The first Star Wars: The Force Awakens teaser has finally arrived.

"There has been an awakening — have you felt it? The dark side, and the light," says an ominous voice, just before Hans Solo's Falcon soars into view and the franchise's iconic theme song plays.

Bwahahahaha ! “Honest” is right. “Tossing out 50 years of canon !”

They had some link to “Into Dorkness” gag reel. I thought the whole Abrams diarrhea attack WAS the gag reel.

Any truth to the rumor that Jabba will be back, and this time played by Karen Lewis ?

I heard Jerrold Nadler is ticked about losing the role after his gastric bypass surgery, especially since he originated the character.

Hans Solo's Falcon soars into view

He's on his way to pick up Franz so they can pump you up.

I’m waiting for the District9 sequel. I’m sick to death of JJ Abrams’ lens flares and James Cameron just makes me sick.

Enough with the Star Trek and Star Wars franchises. How about making films of the Jack Vance “Planet of Adventure” stories. Or Heinlein’s “The Moon is a Harsh Mistress”? anything but these done-to-death series.

And no no more f***ing comic book movies. Yes I’m an old curmudgeon. I’m not a bit sorry about it. Enough movies for 8 year olds and enough remakes already.

How can you not love James Cameron ?

Looked more like a light-saber version of a cross-guard.

That's what it looked like. Curious to see how it will be used, since no one ever seemed to need a guard before. (I suppose Dooku did, since Annikan lopped his hands off in a duel...). I think the duel with Darth Maul was the best lightsaber fight to date.

I thought the storm troopers were all clones of Jango Fett who was played by a partly Māori actor.

Ewoks didn’t talk.

[moose07]

Are you sure?

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

They made little squeeks IIRC but C3PO had to translate.

[moose07]

That would explain it. :)
“C3PO”
Oh ,can’t stand that droid.
R2D2, on the other hand,....he rocks.

Episode 4 rocked. Episode 5 rules. Episode 6 good and bad. Lose the ewoks . Han wusses out a bit. 1,2,3 a snore fest with the exception of parts of 3. I hope JJ restores the franchise to the 4-5 quality. I was impressed with his Star Trek reboot.

How can you not love James Cameron

It's called his anti American hate fest “Avatar” . I did enjoy other of his films though.

Jabba doesn’t have to return. Remember there was a brief shot of a female slug in The Phantom Menace so all we need is the son or daughter of Jabba.

How much do you want to bet that Mickey Mouse will make some kind of appearance in the movie? And they’ll be at least one queer major character too.

And if they’re gonna have Obi-Wan, they need to have Palpatine as well.

[GOPsterinMA]

Very good.

Even Khent says these movies will “be gayer than Elton John wearing a pink leotard”. Wow.

I’ve already seen some folks on the Internet calling the lightsaber “Sith-calibur”.
