Aye, that's a good point, could just be that

Must not get too excited and then get hopes dashed...
Stay calm.

I watched this and then turned to my wife to ask, "Why does Han Solo look so aged but Chewbacca looks exactly the same?" She reminded me that Wookiees are supposed to live for 400 years. I'm not sure where that factoid came from, but as someone up-thread stated, I picked a good un!

I'd say the chances are good, given that they actually show this at the end of Return of the Jedi. I don't understand why there's so much speculation over the word "has" tbh.

**Sweepinghand** · 18th April 2015, 18:44

This will be a smash
Technology plus the real original team etc
Awesome

**Nin101** · 18th April 2015, 19:03

Chewbacca has aged much better than Han Solo ...

It is, thanks, it's online here:

New Snowtrooper looks amazing, a lot like the original Ralph McQuarrie design:

So looking forward to this film.

Exactly. Remember. TPM, TAOTC, ROTS

Am I the only person who hopes that Jar Jar Binks is in the film?

Whoops, meant to add, that he meets a grizzly and painful end the second that he appears on screen!

Han So Old. Baddum tish.

Harrison Ford looks pretty good for a 72 y/o tbh.

**njr911** · 20th April 2015, 10:06

I'm not ashamed to say I got a tiny bit emotional watching that trailer with my 4yo

Look at this: Father Roderick. He's a local priest (well nearly, only 30 miles from here). He's known as the Geekpriest. Here, he's explaining the trailer like it's his Sunday's sermon.

Mini MST actually asked to watch ESB, well "Star Vors" as she pronounces it, today so that she could see the the "green monster" AKA Yoda - pleased as punch that my indoctrination programme is working

Thanks for info on Harmy ! !

Ill be looking at this hopefully as ive been only watching my vhs versions from late 80s as opposed to the butchered Lucas later versions. (1990s vhs onwards and dvd)
On the face of it -its looking like my early non cgi vhs first three could even not be original.

Anyway cant wait for the latest film

**Thorien** · 22nd April 2015, 14:45

Thanks for that MST - had never heard of Harmy's version before!

**MST** · 22nd April 2015, 17:14

Welcome!

You know the original versions are included in the bluray box set I think, although that's from memory as they're upstairs and I'm too lazy to check. I also have the original cuts on DVD. In fact I've got about three or four copies of the films when you take into account blu Rays, DVDs, 1997 editions and originals :o)

I'm sorry but they aren't. I am sure that Disney will release a restored version of the original trilogy at some point though.

**swanbourne** · 23rd April 2015, 07:54

There's a new pirate drogue in this one, Aaaar2D2.

That's terrible. But I have stolen it and will be using it.

I hope they do, but suspect they will drag it out a while longer to maximise profits. I have the originals on DVD, which I got quite recently after spending ages researching the various editions. Can confirm they were never released on Blu-Ray, otherwise I would have bought that instead of the DVD version.

The DVDs are themselves a transfer from laserdisc. There hasn't been a new digital release, other than the messed-up ones, since that laserdisc version. It's not strictly speaking even DVD quality, let alone full Blu-Ray HD quality. It's also only one specific DVD box set from about 2007 (don't quote me on the exact year), which can make it hard to track down and the price fluctuates a lot (sometimes they go for upwards of £150, but I got mine for about £50, sealed NOS, from an Amazon marketplace seller).

**gunslinger** · 25th April 2015, 19:22

Just watched this on youtube. Star Wars celebration.

check out the new droid BB8 (about 29 mins in) I assumed it was totally CG but no, tis a practical working effect.

Went to see the new avengers movie with my eldest son yesterday and they showed the first star wars trailer not the latest one. Wtf?!

No need to apologise. You're right. Although no matter, I have these...

I nabbed these when they were released. Best versions.

**njr911** · 27th April 2015, 12:03

I'm going to start the Star Wars watching with my lad this weekend.

As he's only 4 I might well start with the Jar Jar Binks one.

NNNNOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooo, you'll pollute his mind. Start him off with Ep 4, the proper way to do it. ;-)

Jar Jar leads to anger. Anger leads to the dark side.

Also Machete Order

^^^ This

Ep4 first otherwise I can guarantee that fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate and hate leads to suffering!

As a good friend of mine succinctly put it:

"This better not be shit"

I think we can all relate to that.

I prefer options 3 and 4, with 4 being my final decision if it was a first time viewing

edit: 3! i meant 3 bein my final decision for the first time

When I first glanced at your post I thought it said As he's only 41...

**humphriespaul** · 27th April 2015, 21:33

Just watched the originals with my just about 4 year olds....both in floods of tears about Darth Vadar/Annakin at the end....

**Highroller** · 29th April 2015, 07:46

CAN't wait for this film!!!

**dougair** · 2nd May 2015, 15:43

My son is 18 months, getting him started nice and early!

**Phil Lee** · 2nd May 2015, 15:58

My 2 year old loves Rebels and Clone Wars.

**julian2002** · 5th May 2015, 16:09

Wish my 3yo had an interest in Star Wars but nothing.
I on the other hand am contemplating the 4,5,6, then 7 at midnight in IMAX marathon on release day at my local cinema with my father in law...

My lads (5 and 2.5) got into it via the Lego Star Wars cartoon route - easy way to learn the basics about Darth V etc
- now graduated onto what my elder son calls "adult Star Wars" 😀 (episodes IV to VI only)
