Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (USE SPOILER TAGS!)

[halon]

I would love to see a Yoda trilogy and something about the beginnings of the force(jedi/sith). I love Boba Fett as much as the next person but I really don't want to see a movie about him.

I'm indifferent about the planned Han movie. Seems they want to beat the original trilogy with a dead horse. Whatever.

And of course...Darth Bane would be kick ass.

Oscar Isaac:

"I can’t speak for the cast and crew, I can just speak for myself, but for me I thought, Don’t you want to wait so you can get the real thing? But it creates excitement for it. I don’t think these little leaks necessarily ruined watching the trailer. And also, the [plot theories] that get that formulated based on these things — they couldn’t be more far off-base."

I'm more curious about the Imperial Guards. Will there be a new Emperor?

Andy Serkis:

“As if I can tell you! I can’t tell you anything. It’s going to be brilliant. The director, JJ Abrams, is doing an amazing job. He is such a big fan of the original movies and it is a great script and a very, very good story. It’s amazing to be a part of it.”

I'd struggle to be excited by just one Yoda stand-alone film, never mind three of them.

That is a badass ship.

The red on ships were used on diplomatic ships, so it will be interesting how that plays out in the new film. It didn't work out too well for the Blockade Runner or the one in The Phantom Menace!

I don't know about Apollo 13, but it reminds me of pizza.

I don't know about pizza, but I clearly remember this scene...

Apollo 13 (7/11) Movie CLIP - Square Peg in a Round Hole (1995) HD - YouTube

EDIT:
Well, duh, I get it now, square pizza, circular pizza...whatever, they're all good.

I'm with you on that one.

One Yoda story would be enough. I don't need a Yoda origin story that stretches out into a 8-9 hour trilogy.

Ha, fair point. Would be funny if this one was blown up in the same scene it was introduced, after landing on Coruscant or something. Would feel like a bit of a waste.

It would be funny if we find out Yoda had a learning disability and that is the reason he talks the way he does. He overcomes it to become a bad ass Jedi master.

Doing a Yoda origin story in the form of, basically, an underdog sports movie? I'm not sure if this is brilliant or horrifying.

Darth Vader?

Or just Hasbro making more sales on past character, though the list is for Episode VII line.

It might be that, or it might be because

[Show spoiler]the main villain has found Vader's mask from Endor and is using it for something or other. (per spoiler leaks)

[camper]

Isn't there supposedly Vader flashbacks?

Remember, this is a toyline where a figure was made of characters who were on screen for fractions of a second so if there is a flashback with Vader than figures of him would be a no brainer.

‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ Will Feature Three Actors From ‘The Raid’

This is an unexpected yet awesome piece of Star Wars news to kick off the year of The Force Awakens. Twitch is reporting that three of the main actors from Gareth Evans’ The Raid and The Raid 2 have roles in J.J. Abrams‘ Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The actors in question are the lead actor Iko Uwais, Yayan Ruhian (who played Mad Dog and Prakoso in the films) and Cecep Arif Rahman, who played “The Assassin” and fought in the kitchen finale of the sequel (seen above right, with Uwais).

Nothing beyond that is known but /Film sources have hinted to us one of the film’s action sequences might have been choreographed by the team. Read more about The Raid Star Wars news below.

Twitchfilm posted the report. And if there’s any site that would know about The Raid stars, it’s Twitch. Their editor Todd Brown is a producer on both films so this is about as rock-solid as you can get. The only way it would be any more factual is if Lucasfilm posted about it, but that hasn’t happened yet.

So what will Uwais, Ruhian and Rahman be doing in the movie? On screen, each has proved they can work not only with martial arts but all matter of weapons so you have to think they’ll be in a big action scene. But they’re important behind the scenes too. Uwais and Ruhian choreographed the films, so it’s very possible they were hired both to act and work out a scene. That, of course, remains unconfirmed but is what our sources told us. One of the action scenes will be choreographed by the guys behind The Raid.

No matter what their specific roles are this is just another instance of Abrams really going practical with The Force Awakens. There are few better practical action movies in the past decade than the two Raid movies, so bringing them aboard feels smart. (My guess for their roles: Working with Gwendoline Christie’s character in some way.)

Pretty awesome news, would you agree? What do you think of the The Raid Star Wars news?

Andy Serkis, and now 3 badass actors from the Raid 2 film? Yes please!
