Guys
There's a rumor that Gosling is playing young Luke Skywalker in the flashback
Guys
I don't think I'll be able to conceal my hype at that point
Guys, if that happens
I will have to see this movie at least 3 times even if it sucks.

So JJ Abrams is shooting this in straight IMAX 70MM, like Chris Nolan does, with no 3D added and with focus on film.
Thank god, that's awesome, 3D can be okay but I'm glad they are going with that format as I've always loved it (Dark Knight was awesome in IMAX and so was Cloverfield) and I think that format is perfect for Star Wars.

What's really cool is they shot some scenes on oldschool super 38MM and they are using editing effects to give the film the feel that the whole thing is shot on super 38 just like the original trilogy was.
That's fucking great how oldschool Abrams is going on this. Perfect, no fucking 3D for Star Wars (though the other Star Wars directors probably won't do this and some of them will probably go the 3D route, still, based JJ Abrams)

I also love how they're using practical effects and stages and models, cause there was that leak showing Millenium Falcon and X-wing models.
Obviously the film is still going to be CGI heavy, and Andy Serkis has confirmed that he's helping with mocapping, but godbless JJ for incorporating that oldschool shit in there. This movie will be based.

haha another person from Game Of Thrones just got cast in Episode 7: the sword trainer from Season 1.
Want to start seeing casting announcements for the spinoff. Also a title for Episode 7 would be nice.

So the newest rumor about the plot of this is that the main villain is Luke Skywalker Probably bullshit but I think that would be cool. There were a bunch of signs in Return of the Jedi that he was headed down that path.

Anthony Daniels says Episode 7 is better than Empire Strikes Back.
Also the trailer is expected before the end of the year. My guess is with the Hobbit.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens
Sounds like a bad videogame title, not a movie title.
Whatevs I've long ago decided I'm seeing this opening day. Probably the instant JJ was announced as the director.

Leaked trailer description, supposedly, from 4chan. The trailer is supposed to air with the Hobbit: Battle of Five Armies. I will probably be more hyped for this trailer than the Hobbit movie: >Female voice over of a sith played by Lupita Nyong'o "Death and Destruction is waiting for you...the dark side is supreme." >Daisy Ridley sitting on a hill, starwarsy outfit, binoculars, looking at the sky, dreamy expression. >Bazaar, huge explosion in the sky, people running around, panic. >Burning Tie Fighter falling from the sky, navigating through debris, pilot catapults, parachute opens, helmet falls of, it's John Boyega. >Han Solo sitting opposite to some fat alien character in cantina (we only see back o the head of the alien), Han shoots him: "You don't tell me what to do". >Star Wars theme starts playing, montage of short scenes: >- Stormtroopers in a jungle. >- Space dogfight around a trade federation ship with scaffolding. >- Concerned Leia in what I think is the senate. >- Lupita Nyong'o in alien make up with a fake smile. >- C3PO, R2D2 and a new green robot similar to astrodroid but with separate ball head. >- Adam Driver smiles than he frowns and growls, his face gets really menacing, he's piloting a starship. >- Some more scenes that were too short to remember them. >Everything goes black, calming female voice: "It's up to you now.", blue lightsaber turns on, it's John Boyega and Daisy Ridley, John is holding the lightsaber, they're pretty excited about it. >Titles.
If that's real that Han Solo line will hype me the fuck up.
