Good thing I finally watched Episode VII this past weekend! (Yeah, I’m a little late to the party...)

It's odd they haven't had even a title or teaser yet. They seem to be treading carefully and not wanting to step on the toes of Captain Marvel or Avengers (not that they even need to advertise for that movie)

The Last Jedi Teaser wasn't released until Celebration 2017 so I suspect that is what they will do with Episode 9.

That's why I said its subjective. I can't remember everything I watched when I was 10 but I probably did see some things once in a while that had some things other people wouldn't let 10 year olds watch.

Like I said though there will be a wide variety of content and this is just one short in the grand scheme of things.

How about the “To infinity and your mom” joke from the TS4 teaser trailer. I still feel likes that’s crossing a line for the character of the Toy Story franchise. And I LOVE Key and Peele and all their raunchyness. But that joke seem out of place for TS.

I would agree that it is a little out of place but in TS1 Bo asks Andy if he wants someone to watch her sheep so they can have some alone time. There are a lot of innuendo's in all Disney and Pixar movies that typically go over kids' heads.

 

[TISHLOVESDISNEY]

Eh, I hear kids use the "your mom" in less offensive ways, it's become a silly response for some kids.
Who was at the door "your mom"
Who made this mess "your mom"
Is it polite, no, but as a mom it doesn't offend me. And no, my mom didn't make the mess, so clean it up...

Star Wars: Order Restored (weak, but a guess)

With 'Revenge of the Sith' and 'Return of the Jedi' ... I'm figuring the overall picture still focuses on the Balance of light and dark in The Force. My guess is that the title will be something along the lines 'Balance of/to the Force'

 

[hertamaniac]

That makes perfect sense. My 'Order Restored' angle wasn't that the First Order is in control, but is back to neutral/zero/balance.

I don't disagree, I think it's out of place in a Toy Story movie as well. But knowing that these character are Carnival prizes, it does make sense in the Toy Story universe that they would have more bite to them. Think about what those prizes have seen and heard traveling around with those carnies. To us as an audience it's a tad off-putting, but thinking about the world of Toy Story, it makes sense. I reserve full judgement until I watch the movie.

EDIT: I just watched that teaser trailer again. And the thing that bothers me the most is that they are self-referential. They are talking about making another Toy Story movie. Self-referential movies are fine, but to start breaking the 4th wall in the 4th movie of a franchise doesn't jive with me.

 

[hertamaniac]

Not sure if this was posted anywhere else on the boards, but apparently a "new" Dumbo trailer is coming to DHS at Walt Disney Presents next month.

I recall some chatter that the titles of the three new movies would sort of flow together into a phrase or concept. Idea that "the force awakens" "the last Jedi" ... so then something "Balance restored" would fit .... so all together "The Force awakens the Last Jedi, balance restored"

I am thinking (hoping) that these bits that are in the trailers (this one and the other one with Key and Peel's characters) are only in the trailers and not in the actual movie

I'd assume it's just marketing as well, but to me it's still a bit off-putting. The trailer that aired during the Super Bowl didn't give me a lot of confidence either. I mean, the toys being alive in what seems like broad daylight with people around...don't get me wrong, I remember the cone scene, but that, man, it wasn't like they were trying to hide the fact that they alive.

 

[MickeyMinnieMom]

Obviously everyone is different but I let me kids watch Star Wars but I wouldn't let them watch this - with the use of the A-word and the prick joke

That's why I said its subjective. I can't remember everything I watched when I was 10 but I probably did see some things once in a while that had some things other people wouldn't let 10 year olds watch.

Subjective to be sure... and different things work for different people!

Funny, though... as a child of the 80's, MANY things were rated PG (not even with the "13") back then that most people wouldn't let their younger kids watch these days! My sense is that these days, a lot of kids have heard "worse" at school well before their parents would think to allow them to watch movies/TV with that same content at home.
