 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
It's really close between the two of us. I'd say me but only because I know a lot of the useless background crap from the franchise like names of background characters but she has seen them more than I have. So today could be me but tomorrow could be her. And I have a small Millennium Falcon on my right wrist that I got 5 years back. Gonna be getting Luke's green saber soon. Or who knows, maybe something from the new movie. And my wife has Vader's helmet on her left thigh and a storm trooper helmet on her right thigh.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
Apparently social media reactions to the premiere are not embargoed, so somewhere around 10 p.m. PST we should learn what to expect from it quality-wise.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
Also, taking off my "anti-SW" hat... most everything I'm reading is that it's great, but I've yet to see anything overly enthusiastic. Should have great WOM and be a real crowd/fan pleaser. JJ Abrams style.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
What I find funny/weird is...
People's reactions like Star Wars was resurrected or something. Umm, I'm fairly certain RotS is a Top 3 SW movie. This wasn't coming off of some garbage previous movie. This will fall in the RotS range. Top 3-4 SW movies, but not #1/2.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
Just about every reaction I've seen says it's better than RETURN OF THE JEDI, but not as good as EMPIRE or A NEW HOPE.

I think that's all you could ask for. Sounds good.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
Yep. The only "okay" reaction I've seen is from Devin Faraci, and that's to be expected. Every other reaction has been positive.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
If people don't think RotS is better than ANH, then they have issues. Or their childhood is warping their opinion.

 whatever you guys say "oh look a new movie is coming out so I need to say the last movie wasn't good to build this movie up more"

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
Hayden's performance alone is worse than the any bad part of the OT. Sith is far far inferior.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
Considering RotS pretty much matches the worst OT movie on KJ tells you all you need to know about all of your bullshit.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
REVENGE OF THE SITH is absolutely better than RETURN OF THE JEDI. It's not even close.
I think the acting holds it back from A NEW HOPE, though. And there's a simplicity to that film that just works.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
See? I'm not crazy. I just pointed out the wrong movie.
I think the vast majority will rank it: 1. Empire 2. A New Hope 3. Sith/Jedi 4. Jedi/Sith 5. Clones 6. Phantom
And I think most will rank Awakens no higher than 2, but no lower than 5.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
1. esb 2. anh 3. rotj 4. tpm 5. rots/aotc -> equally bad and unwatchable imo

Magnus wrote: TDS doing his best to out retard Chip. Intense battle of idiocy. Watch REVENGE OF THE SITH and RETURN OF THE JEDI back-to-back. One of them has forward momentum and is clearly a movie the filmmaker wanted to make, and the other is RETURN OF THE JEDI.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
Watched all of them over the weekend.
6 5 4
3 2 1
Every other viewing my rankings for OT change. That duel in Jedi man.

 Re: Star Wars Episode VII thread - GREATEST TRAILER EVER
And RotS is a HUGE jump from TPM and AotC.
