ABC’s Special Star Wars: The Force Awakens TV Spot Arrives! Official IMAX Poster.
The newest Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens TV spot has finally hit the internet, showcasing a handful of new scenes in a minute-long advertisement – featuring a quick shot of Luke’s old lightsaber in action!
It’s worth noting that tomorrow will also bring something important with it – a behind-the-scenes featurette will be shown during Girl Meets World on Disney Channel. The marketing beast has been unleashed!
And this is a good place to share the official IMAX poster, that was revealed yesterday:

Grant has been a fan of Star Wars for as long as he can remember, having seen every movie on the big screen. When he’s not hard at work with his college studies, he keeps himself busy by reporting on all kinds of Star Wars news for SWNN and general movie news on the sister site, Movie News Net. He served as a frequent commentator on SWNN’s The Resistance Broadcast.
First shot of Ackbar, it’s a trap!
yesss, i felt some classic han solo in this trailer!!! cant wait to see this
BB8 got fuckeddddd uppp
I promised myself I wouldn’t watch any new spots/trailers. And now here I am watching this thing ten times in a row…
I saw people saying that sorta thing the other day in here and I was thinkin… you’ll all be watching same as me lol
Glad there aren’t any spoilers in this clip.
There are tons of spoilers.
I’m sorry guys, I just can’t help getting more hyped the more I see of the movie. Everything just looks so Dope.. and this new TV spot shows up 2 hours after I watched Episode 1 in bed, and I just feel nothing is the same.
No need to be sorry 🙂 I’m feeling the same way!
Hype hype
Also, the music just gets better.. I think we have a general Idea now of the music that will accompany Rey.. and the build-up of the orchestra is just perfect.
Storm trooper blocking a lightsaber?
I was thinking the same thing too. But not even that, since when has the “Empire…” Basically, ANY blaster weapon, been able to block/parry a lightsaber? An electrostaff or vibrosword I’d understand but a flamethrower being able to withstand a lightsaber is a little crazy. Not like you’d come across many of those during that era I would think…
I’m pretty sure that’s the new Riot Control Stormtrooper with some sort of electro-baton.
…
Mmm… Good call. I’m starting to lose count of the new or different iterations of stormtroopers there are now.
“Armed with specialized weapons, the First Order’s Riot Control Stormtroopers are trained to subdue crowds in the most ruthlessly efficient manner possible.”

Don’t forget the new Flame Helmet Troopers 😉
Flametrooper is my favorite of the standard troopers, Mainly due to how different it is. I hope we get new Imperial Guards in the next on or Biker Scouts.
doesn’t quite look like a blaster
Whatever it is, it almost looks like it’s holding a charge of some kind on the outside of the barrel. Maybe that’s what’s repelling the saber.
“There’s one! Set for stun…”
loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I may quote John Boyega
“Yep, yep, yep, YEP, YEP, YEP WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!” *jumps off couch*
He must be part one of the aliens from Sesame Street and part Tom Cruise.
Boyega is our man. The power of the hype was too strong even for him
https://www.facebook.com/JediNews/videos/891237477620962/?pnref=story
,,
So? They paid 4 billion dollars douche bag. I’ll give them some hype.
That scene with the black tie fighter escaping from the hanger is so cool.
Chewy needs to cover Han lol
They got Han coming out shooting and Chewy right behind him, needs to be the other way around.
Don’t Chewy know he rolling with an old man now?
Wondering if the beginning music is an actual new Williams theme or just more rent-a-trailer-composer music.
Yes, it is a new theme. I wondered the same.
Seems more rent-a-composer to me – not the same “quality” as the trailer’s music. I would like to think that beyond the first teaser, we’re not going to hear any real JW cues from the soundtrack until film’s release? Just a speculation though…
You mean the Harry Potterish stuff. Nah, they’re saving the score for release.
It seems totally new to me.
Pretty rubbish music. Definitely not Williams.
What are you talking about this sounds just like Williams. Lol
According to this article, we are listening to new music by John Williams
http://makingstarwars.net/2015/11/star-wars-the-force-awakens-tv-spot-features-new-williams-music-variety-confirms/
On the rewatch I think I see Akbar on the right in the scene with Leia and C3PO!
Ackbar! And Stormtroopers have lightsaber deflecting weapons now?!??! I keep telling myself I wont watch anything new but damn you JJ you keep pulling me back in!!!!
I dont bother to tell myself those sorts of things anymore, I know I’ll watch every snippet 10 times over for the next 5 weeks lol
Not like we haven’t seen that before.
Yeah but it looks like their guns are retrofitted to block lightsabers.
Rey’s walk towards Leia, possibly some kind of reconciliation.
just rewatched, not sure if those 2 scenes are actually connected, but not sure they aint either!
They’re not.
Oh come on, you don’t know that.
Actually, they could be
Or possibly just timid approaching on of the biggest celebrities / famous generals in the galaxy
Yeah maybe.
I have read the Entertainment Weekly articles, and it seems a possible plot is there. I think it is a pity we can wonder all this, a bit more mistery could be nice. POSSIBLE SPOILERS? As Rey is left by her family in Jakku when she was 5. I remember the character of Max Von Sydow was realted to her, but we have not heard about him again. Well I have imagined that Kylo and Rey are Skywalkers, Kylo was captured when he was a kid by the rebuilding empire known as First Order, and to hide her from them they leave Rey in Jakku. Then at the start of the movie First Order Stormtroopers appear looking for her, it is the moment when Han and Chew come to meet her (her family) after Finn and may be Poe had known her already. It could be a possibility, who knows?
Also it could be that they are playing with us in the trailers.
Quite the contrary. The editor was pissed because of their insistent control over secrecy. Said he’s never been denied full privy to a major cover story in his entire career [laughs.] It’s very apparent in the article(s) that they haven’t really revealed much of anything.
Really? Because I have the feeling of knowing too much already. The fact is that never before I had given this attention to a film before it was on screens :)… I think there is too much information about it! Probably one of the theories people is posting is the good one… so when I will go to watch the movie, small surprise.
Nice! I wonder if that new music is Rey’s theme?
At any rate, the most exciting shot for me was whatever that electrostaff blocking Finn’s saber was. Do stormtoopers have magnaguard staffs now? Or was that Rey saving a stormtrooper from being killed?
Lastly, Kylo’s line: “I will show them the Dark Side”. I wonder if he means that he will show them the temptation and make them join the dark side, or if he means I will show them the wrath and destruction of the Dark Side.
Many things to think about for the next 35 days…
Think by the dark side he means pain and suffering.
Yesm I believe that he is talking about wrathful vengeance. Remember the Jedi did Return in the last Episode, now it’s time for the Dark side to have its day. The new film will mostly be about the advance of the forces of evil against good and preserving the hope of the Galaxy amidst these events.
Awesome…BB-8 bee-boppin’ down the stairs…ACKBAR!…and a stormtrooper with an electrostaff. What’s not to love?
That it’s 30 odd days until the release.
Well there’s that… 🙂
And he’s got colors…
It’s going to be so funny seeing him try to come down the stairs. I hope C3P-O says some douchey comment about how dumb he looks
I pray to all the gods and Jar Jar himself that he doesn’t have rocket boosters. Oh please great big boss nass, please no rocket boosters!
I have to admit I always get distracted wondering how R2-D2 can roll across the sand/rock/jungle terrain.
Although it does add a bit of comedy to Threepio’s “it much too rocky”.
R2: Yeah, and you’re the one with legs and you’re clearly a wimp. I gotta roll over the stuff.
R2 has jets that can lift him if need be.
But they were removed for Episodes 4, 5 and 6. 😉
He’s like the evil midget bastard step brother of Johnny-5.
I hated that guy!
Good news! They are remaking it!
And I didn’t think we were going to see Poe’s sexy black x-wing until the climax but NOPE! Black squadren getting it done!
And no dialogue. They’re has to be a reason, but I’ve yet to figure it out 😉
what
We’ve yet to hear dialogue from Poe / or Leia for that matter.
We keep getting a few snippets here and there, but most seem to fall within the same few scenes. It will be amazing if 30 minutes into the film we’ve pretty much already seen everything in the trailers.
We’ll the film does have a rather simple scope, but I think you’re safe 😉
Yo that one shot with the falcoln skimming the desert looked exactly like it skimming the comet in ESB!
Really digging the new elongated tonfa/nightstick weapon the stormtrooper is using to block that lightsaber!
You can see the “baton” in this “Riot Control Stormtrooper’s” hand on this new toy: http://www.starwarsunderworld.com/2015/09/black-series-6-poe-dameron-and-first.html
If there are no Jedi anymore, why would stormtroopers be equipped with weapon that is able to block a lightsaber? hmmm.
My guess is that while it is able to block a lightsaber, it wasn’t designed specifically to block a lightsaber.
It could be a big menacing taser staff/cattle prod that the FO Stormtroopers use to subdue people.
Maybe it was made to defend against other energy weapons like vibroaxes or electroblades. Maybe it just happens to be made out of Phrik alloy (thank you woodipedia for confirming it’s canonization).
Maybe they use it to defend themselves against Kylo Ren when he gets pissed about something mundane 🙂
Well, I think we all know by now that the story is about everyone looking for Luke, including Kylo, so it makes sense he’d arm his squad of Storm Troopers with updated versions of the electrostaffs that were so effective against lightsabers in the Clone Wars. It’s also a nice nod back to one of the better ideas from the PT.
But not used in the Episodes 4, 5 and 6? So many continuity issues because of those shitty prequels.
While there’s no way I’m gonna defend the Prequels, I will say that Jedi were thought to be extinct by the OT, so no need to arm troopers with Jedi-fighting weapons, whereas in TFA, they are specifically hunting a Jedi. It’s all just wild speculation, but it does make some sense.
maybe stormtroopers are now trained in CQC.
They could just be general purpose non-lethal weapons… they may want Finn back alive at first, after all.
I saw Billie Lourd – she’s at the round table that Han, Leia etc. are at near the end of the clip – with blond buns – cool! I was wondering what kind of part she’d been given.
Probably an aide to General Leia.
President Snow has joined the Resistance?
I had the exact same thought! But the guy probably doesn’t actually look as much like Sutherland when seen more clearly. It would be pretty funny if Donald Sutherland IS in the movie, and they kept it a secret, though! LOL
Cool to see Han holding a lightsaber again and the fact that Kylo mentions using the dark side seems to suggest his role isn’t as “morally ambigious” as some believe.
Was he holding one? It looks like a blaster that he hands to Rey.
Yes it is the same one she uses in a earlier trailer.
I think its a blaster that he’s offering to Rey
that is a blaster the same one rey uses whilst fighting kylo in the trailer
Someone should mention that it was a blaster, not a lightsaber. 😉
Good call. I only watched it once before reading the comments, Wishful thinking but it would have been cool.
Remember Kylo does talk in a toy that he is Immune to the light.
Which I took to mean he considered himself above choosing sides kind of like how Darth Caedus started out. The fact that he uses the dark side makes it seem like he really is heir to the Sith or at least in this one.
Ackbar!
Allahu? 😉
I want that photo of Leia, Han, Ackbar, 3PO… in 4k to print it full size and hold it in my room.
Is it just me or does it look like Rey is about to be reunited with her
family at 0:47/ 0:48? And her mom (Leia) will turn around and see her
for the first time in a long time? Billy Lourde might also play her
sister.
She talks to BB8 about waiting for her family. And there she is walking in a room reuniting.. Just a guess 🙂
Same feeling with Leia being in shadow, at the center, backwards 🙂 This film is going to be freaking awesome.
Not completely convinced that Rey is the daughter of Han and Leia. The backstory is so weird. Dumping her on a desertplanet. Then come back and pick her up. “Hope you had fun” on this dustball. Lots of explaining to do. But soon we will know.
No, not much explaining because Rey was with Han in the Falcon before being forced down to Jakku. Leia believed all had perished when the Falcon went down. The 1st Order captures Han, Chewie and another leaving Rey behind. She was too young to know anything but her family would return one day. This is why she still has the Falcon.
That makes sense and would explain both Han’s and Rey’s absence. However, it’s just a rumor at this point.
I believe the rumor that has a solid backing in facts. I am sure that this is one of the more logical explanations on why Rey is on Jakku and why she has the Falcon.
It also explains the origin of Kylo Ren too. He was on board the Falcon too. He was given to the Red blades because he is force sensitive. The Red Blades as they are called in Rebels are part of the Dark Force Users from a Dark Force planet alluded to in Aftermath. I believe on the Dark Force using planet the others meet Supreme Leader Snoke who formed the 1st order and the knights of Ren.
It was mentioned somewhere early on that Rey was supposed to be trained by Luke, and his students were ambushed when he was away from the training center. The Knights of Ren slaughtered most of the children, but took Kylo to become one of them. Rey somehow managed to escape or something to that nature. How she ended up on Jakku would still be a mystery, but… Maybe the Vicar had something to do with saving her.
source?
I think pirates who are pursuing Han kidnap their ahip and their daughter. Thats why the Falcon is there, that’s why Rey is there.
So, stormtroopers don’t have lightsabers, but electric staffs. Very nice hint to McQarrie and also a way to understand why Finn can fight. I’m always certain that for the first time we will see a non force sensitive fighting with a lightsaber
Finn will probably be force sensitive, though not quite as strong as Kylo and Rey.
the excitement machine in full swing… and you lot were worried! Lets all hope we come out of the cinema smiling from ear to ear.
finn is looking badass with that lightsaber
Here’s my take. I have a feeling that Max Von Sidow’s daughter was Luke’s lover and this is why Sidow has protected and looked after Rey. “Rey, I am your Grand Pappy.” His daughter has planted the seed in him that the Empire and his life’s work were in vain. She leaves her father’s ship to begin a new life and meets a mysterious cloaked stranger with a robotic hand, in a cantina, with groovy jazz. His name is Luke Skywalker and he falls for the former imperial hottie. They have a baby. The First Order finds Luke (Snoke feels Luke’s presence) and attacks. The mother dies, the baby is rescued by Sidow, ala Obi Wan, and Luke barely escapes with his life. During the struggle Luke is overcome with anger. He loses control and tastes the dark side once again. He cannot forgive himself for putting his family at risk, just as he put his sister at risk during his battle with Vader. Seeing himself as a danger to those he loves he goes into hiding, communes with the force…and waits. Somehow all of that is in the opening crawl. Meanwhile, Sidow and Rey are stranded amongst the wreckage of the Battle of Jakku. Sidow grows to hate the Empire for the death of his daughter and Rey is not told of her father’s past, yet she feels something awakening within her. The New Order continues to ravage the galaxy, raping and pillaging and building big blowy-uppy things, and Luke feels the voices crying out and falling silent. When the First Order return to Jakku the loose ends are all brought together (because JJ), Han and Chewie and Mr. Spock are aboard one of the Imperial vessels. They escape. They meet Rey. Han “has a feeling” he knows the girl. A storm trooper goes awol and finds Luke’s light saber at a yard sale, because JJ. He meets up with Rey too because she is smoking hot. WELL, SHE IS! Von Sidow dies helping them all escape on the Falcon, ala Obi-Wan. Meanwhile, Han and Leia’s kidnapped son, who is strong with the force, has been brainwashed by the First Order and raised by a religious cult of neo-Sith Nazzis. His power is so much stronger than any Snoke has seen that he is groomed for something big and given the name Kylo. By the way, Snoke is actually Palpatine’s immortal master. The true “Phantom Menace.” Kylo follows his force sense and combs the Galaxy for Sith/Jedi relics. Star Wars yard sales have a lot of cool shit like that. He feels the conflict within but does not recognize why. He is desperate for answers, has great hair, and is, like, super angsty. His mother tries to commune with him via the force but her skills are weak. “Can you hear me now?” The female trooper Captain Phasma (who is Snoke’s concubine and likes to do it with the helmet on) has become a mother figure of sorts to Kylo, and does her best to keep the youth focused, but he grows increasingly unstable and strong. She fears him. Meanwhile, General Princess Leia Organa-Solo who is leading the resistance force (and is not on speaking terms with Han) is tracking the progress of a new super-duper-death-star-planet (many Bothans died to…) and launches a full scale war on the New World First Order. When all is about lost Han swoops in and says, “Let’s blow this thing and go home.” Han and Kylo meet during this battle. Han, who has bonded rather quickly with Finn, is mortally wounded just as Luke appears. Luke is handed his old lightsaber and whoops Kylo’s ass. Kylo cries like a bitch, snaps out of Snope’s evil spell, and says he wants his mommy. Chewie and Finn Calrissian team up and fly off in the Falcon. Everyone in the theater cries. Luke and Rey ride off into the sunset to train for round two. The end.
Wow
If Finn really is a Calrissian, imma stomp JJs nose!
Yeah…GENERAL LANDO CALRISSIAN, the man who destroyed the second death star ..Has a son and his son is trained from birth to be a stormtrooper and an enemy of everything Lando stands for..and was told his entire life that LUKE SKYWALKER a dear friend of his father’s, a man who saved Lando’s life multiple times was a villain and his enemy, Lando also led his son to believe that his best friend Han Solo was also the biggest enemy he could ever face…..yeah that totally makes sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how did you ever figure it out?!
Han and Lando loose their sons to the New Order in an attack. The boys were together. Luke is the New Hope. Rey is the “Ray of Hope” Luke’s little girl.
Also, Lando dies in that attack. A LOT of key players die in this film or have already passed. It’s a darker movie than we think. Or not. It’s fun to imagine.
OOoooohh I like the link between Lor san Tekka and luke.. but also: Lor san tekka is a ( close enough ) anagram for Not Sarlakk so.. Bobba fett?
I love these days of Star Wars-excitement almost as much as the films themselves.
That’s why I’m happy they about the spin-off films. It’s a great opportunity to experiment with the genre. Some young, ambitious directors could take risks that you couldn’t with the Sequel Trilogy.
I swear the sound quality is messed up in that video.
That gun that Han gives to Rey the bottom part of it looks like this! http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Star-Trek-Nero-Romulan-8-5-Toy-Blaster-Disruptor-/371295780017?hash=item5672f3fcb1:g:YuoAAOSwEeFVG~xI
No more! Stop showing so much footage! No! Keep showing it! No wait! Stop showing! What’s wrong with you? Don’t stop! lol
My thoughts aswell!
You don’t have to see the footage if you don’t want to.
The footage is barley showing any spoilers only jumbled scenes put together we have barley any context for any of these scenes and most of the footage we have scene is from the first act.
everytime i see Ridley say ” i’m Rey” in those teasers i smile. she is gonna be such a big star.garanteed. also, Ackbar rocks !!!
Agreed. This cast is superb. I know a lot of people are hating on JJ’s Star Trek reboot (though they were wildly successful) but his casting for those movies was superb; so im not surprised how well he had done with the Star Wars cast. Daisy is a gem and I hope this ST doesnt type cast her for the rest of her career. Id love to see her naked …er I mean in other movies.
I love the BB8 action in this…firstly you see him get launched by that Tie Fighter blast at the start and then @ 47secs he’s negotiating steps..something it took Daleks 30 odd years to master
So true! Love those little details. Also @ 11secs, how he turns his ‘head’ towards the same direction as Rey and Finn. This movie is so well thought through. Got tickets for two shows on the 16th of December! Yay me!
Ahem. Or “her”… (fingers crossed)
Rumors say that BB-8 stands for Beastie Boys, album number 8.
There is also a character called Ello Asty in the Force Awakens. This is JJ’s tribute to the Beastie Boys’ album Hello Nasty.

R2D2 who? Seriously love BB8. Fricking brilliant whoever came up with him.

Can’t wait, I already got my IMAX 3D tickets
Same
Us too!! For the morning of the 18th! Don’t want any plot spoilers so it’s breakfast and Star Wars! 🙂
Got my tickets for the 7:00 show and the 10:30 show on the 17th in Colorado!

Love the smile on her face as she says her name
She looks like she has a little girl crush in Finn. How adorable.
President Snow.
Is Han giving Rey a blaster ? Is it the same blaster she shoots in the other scene ?
What kind of weapon is the stormtrooper using against Finn’s lightsaber ? It looks like an electric staff similar to what we have seen in the prequel trilogy.
Cool !
That tie fighter untethering scene looks awkward and a bit cheap though.
It doesn’t look like it’s untethering. It’s more like it is being stolen.
Trailer CGI always looks worse than movie CGI.

@ 0:25 looks like execution to me somehow, what do you think?
Looks like a beheading or something.
ISIS parallels or am I reading too much into it?
But does Rey like sand?
Dude – that shit gets EVERYWHERE.
It’s so coarse.
I’m not too excited on Kylo Ren’s dialog. He sounds like he’s reciting poetry.
“I will finish…
what you started.”
“I’ll show them…
the Dark Side.”
It seems like bits of cut and pasted dialogue for the benefit of the trailers only.
Its bits and pieces thrown together. Its not going to sound right. I for one love the sound of his voice. I didnt think anyone could match Vaders tone in a way that moves you the way Vaders voice did, but this is pretty close. Im impressed. Driver is a great actor too, he is going to really add something to Kylo. Cant wait!
I’m not sure if that was a confirmation of the rumor that stormtroopers were being trained with swords, or if that was a cool new electrostaff the guy used to block Finn. Either way, it looked awesome.
If a non-sensitive uses a lightsaber I’ll be pissed. The reason why jedi and sith were the only ones capables of wield a lightsaber was thank’s to their force sensitivity, which avoided at all moments to tear themselves in pieces. Electric staff, however, is different thing.
I think you are a little confused…It has never been said that only Jedi and Sith were the only ones capable of wielding lightsabers….anywhere at anytime in the history of Star Wars. I think maybe You should go watch the Empire Strikes back and come back here and let us all know what you saw Han Solo doing on Hoth! you are going to be shocked!.
‘Using’ a lightsaber and wielding it successfully against a trained, force-sensitive opponent are two different things. Anybody could do the former.
True… Han used Luke’s saber to gut the Tauntaun. 😉
Yep. Dumb for a non-force user to use a lightsaber
grievous was not sensitive to the force
There is zero reason why a non force sensitive person couldn’t use a lightsaber. That being said, its not a very useful weapon without the force. A force user can use the force to anticipate blaster shots and use the saber as a defensive weapon, even redirecting laser shots for offense. A force user can also deflect lighting with a saber. For a non force user a blaster makes more sense as a weapon.
Uggghh. More X Wings flying over a super weapon. Didnt we see that in 2 movies already? I was hoping the “attack on the super weapon” was more rumor than reality. I mean I know they are copying ANH pretty closely, I didnt want to believe they were copying it that closely. Might as well have a trench run with an exhaust chute too….
If they pull up a floating Super Weapon at that round table the whole movie will be ruined for me. Theres using a story line as a guide (ANH) and then there is just plain old copy and paste. Please no copy/paste.
Stop whining! We haven’t even seen the film yet. Oh wait, did you see it already? Can’t please anyone, I swear!
Yeah, because them just throwing away the blueprints, ignoring and not upgrading the most powerful weapon ever constructed in the Universe is something that every Military does when they have used it a couple times… “HEY!!! we got the most powerful weapon in the Universe!!…Eh…but we have already used it twice and it was destroyed…maybe we should just cut our losses and not upgrade it so it is not so easy to destroy next time and just surrender..We sure did give it one heck of a try tho guys!!!”…… makes sense
Ummm, this is ‘STAR WARS!’ Wars usually involve each side having large, destructive weapons! Who said they are copying ANH??
I guess you don’t even need to see the movie. You got it all figured out. 😉
Dude, chill and enjoy the ride. I’m pretty sure JJ will leave most of us pretty impressed and craving for more after watching episode VII. He’s got some tricks up his sleeve, I bet.
Well nothing is going to stop me from seeing the movie. I was just hoping for a lead up to an ending that didnt involve destroying a super weapon to save the galaxy. Been there done that twice. I guess we shall see. Still super stoked!
Hmmm C3PO at a round table? Interesting. Wonder if he is a more mature robot now. Maybe someone of importance and even power? Would be a new twist.
He was at the table in A New Hope and in the room for the strike team in Return of the Jedi. I am assuming his is Queen Leia’s protocol droid.
That is new music isn’t it?! I’m sure it is! Why is no-one talking about it, it’s the best part of this new teaser!
I’ll talk about it when I see the film. Still, nothing beats Duel of the Fates.
are leia /han 3p0 , ackbar et al all flying the tardis?
Is that all? I though it was some supposed to be some featurette thingy. Glad it was mostly stuff I’ve seen already
Wow! That’s it?! No new footage. It’s the same 10 scenes being reused every time. Can we at least get some new shots or characters. Whatever one more month. Needs to come now!!!
Do you really want to see the whole movie in previews before it’s actually released??
There’s no way to show this whole movie in previews. But showing some short quick shots would not spoil anything. If it’s showing stuff that’s already been revealed like pirates or some other planets. Idk it just is boring to see the same scenes over and over. They could use some new dialogue in it just mix it up a bit is all I’m saying
Patience, my young padawan. Control your feelings. 😉
There was a lot of new shots! Didn’t you see it? Sure, they were brief and didn’t reveal anythihng new about the story, but I would want that anyway..
Is that Max Van Sydow to the left of Han in the war room????
No, it’s President Snow. 😉
Who’s that?
It’s a joke. Several commenters said that character looks like Donald Sutherland (President Snow from Hunger Games).
Oh ok. Haven’t seen Hunger Games so that explains it. Does look like Sutherland though…
Everyone saw President Snow, but no one noticed Jed Clampett?
So…did anyone else notice the Stormtrooper deflecting Finns lightsaber strike?
I figure if those bodyguard droids belonging to General Grievous had weapons that could do it, then it only makes sense that some Stormtroopers would adopt similar tech. It’s not really surprising to me, and it could make for some interesting fight scenes.
Oh yes, I wasn’t complaining actually. 🙂 I think it makes a LOT of sense. Especially knowing that the First Order/Knights of Ren is basically an Anti Luke/Vader Worshiping cult (at least it appears that way at the moment.) With Stormies raised from birth to see Luke as some type of anti-christ/demon that turned on his father and murdered the rightful ruler of the Galaxy they SHOULD be prepared to fight Lightsabers and possibly even be mentally trained to defend against some force powers.
The music was the most John Williams esque of the recent trailers and tv spots…wonder if this is a tease of the actual score from the movie
This footage shows Han Solo shooting his fucking classic blaster, what more could you need?
VIBROBLADES BISH!
