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

[lowlight79]

I have no idea who josh trank is but he's directing one of the stand alone films
http://m.hollywoodreporter.com/entry/view/id/357006

he directed Chronicle, it was a underrated film.

[stip]

I think I'm more concerned with the writers than the directors

of course you are

[McParadigm]

Writers. Ha.

It'll actually be semi-interesting to see just how predictable this thing will actual be. My "expect to see this" checklist already includes:

- "I've got a bad feeling about this."
- "Tatooine is a remote desert planet" landscape shot...multiple suns optional.
- Somebody references Jabba and/or Boba Fett...probably in a way that's just slight enough for people to feel like it's an "in" joke even though everybody gets it.
- Carbonite. Just...something something carbonite.
- The Millenium Falcon is a piece of junk. That, or someone points out that the Kessel Run is usually finished much faster than Han's much-boasted about time.
- Some kind of "Han shoots first" joke.
- Leia and Han bicker about something. He probably calls her "Princess," or there's a nerf herder line of some sort.
- Han and Luke keep track of who owes who more.
- Imperial Walkers.
- Either Darth Vader's image, or a villain who is styled to remind us of him.
- "Here we go again."
- Someone talks about hate, and all the problems it can cause.
- A younger character behaves rebelliously, and a joke is made about how the rebels are now the old folks.
- We see an underside shot of a Star Destroyer as it passes over. The Imperial March is a given.
- Luke pulls an Obi-Wan... Cuts off an arm or impersonates a monster call. Either way, someone loses an arm or hand.
- We will see the inside of a cantina. Could be THE cantina, in which case a character will warn someone that it is a hive of villainy, and then when they walk in it will be quiet and peaceful.
- A slave girl costume reference.
- Possibly a very slight nod-and-wink to Jar Jar hate.
- A huge boss ship. Probably black.
- Either a quip about facing dangerous odds, or a comment about how no sane person would ever fly into an asteroid field. Han may well be the one who makes this joke.
- Lazy joke about Luke and Leia kissing.

spoiler that shit.

- multiple suns optional.

is it really, though?

[McParadigm]

Why it took him a whole month to write, I'll never know.

Monster/Alien from another movie franchise makes a cameo.

[Norah]

- I'm too old for this shit.

[epilogue]

- Slusho something or other. Bank on it.

[McParadigm]

- Slusho something or other. Bank on it.

Yeah, but that's just one of those no-effort personalizations that a lot of directors mistake for quirky cleverness.

[stip]

i wonder if there will be a tongue in cheek reference to jar jar

[Alex]

yeah

[Whitey McTeeth]

I hope Jar Jar makes out with an old Carrie Fisher.

STEPHEN KING DOES IT SO WHY CAN'T I

[epilogue]

I hope Luke opens his closet to pull out a fresh Jedi robe and Jar Jar is hanging there with his throat slit, eyes bulging, tongue hanging out to the right. Maybe he'll have a hand written signed pinned to his chest with knife.

How many pages will this thread be when this movie actually comes out next Christmas?

What are you thinking? You got a figure you're aiming for?

So basically you don't want any of the composite parts of Star Wars to feature in the next Star Wars movie?
