It looks like shit.

God damn it guys, stop posting shitty fake trailers.

Now, I know this is star wars and all. But honestly, that lightsaber looks full on herp derp. I mean in most cases, a lightsaber was pretty practical. A handle that was, well, easy to handle. And because of that, that gave a lot of flexability.

Those two "sword catchers" on the side of that saber means that that particular sith fellow is going to be landlocked to a particular moveset big time. I'm aware that there are various styles of saber combat. But all of them are flexible and versatile.

If that sith doesn't fight like a swordsman I call BS.

Given that the crossguard is two lightsabers itself, he's gonna be even more restricted than what you'd think. A lightsaber already means no half-swording, but this outright prohibits many upper hilt holds and puts him at an even bigger risk of injuring himself if his sword is pushed back in a clash. Highly impractical for swordfighting, more so than a lightsaber already is.

As if Star Wars was practical in the first place...

BioSmiley · November 28, 2014, 09:45:09 AM

Such an odd looking light saber.

And I believe that black Stormtrooper will the first to die.

Like I said. By nature it's star wars. There's a little room for leeway. But that saber catchers on that hilt? HOW ABOUT A FUCKIN' NOPE.

The Hån · November 28, 2014, 09:47:39 AM

So what does star-wars do to break the years of silence, and what's the very first impression?

random black guy.

Kinder Graham · November 28, 2014, 09:50:09 AM

Nope, not believing this is the real trailer

Why is everyone in denial about this being the real trailer?

Turkey · November 28, 2014, 09:57:14 AM

Not digging the Abrams feel. Star Trek needed it for the younger generation, but Star Wars doesn't have that problem.

Also, the lightsaber looks retarded and I'm hoping it turns out to be some sort of pike or staff.

Because it's so bad that it's on par with all those shitty fan made ones.

I'm not surprised though. I've been excepting it to be awful ever since it's working title was revealed to be "An Ancient Evil Awakens".

Was he supposed to be a jump scare? JJ Abrams confirmed racist.

Casper · November 28, 2014, 09:57:44 AM

Fake.

There are no black people in Star Wars.

big dog · November 28, 2014, 09:58:28 AM

Looks decent. Kinda corny, but like the originals.

Always two, there are.

Lightsaber looks awful but if you didnt get chills or at least excited than youre probably not a fan of Star Wars.

I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but that's not the title. "An Ancient Evil Awakens" was the tagline from the first Halo 4 teaser.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. The little rolly robot thing was adorbs and the Stormtrooper armor was update appropriately, but that speeder bike thing looked funny (I'm hoping it has a practical purpose, like related to moisture farming or something).It seemed like all the ship moments were focused on being insane rather than practical or meaningful. I'll be severely disappointed if it's basically JJ's Star Trek set in the Star Wars universe.

His Star Trek films are alright, but they're not even remotely as deep as the rest of the series. Less concerned about philosophy, and more concerned about insane special effects and the Rule of Cool.

If he's going that way, he might as well just make a crossover already.

I'm assuming he'll be able to turn them off if he wants, kind of like how Darth Maul can use one end of his lightsaber instead of both.

Mr. Psychologist · November 28, 2014, 10:37:44 AM

That was... underwhelming...

I'm not even a big star wars fan, let alone onboard the hype train. But... that was kind of just... ehhhhhhhhh
:l

That lightsabre though, that's platinum tier stupidity.

Statefarm · November 28, 2014, 10:38:36 AM

Ehhhhhhhhhhh looks more low budget then I expected
