What I wanted to point out was that you can pull off putting one classic actor even in a reboot, but now with the three of them it just feel cheesy. Plus I don't want to have "Look, it's Ford playing Han again" and "OMG is that Hamill" moments in my new Star Wars. Ford has never cared much for SW (and his best role in the last years was in, erm, "Morning Glory"?), and, like you said yourself, Fisher and Hamill don't have much potential other than their nostalgic value. From an in-universe view, Luke could have his Yoda moment, and I can picture Leia an elderly regent, but Han should have live fast and died in his Millennium Porsche 550.

IMO JJ Abrams did a brilliant job with his Star Trek reboot and incorporating Nimoy there, but to have Shatner appear, too, would have killed the movie instantly. I'm not totally against writing a new chapter to Luke, Leia and Han's story (although the little bits I caught from the EU were not too convincing so far), but to me the characters had their closure, and I wish the makers of the new Star Wars had a chance to start with a clean table. Bringing back the old actors just feels like a cheap "class reunion" shot at publicity that the franchise just doesn't need.

Star Trek Into Darkness, in theaters May 17, 2013
electric indigo replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
According to the analysis at trekmovie, the Enterprise is already in the ocean at the planet with the volcano; sending her into Francisco bay again later in the movie would be kinda lame. Maybe it's Harrison's ship crashing?- 1020 replies

My main concern is that SW 7 will have to come up with some kind of story how Leia and Han lived happily ever after (or did they?) after Ep. 4 and that this will ruin the characters in the same way the prequels ruined Darth Vader for me.

I also remember a convincing facelift for Bruce Willis in "Surrogates". But then again, why shouldn't they use the characters at an actual old age in SW7? (edit: DT, you beat me to it)

Oblivion, in theaters April 19, 2013.
electric indigo replied to Lobizon's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I love the production design. Some hints make me wonder if the plot turns out like Pandorum, where there's a nasty surprise for the space traveling survivors. Some caps from the trailer - note the repeated presence of drone 166 in the clip; it also has a wicked "nose art".- 90 replies

from the interweb: "The ship will be packed with 2 in-scale DWG229 Meranka Class Fighters + a Mecha Collection sized version of the same fighter (which will put it around the same scale as the Cosmo Falcon of the same collection)"

Just build the Battroid from the Bandai kit and the fighter from Hase. That's what I'll do with mine.
