Cumberbact is possibly tied into the film.. ETA:

He would make a bad a$$ Palpatine reboot..

So could Christopher Waltz.

Great point..
We shall see

Here's footage from a movie theater... sounds like a concert, the audience goes insane. Goose bumps, can't wait!

is it just me or does that sound like cumberbatch as the voice of the bad guy?

turns out thats just a fan made trailer recorded from a tv in a dark room lol

Move over George. There's a new sheriff in town.

Very excited about this. ... very..very cool little trailer.

yay!!

As a middle aged beardy rough and ready grumpy cynical old b**tard,
I am amused mildly surprised and fascinated by the sheer buzz of electric tingling enjoyment that filled me in the anticipatory moments before I clicked the trailer.
The aptly named 'teaser' bringing tantalising sensation of familiarity and newness, like virgin snow.
I am rarely moved to such sensations. Esp from movies.

I was 9 in 1977, when in a darkened room a huge pursuing Imperial cruiser came into view from overhead.
At that precise moment a door to my imagination clicked open. I remember it vividly.
I took my first steps into a larger universe.
Been a fan since.

Cannot wait for ep VII.
Loved seeing the Sith? 'broad-sabre' - powerful image.

i wonder ......is the millenium falcon still parked in the baltic sea?

a reply to: HumansEh

yes I remember when I first saw it Close Encounters of the third kind was playing in the adjacent theater.

Funny, I still smell the popcorn...

imo the first movie was the best as it was the one introducing us to the franchise for the first time.

a reply to: canucks555

Yeah, I also saw 'Close Encounters' about that time, but it was 'A New Hope' that caught my imagination.
Read both novels too as a child. Still have my SW copy.
Good times.

,Han Solo as the new sith lord...

i dont think so
han fought with the alliance during the dark nest crisis

han is just a regular ole human

No... listen to the Voice Over on the trailer..

It's without a doubt PALPATINE!

That voice over sounds very much like Tony Todd wonder if he is in the film.

Tony Todd played the candyman/Kurn, worf's brother in star trek.

Holy molly,,,there is a stirring in my lower regions...I'm so psyched to hopefully go see this movie with my kids....

I will prolly watch it.

But DAMN I am sick of sequels, and prequels.

For snips sake hollywood needs to come up with an original thought.

I will be watching it more for the FX than anything else.

That shot of the millenium falcon looked killer.

CG is only getting better.

a reply to: Grovit

Looks good! Can't wait......!

a reply to: Grovit

All I can say is:

"I have a bad feeling about this."

...and:

"May the force be with us all."

Well it looks like hollywood has two chances in 2015 to take a giant dump on my childhood.

Hell yeah!! can't wait nice to have the original band back together for a last hooraah??
AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH!!
Do you know there are creatures walking around grown and upright that have never seen the original trilogy..gasp!

a reply to: MontyMoleClone

Yeah, I play SW:TOR too, I should have recognized some of the cinematics on the 1st pass.
Oh well lol.

This looks phenomenal, it should be a homerun for JJ and a fun ride for Star Wars fans. The effects look good and not over-done, I like how it has some of the look of the originals in both the feel and character appearance.

December 2015... Bleh... Wake me up next year XD

I hate waiting... lol

is your avatar from shogun assassin?
that movie was awesome

Ok, lemme step in here since I suppose I am the resident ATS Star Wars expert. 37 year old lifelong Star Wars fan and I will bet big money that I am the most hardcore fan on here (and pics to prove it!!)

First, there won't be any EU stuff in the movies, outside of tiny nods to it. And Lucas didn't #can EU, Disney did right after they bought LFL in early 2013. TRUST ME ON THIS! I have connections at the highest level in LFL and I am privvy to high level talks.

Second, Serkis won't be Yoda. Why would he? Yoda has never been mo-cap and never will be. The CGI Yoda in ROTS is perfect and he won't be voicing Yoda either. Besides, Yoda is long dead and gone and one with the Force. He's not in the movie.

Cumberbatch isn't either. I don't know why fans have to put Serkis and Cumberbatch in EVERY movie that is announced. He's going to be too busy doing Doctor Strange anyways and the rest of the Marvel movies to live in Star Wars. Serkis is in Ep7, but a tiny role.

The voiceover is being listed as Serkis by some news outlets, but I don't buy it. I believe it's Max von Syndow, who is playing the main bad guy in the film. FYI, the Sith in the trailer is most likely Andy Driver, since he leaked it by mistake that he is a Sith in it, at least for part of it. Gwen Christie is also a baddie in the film, but I think the Sith looks very lean like Driver, so most likely him.

And for whoever it was hinting that it was Mara Jade in the trailer...well can't be. She's EU. Plus even if they did use that EU character, she's Luke's age. That was Daisy Ridley, the main character of the series (along with the black stormtrooper in the beginning, John Boyega....plus I guess you could consider Adam Driver and Oscar Issac the pilot as main characters too). Daisy is going to be most likely Han and Leia's kid...basically the equivalency of Jaina Solo.

Oh, and Grovit, Yoda didn't manipulate midichlorians to help create Anakin....Palpatine's master, Darth Plageus by way of his master Darth Tenebrous, was who willed the Force by using arcane methods to create Anakin.

Also, Luke didn't buy the droids at the Toshi Station...the Jawas rolled right up to Luke's front door of the Lars homestead and sold them there.

Yes, I'm a hardcore geek.
