's possibly a female.

Spoiler

so is the idea that Adam Driver being cast (because that's definitely his voice) was just a fake out because everyone would assume that's him, when in reality they're just using his voice as the new James Earl Jones?" I'm not on board with this, just wondering if this is what you're speculating. Because you can hear that that's Adam Driver.

 

[AAABatteries]

9 tickets for the 18th!

Didn't go for 3D - will go back and see it a 2nd time in 3D for the kids but 3D does nothing for me most of the time - I think it's my defect not the technology.

Dunno...does Adam Driver have girly hips?

Anakin's Padowan (sp?) is female in the Clone Wars cartoon series. Sayin'...

Oh man. Awesome.

It seems like actual ACTING, with natural sounding dialogue and all. Thank jesus someone is rescuing this franchise.

 

[TripItUp]

I must have gotten in right after AMC/fandango servers came back online. Locked up IMAX 3D for opening Saturday.

same here, I did get Imax for Sunday

Would pay double for Thursday

 

[TripItUp]

Could be the best one of all.

The Battle on Hoth is one of the top ten cinematic moments of alltime...so if it matches even 15 minutes of Empire, we'll be good.

 

[HughHoney]

So Luke takes over the family business and goes to the dark side in this one, correct?

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Can you ####ing nerds stop buying up all the opening weekend tickets? I want to take my wife to see this on that first Saturday but I'm not sure if I'm going to be in Orlando or at the beach nor what time we'll be able to go. If it's sold out all day, I'm liable to end up wandering around watching her spend all my money on gifts for her giant family. So knock it off. TIA.

Can you blame him?

1. SW geeks are going to watch it regardless. Thus, no need to throw you anything but scraps because you'll be on it like a bum on a ham sandwich.

2. Casual SW fans (like me) get excited seeing Han, Chewy and Leia again & will take their kids to pass the tradition.

3. Plus, I get tired of seeing previews for movies, TV shows and what not that basically tell you 1-minute attention span people the whole plot.

Rock on, JJ.

 

[gump]

Had to go to bed early, got up and basically ran to my iPad to see the trailer...it's like I'm 12.

 

[Worm]

Went ahead and got tickets for Saturday night for me and my daughter. Reserved seating at the baller leather recliner theater.

Hate to give away this but.. Go to a small town near you that has theaters.. ..

The last 3 releases were sold out well in advance in the Twin Cities, yet my Dad and I walked up opening day and purchased tickets without any issues in our "small town".

I have a feeling that most theaters are going to commit a few extra rooms for this as the day gets closer. No reason to have less then a 1/4 filled room for some geriatric flick when people are clawing at the doors to get in

I imagine every theatre will be 50% Star Wars for the first two weeks. I'm sure they have contractual obligations to other studios to show their crap, but they'll find a way around that.

 

[Hang 10]

Good looking trailer but I refused to get tricked into buying the hype for another star wars movie.
