You may have heard somewhere around the internet that a little trailer dropped over the last 24 hours. Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens (2015) is probably the biggest film event of the past 30 years, so their was much anticipation for it. On the absurdly small chance you haven’t seen it, check it out below. It’s been surprising how little smug dismissiveness there has been towards the trailer which is so rare these days. But you can see why, it is a pretty enticing piece of work. I like it a lot. Visually it feels exactly like a sequel to the original trilogy should. There are flashes of storm troopers, lightsabers and droids, to get all the old fans giddy with excitement. Now if I can somehow avoid endless spoilers for the next year and a bit, I will go into this one with a high sense of anticipation. What do all you folk think about it?

Not a fan of the saga and I don’t think this one’s going to change that.
You don’t like any of the films man?
Only seen the first, and the newer trilogy. But no. Pretty much only like the visuals and world-building.
Gave me goosebumps yesterday when I heard the music, and I can’t wait despite the fairly terrible episodes 1-3. Roll on December 2015!
Thanks for commenting Stu. I like the original trilogy, though I’ve was never a rabid fan. But it is just awesome to see so much overwhelming excitement for an upcoming film. Happy to be swept along with all that over this next year.
Its on my ‘must see’ list already!
Me too! Will probably be at a midnight screening.
Mine will probably be at home on DVD 🙂
Don’t get to the movies much?
Very rarely
There were rumors that wrestler Sheamus would be playing Darth Vader. Isn’t Darth Vader dead?
I thought he was dead. That said, I’m not a hardcore fan so who knows? But I thought that was what happened at the end of episode VI
Yes, I was confused by the rumor as well.
Not a fan of the “new” lightsaber. There’s a reason why finger guards are not sharp. I predict the user of the “cross bar” lightsaber’s gonna lose some fingers!
Haha. I have seen a fair bit of attention directed to those finger guards. I’m nowhere that detailed focus to notice any issue.
