No Luke at all; that cannot be an accident

Another trailer tonight on Monday Night Football, see what if any new reveals there are. There's bound to be some, they been teasing it all afternoon here. And this is where in a normal 'verse, you'd have the Trailer 2 full size one released.

All I'm going to say is that I'm not convinced he ain't there.......

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Trailer (Official)

I donno
I not getting a really good vibe from this; maybe because it looks disturbingly like the spoiler stuff I've heard about, which aint good

[Mynock]

They're not giving anything away that's for sure. I'm still avoiding any/all "spoilers" because I don't want any preconceptions following me to the theater. It's all bullshit speculation anyway.
Plot twist: BB8 is Luke's brain in a jar.

I just got off the plane from "The World" and let me promise you that Walt is betting huge on this one. And the next. And the next. And the spinoffs. And...

Bet no one will see that coming...

Since JJ likes to sneak things in the background, I have this wish we'll see the stuffed corpse of Jar-Jar standing in some dusty corner...

One thing that does stand out, and I only note it because it's who's saying it, is the idea that all this has been lost somehow. Since when did Han Solo become the font of all knowledge? About the Jedi for crying out loud even?? You remember Han, don't you folks?

"Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid!"

AND

"Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and seen a lot of strange stuff. But I've never seen ANYTHING that makes me believe there's one All-Powerful Force controlling EVERYTHING. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsence"

Even by Jedi, Han wasn't a complete believer. So, Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot, Over?


There is a lot of good though; the semi-transparent TIE wings are an interesting touch; the X-Wing coming in at 1:34 and blasting that TIE out of the sky was a moment for all us X-Wing fans of pure ownage

It's been 30 years in their universe too. People change. Hell 10 years ago my opinions on a lot of things were different, I'm not married to someone who could levitate me when I pissed her off......

Except Leia doesn't look like a Jedi. And where the hell is Luke?? The longer that this numb-nuts lensflare boy futzes around with this , the worse it gets. The whole time span is stupid alone, having Luke somehow go off and be fucking Yoda or Ben in exile is likely the stupidiest possible idea any imbecile "writer" could think up. And some of the other stuff I wont mention?? Lets just say I be lo -end. There be a ton of people wanting to tear fucking JJ's windpipe out and use it for a whistle. Engineering a premise to fit a dumb story idea is literally doing your story planning upside-down. And so far the only thing I've gotten is "oh, you old fans are just wrong, and and and SHUT UP! we explained" Yeah. Right. Some things dont need fixing. Other things are bone fucking stupid and always will be

We'll see how it goes
