Interesting…
Loving these new Lego sets!
I Iike the new website update.
Me to
Looks like it’s Han flying the falcon in the trailers then
I hope that you are right. Nobody flies the Falcon like Solo. Also, he’s the only dude badass enough to mess around with Darth Vader’s daughter.
I don’t know what’s worse, jj’s use of practical effects or the new website layout.
Bring me back to 2002.
What’s worse is the fact that you think cgi is better than practical effects.
One is not better than the other. Truly great filmmakers know how to to mix the two to support each other. Fury Road is a great example of that.
True, I enjoy cgi when it’s used right, but some movies use too much of it and the quality decreases when there is too much cgi or practical effects.
A lot of the time people only notice the really bad CGI. If done right like using Fury Road again as an example you will never even notice it is there and it elevates the film.
What’s worse is that you know that what you just said can bring on a flame war for no reason. No discussions, just ‘this IS better’ or ‘that’s better’.
Well that’s interesting.
BTW shame that admins choose disqus! instead of integrating news section with Cantina.
Shame? Do you want to “integrate news section with Cantina”, because it’s not as easy as it sounds. We’ve tried to make our own comment system but it never had the desired result.
Maybe I choose wrong word. What I want to say is, that from my point of view if you have forum and a site, integrating both of them usually is best solution. By integrating I mean every news piece on site creates a thread in forum news board, and posts in said thread on forum are shown as comments on site.
Disqus! is usually on sites where there is no prominent forum, and in those cases it compensate for lack of it quite nicely.
And I know that this sort of integration isn’t easy (or cheap) job. Just something to keep in mind. 🙂
Believe me we’ve tried. We will try harder next year. 😉
Keep up the good work. 😀
the snowspeeder one actually means that the cool x-wings in formation shot takes place on the ice planet. It wasn’t obvious for me…
finally an actual comment section
New John Williams score from the movie? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1THb3YnMOY
The new site is looking good.
Excellent! …. so does this mean Chewie and Han are ON JAKKU??? hmmmm
By the way… loving the new site… but how do I post as my Cantina persona? Darth Flatus 73….. or can I not do that yet? Either way no biggie… glad there is no more anonymous bs 🙂
I just changed my profile name to match my Cantina account.
COOL… it worked THANKS!
Sweet. Disqus. I mostly like disqus.
Yes! The comment sections looks great. Disqus is a great choice.
Getting kinda of tired of trying to figure out the movie through toys. Love the upgrades to the site
This is not something intricate and troublesome. nice!
I have been using my disqus account for a while over at a site called Batmannews and have never had the least bit of trouble with it. I am glad they are incorporating it here.
Not liking that Marty mcfly hover board thing.
There’s a spelling mistake at the top of the opening page: ant_ologies – ‘h’ is missing.
Thanks
Welcome to Disqus, SW7NEWS!! This will be a terrific addition to this site.
Loved the mini-videos on the Lego site btw.
Never done the whole LEGO thing but I am really tempted to buy the Rey Speeder.
Anyhow great site so far… cheers! 1 more issue though!…. no Cantina link! we all have a shortcut to it I’m sure but new/casual people won’t know about it!
There is a forum link in the navigation bar
yup… works now…
when I posted that it was blank
Talon Karrde reporting in.
Oh Yeah! The site is pretty good!
Love the new layout!
Looks cool
Testing the comment system…
you are here !!!! I can’t belive it !!!
Comment section looks much more organised now, and people cannot hide under the mere “anonymous” option as prior. Makes for greater responsibility when posting. Just keep things moderated aswell though. Boards at theforce.net do a very good job when it comes to moderating posts.
I love it, you damn racist have to reveal something now. I love the site.
About time, right? I really think it’s only a few people under different ‘anonymous’ accounts.
Great new comment section. Lego videos were meh. Ha.
Finally my comments have a true name! =D
Awesome guys. Been finally you since about the 2nd or 3rd update. No lie!
Thank the force for the new comments section.
Love the new comments section but the new site does not render well on my iPhone 6. Constantly zoomed in. Maybe it’s me but maybe someone else has a similar issue.
Yes the new update looks way better and clean.
Does look good but it’s slow and I have to double click on links. Using iPhone 6 plus.
Yes, we noticed that issue. Working on it.
Yeah, I had the same thing (zoomed in to the left side of the page) on my Android (Samsung Galaxy SIII)
I like the new layout!
The new comments section LOOKS better, but it has serious problems with lags and freezes my browser way too often. And my computer is FAST…
I love the troop carrier. I had the original Ep4 one and I have never seen it since
Yay. Finally no more cyber anonymous cyber bullies.
My kids would love that millennium falcon. But I probably wouldn’t play with it at all… very much… all day.
I am unabashedly excited for another lego star wars game that will no doubt come of this
Oh yeah!
Great there is no hiding on the site now hopefully we can say goodbye to all the racism etc!!!!! Just bought Poe’s x wing I have one thing to say, get it!!
Finally i can join the discussion here,site looks awesome,Disqus is a good choice 🙂
As for the Videos i’m looking forward to seeing all these new Vehicles in the film,especially Kylo Rens ship,i think JJ and the design team have done a great job in that regard
hmmm… Jakku looks a lot like Tatooine.
Yea. If Jakku needed to be another sand planet, couldn’t JJ have made it a white or brown sand rather than the exact same yellow sand of Tattooine?
Or hell. ..it could’ve even been green or purple sand, the possibilities are endless for what a planet could look like. Why show us something we’ve already seen and give it a new name? It’s asinine really.
Exactly! I was hoping to see something more tropical-looking in the future unlike anything we’ve ever seen in Star Wars it it there is a tropical planet that exists already, just give it some screen-time if it hasn’t gotten any before or if it has, more screen time.
Ep 7 = rebooted Ep 4
Thanks for the Disqus switch, folks. It was becoming very difficult to read the comments here knowing I would be constantly inundated with sexist, racist, and homophobic posts.
