BloodBoal 7,538 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Hmm, okay. Not even a little teaser poster? So, we'll probably see the trailer in late September or some time in October. November seems rather late. It seems obvious that we won't hear any music (aside from trailer music) until the soundtrack the released.Yeah, November would be too late. I think we can probably assume that it'll be around the release of one of the next IMAX movies. Either Everest (9/18), The Walk (9/30) or Crimson Peak (10/16)Maybe they'll attach a trailer to The Force Awakens in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 The bad guys outfits of the original trilogy where inspired by Nazis... this one seems to be a little Mao-esque!I thought the costume design of the Imperial officers in the OT was inspired by the Imperial Japanese uniforms of the Second World War.The OT designs were a little more subtle. This looks so blatantly Eastern inspired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,715 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 And we never got to see the storm troopers on parade grounds like that in the OT. The closest scene is when the emperor arrives but it is not quite "reviewing the troops" moment.I think it looks rather cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,319 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Weird that we've only seen one character holstering a lightsaber in the entire movie. I'm curious if the raw, reddish, primitive style of Kylo Ren's is just for his or simple a re-interpretation over the stupidly clean and boring sabers that Lucas inflicted upon us in the prequels. It seems to be attempting to replicate the imperfections of the OT sabers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrox 6,651 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Almost all of the marketing imagery has taken place on Jakku. Without anything to go on but the official info, I get a real feeling that the majority of what they're releasing is from the first 1/4 or 1/3 of the movie (to preserve story secrets, etc).

mrbellamy 6,291 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Can't wait to see what Williams has in store for this sequence. It'll be interesting to see how that whole Jakku section plays out, in general. Seems pretty lengthy and involved from everything we've seen...that's gotta be some serious make-or-break time for this new incarnation of SW, introducing all those new characters, establishing relationships, getting the conflict going with (probably) the first major setpiece and somehow bringing the Falcon back into it. I'm sure Williams has a huge part throughout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look like modified AT-AT, at least the legs do.I'm sure there were explicit instructions by JJ to the artists that anything remotely resembling the prequel trilogy would be discarded, resulting in immediate termination.
