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

[aiman04]

The dialog coach for The Force Awakens has revealed the accent for Rey is Received Pronunciation, which is the accent a newscaster in UK would use, somewhat like the official British accent. Will Luke in turn train Obi-Wan's descendant? Maybe I'm looking too much into this, but if they did make a decision to what accent to use, there must be a reason.

A great promotion would be that if you could sit through the prequels in the theater you get to see The Force Awakens for free and they comp you $50 at the concession stand.

I sure hope we don't find out that Obi Wan was getting busy while on Tattoine between RotS and ANH.

I hope we do.

I heard Lucasfilm is planning to make a full length feature film based on the merchandise.

Hopefully it's not BBC Three Newscaster English.

maybe they should have used Chinese instead.

Alright guys. I need your opinion on this. I've met a girl online and we've been getting to know each other. She told me she has NEVER seen Star Wars before. Shocker, I know.

My question is, should we watch all six films in chronological order starting with the prequels, release order watching the original trilogy first, or just skip the prequels and only watch the original movies?

Always start with the originals, even if you're watching all of them. It's a much better experience. (Wether you watch the prequels after would be your call though.)

Ah, so it's time for this again. I swear, the Star Wars threads on this forum go in circles where the same four or five topics are repeated endlessly.

I'm personally for chronological order, because why not? It's fun to see how the story unfolds in a series of movies where the sequels are the originals, and it'd be interesting to know what someone who experienced them that way the first time thought and if she felt it worked well.

A lot of people prefer release order though, and I can certainly see all the arguments for doing it that way too.

Thank you. I figured to start with the originals. And like you said have the prequels be optional. Because you know, they are time consuming movies.

Time is a flat circle...

That makes sense too. It's a tough decision. Going chronological has a more fluid progressive story telling to it, but that also takes away from some of the original trilogies greatest moments/reveals. Tricky. Tricky.

The Force Awakens takes place after Return of the Jedi, so Jedi should be the last movie you see before heading to the Multiplex in December.

So, I vote for skipping the Prequels altogether (you can always watch them after The Force Awakens), or the Machete order.
