That trailer looks way better than the trash that is this series except ep. V.

Abrams the god

 

[hybridsoldier23]

That light saber hilt is garbage

What is the purpose of that?

I was thinking that maybe they're using a really volitile synyhetic crystal and it has to expel energy like vents.

 

[thejet]

can't wait for the real thing man. Trailer got me pumped.... went straight to the gymmmm 

 

[Kimchi Papi]

Well if by episode 6 all the Sith are to have been gone, it could be this new light saber that was constructed was a bit primative because it was a lost art if you will.

Did some digging around now that his trailer is out & found this image of the person wielding the light saber. Put it in spoiler form as to not ruin anything for those that don't wanna know...

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Supposedly Adam Driver's character... Revan?!?! :x :x

Sunshine, get the hell out of this thread. You are not coming in here to trash the series every other post. You are not welcome in here, you will not be the irritant you are in the comic thread(s). Be gone.

 

[Sinner]

I haven't been in here in a long time on fears of seeing spoilers, but gotta step in for the teaser!

DAMN... great hearing those sound-effects again!  And the subtle probe droid at the beginning...

Eh never been a Star Wars fan at all, but I did like Abrams new Star Trek movies, looks a lot like them so I'll be forced to go see it cause the gf is a huge nerd.

 

[sunshineblotters]

Nah. I'll express my opinions if I want to and this series is trash. But this film looks real good.

*putting on super nerd glasses* but......That ain't Wedge, it's Zev Senesca (red 2) and he died in the AT-AT battle.

This is Wedge

 

[Kimchi Papi]

LMAO, I'll rep ya jaypesoz when my limit expires.


Did anyone know the actor that played Wedge is Ewan McGregor?!?! He also turned down the change to replay his character apparently...

Wedge Antilles Won't Return For 'Star Wars: Episode VII' Because Denis Lawson Is 'Bored' By It
The Huffington Post | By Matthew Jacobs

We spent the better part of two years waiting to see if Princess Leia, Han Solo and Luke Skywalker would star in "Episode VII," but it turns out J.J. Abrams attempted to tap into the much deeper well of characters from the original "Star Wars" trilogy. Denis Lawson played top-notch Rebel Alliance pilot Wedge Antilles, and this weekend he revealed that Abrams approached him about reprising the role in the forthcoming movie.

"I’m not going to do that," Lawson told The Courier in the U.K. while promoting "The Machine." "They asked me, but it just would have bored me."

Tough break, J.J. Abrams. Of course, there's no indication of how significant Wedge Antilles' role would have been in "Episode VII." Despite being a minor character in the original trilogy, he remains a beloved "Star Wars" figure, having saved Luke's life during the Battle of Yavin in "A New Hope" and led the fighter attack on the Death Star in "Return of the Jedi."

Coincidentally enough, Lawson's nephew is Ewan McGregor, who played Obi-Wan Kenobi in the prequel trilogy. Still, the family ties, not to mention a film on which George Lucas serves as a creative consultant, weren't enough to lure the actor back. Since "Star Wars," Lawson has starred mostly on British programs, including the BBC's 2005 "Bleak House" miniseries and alongside Ben Whishaw in the miniseries "Criminal Justice."

I only knew off the bat because I used to have a replica of Wedge's helmet in my collection

 

[Sinner]

Wedge won't return? Awwww man.

 

[big j 33]

Teaser was pretty great.

Couple shots of the new people, the Falcon, the bad guy, just enough right now.
