Angry Wookies! Lava! Space Battles! More Yoda fighting! What appears to be the emperor fighting! ACTUAL DARTH VADER (who should be fighting properly in this movie, not the half assed "duels" from the first three which looked more like a clumsy breakdance than skilled fighters)! MACE WINDU LOOKING MEAN, ANGRY, AND LIGHTSABRE-WEILDY!
On the down side? Hayden Christensen trying to look mean. And failing.

Maybe I just have bad movie taste but I really didnt think that the first 2 were as ungodly bad as everyone else thinks. Sure jar jar wasnt the best character in the world etc but what ever I was entertained.
Ill go see this one too in the very least for some sence of closure now that Ive seen the other 5.
it looks like they might have a decent space battle in this one.
really hard to call from what I saw, whether it will be good or bad.
BUT
I saw some in the process of making videos a while back and a couple things disturbed me, one was the way people acted around lucas and a couple other people (nervous, like they'd laugh at any joke to keep their jobs, or resentment, being treated like a peon and getting the guy's name wrong)
what's worse was this: they were building sets, making costumes, filming fight scenes, the works, and Lucas apparently hadn't even started on the script. Later on he came out with version 1 of the script (nervous clap from everyone) and he said, "There's a lot of cheating in there, a lot of 'they fight'"
from those, UGH.
edit: spelling and one word correction
edit 2: he was actually informed of the progress of all the art departments and so forth and said "I'd better get started on that script" So that combined with the later scene are how I knew for sure that he really hadn't.
God knows why, but that trailer got me slightly excited. I must be a digital effects ****. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I can't wait for episode 7, 8 and 9 where rather than just paying to see a disappointing movie, George Lucas actually comes to your house, takes a dump on your rug, steals your TV and has sex with your pets.

Nem made me promise to take a break using controversial avatars for a while, because it was creating a rift in the community or something. The original is still hosted on the NS boards somewhere if you can find it. Zel has a copy and bigbull has a copy too.
If you use those I take no responsibilty, as I am not hosting or supporting it in any way.
Eh. Im still going to enjoy the original trilogy much better. Phantom Menace could have been skipped completely. How would Star Wars be without A New Hope though? Attack of the Clones ended up being just a prelude with little actual story. Maybe lucas will be 1-2 after this... then again given his streak he might go 0-3.
I dunno. They held off on showing the coolest stuff (aka no General Grievous), and that Wookee Army got me pretty pumped up. I liked it, and I look foward to watching Mace Windu get owned.

looks like those will rock
Yes, absolutely. The one that got me was one of the model makers (dont' know if he was a sculpter or a cgi person), who was falling over himself to agree with everything Lucas said.
Trailer please.

I mean, the trailers for Episodes 1 & 2 looked terrific...
But if even the trailer for this one looks dumb.... That means it'll probably be the worst one of all...
