Star Wars: The Force Awakens (12/18/15)

[Deckard]

But as much as I didn't like Star Trek, the quality of it looked like a major motion picture from a studio.

Not a tv production with a low cgi budget.

Literally nothing for me. Wanted to say the costumes being O.T. look cool but the way they're shot is literally fan fiction quality.

I'm not saying the movie is ****ed, but oh man, between this and that Jurassic World trailer, my excitement levels are running on empty.

Seriously, can we go back to this morning when I was hyped about this based on rumors as opposed to deflated from seeing one of the worst trailers in history?

There is no going back

I liked the Raptor Bros scene, the rest was very lackbuster. They should stop showing us footage unless it looks decent

So what you guys are saying is...JJ has performance issues?

 

[Deckard]

I don't know that JJ is solely to blame. I would say whoever ok'd the trailer going out with that quality cgi should probably be let go.

The visual quality will be better when it's done, that's for sure. That's how today's cinema works.

Tho who cares if the rest might end up on the same level of ST-ish mediocre tasteless fanfic.

He can't... ...you know.

Between this and JW, I've read that the CGI sucks, but I would need a point of comparison. What is good use of CGI, either in a trailer or a movie, in the past year or two?

Curious after the trailer. Hmm.

 

[Something Sexy]

I now remember why I rarely hang out in the Star Wars section of this board. That teaser trailer was ****ing awesome.

 

[Irvy]

No unfinished shots should ever be put in a trailer. I'd be pissed as a director if studios pressured me into a pointless cocktease trailer.

This is a body of work that's being showcased to the entire world. Maybe they'll start adding actor screentests as teasers?

Jesus, a lot of hating going down. I have a couple of overall reservations but I think it's great.

As for the CG. I certainly wasn't blown away by it but neither would I point it out as being particularly bad. The Jurrasoc World trailer however.

And the CG will indeed be a lot better by next Christmas. It's a whole year off release. Thought the tone was pretty exciting and different.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Yeah, that's a pretty bitchin' trailer. Nicely done.

I liked the Falcon and X-wing footage - that dude in the snow looked like a GoT ripoff. I guess we'll just have to wait for the 150-second trailer.

So many whiny bitches on this forum.

When you open youtube to listen to some "Revenge of the Sith" soundtrack and foolishly scroll the comments...

Jesus, a lot of hating going down.
