Bilbo 3,709 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 To be honest, I think it was a mistake to make any of the old cast the leading roles in this film. They should be supporting roles like Alec Guinness in the first one. My only fear for this movie was that it would become a nostalgia fest rather than launching Star Wars for a new generation.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 And I've heard Han Solo has been written to be the lead of the movie. Is this the first time that the lead and central character of a SW movie isn't a Jedi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Well he had Force powers, otherwise the Jedi Council wouldn't have employed him.Han Solo doesn't have Force powers, so Ep7 makes the first SW flick that doesn't have a Force sensitive bloke or sheela as the lead/central character.

nightscape94 965 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Abrams and Kennedy should just employ the Chewbacca Defense.This is the inherent issue with locking in, and marrying yourself to, a release date before the film even starts filming, or even before pre-production. Iger has about as much mobility as Ford's leg right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datameister 2,044 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 The actual Hamill quote in the article is, "I have this feeling that no matter what we do there’s going to be a faction that really is disappointed. You just can’t live up to that." Which is pretty much factually true for any given sequel/prequel/reboot/spinoff/whatever. There are gonna be people who think it sucks, and there are gonna be people who love it. I just hope I'll be fortunate enough to align myself with the latter.

King Mark 3,631 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 yeah, he's right anyways. I like him better to say this candidlyI mean poor Mark Hamill, he hasn;t done anything in the past 25 years, now he's suddenly the most scrutinized actor on the planet and he must bear the expectations of billions of Star Wars fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 If this does turn out to be a good movie then the faction that will undoubtedly be 'disappointed' and claim it 'sucks' will be those who watch every single preview trailer/clip (there will be LOADS near release, a carefully managed drip feed), pour over every single image and scrutinise it all to within an inch of its life till they practically know how the movie plays out before they even see it. They'll be the ones. And they will be many in number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 The film is already a success. It's a Star Wars film not directed by George. The odds of a Star Wars film being good are 50% if not directed by George, but only 25% if it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightscape94 965 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 This one won't even be remotely similar to the prequels stylistically or dialogue-wise, which are the two of the main issues (of many) with that trilogy. I'm confident in that at least. The acting seems relatively secure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
