Rumor: Star Wars: Episode VII Main Hangar Description?
Jason Ward from MakingStarWars made another thorough description this time of an Imperial main hangar supposedly seen from an Episode VII concept art…
Excerpts from Making Star Wars
The Death Star hanger was just a rectangle with a band of light around it. That concept is used here in this new hanger but imagine a hexagon about the same size. The whole hanger itself is a hexagon instead of a rectangle box like the old hangers.
The interesting thing is that in this piece walls have spaces in between the light panels in such a way that allows TIE Fighters to sit in the space for storage. The TIES are stacked four high. They are not directly on top of one another either as they follow the shape of the walls so they kind of staircase, if you will. So it goes one TIE on the floor and then three more TIEs following the arc of the wall in a staircase fashion.
At the time of this piece, the villain for the film wasn’t yet finalized. So that figure walks with Stormtroopers towards the shuttle, I presume. The bad guy and his escort are at the entrance of the hanger, just walking in. The ceiling to the hallway area has little red lights, but the hanger inside is illuminated by the classic white lights we’ve seen in Death Star hangers.
For the full piece got to Making Star Wars
And here are some pictures we posted before that fit with Jason’s description:

Hope there will be no Death Star III in Episode VII….
It has been 35 years, we should be up to Death Star 12 or 13 by now.
haahahahahahaha you’re completely right!
Hmmm, let’s see:
original cast,
McQuarrie-inspired everything,
junky X-wing fighters,
so-called ‘practical effects’ employed…
…how can there NOT be a Death Star III with the way things are going???
Maybe it’s a Trade Federation star ship!
Bring back a the hung gungans!
It would be great if all the Empire rumors was false and we get surprised with a new enemy faction and/or antagonists. I would prefer a smaller group of antagonists, we don’t really need a massive conflict. Have it be more like Star Trek 2 The Wrath of Khan. Then you can have a big battle in 8 if it suits the story, then have smaller scale action in the third movie.
that is also my wish – no empire, no sith, but new bad guys
Hexagons are all over science fiction these days. I don’t know if Fanboy is going to like this..
?
??
This type of angular design has been a staple in sci fi even back to Flash Gordon and Buck Rodgers.
Round like interior of Falcon and rounded corners in Tantive IV threasholds are usually symbolic of good and safe also inviting like a smile, look at the hobbits front door or circular design of C3po = Welcoming.
The Hard angular design of the Empire’s thresholds are like Vader’s sharp stoic sophistication = menacing.
The Hexigons are mainly associated with bees, worker bees like the tie fighter rear or the Death Star port. Drones to say the least. Or should I say clones?
Octogons polyhedrons or whatever I still want to know about that damn cave entrance on Dagobah, a morphing vision or a relic of a temple or downed ship. That’s why I wish they left that cut scene of Yoda landing on Dagobah alone.
I just saw Rebels episode 3 Droids in Distress today ( two times lol ) and lemme tell you, you guys are in for a treat!
……?
to clarify, the rebels movie was technically 2 episodes put together. so the next episode is 3.

I was saying i saw the next episode early and i loved it!
the doors are octagons, not Hexagons. I’m still really skeptical about all the stuff coming out, especially from MSW
So these are pictures of sets on 4 and 6?
The first two are from ROTJ. The last three are from the forthcoming movie.
Yet another Good guys VS Death Star battle would truly be a bad idea.
HOWEVER, suppose they do have a 3rd death star? ‘Don’t know about you guys, but my assumption would be that the Death Star is on the Good Side.
Put it like this, Death Star is equivalent to the A-Bomb, it’s not automatically on the bad guys’ side.
Say you have a situation where Luke is on a planet that has been occupied by where he is trying to liberate the planet and destroy the badguy.
Meanwhile, Leia Solo is up on the Death Star arguing with a general, doing everything in her diplomatic power to keep the Republic Navy from vaporizing the planet.
General Ass: No Solo, the danger is too high, we must fire the Death Star’s cannons or else risk [villain’s] escape
Leia: no, there are innocent people down there, you MUST give Luke more time!
Loving the new X-Wings, can’t wait to see the new TIEs all up in there.
In some aspects it seems one of the Jedi Knight II Jedi outcast hangars…
Death star construction worker to another: is this the 3rd one we’ve built for these guys? Don’t they know that guy is gonna come blow it up again? Other death star construction worker: Jerry just shut up and pour the fuckin concrete.
Why can’t i go to the cantina site?.
Something revealed that ‘somebody’ didn’t want revealed, maybe?
DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE WHEN PEOPLE BLOCK ACCESS TO SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANNA KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where can i find Krism98’s Star Wars Blog?
#lurkers: I like it here – it’s like the fringe theatre. The guys in the cantina take themselves so seriously!
