Omg, after the three movies and the Clone Wars cartoon I was starting to think we'd hear every background Jedi speak except him, which upset me because he's my favorite background Jedi, but in the new trailer he speaks!!!!!!!!

He didn't sound exactly as I thought he'd sound. I'm not too familiar with his background, but he sounded a bit too human.

Yeah, I'd have expected his breather mask to... well, make his voice sound like someone was speaking through a breather mask tongue

Going to be good to get some Plo action though!
Edit: I suppose it's a bit late in the day for me to start wishing for a yellow saber isn't it?

Sadly yes, I would love a yellow/orange Lightsaber.
Lucas said nobody gets a lightsaber other then Red(Bad)/Blue/Green(Good)/Purple(Sam Jackson).

If A'Sharad Hett is in it, he'll use his Green Lightsabers? I'm not sure what colors he has. I've seen pix of Red, and of Green.

Ahh, but does Grievous wield Blue and Green? And Anakin uses Blue when he's evil, and Red when he's good. I think the saber rule is at some point between TPM and AOTC all the way to ROTJ the blue and green crystals were the only ones used except for the few Sith and Dark Jedi who used red, and Mace who was given the purple.

I thought that if Plo Koon didn't speak Galactic Basic it would have been much cooler.

I wouldn't exactly call his use of the Red saber good. He used it to kill Dooku and then threw it away. It just looked cool on screen and presented a metaphore- other then that, he could've just beheaded Dooku with his lightsaber. Anakin uses his blue when he becomes Vader so that the Jedi wouldn't be able to tell he was the threat, and he just didn't have time to make a new one- he was a busy Sith Lord.

I thought I detected a faint trace of a voice modulator in the trailer when he spoke...

I loved that bit. I thought it fit perfectly, his voice. He's described as a morally strict Jedi in databanks and character guides, and I think the tone of his voice implies that characteristic and he also has that wisdom tone to it, like all the Jedi do!

To me he sounds like a wily old war veteran, a guy who is very wise and has some things to say and we're finally going to hear some of these things

Sounds a bit different than I'd imagined, but it's still a good voice. It grows on me more every time I watch the new trailer.

For some reason I can't help but think Plo's gonna end up like one of those Gandalf-ish characters. Maybe a sane version of Yoda. (Not like I'm questioning Yoda's sanity but he tends to err on the side of eccentricity).

I thought he would sound a little more electronically, like Leia did when talking to Han while still wearing the Boushh disguise helmet.

But the voice he has now is fine by me.

Voice is good.



And I'm amused by the fact that Anakin pulled a Joker tongue
