Like most people this is one movie I look forward to seeing this year than anything else. Can’t wait to see it myself!

Some interesting character news from the “Star Wars: the Force Awakens”…
Since today is Star Wars day, I thought it be cool to give you some interesting Star Wars news in the upcoming “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” coming out in Dec.
First off, who is “Game of Thrones” star Gwendoline Christie is playing? Well, Gwendoline’s character is gonna be Captain Phasma, who is that armored stormtrooper with that large gun you see in the second trailer. So Gwendoline’s character was seen in the trailer. Pretty cool. Gwendoline was heavily armored as Brienne Maid of Tarth in “Games of Thrones” and looks like she’s gonna be heavily armored again in Star Wars.

In this article you can see Adam Driver as Kylo Ren unmasked and they reveal who Lupita Nyongo will be playing. Lupita will be playing a CGI character named, Maz Kanata.

For some reason though, they are not letting us see Luke Skywalker yet. Wonder why JJ is being secretive on Luke? There’s gotta be some deep story with Luke that we don’t know about yet. I’d like to see the new Leia too.
I really can’t wait for “The Force Awakens” like most people, though.

Mark Hamill admits to being a little skeptical of JJ doing Star Wars 7 “The Force Awakens”…
Pretty interesting. Mark Hamill is just like most of Star Wars fans. He at first was a little skeptical of JJ directing Star Wars. He was a little “cautious” about it but then Hamill admits he jumped aboard the Star Wars 7 cast ’cause he was afraid that the die-hards would get angry at him and would probably protest if he said “No”.
I agree that would happen if Mark Hamill said no to returning. I mean, look at what Billy Dee Williams is going through. Billy Dee is not playing Lando in “The Force Awakens” and a lot of fans are upset about it. That is probably why Harrison and Carrie had to jump aboard the film as well to avoid an angry mob of fans. Everyone was expecting a Star Wars reunion. They got everybody except for Billy Dee obviously. Who knows, maybe Billy Dee still has a surprising cameo appearance in “The Force Awakens” though… we’ll have to wait and see. JJ is always full of surprises and secrets.
Luke Skywalker is probably not gonna be in “The Force Awakens” that much but at least he’ll be in it. It’s looking like that Han Solo is gonna get the most screen time for “The Force Awakens”.
I can’t wait for this film, though. I hope this will be the “Star Wars” film that we all can walk out of the theaters with huge smiles on our faces this time. I’m sure that will happen.

Not a lotof people are talking about John Williams score in “The Force Awakens” trailer…
How about that score by John Williams in the new “Star Wars” trailer, hey?
Yes, in the opening of the trailer when it shows the wrecked Star Destroyer… you hear the old music from “A New Hope” but the rest of the trailer is all new music composed by John Williams.
I think it was the music of John Williams who helped get fans pumped up for the next film. Without the music of John Williams, then the trailer would have been less-interesting.
I’m just posting the trailer again ’cause it’s fuckin’ badass. I’ll admit that I was skeptical of JJ doing this film at first but now I think it’s gonna be great. Star Wars fanatics should be happy with this one.

2nd trailer of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” is here and it gave me goosebumps!!! WOW!!!!
I’m blown away by this trailer. The trailer was very well done and this is HOW you make a movie trailer. I figure this trailer will get Star Wars fans pumped up and they did a good job doing just that.
Luke Skywalker does appear in the trailer, he’s the one with the mechanical hand touching R2D2 and Mark Hamill is obviously doing the voice overs. Princess Leia does appear in the trailer but you can’t see her face. Leia is seen handing someone a light saber. When Leia hands someone a light saber, did you noticed a ring on her finger? Is she and Han Solo married in this movie? That’s what it’s looking like to me. Who is Leia handing the light saber to?
Seeing Han Solo finally is fucking badass as well! Predictably Han Solo still looks the same except he’s much older now obviously.
As expected, this looks to be an action-packed Star Wars movie that would get fans jumping up and down on their seats excitedly feeling like a little kid again.
I’m blown away with the trailer. I’m sure we will see much more in Trailer #3. I’m sure they’ll let us see Luke’s and Leia’s face in the next one.
Will we see Luke Skywalker back in light saber action? I’m almost positive we will see Luke swinging the light saber around again ’cause fans will be disappointed if we don’t see Luke in action again. I’m sure it’s gonna be Luke vs. Kylo Ren at the end of the film.
I can’t fucking wait though! I’m definitely gonna try to see this on opening day.

I’m not surprised that “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” would be the most anticipated film of 2015…
I’ll admit that “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” is one of those films that I most look forward to in 2015. Sucks we have to wait until all the way ’til next Dec. to see it, though. I really hope JJ doesn’t let us down and hopes he gives us a good Star Wars movie.

As for all the other films, honestly, I’m actually looking forward to “Fifty Shades of Grey” too. The more I see the trailer, the more it looks interesting to me so I’m probably gonna see that one. I’m probably gonna go see “Jurassic World”, “Mockingjay 2”, “Fast and Furious 7”, “MI: 5”, “Avengers 2”, “Spectre”, etc.
I’m surprised “Terminator 5” isn’t listed anywhere. Not sure if I’m gonna go see the new “Terminator” film or not. Thinking about it.
Yep, 2015 looks to be a pretty huge year for movies.
Hopefully Star Wars 7 will be worth the wait.

Chewbacca revealed in latest “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” charity video…
JJ has been doing a lot of charity work for “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and he just released a new video, thanking fans for taking part in Unicef. Here is the cast and crew saying “thank you”.
Chewbacca is revealed with Peter Mayhew in costume and all. Even if Episode 7 is taken place 35 years after Jedi, Chewie still looks the same, he hasn’t aged a bit. Chewie still looks good, though.
Still though, JJ won’t show Harrison, Mark and Carrie… I don’t see any of them in this video, do you??? Why is JJ being secretive on the original trio? He probably doesn’t wanna give away too much this soon.

Kylo Ren is the name of Adam Driver’s villain character???
JJ Abrams revealed the character names from the teaser using virtual collector’s cards. Look like the name of the main villain for Episode VII is Kylo Ren who is a Sith… he might be Adam Driver’s villain character. I’m predicting that’s who it may be.
Names of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens Characters Revealed!
Cool stuff.
I hope in the next trailer will show Han, Chewie, Leia, Luke and the two droids. I’m sure they will.

Robert Orci, dropped from Star Trek 3…
Robert Orci have been suddenly dropped from directing “Star Trek 3”. Nobody’s saying as to why he’s been dropped but since no one is talking yet, I’m thinking he might of gotten fired. That’s what it’s looking like.
Honestly, I don’t care who directs the next Star Trek film. They just need to drop this fucking reboot. I’m tired of it. I don’t like the reboot films at all. It’s not true, “Star Trek”. Many Star Trek fans don’t want this reboot either and for some reason Paramount/Bad Robot are committed to making the sequels of the younger cast. Even though JJ moved on to direct Star Wars, he’s still helping out with “Star Trek 3” ’cause his company Bad Robot is still producing.
Why don’t they just throw this re-boot in the trash and create a whole new Star Trek series? With new characters and new stories and all that stuff. This is science fiction so I’m sure Paramount can come up with something new. Either that or they can give “Deep Space Nine” their first big screen film. Or even better if Paramount can somehow reunite the “The Next Generation” cast, we could have one final TNG movie.
I’m the biggest Star Trek fan and I still think this is a dying franchise. “Star Trek Into Darkness” was complete garbage and I’m sure the next one will be too.
Hollywood really needs to save Star Trek. Pretty badly. Hopefully, “Star Trek 3” will be the last of the reboot with the young cast.
I’m a huge fan of the original Star Trek films and the TNG films. Yeah, I’m a Trekkie and feel proud of it. I grew up my life on Star Trek. Loved this franchise ever since I was a child. I’m one of those few that believes that JJ ruined Trek so hopefully he won’t do the same with Star Wars.

This Star Wars movie could have no lens-flares… I didn’t see any in the trailer…
One thing that impressed me with the new “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” trailer is that it didn’t have any lens flares effects. A lot of us expected that the film will be full of lens flares since JJ is so obsessed with that camera effect but look like we aren’t gonna see any in Star Wars 7. Why did JJ decided to ditch the lens flares for Star Wars 7???
I would think that in order to keep the film, George Lucas styled… and for the film to be more like the original trilogy, he would have to get rid of the lens flares. He didn’t want to ruin the magic of what a true Star Wars film would be. He wanted to keep the fans happy and give them what they want so he ditched the lens flares.
There’s gonna be less CGI and less green screen in this film ’cause most of it was filmed for real… kind of like how George Lucas filmed them, ya know?
Seeing no lens flares was awesome. Hopefully there won’t be any of that at all in the film ’cause honestly, I’m with everyone else that JJ’s lens flare effects is pretty lame and silly. It’ll be nice if we didn’t see any of that in the new Star Wars movie.
