My take is that it looks fantastic, but it breaks my heart to see the Millennium Falcon subjected to such modern Hollywood \u201cswirly camera\u201d movements. It\u2019s a minor complaint though, and it could be a lot worse.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Like this\u2026<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCXoIFuHdVHm-Zp9umA2seRQ\">YouTube user timtimfed<\/a> has uploaded the absolute best spoof of the trailer you\u2019ll ever see. What if <em>Star Wars: The Force Awakens<\/em> was left in the hands of none other than Mr. George Lucas himself? Naturally, every last drop of nerd rage and humor aimed at <em>Star Wars<\/em> since 1997 is brought to life with the new visuals.<\/p>\n<p>New digital effects and out of place characters, a digital Sy Snootles and Jabba the Hutt, digital Jango Fett clones, digital head re-positioning to dodge incoming lasers, and the Millennium Falcon taking on an entire fleet of digital TIE Fighters. Sadly, they were unable to visualize digital trade negotiations, but they don\u2019t forget to mention it\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>You get the idea. Lots and lots of needless digital additions. The trailer\u2019s tagline even quotes the infamous words from the prequel trilogy producer Rick McCallum: \u201cIt\u2019s so dense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, the twirly camera movements don\u2019t seem so bad. Maybe I\u2019ll stop being skeptical and appreciate the fact that <em>Star Wars<\/em> actually looks like <em>Star Wars<\/em> again.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sourcevia-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"sourcevia fCaps fLS0\"><span class=\"label fLS1\">SOURCE<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCXoIFuHdVHm-Zp9umA2seRQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YOUTUBE<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By now, you\u2019ve most likely seen the Star Wars: The Force Awakens teaser trailer about a hundred times and dissected every frame to determine if you are interested in seeing it or not.
