For the MGS fans in this thread:
Metal Gear Solid 2: The Force Awakens
Pass me on to the future if posted already. A thousand times better than it has any right to be.

Amazing!!! Each new scene that appears in the trailers and TV spots increase hype ... Just a month
Love it. Thanks.

I'm curious if these new films are going to gently grandfather all the old characters out of the series as it moves forward. It's always been the common belief that R2D2 and C3PO would have a constant presence in the series, but I'm getting the feeling that Kathleen Kennedy is looking to shake up that formula to make way for the new. I don't think that a droid trio will work in these films. Someone on another forum stated that he believes that Luke will end up becoming the Gandalf in these newer films in order to stand apart from the slain mentor trope of the earlier films.
One thing I'm curious about is if they decide to eventually cast a new alien. Will it be nonverbal like Chewbacca, or will they aim for one that can speak with non subtitles. Because Jar Jar never worked in the prequels, they ended up having Yoda carrying the heavy load. For this new film, it looks like they aren't using the new cast as direct analogs for the old cast the way that episode 1 attempted to do.

Posting here too, maybe the thread title could do with an update since we are dumping each new bit we see in here.

I made a better gif than that one with the shitty watermark.
I love how his robes and hood move. He looks really cool. It also looks "real". At no point am I thinking that the lightsaber and the sparks are not practical physical things.

I wonder if they used miniature ships for any scenes.

Note sure that I'd get too hyped, guys. Every time we do this it ends in a modicum of disappointment for all concerned
We're already way past that point. Even if the movie sucks, the ride is worth it.
It never occurred to me before now but it's weird how the empire's lasers are green, and the rebel's are red, but the light sabers are reversed.Wired's December cover:

I can't get over the fact that the background's simply a reversed shot from the second teaser trailer, as nice as the composition of the ships is.

So he is the Wizard of Oz for Star Wars?
Yea I don't understand what that is all about with these new movies
This has been the case since the original film.

Interesting that he references a Boba Fett standalone. I know it's been rumored for awhile, but it's written as if he heard about it while he was there.

Finn's back & forth with Han there is a damned good sign.
"You up for this?"
"HELL no."
It's been what - 35 years since we've had back & forth like that in Star Wars?

I understand why they are opposite post PT
I just never considered it before. Also I guaran-fucking-ty that's not why Lucas did it in the OT WyndhamPrice

Seems like a confirmation of what the scuttlebutt said Josh Trank was working on before he got bounced.

There's something about that shot where Finn raises the lightsaber that reminds me of the OT lightsaber effects. Can't really put my finger on it. Maybe I'm just seeing things.

Maybe it's the slight pulsing of the blade? Can't remember if the prequels had that effect.

I might finally buy a Blu Ray player, maybe a PS4 or Xbox One for multi purposes, if the movie lives up to the hype I have.

I think that's it. I don't think the prequels had it, but if they did it must've been pretty subtle.

I can die now then, that was satisfying enough.
But really, Boyega looks like he is really going to kill this role, in those few clips his character radiates personality, strength, presence.
Boyega and Ridley both look incredibly in the movie, much more than I could have hoped, and I think their characters are going to be warmly and passionately revered after the movie comes out. They belong in this fictional universe.

That helmet doesn't look like it fits very well.It looks like he has a smaller role than Rey and Finn as expected, but maybe most of his scenes are spoiler-filled so they're not showing too much in the marketing.
