1. Here is the trailer

I think it looks great.

2. Looks like the MRA is out again

complaining about a female lead in the movie. I'm sure it will have as much of an effect as it did on The Force Awakens.

3. I enjoyed the trailer. More acculturate, I loved the trailer.

I enjoyed the trailer. More acculturate, I loved the trailer. Though it looks much less family-oriented than was Force Awakens, that's not necessarily a bad thing if the franchise is simply diversifying its product to allow more appeal to particular demographics.

As for the poor, oppressed MRAs, well... a few hyper-sensitive, rather shrill, and overly-emotional souls may have noticed a very small disturbance in the Force, as if dozens of voices cried out in terror, and were suddenly ignored.

4. I like it as well

I'm sure I'll be seeing it opening weekend.

15. Actually, I think she had a big effect on The Force Awakens

Specifically, she was awesome! She totally dominated the film every time she was onscreen. I don't know where they found her, but they should double whatever they're paying her.

The casting this time around was excellent across the board. We saw more character in any 10 second snippet than in the entire 7-hour prequel crapfest.



Fuck those MRA assholes and their stupid, ill-informed opinions.

16. supposedly

she really bombed in her first audition, but then somehow got called back and it was a complete 180.

[Orrex]

17. Wow. Glad they gave her another chance.

The film has its detractors, and there are undeniably conspicuous echoes of EP4, but it's clear that the one person in the universe who utterly fails to understand Star Wars is George Lucas.

[NewJeffCT]

18. yes

there are certainly a lot of similarities with Episode 4, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The movie, though, certainly recaptured the feel of the original trilogy.

I'll have to see if I can find the article on Ridley's first audition bombing.

20. I loved it from first frame to last

If I have one criticism, it's that it suffers from the same weird timeline as the rest of the series.

It seems to take place in less than about 24 hours, which is a remarkably short time in which to become aware of a superweapon, plot a mission to sabotage it, and execute that mission, all while bantering with pirates and wizened light saber-keepers and then find and visit a reclusive Jedi Master.

Hell, Finn and Rey didn't even have time to change clothes.
That's a busier 24 hours than CTU Agent Jack Bauer ever logged!

19. here is the article

she said her first two auditions didn't feel right, but then something clicked on the 3rd.

21. Third time's the charm!

Let's here it for persistence!

[NewJeffCT]

23. while she may not have felt good about her initial auditions

she was obviously good enough to get called back.

5. Many Bothans died to give us this trailer.

[NewJeffCT]

7. The Bothans

were from Return of the Jedi and got the plans for the second Death Star.

10. That we know of

[Gomez163]

6. I heard there was a male lead but he was on Alderaan so.....

[NewJeffCT]

8. yes

he was in Alderaan places...

[Gomez163]

9. bazinga!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Yavin4]

11. Was he wooking for love? n/t

[OriginalGeek]

12. "I rebel"

welp. I just fell in love again.

[NewJeffCT]

13. somebody posted on Facebook

that line could have been uttered by Han Solo and not been out of place.

[OriginalGeek]

14. True!

but I already love Han.

If marketing isn't already on it, they probably will be soon. "I Rebel" is ripe for tag-lining meme-ing.

the problem is if you haven't seen the clip you might be thinking I Rebel is a southern version of I Robot.
