    Oh great, another trailer of a bunch of disconnected images that--
    *Binary Sun starts playing*
    OH MY GOD I NEED THIS MOVIE RIGHT NOW SOMEONE INVENT A TIME MACHINE.

    That X-Wing scene too, oh god it looks so cool.
    Also, holy **** Harrison Ford is back? Damn, that's a surprise.


    Oh hey, there's an annotation at the end for the Battlefront reboot, I wonder where that lead-- *GAAAAAAAASP*

    That annotation better not be the entirety of what they show.

    "Chewie, we're home". Touched my heart.

    Here's something interesting. In the opening shot we see an X-Wing half-buried in the sands of Tatooine:

    [​IMG]

    But if you look at that shot of them flying over the lake:

    [​IMG]

    It's not THE X-Wing. It's a new model!

    Similarly, there's the classic, albeit shiny TIE Fighter with that iconic cockpit:

    [​IMG]

    But in that AWESOME shot of that TIE fighter wrecking a hangar, it looks like this:

    [​IMG]

    Some special armoured TIE?

    Eh? No it isn't! That was one of the first pieces of information we had about the movie.

    That scene looks almost real life!

    Also, what was the difference between the two X-Wing designs? I'm not sharp enough to notice

    Look at the engine intakes. On the older crashed one they are smaller and circular extending through the wing.

    In the image above these are wider semi circles that sit atop the wing (the older design makes more sense to me as an engineer but hey)....

    Sadly not, just an earth bound mechanical engineer.... I just think visually the older design 'reads' better (I guess as it's easier to understand from a 21st century engineers view point). I wasn't commenting on it's validity as a design as I'd need to know more about it (and lets face it, this is sci-fi so anything goes, the ridiculous pylons they put the warp nacelles on in Star Trek was always a source of amusement as no matter how you slice it they are *extremely vulnerable* rigged out like that)....

    Maybe more efficient engines and so they can afford to lose size for better aerodynamics. Yes I know "space craft!" But they do go in atmospheres quite often too.. xP

    Random thing- One could be a TIE Fighter from a separate faction of the Imperial remnant, as their are more than one who are even rivals iirc.

    To be honest, I laughed out loud at this scene. I wasn't interested in the Star Wars series anymore the day they released the new ones (Episode 1-3).
    But now I know, this movie is going to be awesome.

    Dang I can't watch youtube because my internet's being.. Unusual these past few days.

    "
    This webpage is not available
    The connection to www.youtube.com was interrupted.
    Check your internet connection.
    Check any cables and reboot any routers, modems, or other network devices you may be using.

    Allow Opera to access the network in your firewall or antivirus settings.
    If it is already listed as a program allowed to access the network, try removing it from the list and adding it again.

    If you use a proxy server...
    Check your proxy settings or contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. If you don't believe you should be using a proxy server: Go to the Opera menu > Settings > Change proxy settings...> LAN Settings and deselect "Use a proxy server for your LAN".

    Youtube nor Google work- and that's basically it that doesn't. I can even play games. xD
