Oh yeah, for some reason I always think that bit is in ep4.

Come on urban, where's the class analysis based on lead actors plummy accents regarding the cooption of the rebellion? Sometimes it's like I don't even know you anymore....

I hadn't even thought about it. I just see women as part of the Leia legacy. Cocksure, tough, fearless woman characters are just central to the star wars universe. I always secretly hoped Boba Fett was female.
Lucas kinda sidelined women in I - III ....I think

This is looking so much better than I expected.

Unfortunately Hollywood has some serious demographic box ticking departments these days, and that's no conspiracy. Progress through market saturation

Stop...Hammertime
Ben Mendelsohn looks great as one of the potential baddies.
The guy they got for the end of Episode III, Wayne Pygram (Scorpius from Farscape) was pretty damn good tbf.
I hope if the rumours of Vader are true and he appears, that they use him like a horror villain, stalking the leads and obliterating them one at a time until the final hero manages to get the plans to Leia on a certain blockade runner, this should be Vader at his most powerful and deadly

You really don't have to be a cynic to realise that Hollywood is an industry first.

Saw the trailer today. Looks good, very interested to see it.
I like the speculation about her being Rey's mum, but I'm not bothered either way. It's pushing it a bit to expect everyone to be related, but tbf it's par for the course in these types of stories. They're not exactly trailblazers on the old break the mould front.

OH!
And the BEST bit of the trailer was the music right at the end. A warped, twisted, ominous version... absolutely lovely. I got proper shivers up my back when that played.

Agreed.
I still watch the Force Awakens trailer regularly (far more so than I'd care to admit
) just to listen to the soundtrack. One more reason why the Lucas prequels felt so wrong and shit, and why Ep VII, and so far Rogue One, have struck a cord with most fans of the original trilogy.

I couldn't take it seriously. It was so totally just a dude shouting "Whoooooo" into a tannoy

See. Totally just a guy shouting "WOOOO WOOOO WOOOO"

Proper break this time
Also I was just trying to make the noise. Loudly. I then remembered that I'm in a flat surrounded by other flats and, though they have decent sound insulation, was probably audible to some actual people.

That's why I liked it. Reminded me of the Planet of the apes horn thing.I couldn't take it seriously. It was so totally just a dude shouting "Whoooooo" into a tannoy

I like to imagine it's all a bit Red Dwarf, and somewhere in the base they have a room for sounds, and there's some guy being told to make the "WOOO WOOO" noise. A bit like them changing the bulb for a red alert.

I've just noticed a friend of mine is the director of this. I knew he was doing something star warsy, I thought it was a TV short.

I've never watched any of the films he's done as of yet. Not sure why. I rarely watch TV shows made by or starring people I know either. It's a problem I should perhaps overcome.
I am torn now about watching this one.
