chrislad

It looks interesting. Not enough there to have me salivating. Yet.

I was sold when the AT-ATs showed up, colour me excited ........:)

Art Direction looked amazing. Definitely had a more original feel to it, I wasn't excited that much by the new film but I gotta say, this teaser has got me salivating a bit.. the only thing I could fault this for at the moment is the weird samurai guy.

That fake fade becoming the shadow behind teh Star Destroyer... holy crap.

When that siren kicks in - that distinctive Death Star siren.... :eek:

So this is the hunt for the Death Star plans, right?

From the events of episode 4 wasn't Vader responsible for getting them back? Is he in this or is that a different sith lord bowing down?

chrislad

There's rumours of Vader being in this one. I believe the rough idea of the film is how the Rebels stole the plans and got the to the Tantive IV (I'm sure the film may end close to that point, or pretty close to the start of Episode IV)

Im Excited.

I'd imagine Vader would have to be in it, it's pretty much a direct prequel to EP IV.

I never understood on the film forum when they mentioned score and music when reviewing a film but the first 6 or 8 notes on that trailer gave me the chills. It looks deadly too me and I really hope they knock it out of the park as I could happily live with a different take on the SW universe every year from now until whenever.

As for Vader I'd be willing to bet my left nut that he'll be in it for at least a scene. There was talk of a much more dark/gritty take on the action with Vader using bodies as shields and so on. It would be deadly to see. But I reckon there will be at least one action sequence/fight with him involved. It's too good an opportunity to pass up and would guarantee to get the SW fan Base going to see it.

Yeah, I'm now salivating. After watching it a few times, I can't get it out of my head. Dammit! I didn't want to get this excited so far from release!

I'm wondering if there's Ewan McGregor cameo in Rogue One... He confirmed he's already spoken with JJ Abrahams.

In this clip he deliberately will not comment on whether he's spoken with producers to me it looks like he has

I recall hearing that Tarantino has tweeted about wanting to direct an Obi Wan movie & McGregor replying that he'd be in for it - both tweets apparently were deleted later in the day

chrislad

I wouldn't put a lot of weight in the Tarantino thing.
