PT Is Disney Giving into Peer Pressure From (OT the only crowd)

I heard 3P-0 was talking crap about them today at the cone, and Haydan and Ewan were not on the guest list.

Honesty, all the toxic is really getting to me. I've identified with a'lot of the prequel characters and love the world they painted. I feel like the hipsters have comply bullied us and now Disney has chose them as there market as appose to us who like variety in our Star Wars.

The whole time during the second teaser, I was hopeing for some CG-I thing to pop up. Nobody complains when Marevel does it.

It's just so depressing. I remember when Sith came out, everyone loved all the trilogies. Now cause of the Nastalgia Critcs and the Pinckets, all those wonderful story elements are going to be discard.

It's really freaking sad. I hope I'm wrong about Disney and Abrmas, because I think the biggest victems are the Star of the Prequels. Haydan, Portman, Neison, Ewan. They are just a much apart of Star Wars as Chewie or Han.

I want to enjoy the new movie, but not if it's going to follow such limiting rules.

 

Also. I'm new here and I'm sure this topic comes up alot. I hope this form will welcom me and my Star Wars options. Long before Game of Thrones, Ponies, or anything, Star Wars has and always will be my first and favorite fandom.

Long live the Force!

 

What did Anthony Daniels say? Can you post a link?

In all honesty, JJ liked the OT better and is trying to return Star Wars to its roots. I really doubt Red Letter Media and the Nostalgia Critic (whose video was about finding things to like about the PT) really have that much influence among the vast population. The PT had their detractors even in 1999.

Another way to look at it is that the PT was very heavily pushed for the past 15 years, and now the OT and ST get a chance to be the big dogs in Star Wars.

 

I don't think so Rebels and the books have so many references to the PT its amazing.

 

Yes, and that obnoxious attitude on their part is pretty obvious. I'll vote with my wallet.

 

This being a sequel trilogy it seems like a natural progession to borrow more from the original trilogy then the prequels which were 6 to 4 movies ago.

I for one think every film of the prequel trilogy has had its moments.

 

I hope not, but sometimes I do feel that way. They act like it's the only Star Wars era out there which it's not. There are tons are eras out there. PT, Dark Times, Clone Wars, Old Republic, post ROTJ, etc, etc.

I'm hoping once TFA comes out things will calm down, but we'll see. Also, from we've seen in the trailer, I get a PT vibe, so that makes not worry so much, but again we'll see in exactly 8 months today...wow!

 

The sequel trilogy, in my opinion, should be balanced, OR create an atmosphere of it's own. To be honest, I don't want the ST to lean too much towards either existing trilogy, it should just be it's own thing.

 

from what i see and from the comments by Abrams it seems it's going to be an OT look. I would of liked to see more progression in vehicle design, plus some more artful stuff like we saw in the PT too. I think the PT had both looks by the end.

 

I think the PR stuff about practical effects (as if the PT had none) is going a tad bit overboard, but in terms of the actual teasers a lot there that reminds me of the prequels. I haven't been following Celebration, but that would indeed be disappointing if the prequel actors were not invited. Hopefully that isn't true.

 

There was TCW panel. Also Ray Park was there, but Natalie, Ewan, Hayden, and SLJ were not. Have they ever been?

Ian is, but that's because of ROTJ.

 

The big name prequel actors mostly hate Star Wars and have better things to do with their time (and easier ways to make better money) than come to conventions. No one you're mentioning has been to a Celebration unless they were actively pushing a movie that they were in, and even then I don't actually recall Ewan or Natalie being at C3? Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

isn't Hayden living in L.A.?

 

Hayden wasn't at C4 and that was in LA.

 

Hayden is a new parent. Natalie's son is like 4.

Anyway, I just googled it looks like he was at Celebration II.

 

Yup, and none of the four celebrations since then.

 

i remember he was at Celebration II walking around in disguise.

 

Liam Neeson said he would gladly go back to SW if he was given the chance

Samuel L Jackson tweeted a photo of himself holding his old lightsaber prop last May 4th

Christopher Lee said he really enjoyed playing Count Dooku

 

If anything the ST villains have a very artistic, sleek almost PT look. I suspect we'll see some elaborate costumes and interiors which may further reflect this.

Ewan and Hayden could be working right now.

Also, Ashoka was a big part of the Clone Wars and she is a part of Rebels. Same with the some of the clones too.

Given that the big 3 original trilogy characters are in the ST it makes sense for Disney to swing back this way. We'll see some CGI for sure, but I'm happy big filmmakers see the opportunities to use both practical and CGI now.

 

Christopher Lee is in his 90's and does not leave the UK anymore.

 

I think much of it is simply because the films they are doing first happen to take place after Jedi, not a diss to PT fans as many seem to be taking it. PT Era has had a good run already and will likely again in time.

 

Thank you all for commenting. I'm sure there will be a balance, and hopefully we will get some cool spin-off films.
