Hopefully it's not a plot remake of an earlier movie, or driven into the ground by yearly releases.

It looks like it is something that takes place between Episode 3 and 4, the DS looks a little too complete to be the second one.

Also, I don't see what the big deal about yearly releases is. I feel more Star Wars is better.

I believe it is about the rebel team that stole the plans for the Death Star.

Wasn't there a spot in New Hope where she said "many bothan spies died to bring us this information" or was that Jedi? I forget now...

Whoever is playing Mon Mothma looks spot the fuck on.

I also heard that James Earl Jones is signed to this movie for some Vader awesomeness.

Yeah, they did a good job on her. I'm glad they put her in, she just kinda appears out of no where in Episode 6.

I just don't want to see it become forced (hurr hurr). The more stuff they throw at the wall, the more likely we'll get shitfests like the Spiderman reboot or DC universe.

I mean, I enjoyed The Force Awakens, but Disney played it super safe. It's almost like a remake of A New Hope.

That was the purpose. They are setting the stage for what the next 2 movies in the series will be like. They want you to know it'll be more like the original trilogy rather than the prequal. I still thoroughly enjoyed Episode VII.

It was pretty dumb how they didn't make one mention about how she was one of the "founders" of the rebellion and that it wouldn't exist without her.

In related news, the guy that voiced Admiral Ackbar died the other day.

He probably fell into a death trap and didn't realize it in time.

The death trap that is life. Guy was 93. He was also the voice of Bib Fortuna.

Real good fucking job.

(Mon Mothma) also intended to demilitarize Republic, hoping to cut the New Republic Starfleet by ninety percent while leaving the defense of member worlds to the worlds themselves.

I'm sure that worked out real well.

I'm interested to see how/if they will incorporate samurai type fighting.

The character he's playing is blind and part of the main cast. So chances are he's going to be similar to the blind samurai with some force sensitivity.

Like that.

Having Ip Man in the movie means Disney is legally required to include at least 30 minutes of footage showing how bad the Japanese were during WW2.

That is the Trade Federation during the prequals.

He's not Japanese though. He's Chinese. Also, he appears to be absolutely stoked to be in a Star Wars film.
