Star Wars: The Last Jedi 2nd trailer

Rian Johnson states we want to avoid this, really? Anyway, it's a full-length trailer for the next Star Wars film.

Rian Johnson said to avoid it if you don't want spoilers.  That's it.  There are some in there, for sure.

I couldn't resist, this film is gonna be weird.

Spoiler:
So the novice is going to train with the old master in seclusion who gets freaked out because of their similarities with the previous student that killed nearly all the Jedi, and then who is going to go on a mission to try and reach out to the Sith apprentice who still has good in them, against the advice of their mentor. Meanwhile the Empire is upping the stakes by hitting the rebels even harder. The good news is, if they're not only treading over Empire Strikes Back but also ROTJ, they may get into some original content by the third movie?

 
Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi 2nd trailer
The plot twist in Episode VIII is that Rey turns to the dark side and helps the New Order crush the republic.  Episode IX is then three quiet hours of watching the ruins of peaceful civilization smolder, while rats feed on the charred remains of barely-recognizable corpses.  Smell-o-Vision equipped theaters will pump in the scent of burnt wookie hair.  Grief counselling will only be provided to those who paid for premium tickets.  Cross-promotional merchandising opportunities exist in the backyard bomb shelter industry.

Okay, I'll stop before I get my post split and moved to the politics forum....

I was going to watch this just to see how JJ Abrams screws up the last movie he has to, to screw the 3rd trilogy entirely, but this second trailer gives me A New Hope hehehe, we have come full circle then, but seriously this could well restore my belief in The Force and not be like the final fight with the alien in Alien: Covenant, cheese and dumb, like these 2 last SW movies, and I really don't understand why, it has previous movies, it has a massive fan base worldwide, it has the SFXs and a rich Universe story, they just have to make it interesting and they fail at this point IMO, if they can't have a good script give it to fans or whatever, it's the story more than anything what brings you to see this movies, the awesome futuristic and cool technology is a great enhancer, but if the story is crappy there isn't much to enhance, for example Episode IV, specially the enhanced version released decades later is probably the best of all, it ends leaving you with an urge for a trilogy, and the next 2 are great and unique, interesting, unpredictable and awesome when you're watching them for the first time, or the first few times, so they have an awesome base to make something different and interesting, and this implies from small personal scale to galactic implications, which the other movies lacked, or where too slow or always small but several little thing that screws up the end result, and I have read some critics and listened to some friends, and is about the same, the second trilogy had it all in the right proportion with the right speed, and the right timing, glorious majestic movies to never be repeated again, sad, when we have even more possibilities technologically to improve we lack what's more important, the human factor: the good story; at least this is my take on these movies

I still liked Rogue One better than Force Awakens. It will be quite telling I think if the next anthology film is also better than the main trilogy.

EDIT: Trying my damnedest not to be cynical, but christ I can almost hear the KACHING sound when that Porg thing jumped up.

Telling? I don't know, AFAIK George Lukas wrote only 9, but many people have wrote many stories around them over the years, as you might know, you can see that on games and if you ever torrent a SW library, or look for what happened before and after of each movie on each trilogy, many  stories, but controversial, some overlap, some contradict in parallel story-lines, some amateurs/fans, some claim being cannon, many websites, I gave up, maybe... but The Last Jedi doesn't seem promising specially after Luke tells on another trailer is time for the Jedi to end, we'll see...

I thought Why oh why there is always a Jar-jar bin type of character that doesn't seem to fit  :banghead:

I don't get why people are psyched about this. It's the crap that anyone would have predicted it to be. I see nothing "new" here.

Did you see Kylo's TIE/vn silencer flying through the Raddus to kill Leia? What about the Resistance ships besides the Raddus?

There's the Porg thing? Another comic relief character that's sure to go down well with both audiences and merchandisers alike. :)

Jesus, guys, could you be a more negative about a film you've seen a couple minutes of trailers for.  Honestly, this **** is entirely what's wrong with "geek culture."

To be fair, I think it's a product of the internet's influence on culture in general.  If you wanted to ***** about the Ewoks or whatever back in the day you had to hop on your bike, pedal down to the Comic Book Shop and find someone to complain to (who not necessarily was going to agree with you).  Now no matter what your opinion is you can find a community just a internet connection away to stoke those fires.  I was initially disappointed by Phantom Menace for example, but I don't think I would have developed the keen edge of vehemence for it if it had opened before the internet existed.

While its generally in good fun with pop culture crap I tend to believe the overall effect to more important societal issues is becoming detrimental.

I'm plenty excited for this film. Part of the reason for that is that these new Star Wars films are remixes of the old ones: Sure, that means that they aren't ~original~, but it does mean that there's a solid base there that the prequels lacked. I'm looking forward to the story this trilogy tells; as Mikey Neumann said in his essay about TFA: This new trilogy does the right things in bringing the same feelings as the original back in a more modern format.

Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi 2nd trailer
can't wait for being admonished for pointing out that Star Wars XXVII is tired and clichéd, "you're what's wrong with geek culture man".

yeah.

Meanwhile Blade Runner is actually good and interesting and is getting shredded in the theathers. So excuse the **** out of me.
