LOL like at Savi's (in my dreams)

Nice trailer - looks pretty good! That part where they all light up their sabers - very cool!

 

[Skywalker3]

Well, I didn't know anything about this new series except that it was set 100 years before TPM. I'm still taking it all in, and very hopeful for it.

i am excited, it will be fun to be in a different time period in this universe

I have to admit this fell off my radar. I was expecting Skeleton Crew first, so this was a bit of a (nice) surprise

yeah, me too. Very nice! I just watched some trailer breakdowns, and reactions, and I'm more excited now. I don't read many of the novels, or any comics, but I appreciate them. I may try to read some of the HIgh Republic books, or find someone giving synopses. I did that with a lot of the comics, found someone online summarizing.
and love your new avatar. Beaker is one of my favorites!

I’m still holding on to the hope that we’ll get a Dagan Gera cameo flashback in this before he’s put in status. A girl can dream, right? Haha

I could think of worse ways to spend a Saturday.

I could think of worse ways to spend a Saturday.

I’d need to plan out a nap schedule for it.

The Force Awakens would be a candidate for me after 12+ hours of movie. I’ll have already watched the original Star Wars, no need to totally stay focused through its clone.

I just knew that Alamo Drafthouse would be all over this. After all, they once did a Hobbit/LOTR marathon, complete with Hobbit-appropriate meals throughout. Here are their preliminary plans for the Star Wars marathon, which will begin on May 3rd so they can finish at a reasonable hour on the 4th:

https://drafthouse.com/news/may-the-fourth-marathon

I especially like these notes:
• Unlimited coffee and water will be available to all.
• The 501st Legion will be making an appearance on 5/3.

"Our lobby at Alamo Drafthouse New Mission will be making the jump to a galaxy far, far away with a complete makeover, official STAR WARS props on display, and Instagrammable photo ops. We know only Siths deal in absolutes, but this is 100% the coolest thing to ever happen in this or any other galaxy."

Note that they're running a sweepstakes to win a trip to San Francisco for the marathon, which will be held at their SF location.

My hope is Plo Koon, there is some speculation that he might appear in the Acolyte.

 

[PolymerSkywalker]

Looks like a united colors of Benetton add from the 1990s. Over double the amount of dislikes to likes on this trailer on YouTube. There is no hope for Star Wars.

I got tickets for the TPM re-release. It will be the first theatre experience for my four year old.

 

[mdmost]

Yeah, I'll break down and take my kids to go see it. I have mixed feelings about TPM. At least it's not AOTC.

I have mixed feelings about The Phantom Menace too - I can't decide if it's the best Star Wars movie of all time or if it's the best movie of all time! It's proibably both.
