The Force Awakens Japanese Trailer

>>13464502
Black guy dies, girl becomes the jedi.
Sorry for spoiling it.

>>13464502
I thought I was gonna hear some funny Japanese dubbing.
I was disappointed.

Whats the cast like?

>>13464537
He's the black love interest for Rey that's progressive. So when he gets killed by Kylo, the force will "awaken" in her. Then in 8 we'll get a more permanent black character. Maybe even Lando

>>13464855
Certainly the most likable character.

>>13464514
I doubt he's going to die with the dick sucking Abrams is giving him.

No idea where you're getting that from honestly. Corpse at the end is pretty clearly Chewie given the hair. You can see his bandolier in the bottom right corner to.

>>13464958
What's better: dying in a kamikazi attack against new generation of space Nazis or getting crushed by a falling moon?

I still don't understand which character is the main character. This is gonna be a problem for the story.

she goin be a jedi

>>13467410
it's probably both the girl and the black guy sharing equal MC role

>>13467151
Rebels and the short stories are, and they have TIEs fly in atmosphere.
In fact there's even a rivalry between Ground based squadrons and Space borne ones. So dumbass on you.

>>13464855

No dorkly, but like the previous two, the story is taken from his perspective.

>>13464858

That is a fuckhuge engine. And mind you thats only from a regular SD.

>>13467015

And that stops him from being worshiped after his death... how? Remember, the Original Trilogy is a legend now. They are stories and myth.

>>13467410

You realize you can have two main characters, right? Both Ray and Finn could be our protagonists.

>>13467752
Next you gunna tell me rey and finn are siblings and JarJar is kylo ren

>>13467752
>You realize you can have two main characters, right?
And how often does that work? Exactly.

>>13467785
Ani must be avenged.

>>13467823

I mean JJ already did dual-leads in his Trek movies with Kirk and Spock.

>>13467837
>jarjar did not appear in the original trilogy because he didn't want to fight anakin

>>13467823
irrelevant, the amount of times it works, or rather the inability of many story tellers in presenting two main characters well doesn't stop the fact that deuteragonist exists.

Nerds are racists and fangirls are fucking racists so I doubt Finn will get that much participation after Episode VII. In fact, he may die. If they released the trailer so late it means there was a huge fight backstage

>>13467896
This is far from the first trailer, dingus.

>>13467896
Racists are racists.
SF fans are among the least racist people.
They live in fantasy future worlds, not the real one.

Finn thing is indicative of how mainstream SW is.
Can you imagine a similar backlash with Star Trek?

>>13467911
Well consider Star Trek is Tumblr the Sci-Fi Series that's to be expected.

>>13467911
>SF fans are among the least racist people
Really? From my experience, they're a bunch of middle-aged white men that hate everything outside their secluded little world, what mean women and minorities. There are tons of races on sci-fi but the hero is a "relatable" white male lead

>>13467923
Did we miss our daily white people hate today? Thanks for the reminder.

>>13467868
Not irrelevant, since it's rarely done well and probably won't be here. It's a bad sign.

>>13467785
Kylo ren is Darth Vader's bastard kid

>>13467923
More hyperbole.
All you've said was you live in a white majority country with fiction geared for them from 40 years ago.

>>13467923
You're experience is limited to Hollywood's production of action movies that have laser pistols and spaceships in them. Read a book or two.

Nigga wat? They answered your question.

My main point is the plot probably being shit, not that it's never done well.

>>13468012
What BOOKS
There hasn't been any scifi books in almost 30 years ever since the bastard Asimov died. Unless you call that self published tripe that lines the bookstores actual scifi books, which would be accurate as saying bleach is a drinkable substance.

>>13468120
If you wanted good plot you shouldn't have bothered with American sci-fi. Americans, disgusting fuckers I swear.

WHERE THE FUCK IS LUKE?

>>13468165
Well then, looks like you'll have to read older stuff, now won't you? Yeah, there hasn't been much Science Fiction published recently*. That means there hasn't been much Science Fiction published recently.

*but decidedly nonzero. Banks, Wolfe, ...

>>13468021
There is nothing fucking passive about me, I'll tell you that much.

>>13467015
It's more like
>I will finish-- whatyoustarted

>>13468195
>Yeah, there hasn't been much Science Fiction published recently
Oh they have, they're just all fucking shit because no one fucking tries anymore, this has to be the most worthless, self-centered, egotistic with nothing to show for it, pathetic generation that has ever graced this worthless pile of dirt and moisture, even your filthy Mongol ancestors did more, at least fighting and destroying empires is SOMETHING. What do you do? Write shitty sci-fi light novels that read like you just walked out from tvtropes that's what

>>13468175
Leia is pregnant. With Luke inside her. That's right.

>>13468265
Do you have anything better to do other than spew stupidity at every opportunity? Wait of course not you're American aren't you, practically your fucking job.

>>13468172
Okay, but I like Star Wars. Faggotr.

>>13466808

>Johnny Voyager, the FORCE GHOST

>>13468229
That's a really unrelated leap in logic, and doesn't really follow from the conversation. Are you just trying to make /m/ angry? You're going in the wrong direction, if so. Instead of just saying things suck and hoping you accidentally hit on something that another poster cares about, try saying that something is really, really good.

This will work out better for you because you'll be more likely to attract an opponent who is motivated by dislike and anger, which will lead to a longer spar.

>>13468175
No one gives a shit about Luke. People like Han Solo, that's why Harrison Ford became a star after the OT

>b-but muh joker

Only nerds give a shit

>>13467015

while I mostly agree with this statement I have encountered some oddly racist sci-fi fans, wouldn't fuck anyone that isn't a white human female but would totally go for a twi'lek dancer, I'm not sure where the line is on that one.

>>13467969
What if he's Padme and Obi-Wan's kid. The ROTS novel hints at it.

Its not a good idea to post pictures of yourself on a Bangladesh fingerpainting board.

>>13467752
>the Original Trilogy is a legend now. They are stories and myth.
This doesn't make any sense whatsoever though? Is the Vietnam War a myth? Is the Second World War a myth? How can events that took place about 30 - 40 years ago be completely relegated to a position of "stories and myth"?

>>13469005
Keep in mind that within 17 years the Jedi went from "those wizard samurai who are fighting our war with their magic kung-fu" to "ancient crackpot religion". I think it's safe to assume that everyone in the Star Wars universe suffers from severe memory loss.

>>13469005
The actual length of time is a bit skewed, yes, but it's no different than the way generals from WWII and further back are trumped up, regardless of how well their exploits are documented. Not to mention there may be a plot-related reason for all that.

>>13469005
I suppose it is possible Rey is asking this question due to her being raised in what amounts to "The OTHER ass end of the galaxy" with seemingly no real infrastructure outside the odd spaceport equipped town, the amount of knowledge of the Galactic Civil War and the Old Republic might be very limited.

>>13467896
>If they released the trailer so late it means there was a huge fight backstage

Except the trailer that was released last month, and the Instagram trailer before that, and the trailer before that, and the trailer before that.

Wouldn't interest in Jedi get you killed in the Galactic Empire unless the Siths wanted you alive?

>>13469156
Yes, they also banned any and all research on them according to Lando's comic, the empire has made many active measures to scrub the Jedi out of public knowledge.
It's still a bit hard to swallow I'm sure some of you will find, an Order of Space Samurai Monks who saved the galaxy time after time again being so forgotten to the point even the force itself is brought under question in a fair brief timespan, though I suppose anyone who DID know otherwise likely were told to keep their mouth stapled shut about it.
Supposing the Empire even gave them a choice at all.

>>13468420

I always preferred Luke to Han to be honest, at least partially because I always preferred the X-Wing and snubfighters to the Millenium Falcon, but also because Luke was just cooler to me. Sure, he starts off whiny, but he becomes a space monk with a lightsaber who goes on an adventure round the galaxy - Han ain't got shit on that frankly.

I'm aware I'm in the minority, but I don't really mind. I'm always not bothered that he's not showing up in the trailers. Hell, I don't even mind if he doesn't show up much in the first film, because I'm willing to wait and see what they do with him. I don't need him to feature heavily just because I like him.

>>13468982
Nah we need one virgin.

>>13468982
Does it really hint at it?

>>13468982

So Anakin got kekolded?

>>13467917
No. People in the Star Trek universe don't care.
Tumblr people care a whole fucking lot about people who don't care. Anyone who doesn't care as much as they do is part of the problem.

In Star Trek, no one thinks twice about a bald guy. They've reached true Bald Acceptance.
On Tumblr, if you're not actively preaching Bald Acceptance and somehow framing it as both disability and NOT a disability, you're a follically-privileged cis scum sending out aggressive micro-triggers by refusing to bow and scrape to baldie.

>>13469352
He certainly thinks so (in the novel). It's sort of what sparks the duel.

>>13469401
So it's the difference between mere tolerance and embrace to the point of zeal?

>>13469346
Mostly from Anakin's POV (though there's some suggested sexual tension on Padme's part too). It's been a while since I've read the book but basically Anakin thought Padme was cheating on him with Obi-Wan.

>>13469110
Before the trailer was released, people were complaining about why Disney didn't release a real trailer with the movie's premiere being so close. The execs tried with the Star Wars friday and shit but there was no trailer yet, only a teaser. Also, JJ didn't sign for making another movie and the producer said she want a female director for the next one, what imply JJ is out of the project. Star Wars was JJ's dream project, he's a huge SW nerd, so he'd be more than willing to sign for the entire trilogy if there wasn't backstage drama

>>13467923
>Really? From my experience

Then you have no experience. Geek culture being hostile to women and minorities is a media myth. All it takes is going to a lan party, an RPG session, a con, etc to dash that myth to the ground.

You spewing that shit just proves, yes there are such thing as fake geeks.

Fucking tumblr.

>>13469668
That reminds me, anyone have the comparison pic where some fighting game is more inclusive than a conference about diversity or something?
Shit's hilarious.

>>13469496

So?

Does JJ personally appointing Colin Trevorrow as the director of Episode IX indicate some vague infighting, too? Why the fuck should you care if the producer apparently said they wanted a female director for VIII?

Just because JJ's a 'huge SW nerd' doesn't mean he has some sort of obligation to man the helm across an entire trilogy.

>>13469496
>Also, JJ didn't sign for making another movie and the producer said she want a female director for the next one
Abrams was only signed for and intending to do one film from the beginning, and Episode VIII and IX have already had confirmed directors, Rian Johnson and Colin Trevrow, for months now.

>>13468165
I don't think you ever picked up a sci-fi book in your life. There is a host of great authors out there.

Blame the people who bitched hard about how the prequels didn't have X-Wings, TIE fighters and so on. Disney are just following the money, for which I can't honestly blame them. There'll probably be a handful of new fighters in the second or third films, but even then the two big ones are likely to remain the X-Wing and TIE Fighter.

>The idea that women are literally useless and catalysts for the destruction of a nerd community is still massively ingrained.
Because most women are catalysts for destroying nerd communities. They dabble and then demand things be changed for them. Of course there will always be dumbfuck guys, even outsiders, who join in to "give women a voice". Just look at the western anime community. When some bitch complains about some fanservicey show we get near-middle age normies coming out of nowhere and tweeting about how anime is problematic and Japan needs to be forced to change. And of course you have the closet viewers, who are probably watching Valkyrie Drive as we speak, turning around and agreeing with them.

Just look at the dumb bitch from the UN calling for the criminalization of lolicon. She comes from a country whose leaders are plainly known to be actual pedophiles who have abused phonebooks worth of kids with little repercussion and whose police allow rapes of underaged kids to occur almost freely. Immediately westerners who didn't give two shits about pedophilia or lolicon even once before in their lives jump to agree with her. The ultra "progressive" types are particularly bad since they're the only group with members publicly trying to normalize pedophilia.

There is no geek culture anymore. What was once a refuge for outsiders was first appropriated by hipsters, then by the mainstream.

First off, I'm old. We played dungeons and dragons in the mid 80's when normies thought it was a satanist cult ritual, in the 90's we were copying VHS fansubs of anime, and rented out classrooms at local colleges to have viewing nights. The social circle we were part of crossed over into a bunch of other groups (comics, videogames, anime, model building, tabletop, etc), and we all kind of connected through local dialup bulletin board systems (yes, pre-internet). We'd arrange game nights, swap meets, model building nights, through BBSes.

All in all it was about 30% female (most of whom were from the anime clubs), and we were extremely racially diverse. And while our interests sometimes only tangenially intersected, the common thread was that we were all outsiders in our own highschools and colleges.

All this bullshtit about miysogeny and racism that has cropped up in the last few years has nothing to do with the legitimate outsider/geek culture; it's all stemming from the douchbags who have latched on.

>it's all stemming from the douchbags who have latched on.
It's simply made up. When liking sexy characters qualifies as misogyny it's pretty clear the self-proclaimed victims are just grasping at straws.

>>13473789

There are pretty legitimate cases of assholes groping cosplayers (read: popular girls who need even more attention) at big cons. That shit never happened when conventions were glorified swap meets, maybe because everyone knew eachother, or maybe because 'geek culture' was actually a thing back then, not a label applied to pop culture. Althought we NEVER used the term "Geek" or "Nerd", those were insults flung at us by others.

But you're 100% about the current moral panic. It's no different than the "D&D is satanism", "Rap Music causes gang violence", and "Videogames cause school shooting". We've been down this road countless times, and the current "everything is misogeny" line is completely horseshit.

I keep watching the trailers hoping something will spark.
But I'm just so not compelled by this movie.
The prequels sucked, but I remember seeing the trailers and being a bit intrigued and having some questions in my mind.
Everything just seems so damn status quo in this movie I feel like I already know everything that's going to happen, and everything that's going to appear.

>>13473908

Of course not! No TRUE FAN could ever like anything that isn't from the original trilogy.

>>13476875
Very eloquent summation of the point. Pretty much captures everything wrong that has happened with "nerds" since the beginning of the 20th century: as computers and gaming and sci-fi/fantasy stuff becomes more and more mainstream and consumed by low-IQ plebs, these same plebs (who are incredibly susceptible to political suggestion because they cannot think abstractly) increasingly demand things be changed for them, particularly to be PC. And meanwhile, corporations consistently dumb things down regardless of any political concerns, simply because dumb is what sells to the lowest common denominator, which is the largest audience.

I have met plenty of intelligent and genuinely nerdy female nerds in my life, but they are not the problem. The problem are the "nerds" who are not nerds at all and want to make everything political all the time, because they never had a genuine deep interest in the mental worlds of nerds in the first place. Just stupid political dilettantes. The kind of people who have rebel insignia tattoos and bumper stickers on their cars, nowadays.

Yeah, but anyone who knows anything about lightsabers will tell you that that is a crude imitation of a lightsaber. Lightsabers are supposed to be a single projected beam, you can't effectively swing a weapon like that if the weight of the blade is constantly in flux and shaking around like that unstable mess.

Lightsabers are also supposed to have a very super-confined heat to them, that's why they are able to cut through a bulkhead, but don't fry people when you stick it up, next to their throat...

All in all, I can appreciate what JJ is trying to do with that design, but that doesn't stop it from being a bad design.

Also, props for the handguards. It's an interesting idea.
