Wycket 36 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 We have seen Ford acting for years, so we know what to expect. But the performances of Hamill and fisher may not be what one expects for Luke and Leia.I just want it to be dec 2015 already As long as Luke doesn't start going all Joker crazy and cackling than I think Hamil will be fine. He has been acting, albeit voice acting, consistently. Its Fisher and all her baggage that is the real wildcard. I saw her in an episode of Legit recently, and let's just say, I have big worries about her. Hopefully she'll be used sparingly and JJ keeps her in check.

Matt C 455 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 I'm just curious why JJ is still casting this movie. I think he's too picky on who he wants, and he doesn't want to pull the trigger until Kathleen says "JJ, it's now or never. You gotta make offers for who you want."

nightscape94 965 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Parkour? It seems almost too much of a modern fad to fit in anywhere, might look weird and distracting in the Star Wars universe. While we're at it maybe the cantina band has moved onto dubstep at this point in the future.

Jay 37,373 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Haha, I like this comment on that articleStar wars for a long time had 3 movies, and was 100% good as a series. Then they made 3 more and it became 50% good. If Episode VII is bad, then it will be a series with more bad entries than good, and each subsequent episode and spinoff film Disney makes that is a dud will further dilute that. HOWEVER, I'm really getting the sense that JJ and his team are giving this all their effort and the best possible intentions, and I feel the force may in fact be strong with this new movie. Everything so far that they've released has made me more optimistic. The script is the big question mark, but it seems possible that this might end up being great! Here's hoping.

Meh...I'm assuming his background will be used similarly to Ray Park's in TPM, and that was one of the good things about that film. These skills could be used to help create an unusually nimble hero or villain. Doesn't have to look like modern parkour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmmusic 1,839 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Leaked Star Wars Episode VII Filmset Footage! Looks like the Story of Star Wars plays on Earth too in the next Episode. I took these pictures on my Flight back from the States to Germany at the Frankfurt Airport. Seems like the biggest german airport plays a key role as an imperial starport in the new episode -- there have just been imperial forces at the scene.Maybe the Rebelboys hide in Berlin... :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The long proud history of X, Y, A, B, and T-Wings, among others, disagree with you. But I'll just pat you on the head, kid, for your clever insistence.

Wojo 2,453 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 The A/SF-01 B-wing heavy fast attack starfighter, known simply as the B-wing starfighter, was one of the largest and most heavily armed starfighters/bombersin the Rebel Alliance's fleet. The name B-wing came from the craft's remote similarity in appearance to the lowercase letter "b", although its swordlike shape in attack mode has earned it the nickname "blade-wing", which may be another reason for the "b" prefix.The official Star Wars Twitter feed "confirms" it is an X-Wing instead of a Z-95 Headhunter.
