I remember being pretty excited to see what Drew Struzan cooked up for the TFA Celebration-exclusive poster - and then being sorta disappointed/underwhelmed by what got released.
I wish Phil Noto was doing all the promotional artwork for these movies. He's fucking perfect for it.

Episode IX: Return of the Gungans - Directed by Colin Trevorrow
I can feel it, y'all
The EW thing better be hours worth of videos of Daisy and Mark doing bits.
Had that as my wallpaper for a while, such a cool shot.

I've been saying this for awhile. If they could remake the Star Wars prequel trilogy as an animated companion to Clone Wars/Rebels, I think alot of people could come aboard, as more and more adults today watch adult animated shows like Bojack Horseman and Archer. At the very least, I think it would generate interest, just to see if it could be done, and to compare both works with each other. I personally would be interested in what directorial decisions would be made in a revised Obi Wan/Qui Gon vs. Darth Maul sequence by the same team that did Clone Wars.
And if you did wind up with a superior product, I can't see what the controversy would be, given that much of the story (or at least the core elements of Lucas' prequel story) would remain unmodified.

I bet if anyone sneaks a fuckin Gungan into the Sequel Trilogy it'll be him.
A gungan & an ewok.
At a bar.
There'd be no controversy because they're never gonna do this. There's no reason to. The percentage of the fanbase that thinks those movies need "redeeming" isn't large enough for anyone involved to even consider doing it.
We were bullshitting about it earlier in the thread. (shit, this thread got long, didn't it. Damn.)

Good stuff. Definitely has a iconic, tone-setting feel to it too.
As long as there's no Rahtars.

If it's another con-exclusive Struzan poster then maybe this time we'll get an awkwardly placed Luke Skywalker.
Him or Paolo Rivera would be great.

Oh god. ABC would be terrible. For me, I'm thinking of AMC or FX being the absolute low bar in terms of where it be aired. I don't think you'd need a show where people's limbs are being chopped off, but rarely do you get anything good or thoughtfully woven on national networks.
Seconded.
Just add an eensy-winsy bit more detail to the characters and he'd be all set.
Yeah that Han was, strange, as if added at the last minute, compositionally the poster was just structured poorly, in my view.

They're never letting Star Wars out of the family. They've got a deal with Netflix, and they've got multiple networks to place the show.
It'll show up either on a Disney-owned channel, or Netflix will pay to distribute what they make.

What's the best place to stream this? And are there specific times to watch out for?

the starwars channel on YouTube will have it. I think Verizon will also be running it (they're basically the reason the streaming is even happening, the stream is technically their production, I believe.)

That'd be pretty on the nose.
Then again, it was the very first thing I heard in my head, so actually hearing it on the soundtrack to close out the trailer would probably insta-chills

Wait--is that real?
The effort and art is admirable, but this dude really should have waited til the second trailer of TFA instead of tracing random google pics and manips.
Two important questions here:
1. What is happening at midnight? Someone is posting a picture of themself with Hayden?
2. What is wrong with your faaaaaaaace?

Could Netflix produce a Star Wars series? They already have an impressive stable of original shows. And Sense8 has some of the most impressive production values I've seen in a television show, period. If they could line their ducks in a row and make a Star Wars show happen, it could potentially bring in Game of Thrones numbers for Netflix.
A Star Wars show on ABC would come across looking like a cheap cash grab. But Netflix, it would have a more seeming air of prestige to it, that it had writers that cared for its product. You don't get that with Agents of Shield. If AoS were on Netflix, I think you'd have tighter story lines and character development.
Remember, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity!

My first time to SWCE was so chill other than getting up real early to catch the first train to the other side of London. Wanted to get the Future Filmmakers panel, got a screened version instead because everything was fuckin' gone by the time I got there, walked around the con, looked at cool shit, realised I didn't wanna buy anything and just started hanging out by the Star Wars Show for the rest of the day.
Apparently Kathleen Kennedy got pizza for all the peeps staying overnight.

People better not call me at work when the trailer hits. I'll be watching that on non-stop repeat. "IT is closed bitches! Turn it off and back on again!"
