Disney acquires Lucasfilm; Episode VII proposed for 2015

We all would. And I agree: it doesn't mean anything.

I've been wowed before by background stories, "Making of…" reports or books… but still, what is being made can in the end only be judged by what actually winds up on the screen. Not what's on set, not even by the atmosphere on location. Crystal Skull was 'damn fun to make' as Ford put it at the time, the mood was great, everything looked great, there was the "no CGI" promise…. and then we got Geriatric Jones, Mutt and the Flying CGI Monkeys and gophers…

Still I am extremely curious about what Abrams is making, I am going to see it the moment it comes out, but I am also keeping my fingers crossed…

Maybe he was just paid by Disney to cry. My bad attitude coming out where there's no optimism....

Hehehe… well, it's allowed.

I seen the first showing of all 3 prequels. It was a struggle to get tickets each time. If I get hyped after seen the trailers. I might go through the trouble of getting the first showing of ep7

We all will.... you know that.

Here's Kevin's smith explanation at 35 min. I stopped watching it after he talked about details....got worried as not to spoil it..

I'm gonna watch it.

please let us know if there's any spoilers. He started talking about the set about how theres no CGI and a bunch of action going on, so I stopped it....

Nope, everything you read is basically what he said.

Dammit. Me want spoilers! But no way he'd be allowed to reveal anything... that's how JJ rolls.

Quite.

I kinda like the idea they built the actual Millennium Falcon as complete set, both the inside and the outside are used as a set. Certainly a first.

Potential plot leak out! Possibly fake. Now the puzzle is whether we want to blow big spoilers...

I saw that. I read the first line then stopped reading then got mad at myself. I wish they would not post that news even if it is a fake cause it may not be

Why is that a spoiler then? It says nothing about plot.

There was something released about the possible opening scene along with the plot that follows after it.

I read the entire thing.

If true, and it sounds legit, I like it. But of course, the vast majority of people are already crying about how weak it sounds and already declaring it will be the worst installment yet....all over a few details.

God bless you J.J.

omg. your post is giving clues....

better be all fake

Was just thinking, the first 5 min of ANH made it the success back in 77....

i dont think JJ would allow such detailed leakage. it just reeks of internet BS.

Yup.

Well, I myself am rather hesitant. I still fear a nostalgia fest like JJ did with Super 8 and ST:ID...

Then you better pray the plot leaks are false. 😉

Seriously though, if I'm worried about anything, it's that they're going to play this movie really safe....like bringing back all the characters and imagery from the OT to try and distance itself as far from the PT as possible. Maybe this falls into your nostaglia category as well.

From everything I've read over the last several months they are trying to make this as close as possible to the old films....which I guess will be a crowd pleaser, but I was hoping for something new, bold and imaginative. I want a movie that takes a risk and brings something fresh to the SW universe.

Maybe it will be. Time will tell.

It seems that way so far, but there's gotta be some new elements. I'm more worried about that Disney is gonna rake it to death until it's no longer good within the next 10 years.....

I guess you can look at it, if ep 7 sucks, maybe ep 8 will be better. Remember when ep 2 was a step up from ep 1.....

Starting to wonder how each movie will end:

Ep 1: ended on good note
Ep 2: ended on bad note
Ep 3: ended on bad note
Ep 4: ended on good note
Ep 5: ended on bad note
Ep 6: ended on good

My guess

Ep 7: end on bad note
Ep 8: end on good note
Ep 9: end on bad note
