The only problem is whether or not Disney is willing to go that extra mile and make with the killy killy. No matter how bad this movie is, if the last thirty or twenty minutes are Darth Vader being as badass a mother****er as we all dreamed he could be, then it will all be worth it.

I wouldn't put it past Disney to actually follow through with a bit of murder. I was a bit shocked to even see blood in Episode 7. It was a bit strange.

Some cheesy dialogue but I have to admit, this movie looks fantastic.

So long as it has the Vader we've been waiting to see since the ending credits of Return of the Jedi I will be at least half won over. So long as Darth Vader is a thundering badass with little to no reference to the Anakin Skywalker of the prequel trilogy I will be a happy man, if only for his scenes.

Please, god, we've humanized him enough. After forty years it's time to be self-indulgent and use him to show off just how awesome the Dark Side and red lightsabers really are.

I sincerely hope it does well on all fronts. I still think The Force Awakens is amazing and although I'm not traditionally a huge fan of spin offs, this one could be good.

This trailer is literally on par with The Force Awakens trailer in terms of how exciting it has me. I can't ****ing wait now.

I'm as excited maybe more as I was with The Force Awakens.

I actually think it's great how they've handled the EU...it's not written off, they are "legends". The galaxy is a big place, so surely the stories of these larger than life heroes are embellished or altogether made up by the people living in it. A legend also implies there is a hint of truth to it, so the writers can cherry pick the stuff from the EU that they like. I think it's win win for everyone.

That said, when I first heard about the spin offs, I wasn't too excited. It seemed like it would be Star Wars overkill. But now that the trailers have been out...holy ****, this may be better than TFA.

If they don't make some Obi-Wan movies at some point, I'm gonna be upset. Ewan McGregor has already said he wants to do it.
