Being on Apple makes this one believable but not sure if it fits the 88 second mark that JJ specified.
My first thought was why Episode IV era Tie fighters and X-wings 40 years later but I guess if peace has reigned during that time there might not have been development and they were pulled out of mothball storage. |

For a teaser I expected at least a quick shot of Luke, Leia, Han, and/or Chewie. The original cast being in it was just as big if not bigger than the news of the movie itself. Instead we get a ball with a droid head, a Christianity-Saber, and a trooper caught taking a dump in the desert.
I liked the X-wings over water, the Falcon, and the new trooper helmets. Popsicle speeder... dumb. Ball droid looks like this trilogy's Jar Jar... dumb... but droids have been long over due for an upgrade. The same R2 and 3PO models for 2 generations. They've definitely gotten their miles worth on them. Too bad Interstellar beat them to T.A.R.S. Might have been cool to have something like that. The lightsaber effects is interesting and pretty cool. It's not the typical light blade, it has kind of an firery-electricity effect to it. But those hilt blades are SO DUMB!!! I don't think you'll ever match the level of "HOLY *****" that the Episode 1 trailer had when it showed Darth Maul with his duel saber. So please. Stop trying to one up with gimmicky light sabers. Everything cool that can be done with a lightsaber has been done. Move on. Please. Overall... it was exactly what it was: a TEASE. The movie doesn't come out for another year. So I'm guessing they won't have enough of the post production done to give a full length trailer for another 6 months. |

If secrecy is no longer a factor it must be a lot cheaper to simply recruit and train normal men than grow them. |

For days, speculation has swirled about when and where the first look at the next Star Wars would debut. On Monday, Bad Robot's Twitter account tweeted a note from the filmmaker confirming that that 88 seconds of footage would be debuting in theaters this Friday. Disney later revealed that the footage would be screening in just 30 theaters across the U.S. and Canada, with the teaser showing before every single showing of every single movie in the select theaters throughout the weekend.

The Empire was always depicted as being racist, which is why every Imperial shown in the original trilogy is played by an actor of white European decent. No aliens. No dark people.
