Official Star Wars VII Thread

[DLR Bridge]

There were the two "microseasons" of Clone Wars that came out before Ep III, but the regular half hour shows came out after. The short series introduced General Grievous but other than that I didn't feel that it was a must-view before seeing Revenge Of The Sith. I didn't keep up with the half hour.

III starts of with Annikan having a scar on his head that was supposedly explained in the mini cartoon series I didn't care to watch. I guess I just didn't give enough of a hoot since I and II were, for the most part, God awful.

I also don't care to see any part of a real life movie be done in animation. Didn't work for me in Kill Bill, either.

The first two prequels sucked balls and the third one only got good at the end. And speaking of spinoffs and such, you guys missed the Phineas and Ferb Star Wars hour long special. It was pretty funny and had some good references, including the Han shot first line.

J.J. Abrams formula for shit movie making: take a popular sci-fi trope/tv show/movie and CGI it to fucking death. Second, buy up all the rights including merchandising. Third, write fast-paced and nonsensical scripts with little character development and place them in a plot line so sparse and gaping with holes as much as possible. Fourth, pick up all sorts of superfluous awards given out by geeks with zits who still live with their parents and stink of wank simply because you are not Micheal Bay.

Fuck this film. Fuck you for going to see it and you know you are going to do.

nope

Abrams won't have the merchandising. No way Lucas or Disney lets that go. Abrams isn't even doing the next two episodes.

You left out the lens flare...

You mean that highly annoying blueish tinting? Some conspiracy trolls seriously believe that is some sort of Illuminati subconscious programming that somehow "awakens" brain theta waves or some such shit to get us hypnotized or whatever. It's just annoying.

Didn't like most of I, but I kind of get why it had to happen. Other than Binks, that is. Liked most of II. Had a pretty good idea what was going to happen in III but liked it, of course on the way out of the theater I thought that was going to be the last one forever.

No dish or cable, but I found last night's show on the torrents...should be done in 20 minutes.

Yeah. After watching his take on Star Trek I am hoping Abrams doesn't fuck this up more than Lucas could.

I don't think that's even possible. But if he does what Lucas and Spielberg did to Indy, there's gonna be riots in the streets...

Existed all over the last one Into A Bad Plot Line or whatever it was called. Makes me a hypocrite because I enjoyed the revamped Star Trek (well, the second one did kind of suck) in that it was a wonderfully casted movie which goes to show JJ can do some things right - or hire the right people to do his films right but this cheesy CGI overkill effects need to go.

I was glad to see another IJ movie, but if they do another one I'd prefer they leave LaPoof out of it.

I didn't like the way the second Trek went back to the well with Spock Prime. It was okay ONCE, to do it again reeked of desperation for acceptance.

I wasn't really a huge Trek fan. The only one I saw in the theater was the first one. I remember my dad falling asleep, and that it was a boring movie. Watched the rest of them on cable or whatever but never got into the other TV series or the movies past the Borg one.

[Kristy]

Yeah, the whole Khan storyline that had already been done. Out of all the original Star Trek Episode Abrams had to work with he went with the one that had already been done. This upcoming Star Wars will blow baby diaper chunks.

[Kristy]

nope

Hippie.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

Hippie.

Star Wars VII: Handjob of the Jedi....

[Nitro Express]

Fuck Stars Wars. The new ones suck and this one will suck just as bad. If you want to toss your junk to Padme or curse at Jar Jar Binks or die of boredom. These movies are for you.
