Matt C 454 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I wish Lucasfilm and Disney would announce who's actually cast in the damn film now. I'm tired of Abrams playing the Mystery Box trick on every single film.I get they want to keep key elements secret until the film's release... but c'mon, at least confirm Hamill, Fisher and Ford's involvement now.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 The thing with big budget effects film like this is that the pre-production and particularly the post production phase takes a hell of a lot longer then the actual shooting.The pre-production is about setting up what needs to be shot and where, set design, costumes etc and a huge amount of meticulous planning and scheduling. Because once the actually start filming things get very expensive. And ofcouyrse post production is where (in this case) the actual film is made.

Joe Brausam 214 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 So despite some of the reservations that we may have regarding this...is anyone else just really excited that a new Star Wars movie is going to be filming in 4 months?

mstrox 6,651 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Even if they included a character from that game, it would not make the entire game "canon" - the same as Coruscant's appearance in the prequels didn't make the Thrawn trilogy canon.

The prequels felt bad because they failed to touch and inspire an entire generation the way the originals did. Don't get me wrong, they're far from the worst films ever made. There's just no comparison between the trilogies in terms of emotional resonance. Sure, there'd be people criticizing the originals if there'd been an internet in 1977, but they still would have stood the test of time in a way that the new films can't and won't. And this comes from someone young enough that I hadn't seen any of the Star Wars films until 1999!I liked the first one but if this is going to have better music(the first one(ESBscore) was just a REBOOT) then I will be happy.A better score than ESB?

There are even many younger people who prefer them to the old trilogy or parts of the old trilogy. On this board the more old school starwars fans (sometimes old trilogy worshippers) seem to be in the majority. I love the prequels as well as the old trilogy.
