Deranged Rhino Posted November 28, 2014 Posted November 28, 2014 I'm guessing as well, but it sounded like Serkis.
Rubes Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 (edited) I found that to be pretty underwhelming. Nice that it has a JJ Abrams look to it, but I don't know if I'd even call that a "teaser". By the way, it was confirmed as Serkis. Edited November 30, 2014 by Rubes
John Adams Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 I found that to be pretty underwhelming. Nice that it has a JJ Abrams look to it, but I don't know if I'd even call that a "teaser". By the way, it was confirmed as Serkis. It's the definition of a teaser. More footage than I expected. I've seen teasers that just showed a movie title. A Batman teaser one time was just a 3D model of the symbol.
Wayne Cubed Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 It's the definition of a teaser. More footage than I expected. I've seen teasers that just showed a movie title. A Batman teaser one time was just a 3D model of the symbol. Yea I would say it's more footage than I expected considering priciple filming just finished but obviously way less than a trailer. Surprised by the amount of CGI that's finished as well. I remember during the Super Bowl the Dark Knight teaser was just the Batman symbol with flashes of light breaking it apart and Michael Caine doing a voice over. That's it.
dpberr Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 I'm bored with JJ Abrams and I think it was a terrible idea to give the same director both Star Trek and Star Wars. In a few years you'll feel like Kirk could do a crossover and pilot an Imperial starship and Yoda is hanging out with Sulu on the bridge. I don't think Abrams he's a good storyteller. Alias and Lost are probably his best works and for how great those series were they ended quite terribly insofar as story goes. He also recycles plot devices and music scores. Watch his Mission Impossible take and a Star Trek. You'll sense the familiarity. You combine that with Disney and you'll get an "ok", fast food film. Satisfy you in the instant but you'll forget it and still remember the classics.
Mark Vader Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 "And the light"... I have to admit that last sequence gave me a little chill. Looks fun to me. Agree. Gave me a little chill too. It looks very JJ Abrams-esque with some sprinkles of 'Star Wars' shots mixed in. The opening when John Boyega pops up on screen, which is an Abrams type shot, was very cool. I think it'll be fun and it's nice that it's got a different feel than previous Star Wars. I found that to be pretty underwhelming. Nice that it has a JJ Abrams look to it, but I don't know if I'd even call that a "teaser". By the way, it was confirmed as Serkis. GreggyT & Wayne Cubed, I love the last shot with the Millenium Falcon, but seeing the X-Wings, the new look Stormtroopers & that crossed light sabre got me all excited. Rubes, this was definitely a teaser. As John Adams pointed out some teasers are just background music, a voice over, a symbol and/or a title. This had actual footage which surprised me, when you consider that this movie is a year away. And thanks for confirming that it was Serkis doing the voice over, I thought it was Max Von Sydow.
Deranged Rhino Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 I finally made it to a theater this weekend to catch up on Interstellar and to see the trailer in IMAX -- it didn't disappoint and felt less CGI'd (which is ridiculous I know) on the big screen than it did watching on my computer screen. The funniest part for me was when they put up the release date at the end (December 2015) and the packed theater let out a collective "BOOO!" The guy next to me was so upset, "Why would they do that? Why would they make us wait so long"... he sounded like he was 13 but he had to be closer to 60.

Doc Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 That's a teaser of a teaser. But the movie is coming out in a year, so...
TheMadCap Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 Major spoilers have been leaked by an alleged insider. I won't post the link, but it is way easy to find, as Google is your friend. No one is sure how much is true or what is bunk, but if you are interested, give it a read. If true, this movie will certainly be dark, and way better than anything in the prequels...

It's easy to find, if you WANT to find it. I find it to be just as easy as remaining spoiler free, because I don't go looking for plot details on movies. J.J. Abrams normally does a great job of keeping the lid on his movies, although this might be too big for him to control. Having said that, if what you say is true, that makes the anticipation even more exciting. Maybe Anthony Daniels was onto something when he said that Episode VII has potential to be better than "Empire".

Gotta say, as an old Star Trek nut, I was excited when he was chosen to oversee the Star Trek re-boot... not so much because I am a huge JJ Abrams fan, but people "in the know" on these things, kept telling me how great he was...must say, the first Star Trek re-boot flik was fun, for about a half an hour, but the rest, and the sequal were pretty dull... almost got the feeling that the second Abrams got the Star Wars gig, he just lost all interest in the Star Trek "franchise". That said, I loved the original Star Wars flik, and this trailer certainly looks a lot more like it, in spirit anyways, than the three most recent fliks....probably see it when it comes out on blu-ray. I am sure you have all seen this by now, but if not, it is good for a chuckle... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0099FXLv2U

Rubes Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) J.J. Abrams normally does a great job of keeping the lid on his movies, although this might be too big for him to control. It certainly seems that way. I think I see at least one story a week online that claims to have set photos or script snippets that reveal something about the storyline. It seems less and less possible as the years go by to keep pretty much anything secret. Then again, like you said, I can avoid the spoilers just as easily... Edited December 11, 2014 by Rubes

That and the studio can intentionally leak fake spoilers in hopes that the real ones get lost in the sea of fake information.
