So they've announced the official release date of Star Wars VII.

Two more years... not sure I can wait that long!

I'm so happy they're finally making the third trilogy.

 

I saw Star Wars for the first time with a pack of my cousins when I was 12. It's what made me a science fiction/fantasy fan for life. I saw the original (in the theaters, that was the only option back in those olden days...) at least 20 times. I can still quote most of the movie in sync with the actors on the screen. 

 

It's a long wait, but I hope they're making it great and totally worth it!

Booo! What happened? I thought it was coming next year... And what's up with the December release? This should be a summer movie.

Cautiously optimistic given what we saw in the Prequel Trilogy.  Fool me once.... 

YES! YES! YES! YES! I cannot wait until the movie is released!!! :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: I hope it is a good movie. I am going to watch it on opening day.

Heck yes! When can we buy tickets?

The JJ bashing has already begun with the fact that all other Star Wars movies were released in May.

 

The only good thing about waiting that long is that my 3 year old will be 5 so he'll be able to see it in the theatres with me and my oldest who will be 8.

After seeing what Abrams did with Star Trek ( the first one anyway), I'm highly optimistic about the new Star Wars. Let's hope he goes easy on the lens flare. Don't repeat the mistakes of the prequel trilogy: Star Wars is supposed to be DIRTY.

Anyone know what the title of the movie will be?

I'm a total sci-fi nerd. I enjoyed all 6 Star Wars movies and have enjoyed every Star Trek movie. But I totally agree .. Star Wars is supposed to be dirty.

Excellent i still have 2 years to complete my Ultimate 400 set star wars collection (:

Does this mean our LEGO Star Wars collection will soar in price?!

Anyone curious what the new LEGO sets will look like for the new movies?

So much to hope and dream!

Yep those new Star Trek movies were what Prequel Trilogy should have been, dynamic and full of actions.  I could hardly call them Star Trek though, but that was beside the point

I hope the  SW sets soar in price. They are a good chunk of my brickfolio, and I also hope that the new sets are amazing.

In two years, assuming the movies are decent, and LEGO stops making the same sets over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, that's the idea. 

This will be the first official Star Wars release that is not in May.

 I am back in forth on how the movie will be. Like most movies right now, a lot of JJ abrams movies lack character development.

 

If you are going to put a character in a movie and have them say more than a few lines, etc., I need to know who they are. What makes them tick, what they love to do, etc.

 

A lot of his movies (and most movies now) I just don't feel that way. I feel like I come out of a movie with more questions than answers.

Hollywood is broken, we need change!

 

Yes we can! Yes we can!

After seeing Star Trek: Into Darkness, I am all in on JJ. True, no deep character development, but those are films where the characters are well known, so I can forgive that a bit. Willing to give him the benefit of the doubt with some new characters in VII.

He did help create Fringe (series). That series had some pretty great characters, IMO (of course, it's easier to develop them over a whole season than it is in just 1 movie)

Im so excited for this.

Super 8 had great characters. Star Trek and Mission Impossible 3 were smart action flicks, and the characters progressed more than most action fluff. Cloverfield...lol no.

Same here. I've got a 3 year old who already loves Star Wars (I let him watch select scenes) and he already knows most of the characters. I remember my mom taking my brother and I to a packed Episode 1 showing and going to an even more packed opening shows for both Epi 2 & 3. I think with JJ behind it, George at least involved and the resources of Disney it will be a success.
