A24 4,326 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I didn't care for the film itself. Looks like what we've come to expect from Abrams. Frenetic running, yelling, explosions and a general lack of soul.Have you cared for anything made in the last 10 years?The last thing he cared for was The Ewok Adventure from 1984.

Wojo 2,453 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 There needs to be a lot of loud explosions in this movie. The Force will awaken. We don't want it to just sleep through the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,713 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I hear the Force is a light sleeper and even the tiniest sounds can wake it. So I assume it is wide awake when the movie starts. With all that talk and babbling about it in the trailers already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,301 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 It certainly won't be asleep as the movie starts. After all, the UK cinemas banned that Church of England commercial from screening before the movie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrox 6,647 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I don't think I'm going to watch the clip - or go out of my way to watch any more new commercials online. I don't consider them spoilers. since they're officially released information, but as I see more and more new stuff, I am afraid that they will be "experience spoilers" for me.

I'm guessing it's still about as tame as the others, I think they tend to add on something like "scary images" for more intense stuff like Revenge of the Sith, Pirates, LOTR/Hobbit etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Sci-Fi Action Violence?It's for the scene when Rey murders a village of Tusken Raide Desert Plunderers.

Jay 37,287 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I'm guessing its just for the blood in whatever scene causes it to get on his helmet. I expect the same bloodless blaster deaths otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 People whinge when most movies are rated PG-13 because it's supposedly pandering to kids.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 The prequels were honestly too violent, but no one will agree with me there. There's a guy getting cut in half, a bunch of decapitations, Yoda impaling a guy, then jumping on top of him and pulling his sword out like a psychopath and Anakin burning on fire.I had a feeling they were going to make this too violent and gritty. It should not be PG-13. The old ones weren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,272 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Yeah, but those movies predated PG-13. The first one I think would probably still get by with a PG today (just that one shot of the bloody arm that Obi-Wan slices off) but the sequels had their share of hacked limbs. Luke hallucinates decapitating Vader and then reveals it's his own disembodied head. Who knows what they would get these days, standards change. Back then these were considered PG scenes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will 2,215 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Not sure if this has been posted yet, but there's a new TV spot (we hear Vader's theme and the Force theme in the spot, but it's those trailer-y renditions -- this spot was clearly not scored by Williams):http://makingstarwars.net/2015/11/new-star-wars-the-force-awakens-extended-tv-spot-drops/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
