Star Wars The Rise Of Skywalker - the last film in the saga

[Strudel]

It just seems to be lots of setup pretty visuals without anything else to go with it.

It's a 2 minute trailer... what exactly were you expecting?

Some indication about what the hell the story is about rather than some vague Palpatine wet dream. The point at which a load of people ride Space Alien Horses over the back of a Star Destroyer in space was where I kind of lost any interest. It just doesn't look like there's going to be anything to the film other than some pretty set pieces.

[Wrathbone]

Fair enough, they're playing their cards close to their chest, but it's a bit of a stretch to assume the film is going to be nothing but fancy set pieces with no substance on that basis.

[Strudel]

Yeah, I get that. I was just hoping that they would give me something to get excited about after the mess of the last few films (including the spin-offs I mean). At the moment I really would like to be enthusiastic about a Star Wars film (and I'm usually a pretty big fan of JJ Abrams) but they've just not given me anything to really work with because the set pieces just don't interest me like they used to.

Phantom Menace has some nice set pieces and that was still a flaming Gungan turd.

Sums it up nicely



I will see it anyway when it comes to Blu Ray and I rent it for a quid. Disney had no control over the artistic interpretation of this franchise and oh boy does it show.

I don't think I can imagine a more miserable existence than feeling that level of cynicism for something you've not even seen (which I hasten to add is directed at that video, not anyone simply being a bit pessimistic).

[Wrathbone]

Agreed. The unrelenting vitriol for something that hasn't even been released is exceptionally tedious.

The undeserving vitriol after its release which detracts from any valid criticism will be even more tedious.

[Stormbringer]

I find all the negativity surrounding the current trilogy tedious. I enjoy it, my kids enjoy it, I'm really excited about it and I'm excited that this will be the first time I actually take my kids to see Star Wars at the cinema.

[Wrathbone]

Want to join me in a Star Wars anti-hatred bubble for the next few months?

[Stormbringer]

Months? We'll be there for the rest of our lives, man.

Also, funniest comment I've seen on the trailer's YouTube page:

"THE HORSE AWAKENS"

[Snowy]

I doubt it will be much cop, simply because I haven't thought the previous ones were so am not expecting much from this. Might see it in the cinema but way more likely to wait for the inevitable torrent.

For all those who enjoy the series, more power to you, I wish I did!

[Sly Boots]

Last one I saw was Rogue One, not anticipating that to change.

[Achtung Englander]

Personally I am OK in giving Disney a hard time

[Achtung Englander]

muhahaha - another one to annoy you

[Stormbringer]

That guy's even more stupid than the Scottish one, and he was pretty damn stupid. Honestly, these videos are a total waste of time. Their arguments hold absolutely no water.
