Really lol. I can understand people not liking Star Trek Into Darkness much, but the first one is a fantastic film through and through. Makes me super confident about having JJ behind this.

Yeah I love both Star Trek JJ movies, lol @ people acting like they're agreed upon as being awful.

I think maybe the best part of this trailer is the binary sunset music crescendo matched with the x-wings flying over water.

I don't understand why there is so much fuss over JJ in the first place. How much power can a director not named George Lucas really have on an IP as big as Star Wars?

Or, you know, the lightsaber is being handed to lukes "sister" like the dialogue and build/outfit of the recipient seem to imply. However, other things seem to hint she may be the jedi type, such as the teaser and promo pics which seem to imply she is acrobatic. That doesn't exclude Finn though. whynotboth.gif

Hasbro is holding all their merchandise until SDCC so I'd imagine we'd see them there.

All of this Star Wars hype has made me regret never watching any of the movies. But there's so many of them that I don't know where to start and which ones are worth watching. Any tips?

There's only three, watch them in order:
Star Wars
Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi
Awesome

That's great and all but where was Boba the Hutt
Yeah. This isn't 100% JJ's Star Wars were talking about. This is a consortium of SW nerds putting this thing together with JJ at the helm of the first film.

Even so. Most of Into Darknesses problems were on the script level. You can thank the brilliant and talented Krutzman and Orci for that.
I had the same question when introducing my kids (9, 7, 7) to the series. I watched all six in the order they were released (IV, V, VI, I, II, III) and they absolutely loved it. We spaced the movies out a bit, so they wouldn't be sick of it, too. We watched IV on a weeknight, V on a Saturday, then VI on a Sunday. I think we then hit the prequels about a week later, and spaced each of those almost a week apart. All in all it took about 3 weeks and the kids got a real good feel for the entire series.

The hope I had with the first trailer faded with this one. Can't really put my finger on why, exactly.
Maybe put Revenge of the Sith infront of A New Hope. The other two can be discarded
Seeing as ... well;
Palpatine's rise to power. Anakin going bad. Padme dying. Luke and Leia being born ... etc. All relevant to the OT.
How about ... not getting what you'd hope you would get?

Even most die hard trekkies like the first Star Trek film by Abrams. It's the second one that really sucked.

Tarantino directing episode VIII confirmed?
I enjoyed the first JJ Star Trek movie a lot, the second one though? Not so much. But I have faith and that's all you need.

Cannot unsee. Even Tarantino wants in on the hype "honestly kinda sad Hateful 8 is gonna get crushed at the box office because of how close it's releasing to this).
Completely agree, but let's face it JJ is gonna get the blame regardless.

Didn't need explaining when Star Wars came out, doesn't need it now IMO.
I understand people have issues with the prequels but this isnt good advice. You should watch them all, infact, RoTS is a good starwars film and adds alot weight to Obi, Vader and Yoda. You'll miss out on some of the best music in the saga and memorable enemies.
4,5,6,1,2,3.

To you.
As a person who was never a fan of ST, I thought the reboot was solid. There was some slippage with Into Darkness but "irredeemable in all areas of production"?
LOL..."prequel level bad"
Dat interweb hyperbole.

That's a great poster

If people are really gonna recommend the prequels at least do it the right way.
4,5,1,2,3,6.

Not really worth
but friends generally don't recommend the prequels to friends.

I'm wondering what sort of accent John and Daisy's characters will have? I wonder if they'll keep their natural accents.

I just realized something. It didn't hit me until I had to think about it but these look nothing like the prequels. A lot more emotion and movement. Love it.
Holy shit
What?!
There are only six movies and only three of them are particularly relevant. Watch the original trilogy.
A New Hope
Empire Strikes Back (Greatest Movie of All Time!)
Return of the Jedi.
After that, decide if you want to watch the terrible prequels.
You gonna leave him hanging on 5? Cruel. But yes, i stand corrected this is a brilliant order, i'll join in by starting on Saturday.

The designs in this movie are out of this world spectacular. I am so impressed with them, they did an amazing job with everything I've seen so far.

Hold on, friend! I'd love to share with you some swell news about the Windows 8 Metro UI! Wait, where are you going?
My advice is to watch them 4,5,1,2,3,6. Watching the prequels first ruins the Darth Vader reveal although most people have heard that spoiler as part of pop culture but still. Watching it in that order makes 1,2 and 3 like long flashbacks before you have Vader's redemption in 6.

Wow, I love what they did with Chewy.
Also, following that order makes the step in quality from V to VI look less steep.
