Harrison is 72, y’all, I don’t think he can do his own stunts anymore!!!!

Leave a comment

I understand how those are mad that Disney/Lucasfilm are moving on without Harrison Ford as Indy but keep in mind that the man is 72 now. I don’t think he has what it takes to play action scenes anymore. I think Harrison is pretty much done playing action movies. Just about anyways.

When he did “The Expendables 3”, Harrison had some action scenes but there was nothing that involved anything physical. All Harrison did was fly around in a helicopter. He didn’t do any running or punching. I’m sure he won’t do much of his own stunts in “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” either ’cause remember he got himself hurt trying to get on the Millennium Falcon. I don’t think you’ll see Harrison do too much physical stuff in Star Wars 7. He’s probably gonna be flying the Falcon for most of the movie anyways, I betcha.

Again, I understand why people are mad that Harrison may not be playing Indy anymore but keep in mind he is 72. It’s about time for him to move on and I’m sure Disney got his blessing anyways.

Soon, I’m sure Harrison will speak out on why he’s not in the new Indy film.

How much do you wanna bet that Harrison said no and turned it down? Maybe his age has nothing to do with turning down Indy. Maybe he felt that he can’t do it without George and Steve, ya know what I mean? It wouldn’t make sense to have Harrison as Indy when Steve is not directing and George is not in charge of the story, ya know? I’d say it’s actually a good idea not to have Harrison in when George and Steve are not involved. We’ll wait to see what Harrison himself says.

Sure, I’m a little disappointed too that Harrison is not gonna be involved it looks like but hey… it’s Hollywood. That’s the way it goes.

Disney wants Chris Pratt to play Indiana Jones for reboot and I’m actually okay with that!

Leave a comment

I’m all for an Indy reboot as long as they keep the stories original and not make them a “remake” of the original series, ya know? I was hoping for an Indy 5 with Harrison still playing Indy but it’s understandable he can’t play the role anymore ’cause of his age, ya know? Harrison is 72 and I can’t seem him running around with a whip trying to fight the Nazis.

I’m a huge Indiana Jones fan… always have been.

Remember, George Lucas sold the rights of Lucasfilm to Disney so this gives Disney the right to make any Lucasfilm based movies all they want to that includes Indy so Steven Spielberg must be okay with Disney doing this too.

Disney Eyeing Chris Pratt For Indiana Jones Revival

I’m a huge fan of the Indy movies. I love all 4 of ’em (Yes, I thought “Crystal Skull” was great so suck it, haters). Hopefully they do a good job with this too. As long as this won’t be a complete remake of “Raiders”, I’m okay with that.

Who knows though, maybe Harrison will still star in this new film. Maybe Indy (played by Harrison) will pass the whip to a younger archaeologist (Chris Pratt). We’ll wait and see, though.

I don’t see Steven Spielberg directing the next Indy film. Spielberg won’t do it without George being in charge.

More thoughts on the Star Wars trailer…

2 Comments

Like usual when it comes to JJ Abrams directing, there’s gonna be a lot of negative and hateful critics shitting on the trailer. A lot of fans are saying, “that’s it”? Well, for one, that’s what a teaser is supposed to do. A teaser is not supposed to show a lot but I’m sure we will see a lot more in the upcoming trailers. Reveal a little bit at a time.

I’m also seeing a lot of nasty criticism toward the lightsaber at the end, the mysterious black robed and hooded character at the end. Is that Adam Driver’s villain character or Luke Skywalker himself? We would never know. Like I said JJ is full of secrecy and there’s tons of it in this new trailer. As for the new lightstaber design, that’s just either for Luke or Adam Driver’s character. I’m sure not all lighstabers in the film are like that. This film is set 35 years after “Return of the Jedi” so obviously the lighsabers are gonna get a new design.

Why do we see John Boyega in a Stormtrooper suit and with no Stormtrooper helmet on? That’s another question that needs to be answered and I’m sure we will soon find out. Is Boyega’s character a Stormtrooper member and he escapes from them? That’s kind of what it’s looking like in that trailer to me.

Who’s the voice over??? I immediately assumed that the voice over was Luke Skywalker but if you think about it and listen to what the voice over is saying, it’s sounding like it’s coming from an evil character. I don’t think Luke would say something like, “the dark and the light”. It is probably Adam Driver, the voice over. It doesn’t sound like Mark Hamill.

This is just a teaser… I repeat, A TEASER!!! We will see a lot more in the next one, for sure. I’ve watched the trailer like 10 times straight.

I was pretty impressed with the teaser and can’t wait to see more. I’m noticing the Stormtrooper’s are looking a little different too.

“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” trailer is here!!! It’s freaking sick, HOLY SHIT!!!

3 Comments

Maybe JJ Abrams won’t let us down after all. I’m fuckin’ impressed with the trailer. It gave me goosebumps and now I’m fuckin’ psyched for Episode 7 now. The trailer has everything Star Wars fanatics would want out of a Star Wars movie: Stormtroopers, X-Wing fighters, lightsabers, tie fighters and the Millennium Falcon!!!

The trailer showed more than I expected but still there is a lot of secrecy and mystery to it. Who’s the character with the black robe and hood with the weird looking lightsaber toward the end? Is that Adam Driver’s villain character? There is also an appearance by John Boyega in a Stormtrooper suit and Daisy Ridley is seen riding some weird looking vehicle on Abu Dhabi.

No appearances by Luke, Han, Leia, Chewbacca and the Droids yet but I’m sure they will appear in the upcoming trailers. The trailers will reveal a little bit at a time.

This will definitely be the biggest movie of 2015, though and I will definitely be there in the theater for this one, for sure.

Look like you won’t have to go to a theater to see “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” trailer after all!!!

Leave a comment

Are you dying to see that 88 second, “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” trailer but there’s no theater in your hometown that has it? Not too worries!!! The 88 second teaser will be exclusively released to “Itunes Trailers” on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving.

There’s a lot of claims that the trailer has been leaked online but I’m sure those leaks aren’t legitimate so I’ll wait to see the official one.

And remember, y’all… don’t expect to see so much on the trailer. You’re only gonna see very little as I said before. JJ loves his secrecy, he’s obsessed with it. I’m sure it’ll be a sick teaser and sure it will get everyone talking and debating about it.

On Friday, I’ll go to Itunes and check it out.

“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” teaser to debut in selected theaters this Friday…

Leave a comment

Regal Entertainment Group has announced that “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” teaser trailer will debut in 9 selected theaters before every movie. I guess this will be for Regal Cinemas only. If you go to Bowtie Cinemas like I do, you will not see it there.

While it’s good news that a teaser of “Star Wars Episode VII” is coming soon… don’t expect to see a lot on it. JJ loves his usual secrecy. All you’re probably gonna see maybe Luke’s bearded face or maybe the face of the main villain will appear. Something like that, ya know? JJ does this with all of his movies when making trailers. He will reveal a little bit at a time. That’s how he works. He did that with Star Trek and he’ll do the same for Star Wars.

Looking forward to seeing the trailer, though, and when Friday comes, I expect the bootleg of the trailer to hit youtube so better keep an eye on it fast or youtube will take it down quick.

Thoughts on “Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens”…

Leave a comment

Yep, so this is the official subtitle for Star Wars 7, “The Force Awakens”. I dig the title. I like it.

Some of you may ask, why didn’t they name the title, “Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens”??? Well, if you know Star Wars way of marketing, the movies usually put the “Episode (Roman numerals here)” in the opening crawl of the movie. Lucasfilm never used the Roman numerals for posters and VHS/DVD boxart.

I remember in the first Star Wars movie they didn’t use the subtitle and roman numerals for the box art of VHS/DVD’s and they just called it “Star Wars”… they only used “Episode IV: A new Hope” for the opening crawl.

It’s just their sneaky little marketing strategy.

I expect Disney/Lucasfilm to release a teaser sometime at the end of the year… probably around Christmas. What big movie will the teaser trailer be attached to??? Since “Star Wars Episode VII” is Disney, they’ll probably attach it to “Into The Woods” w/ Johnny Depp or they could put it in front of the new “Hobbit” movie, either one.

Once again, I hope JJ don’t let us down. I’m praying for a great Star Wars movie here.

“Star Wars Episode VII” is all done filming!!!

Leave a comment

JJ Abrams and the cast and crew of “Star Wars Episode VII” have just finished filming. Yep… they are done already. As you’ll read in this article, the cast and crew filmed the movie at three different locations: Abu Dhabi desert, the Forest of Dean and of course, Pinewood Studios in London.

After the wrapping of filming, the cast and crew decided to celebrate it at the Science Museum in London.

I hope JJ won’t let us down and once again, we deserve a good Star Wars movie after the disastrous prequels Lucas gave us. I’m glad Harrison was able to film all of his scenes without hurting himself again.

I’m sure this film will be full of epic lightsaber fights and plenty of outer space X-wing vs. Tie-fighter battles and all that stuff. It’ll hopefully be the true Star Wars movie that we all want. I’m sure JJ will give us more info about the film like what the subtitle is gonna be and the plot. I’m sure we’ll get a teaser trailer soon as well.

Congrats to Disney and JJ, looking forward to it!

Harrison Ford returns to work for “Star Wars: Episode VII”…

4 Comments

When this article says that, “Han Solo is back in the cockpit”, that of course is referring to Harrison Ford is officially back to work on “SW: E7”. Which is great news. I hope Harrison and the crew will be more careful this time. I’m sure they will be more careful. Han Solo is supposed to play a major part of “Episode 7”, I think he’s pretty much the leading role.

It’s looking like that Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill will have smaller roles.

Rumors going around the internets that the plot to this film is gonna be that Luke Skywalker is missing and I think the Droids (R2 and C3PO) found Luke’s light saber and they must return it to him. So of course, they get help with Han Solo. As you Star Wars fans would know by now, Han is no fan of droids, especially 3PO. Han always found 3PO annoying and I would expect to see Han pick on 3PO even more in “Episode 7” which is gonna be funny!

In other Harrison Ford news, Ridley Scott finally confirms Harrison is coming back to “Blade Runner” which is gonna be cool too.

Han Solo costume leaked for “Star Wars Episode VII”…

Leave a comment

Yesterday,  new Stormtrooper/Snowtrooper costumes have been leaked to the web and today, Han Solo costume art have been leaked to the web.

See, Han Solo’s new costumes here:

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/68392

As you can see, they have ditched the white shirt and black vest for Han Solo which is a pretty smart move actually. Keep in mind that “Star Wars Episode 7” takes place 30 years after Return of the Jedi so everything is probably gonna be different.

New costumes. New looks for the characters. New spaceships. New uniforms and all that stuff. New technology. New weapons.

Everything will be different from George Lucas’s era of Star Wars. That’s what it’s looking like to me.

I like Han Solo’s new look. At least, he still has the lazer gun!

While I’m pretty sure, Episode 7 will still have light sabers, I’m sure JJ will give the light sabers a new look and feel too. I just hope JJ will keep the light saber sound effect. You know that sound the light saber makes when the Jedi’s start swinging them? That buzzing sound effect. I would think they would keep the buzzing sound from the light saber but JJ might make that a little different too. He will make the color and the sound different of the light saber.

This is a completely new era of Star Wars so say goodbye to all the George Lucas designs and ideas… all that stuff will be considered old-school.
