It's worth it, trust me.

I found it here:

OMFG!!! I need to change my drawers!!

[Johnboy007]

Pretty damn cool.

[Prav_007]

God bless you Tarl!! That trailer was amazing.

[Mister Asterix]

Judging the book by its cover, this film looks better than the last two. Still not going to put my butt in a seat. Ep II was just so bad and boring that Geo L is going to need to do better to pry any money from me this time.

[Qwerty]

Looks much better than the first two.

[Gabe Vieira]

As Mr. Garrison so eloquently put it, "Jesus Tapdancing ."

THEY JUST SHOWED IT ON TRL HERE IN THE USA!!! IT ENDED LIKE TWO MINUTES AGO!!!

[Athena007]

Hum... can't seem to view any of the movie links

But one thing, I think the teaser poster sucks. I mean there's fan art for Ep III that's better than that poster.

[Max Zorin]

I agree...the poster looks unbelievable tacky.

[Gabe Vieira]

Screw the poster!!! Only Empire will be better than Revenge!!!

[Max Zorin]

I dunno about that...the first is a timeless classic, the second a masterpiece, and the third is chock full of muppets.

Hard to beat THAT.

[Brix Bond]

Hmm...I can't view any of the trailers either. The one Tarl posted is 'Forbidden'.

I must admit that having worked with trailers closely for the past three years that this one is right up there. It's true that quite a bit of the trailer shows us nothing new, but the new stuff that they do show is pretty amazing. I am and always will be a Star Wars fan and this trailer just reconfirms that I'll be there opening night; hopefully at the Graumen's Chinese!

You will be amazed!

Looks amazing. Although I'm very disappointed that

the Wookiees look digitized. My God, can they not do anything for real anymore?

[trs007]

Great stuff, thanks for the alternate links, definitely sets the mood and anticipation for May 19.

[SnakeEyes]

Bah, i've been suckered into seeing it now at the cinema.

Damn you for showing me this trailer.

[hrabb04]

I will be there for the first showing. This one looks really good. Been watching Empire a lot lately. I am in the mood for a movie where the good guys gets their butts kicked

[Alex Zamudio]

Hey! Thanks a lot for the links, I just downloaded it from the one of the links kindly posted by you fine folks, the one that worked for me was:

http://www.worldofepic.net/ep3.mov

Although it took a lot for the page (going directly to the movie) to load, I thought it didn't work, left the computer unattended, and a few minutes latter the trailer started.

I saved it in to my hard drive, right clicking in the link, and choosing save destination as...

Thanks a lot, you made my day! never though I would find this in CBn, just goes to show what a cool community this is!

Regards.

[Tarl_Cabot]

I saw it for free at that link I provided earlier. I'm not now gonna pay to see a trailor of a movie i intend to see in a theater. I hated the first two prequels but this trailor has wiped away all the fanboy bitterness and has me fired up for III. It looks awesome. I could be wrong again but I'd rather be optimistic.Maybe I'm just a poor sap.

[The Admiral]

Hearing the voice of Darth Vader again... Made my spine tingle

"Yes Master"

[Prav_007]

So did:


"Rise"

Looks good, Yoda looks a bit tougher and..... hollowgraphic.

[Loomis]

Absolutely. Presumably, one gets more than just this teaser trailer in return for splashing out to become a hypergeek, er, hypersleep---- sorry, hyperspace member, but, still, one should not have to pay to be advertised to. This trailer ought to be on Apple, surely? Why isn't it?

Anyway, I didn't think much of it. EPISODE III looks like a wall-to-wall festival of fake-looking CGI (what a surprise). Those shots of Alec Guinness are like oases of proper acting and, y'know, real people and real things in a desert of lousy performances (hello, Hayden) and computerised images so shoddy and loudly-coloured they make your eyes hurt. And it's not as though Guinness will even be in the finished film.

To echo a point by Double-Oh-Zero, Yoda looks horrible. Anyone remember when the character was a puppet rather than a bunch of pixels, and looked so real and solid you felt you could reach out and touch him?

*Sigh*

Well, I'll still be seeing EPISODE III. I think, though, that this trailer tries to sell it as a blend of "old school STAR WARS" (Guinness, "real" sets, creatures, etc.) and "new STAR WARS" (basically nothing but CGI as far as the eye can see), and I'm sure that the film will actually be 100% "new STAR WARS".

You mean Prav_007, sorry to be selfish but Double-oh-zero mentioned about the wookies or Chewbacca.

[Loomis]

Oh, yes, you called Yoda "hollowgraphic". A good way of describing a character who's literally become a shadow of his former self.

[Janus Assassin]

Just got done watching it.

I am left speechless

[Bond_Bishop]

Amazing. This will be great

[Harmsway]

It looks great, but I'm not sold. Lucas has the ability to provide excellent hype for his movies even when they're poor films. The shot of Vader rising does make all 3 prequels worth it, though... It's a shame Vader is only in it for about the last five minutes! Come on Lucas, don't let me down... it's your last shot, so make it count!

[Blofeld's Cat]

So how does Hayden's voice drop about 20 octaves to the level of James Earl Jones, and grow a few feet higher to the level of David Prowse?
