It looks like a brilliant movie...

I didn't see NSync. Too bad. That was one of the drawing points. Although, I wasn't too displeased when they showed multiple Jedi knights fighting with multiple coloured blades blocking shots.

DAMN! They really packed it on spcial effects this time!
This looks like it's going to become the biggest Star Wars movie yet.
Did anyone else think '5th Element' when Anakin jumped off the speeder?
And what's with Obi-Wan and not liking to fly? He eventually has no problem with going in that 'piece of junk' in A New Hope.

It's a simple tension-breaking device.
But the trailer does look rather good, doesn't it? I don't think it will disappoint, but I wonder if it can equal the sublime first 15 minutes of EP1:TPM.

I don't see no link. Are you referring to apple's homepage?

other than the name it looks like an awesome movie. when i first saw those star destroyer loking things i thought Victory Star Destroyer. but it wasn't. i wonder if they'll feature them in the movie, or at least the third one
Posted by NightWing (Member # 4) on :
www.apple.com/trailers has a link to all four of them (just follow one link, and you'll get a page to all of them).
As for the Victory class, I don't think we'll see those in the upcoming movie. But I really hope they'll be in Episode 3.
I'm also looking forward to seeing Z-95 Headhunters and some primitive TIE Fighters in Episode 3.

Those goddamnfuckingbuggerbastardfreaksofnature!!! I don't want to pay 29.95 just to get Quicktime Pro 5 and see the trailer in good res!!! Does anyone have the fourth trailer in a file? Maybe to get over ICQ? I don't want to see this thing in 200x120pixels, with every third frame being skipped due to poor buffering...

Nim, never fear go here.

Aah, tasty. Danko.
So they finally decided to please the crowd by letting someone doublewield sabers. I like it.
I feel sad about the last bit of the trailer, with the jedi knights surrounded. I didn't want to see that now. Or is it the Jedi Council? That would be rather corny, having the only Jedii we've seen in Ep.I all take part in the same battle. They must have a corps for that, or Lucas has finally lost all imagination.
A bit tounge-in-cheek to have Christopher Lee say almost the exact same words to Obi-Wan that Vader says to Luke; "Join me, and together we may 'destroy the Sith'/'rule the galaxy'". Since he calls someone else Sith, he must be a Dark Jedi himself.
Dear God, I hope those squeeking little turd-people aren't supposed to be the original Sith creatures? I thought they had red skin and fleshy tufts on the chin, like here. http://thunder.prohosting.com/~spiff/Sith.htm
Anyways, I think the trailers are revealing too much, I want to be as surprised as I can be given that it's already a prequel and the overall plot points are well-known.
I think I spotted little Bobba running up the boarding pad to Slave I, when Jango, or his clone, is firing at Obi-Wan.
Posted by NightWing (Member # 4) on :
Yes, that was Boba on the ramp.
And he's a Sith alright, because he had a red lightsabre in one of the other trailers.
Posted by Nim Pim (Member # 205) on :
Hmm, he's listed as "Count Dooku"/"Darth Tyranus" (Sidious, Maul, Vader, Tyranus, they really want to convey their mindset, huh...) If so, the 'Sith' he is talking about destroying might be those impish little turds in the trailer then. Wasn't my link right about the true Sith species?
Anyway, I downloaded this 640pixel badboy-clip, transferred it to the computer in the big storage room in my office, set up one of our Infocus 755 projectors and showed it on the wall on our lunchbreak, jolly good fun!
