 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
Ah, I forgot this thread. The one I posted can be deleted.
It is a solid cast. I am particularly excited by Oscar Isaac's involvement.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
Holy shit John Boyega! Fuckin' MOSES from Attack The Block! I don't think anybody had rumors of a black lead so this will be pretty big news once people figure out who he is. Is he Lando's son?

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
It is going to be so strange seeing contemporary Carrie Fisher, after years of becoming an almost Elaine Stritch-esque figure, reprise the role of Leia.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
As pointed out by Twitter...
Bravo to JJ for hiring a grand total of one (1) woman.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
Is Jar Jar still alive when this film is set?

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
I think it is a good cast, especially Max Von Syndow, Issac, and Serkis. The others are mostly unknowns which we should expect with Abrams. I am sure there will be other casting announcements to come, Billy Dee Williams for instance.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
Why was it a bad move? Leia and Padme were pretty strong characters.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
So why not have more?
You know, they don't HAVE to be love interests. Women exist outside of men, bro.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
Lord of the Rings did it too. I agree with what you're saying but every movie does it. Lack of women everywhere!

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
Yeah but LotR was adapted.
This is a brand new story. And will have the opportunity to expand the universe. To not add more than one woman is a mis-step.

It's a sequel. Not original.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
If Zac Efron or Henry Cavil were cast, Chippy wouldn't care about lack of females.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - Cast announced
I would still care. Though I would have enjoyed a Zac Efron casting.
