It will probably be pretty cool even with the Disney BS attached to it. It's not like Star Wars was ever very violent anyways and JJ Abrams did a good job on those Star Trek flicks already. I expect an action packed special effects fest for the new Star Wars.

Apparently there is a bit of an uproar because the guy in that trailer is "a little short for a stormtropper". They say it doesn't make sense since Jango Fett wasn't "short". Jesus I wish people could at least wait for the movie to see if it all makes sense or not. :L He may not even be an actual stormtrooper but was disguised as one. Also it happens about half a century after Fett was cloned countless times. Maybe they cloned a "short" guy or maybe they don't just rely on clones as stormtroopers anymore.

I thought it was established canon that they started recruiting stormtroopers instead of using clones. :noidea:

I was thinking these same thing. Clones weren't used after the clone wars were over or at least not too long after that but I could be wrong?


It may not be of interest to anyone but I do know the guy narrating the trailer was Andy Serkis aka Sméagol/Gollum from LOTRs.

Wouldn't that depend on the count of their micro-chlorines?

Thanks science...

...for ruining everything.

Good casting. I'm hoping she can do both the Star Wars spin-off and continue as Black Cat in the Spider-Man franchise. And I can't wait until there's some solid details on the future of Boba Fett in these movies. I've heard that Michael Fassbender is being considered. Make it happen.

That would be incredible.
