Support NeoGAF

[Oppo]

Garry Whitta didn't really write this. He was dropped from the film after the first draft. It got new writers after him.

oh I know, but that's typical. i just get why he decided that touching this however briefly was worth giving up GAF and podcasting for.

 

[Cymbal Head]

Stuff like this is how they get someone like me more invested in the universe. I've never been some massive Star Wars fan, but they expand and execute properly with these stand-alones, it can only do some good. (I still have zero interest in a Han Solo film though)

I would love to see a slow-burn thriller that's less about action set pieces.

 

[LiK]

Holy Christ I want this now....

Kinda surprised we didn't get a Vader tease, glad we didn't though.

it'll be at the end of the movie for 1 minute.

 

[Nokagi]

Who's this dude?

Dunno but Royal Guards are in the room. Doesn't that mean the Emperor is near?

 

[BassForever]

Looks awesome can't wait

 

[Blastoise]

Vader has to be in it right? I heard some subtle breathing.

 

[Iceternal]

Not convinced by the main character, she seems like an "edgy bad-ass" cliche like Jessica Jones.

Donnie Yen doing Donnie Yen stuff in a Star Wars movie ? THIS I like !

 

[BronsonLee]

oh I know, but that's typical. i just get why he decided that touching this however briefly was worth giving up GAF and podcasting for.

I'd give up GAF and I already don't do podcasts if it meant I could write for a Star Wars film

Shit, I'd give up GAF to write -a- film, I'll abandon ya'll immediately!

 

[Bold One]

"Reckless, aggressive, undisciplined."
"Yeah you might say she's......a rogue one."

"you know Ellie, you really are the Rogue One"

 

[Currygan]

is that Pedro Pascal?

 

[jett]

Eh. That trailer didn't really show anything interesting.

Cinematography on Chivo level gahhhdamn tho.

 

[Mangoverboard]

He gonna go pop pop

This is all just wishful thinking though, everyone in the crew is so totally dead

Vader wiping them all out will be glorious.

 

[valkillmore]

some guys here are really afraid of strong independent women.

Unless they're named HIllary

I for one welcome more female leads. Absolutely sick and tired of macho dudebros

 

[Cheebo]

is that Pedro Pascal?

who in the trailer?

 

[Khoryos]

Definitely a Kyle Katarn-inspired character at the very least.

Not only that, all the half-shots of robots gave me a strong Dark Trooper vibe.

 

[Dany]

is that Pedro Pascal?

Yes <3

 

[Herr Starr]

hyped for this. trailer looks amazing and it built up a base for the story. The story needs to be very interesting, because we know they "fail" at tthe end and only get the plans because vader and the emperor let them have it, so the ride needs to be amazing.

You're thinking of the wrong Death Star (as are all the people who keep referring to Bothans).

 

[btrboyev]

Looks fantastic. Some really great shots in there.

 

[KittenMaster]

It's definitely happening for reals this time guys.

Even if it's not him I could definitely go for a movie that is like the 90's era of Star Wars games and this trailer gave me that vibe.

 

[GeeTeeCee]

Yen might be a Jedi if he does what Kanan and Ahsoka do in Rebels and claim that they aren't Jedi anymore (because the order no longer exists). It's a flimsy excuse, but one that SW:Rebels clings to for dear life.

 

[VistraNorrez]

Really happy to see them use Genevieve O'Reilly as Mon Mothma. Did that casting ever leak?

 

[Rikudo]

This looks rad! :O

 

[Currygan]

who in the trailer?

Yes <3

WHO TO BELIEVE

 

[Black Hat]

Main actress is a bit cringe-inducing, just like Ridley. I really hop we don't get a second Mary Sue just for the sake of the "strong independent woman" thing...again.

This comment is cringe inducing...

 

[chugen]

i hope the next one will be better

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Btw, I liked Godzilla. Is that an unpopular opinion on Gaf?

 

[Vampirolol]

I'm interested in that as well, although I'm even more interested in why he's kneeling. Could Vader be in the tube thing?

Probably the emperor: you have the royalguards and I don't think people kneeled at Vader.

 

[Hystzen]

" I rebel"

Fucking hell that was awful the rest not sure about but it is a teaser.

Bets Donnie Yen gets chumped like he did in Blade 2

 

[Dusktildawn48]

Mads wasnt in this trailer was he?

 

[GamePnoy74]

Welp...looks like Hot Toys is gonna make a killing selling figures of every one of these these new characters and stormtroopers.

Really though, amazing how under-the-rader this movie was compared to TFA's production...

 

[Cheebo]

Yes <3

Who in the trailer? Everyone in the trailer looked to be people we already knew were cast in the film outside of Mothma.

 

[Vire]

Well...

Woke up this morning, opened up Twitter and saw Nibel retweeted that first pic, and I genuinely had no idea what it was and thought they were doing some new Hunger Games movie.

Funny to see other people think the same.

 

[Vulcano's assistant]

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. When did Mon show up in EPIII?

 

[Iceternal]

" I rebel"

Fucking hell that was awful the rest not sure about but it is a teaser.

Bets Donnie Yen gets chumped like he did in Blade 2

I agree, Jessica Jones number 2

 

[Mix Master]

So cool.

God Damn.

 

[PopeReal]

I thought Ridley was ok at best, and maybe it's the delivery in the trailer, but Jones isn't scoring high marks yet.

And no, obviously it's not simply because she's a strong woman, That's silly.

It's because I feel like Kathleen Kennedy really wants me to know they exist. I'm aware they exist, compelling characters like Ridley from Alien make that point by being interesting, not by clenching their jaws a lot and doing everything perfectly.

I knew when I saw the trailer that this shit would start up again. But damn this is quick.

Fucking annoying.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

the YouTube salt comments lol

already starting with the Mary Sue accusations

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. When did Mon show up in EPIII?

It was a deleted scene, I think.

 

[wetwired]

Yen might be a Jedi if he does what Kanan and Ahsoka do in Rebels and claim that they aren't Jedi anymore (because the order no longer exists). It's a flimsy excuse, but one that SW:Rebels clings to for dear life.

Star Wars lore has worse things to explain, leia saying she remembers her mother,obi wan saying Vader killed lukes father

 

[valkillmore]

i hope the next one will be better

What didn't you like? The filmmakers might be reading this thread

Rogue One Horn > Inception Horn

Nah. Not even close. I don't hate the Rogue One horn but let's not be silly

 

[Henkka]

What if the hooded guy is Snoke?

 

[Quote]

Rogue One Horn > Inception Horn

 

[Arnie7]

HOLY GOOD GOD.

I MEAN HOLY SHIT GAF HOLD ME.

THIS IS EPSIODE 7 I WANTED. LOOKS NEW BUT STILL STAR WARS. LOOKS BEYOND AMAZING.

GIVE GARTEH EDWARDS EPSIODE 9! Now fucking now.

 

[Enduin]

Fuuuuuuuck that looks so good.

 

[The Boat]

The main character's delivery (or maybe the lines themselves) seem a bit cheesy, but it's hard to say out of context. Star Wars and cheesy lines go hand in hand though. Hyped!

 

[Lgndryhr]

Cannot wait for this movie. Disney and Lucasfilm are going to make sure we get quality now. I get the feeling they understand the ramifications if they put out crap.

 

[Currygan]

got it, it's Diego Luna. didn't know he was in this

 

[16BitNova]

Yen might be a Jedi if he does what Kanan and Ahsoka do in Rebels and claim that they aren't Jedi anymore (because the order no longer exists). It's a flimsy excuse, but one that SW:Rebels clings to for dear life.

Luke was the last KNOWN jedi in the OT. But, who knows how many escaped or survived order 66. This can easily become retcon.

 

[LiK]

Welp...looks like Hot Toys is gonna make a killing selling figures of every one of these these new characters and stormtroopers.

Really though, amazing how under-the-rader this movie was compared to TFA's production...

considering the OG Stormtroopers sold out, this means we'll get a reissue. woot.

 

[inky]

some guys here are really afraid of strong independent women.

Wait, women can be strong and independent too? Oh, these are sci fi movies.
