Loved it.
..BUT
at least they're taking it somewhere.....otherwise Star Wars had been relegated collecting dust on the cinematic shelves of history.
The last big ship design in the trailer is new???? !!!!!!!!¬
If you cut an X wings wing off, stick a falcons cabin on the front engine, that's your "new "design. It looks, like quite a few of the new ships that have been introduced , just wrong. And lazy. No elegance , no military function or structure, just clumsy as hell.
The updated A wing whose tail you can see in the exploding landing bay shot and in the blurry still above looks great ,like the new X wing did from TFA. But this obsession with over sized wings and lego brick like designs are neither a movement forward or an innovative design. The toy sales from these are going to crash to the ground like that horrible B wing brick from TFA.
That eyeroll emoji doesnt cut it. I havent gone through all the posts made in this thread, but have you been as vocal as you are right now since the new movies started? Are you an OT purist, or do you like the prequels too? I dont see how a fan of Star Wars doesnt like what they are doing with Ep 7 and Ep 8(so far). Who knows, I could be wrong, but the trailer is just meant to get you excited for the movie, and I think it did its job. It was just a teaser anyway.Dust would've been preferable honestly. I was not happy when LFL was sold because I was afraid Disney would do exactly what they are doing. They'll just keep milking it until its truly dead. Then the reboots will come.
Does this sound familiar to you?
TIE Fighter- Such a cool design!
TIE Advanced- Unoriginal copy of TIE fighter with slightly bent wings
TIE Bomber- Booo, those lazy designers just changed the cockpit of the TIE Advanced! SW ruined!
TIE Interceptor- Worst design in the film ever! Life ruined! They just changed the wings of the original TIE Fighter...
If not, then you sir are a hypocrite.

Foxbatkllr - being candid, I've disagreed with much of what you've said in this thread - but not on this one point. Additional films post-ROTJ would only even need to exist if there was some sort of conflict to give rise to the story. And I'm glad those films exist, even if they necessarily mean that everything post-ROTJ has to be revealed to have been less than a fairy-tale ending. But the OT was always to me, at its heart, about the camaraderie of the big 3 (an element sorely lacking in the poor chemistry of the leads in the PT) - heck, the major plot points of ESB and ROTJ revolved around the mechanics of one or more of this small group laying everything on the line to help another of the group (Han risking his life to search for Luke on Hoth, Luke leaving Dagobah to save Han and Leia, Luke and Leia going to Tatooine to save Han.)My biggest criticism of this post ROTJ Disneyverse is that it has completely tainted the end of ROTJ for me. That doesn't mean that everything has to be sunshine and daisies after ROTJ but the least they could've done is have a reunion of the big 3 at the beginning of TFA.
Ok so the background voices in the Teaser...
When you see the back of Leia's head, you hear her say "Help me Obi-Wan.."
Then when you see Kylo Ren's helmet, you hear Obi-Wan say, "He was seduced by the Darkside..."
Then when you see the Tree, Yoda says something but it's much harder for me to understand. Sounds like "Train him..." but there's a second part to it that I can't pick out.
Any ideas?
I would have been happier to have two more seasons of the clone wars

I can't make out what Yoda is saying at all. Anyone else?
