    That shot of the X-Wings was just sick.

    Watched it 3 or 4 times already, Erm, I wanted to love it but it's just a bit of a random selection of shots, difficult to feel anything about that aspect really. I must say the X-wing costume looks a little underdone

    @papinacho: is that in a good way?

    I like it, means there could be other lightsaber styles coming along the way. I've always hated that there weren't much differences in Lightsabers apart from hilt design.

    And besides in expanded universe they had all sorts of light weapons. Lets hope they may use some influences in future weaponry

    Not really much to go on here. I wouldn't say I'm disappointed, but I also don't think I really got any additional excitement for the movie by of watching the trailer.

    I think some people are looking at it and thinking, "that could cut his own damn hand off." Maybe it'll work out once we see it in action and it's blocking lightsaber strikes, or some such. I'm very much "wait and see" when it comes to a very short teaser like this. heh

    Oh yeah. I think that's just what's going through some people's heads, and I can see that. Like I said, I'll wait and see how it looks in action. Abrams is a big Star Wars nut, so I'm sure he's thought this out. My thought it, "he can use those saber points (or whatever) to guard against strikes." lol Wait and see... moo hoo ha ha

    I loved it and this made me super excited for it. The random shots were I think the weakest parts but the stormtroopers in the dropship, the X-Wings flying above the water, the Sith in the snowy woods and the Falcon were all more than enough for me. I was always going to see this but now I'm even more excited. We also got a small explanation of why the movie is called The Force Awakens too. All in all, this was a successful trailer in my opinion.

    There were a few questionable things but overall I liked what I saw. The movie does still have an entire year before release so I'm gonna wait till we see a little more to judge.

    Congrats, CV. That was damn fast.

    I think we can all agree that shot of the X-Wings flying over the lake was an optical orgasm. So badass.

    The Millennium Falcon shot looked way too much like Abrams' signature style. Fine for the Star Trek reboot. Not fine for Star Wars Episode VII.

    I'm digging the Stormtrooper's redesign, as I was when they revealed it, but I'm not sure how I feel about their new blaster rifles. Looks a little too modern military to me.

    That Sith dude seems awesome. His lightsaber is dumb though (but I totally love it >_>).

    Speaking of which, http://www.comicvine.com/forums/gen-discussion-1/hilted-lightsabers-1622892/

    In any case, it certainly looks like they are completely 100% scrapping all the Post-RotJ EU concepts, and building totally from scratch. We all kind of knew that was the case from the start, but certainly not to this extent, and it still feels weird to actually witness it on screen. I'm also worried that this trailer did nothing to quell the rumor about that hot garbage of a script that revolves around the plot of some kids finding Luke's severed hand in space or whatever (if you haven't heard that rumor yet, trust me, I didn't make that up).

    the only thing I liked about star wars was the jedi/sith stuff, could care less about han solo / millennium falcon(given it is almost as iconic as the score) but I could care less, that being said I do not know how I feel about the lightsaber shown from the thin "blade" to the hilt.

    also why is a black guy as a stormtrooper upsetting/perplexing people? from what I can see/assume from the trailer this movie is going to either show both sides of the war or this guy seemingly abandoned after a battle and is deciding to switch sides. again pure speculation

    I don't get the stormtrooper "weirdness" either. They've never shown the Empire to be racist in any way. They don't seem to like aliens of course, but human is human to them.

    I'm not proficient on the movie star wars lore, but I believe the "weirdness" may come from the fact that in the second movie "Attack of the Clones" the first stormtroopers are all clones of Jango Fett, and as such all looked the same- not like the man in the trailer. After though I think anyone was alowed to become a stormtrooper so that may explain any confusion.

    He could still be a stormtrooper. Just because he's black doesn't mean he's not a member of the Empire.
