    This video being released on my birthday increases my chances of winning, right?

    I just noticed that there are animals in the upper and lower cages as well. The thing in the upper cage does look a lot like that frog thing that eats the mouse thing and burps in front of Jabbas palace. Though the face of the Turkeytrader is not moving that much, the little bird things in the middle cage move very lifelike and a great indication of the advances in animatronics.

    Whoa...did not expect an image from the set so soon - that is AWESOME!

    I was only able to look at the screenshots for the moment, I'll have to wait to watch the full video later, but wow. I'm definitely getting Labyrinth/Dark Crystal vibes from that creature and it certainly looks like it'll be on Tatooine.

    Oh sweet! found $50K stuffed inbetween the sofa cushions. Grand Master of the Order it is then. In all seriousness this is cool, the video just builds hype. I know people are sick of Tatooine but that brings back memories and gets me hyped. That creature is awesome and I want it to be the hero of its own spin off.

    Don't worry guys--in the new Star Trek movies, there are alien creatures that are puppets, humans in alien makeup, CGI aliens, and different combinations of the three. Abrams isn't gonna go completely old-school and not use any CGI.

    I agree. I got a touch emotional because this whole thing took a big leap in being more real (as in it happening) to me. That creature is awesome.

    Those large frying pans in the background look like they could cook up a nice paella - maybe it's just the catering tent...

    Sure, but in Star Trek the CGI creatures were a little bit more subtle than this

    You do realize how many effects in the PT were actually practical, right? Far more than the OT movies had, lets put it that way.

    I didn't even mention the PT, nor did I come here to talk about the PT. Go to that forum.

    I kind of liked him too but I didn't like the way they used CGI in that scene.
