That was sick.
I was just looking at the cast on imdb to see who one of the people in the trailer was when I saw this:
First I've heard of that! Would be awesome if he is in it though.Quote:

The Force Awakens!!!!!! :rock:
In the words on Daniel Bryan...
YES! YES! YES!
does anyone know if the movies are going to follow the noves and whatnot?
That last shot. :yes:
Looks good from the trailer. Still trying to keep low expectations though, don't want to be disappointed.
Well it looks much better than Abrams Star Trek. It really depends on if I like those new characters. But at least the old cast is back, hopefully for more than just a cameo (IE: Spock :2far:).
That was a damn good trailer...got me pumped to see it.
that was weird...
I'm hyped.
Yes and no.
The old EU was erased by Marvel so they could start fresh. But they realize how many great idea's, characters, storylines, etc. within the EU. So while it wont directly follow the old EU novels and comics, it will often heavily use material from.
For example.
This is Kylo Ren from the new material:

This is Darth Revan from the old material:

Revan was an ancient, very powerful sith lord in the old material.
With the new material Kylo Ren is a.... sith historian or archaeologist, who found Revan's remains.
To back this idea even more Disney erased the EU like a month after they bought the franchise. They however did not erase Revan's story in the old EU until just two months ago.
Possible spoilers here so i will wrap them, but this information is really just pieces we in the SW geek community have pieced together about episode 7.
Spoiler...
Kylo Ren is Han and Leia's first child.
He becomes obsessed with his grandfathers legacy and in the process becomes obsessed with jedi and sith archaeology. In this process he becomes a sith lord himself.
Part of that story actually comes from the old EU with Jacen Solo (Han/Leia's first born). After a decade of war Jacen Solo grew tired of the electoral process not stopping war, not stopping killing, was a POW and tortured for 2 years, watched Chewie die, his little brother Anakin die, etc. so he became obsessed with his grandfather and what he wanted to accomplish, but felt he could take power himself and be decisive without falling to the dark side. Of course this didnt happen and he became Darth Caedus. Because Caedus killed Lukes wife and Ben's mother, Luke felt his son nor him, could not kill Caedus without vengeance or hate. So his twin sister Jaina Solo had to kill him.
The whole thing was an extended story line that was basically the Prequel trilogy done correctly and many think Disney is taking a lot from this story.

Basically we think Kylo is taking the place of Caedus and the story will arch similarly to the Legacy of the Force series.

Whole cast is lame IMO. Only one I give a shit about is Mark Hamill. If this were just about old Luke Skywalker, then I would be interested. But from rumours, he is barely going to be in it. :dsp:
Yah... this is some of the best casting ive ever seen. They're spot on with everyone.
Mark is too old to have a movie focused on him. Had this happened in 95, it would be a different conversation. But its not 95.
After the very first teaser came out some speculated that Gwen Christie could be that character. I mean... how awesome would it have been to see Brianna of Tarth as a sith lord? But those idea's were quickly dispatched. We know who plays who now.
Shes the chrome trooper, who is actually speculated to be a force attuned character and many think she has a lightsabre attached to her rifle.
