Star Wars: Episode VII: The Force Awakens (2015)

[nyquillyn]

Paul Greengrass (Bourne Supremacy, Bourne Ultimatum and United 93) would have been an interesting choice for director.

I just started watching Star Wars with my daughter, and I am struck by how awesome Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister) would be as either Obi Wan Kenobi or General Tarkin.

Yeah, I forget where I read this...perhaps on this board, but there's a big push to make him an enemy character in the new star wars films.

They should just remake the OT like that Psycho remake - shot for shot.

Please recast the original Star Wars trilogy using only GoT actors. Thanks in advance.

As the hanger doors, groaning painfully in Hoth's numbing cold, close for the night and appear to seal our heroes fates forever, Chewbacca lets out one last pained and futile roar.

"Hodor!!!!!!!"

"Hodor!!!!!!!"

Man, I wish you didn't consider me an enemy. I feel like we could have been great friends in another life.

That's the perfect nemesis formula, though, chap.

True. Just look at Smallville!

Del Torro probably needs to get on this.

[McParadigm]

God, I hope Disney continues to not have its shit together on this.

It's the most entertaining Star Wars has been in decades.

[epilogue]

Not only J.J. Abrams won't quit directing Star Wars: Episode 7 as some recent rumors suggest but his part in the franchise will be even bigger...

Few months ago when Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy called Abrams’ CAA agent, she's been told Abrams was too deeply engaged in the next Star Trek movie and other side projects to consider the job.

Still, Abrams agreed to meet with Kennedy in Santa Monica. Kennedy had on her side writer Michael Arndt and spin-off consultant and writer Lawrence Kasdan. They were all trying to convince J.J. to direct the movie. Actually Kennedy spent a whole month trying to convince Abrams who finally signed the deal on January 25.

Now why was it so hard to convince J.J. to direct a movie from a franchise that he's been always a fan of? Surely the obligations with Paramount were a reason as well as his family plans (Abrams was supposed to do a small movie and planned to spend more time with his family. Now they have to move from LA to the UK). Actually the main reason for the hard negotiations were because of the scale of involvement Abrams will have on all upcoming Star Wars projects.

I heard from sources close to Abrams that his involvement with Star Wars will be huge. For now he may [not] only be directing Episode 7 but also he will supervise and consult all other side projects from the franchise - games, spin-off movies, TV series etc. And while Kathleen Kennedy will be the managing core of the franchise Abrams will be the creative core through which everything will pass.

Latino Review reports that Ewan McGregor is set to return as a Force Ghost in Episode VII

[darth_vedder]

Good, I was hoping Ewan would return.

I hope they go into more detail about Jedi stuff...training, light saber construction, how to become a ghost, etc...The Clone War cartoon shorts went into it some, and it was more interesting than pretty much anything in the prequels.

[harmless]

I just recently watched the first Star Trek reboot movie and loved it, even though I'm not a Star Trek fan at all. I've heard the second one is good too and really want to see it. Maybe he could do a good job with Star Wars?
