Popular Post The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted October 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2019 PROS - love the locations (i.e. jungle planet, iceberg mainly) - Adam Driver for the win - that shot of Leia hugging Rey, although already seen, will always get me - Rose, who I'm glad is getting her takes, and with Dom Monaghan in the background no less - the Death Star ruin battle looks terrific (you can see Rey and Ren standing in the Emperor's throne room!) - the visuals look amazing, a real step-up for Abrams methinks - liking the costumes (I want one of those winter overcoats) CONS - that space battle feels way too big - I'm really skeptical about Palpatine's involvement at this point, it feels like he's about to veto what the last two movies were setting up for in a really awkward way - practically no mention of Hux at all in the marketing, save for one photo from Variety - as @Disco Stu said its looking suspiciously like that Reddit leak was pretty well and correct, which is unnerving (see the moment where Rey and Kylo smash that object in the white room) - all in all way too much for me to take in at first glance, and kind of switches tones from the material we've seen thus far to being much more Palp-centric, if that massive Stardestroyer fleet is indeed his CONSENSUS Gosh, I love Star Wars I really do. Unfortunately this trailer is more of a head scratcher than an excitement creator, but that's how it always is the first time around. Cannot wait for the score, and the movie is welcome too.

Edmilson 7,393 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I really liked C3PO's line to them, very emotional and thrilling. The marketing campaign should invest more on that. Movies whose marketing make sure is the end of an epic saga usually break opening weekend box office records: Return of the Jedi, Return of the King (first movie to earn more than 200m worldwide on its opening weekend), Deathly Hallows Part 2 (biggest opening weekend on US and worldwide at the time), Avengers Endgame (biggest opening on US, international and worldwide, and a lot of other records)... Not saying TROS will break Endgame's record, but... anything above TLJ's 220m domestic and 450m worldwide will shut the haters' mouth.

p0llux 392 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Good trailer. It looks like the film covers a pretty good range of locations and scenes.

The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 It's quite clear now that the Resistance and the First Order (or at least Kylo Ren) will have to team up against Palpatine, his army of born again Star Destroyers and possibly some FO factions (Hux?).

mrbellamy 6,272 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Visually this is more what I was originally expecting TFA to look like. I enjoyed the (relative) restraint and grounded design of that one, JJ Abrams obviously trying to replicate aspects of 70s/80s genre filmmaking. This looks less homage-y in that way and pretty much in line with the stylistic trends of 2010s special effects/action movies. I think it’s totally hilarious that John Williams is 87 years old scoring a movie with a trailer like this. toothless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chen G. 3,943 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I like the visuals. The third film of a trilogy (or the ninth of an nonet) has to have the biggest scope, hence the big vistas and the climactic space battle. But, the trailer didn’t help me understand anything about the film. Maybe it’s just me, but I like having a basic premise before I go into a film. Makes the trailer for The Last Jedi positively enlightening. Remco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Has it been revealed how they seem to have got Fisher to feature so prominently in this? Is it a simple rework of existing filmed assets or, or did they manage to successfully make contact with the Other Side and somehow shoot her new scenes within the spectral plane?
