Just got goosebumps at the new trailer, it was amazing to hear and then see Chewy and Hans Solo at the end of it. The crashed Imperial ship was cool. This is going to be epic and maybe even haunting.

No, but you're coming off as an uber-Star-Wars fan and the name of Han Solo is probably one of the most famous names in the history of movies, so it was just surprising you would make that mistake.

This trailer hasn't shown up on the trailmix drives yet, unless it's living under some goofy code name. I wonder if it will theatrical-debut with the new Avengers? That would make sense.

I'm probably one of the younger folks on here, being only 29. When I was growing up, my parents were pretty strict about what we could watch. I had seen less than 20 movies by the time I was a teenager, but Star Wars was one of the movies I could watch. I wore out so many copies of the original trilogy on VHS. Star Wars is just so strongly linked with my childhood that it was really like seeing my long lost friends. I absolutely cried happy tears when Han and Chewie came on screen. So excited!

No, he does not. You also got Chewbacca's nickname wrong, but he did not correct that.

It's "Chewie." "Chewy" is an adjective used to describe food that requires extra mastication.

Btw, somebody managed to record Matthew McConna-hay as he watched the new trailer. I think he's looking forward to it too.

It's "Chewie."

And I actually did notice that, but I wasn't sure if there was an "official" spelling of Chewbacca's nickname.

Did you ever see any of the original trilogy in movie theaters?

I am just amazed about why you care about such silly stuff?

Anyways, have you seen the trailer?

Yes, when I was 11 I saw the 1997 Special Edition re-release, all three, in theaters.

Well, Terrie Lynns-Stevens, you just lost your geek-coupon. [Frown]

And b.t.w... Han(s) shot first!

Making a comment on a forum isn't the same as "caring." In the big picture it doesn't matter.

I'm waiting for it to debut with Avengers. I don't like to watch trailers on Youtube. Ruins the impact.
