New Star Wars trailer last night on TV

[Larry_OHF]

<font color=skyblue>Last night, a few minutes before 9pm, on FOX, George Lucas released the first real trailer to the upcoming movie on TV before he let the theatres have it! In fact, if you want to see it in theatres, it will be tagged to the movie Robots. But to those that flipped over there a few minutes before 9pm, we got to see it first.

What did I think of it? Not much except for ONE thing. Anakin looked so freaking cool with his evil eyes and determined march to destruction. He was so full of hate it was seeping out of the screen! I think this will be the best of the three "new" episodes that has been done.

It looks like you can see it online if you join some sort of "star wars/George Lucas is god fanclub" type thing... for $40 bucks. Lucas is a greedy ass, but then again, it's the only horse he's got, and he's gonna beat it till it's just little splatters of goo.

My expectations are exceedingly low for this movie, most likely a defense mechanism so I'm not furious at paying $7.50 for a ticket, and waiting for 2 hours in line at the theater, I had a link to a pretty good fake trailer, I'll see if I can dig it up.

He's actually trying to get Harrison Ford on board for another Indiana Jones flick, Ford I believe has commented that he'll only do it if they agree to kill off Indy permanently.

The only horse he's got? ROFL. Have you looked at the game aisle lately? It ain't greed -- he's got more than he could want.

And the last two movies were not so bad -- certainly better than Jedi. Yes, both of them. Better than Jedi.

Morgie, there are a number of porn site links on that link you posted - probably unintentional, but I had to remove it unfortunately. Sorry mate. --- Memnoch ED: Besides, the link didn't work anyway.

dang, I had it downloaded, but I think I deleted it...

I apologize for the links, and any mental scarring that may have arisen from them.

that's the file itself, it is a hefty 11.3MB, and there are some off color jokes, and a rather tasteless pregnancy test, but it is funny.

I hope thats the methamphetamins talking... The minute that Jar Jar entered on frame #2322 of phantom menace, the whole Starwars universe collapsed.
I mean the Ewoks were cool but Gungans... come on..

I thought the preview looked dang good, it could totally redeem lucas and the series.

After ESB the whole story to a leap off the cliff into bad cinema land. Frustrating because ESB was such an awesome move. I'm starting to think that the first two were flukes and what we've seen since then is all he's capable of... he really should let real writers take over the script work.

Anyway... Star Wars is the only Cinematic horse he's got to ride, games are a whole different profit line, but even on the gaming side he's beating the Star Wars horse.
