"October 19, 2004 - There are few films whose trailers can draw crowds to theaters all by themselves. The Star Wars prequels have proven to be among those few, and next month will they will exert their influence once again as fans converge on local theaters for a glimpse of Revenge of the Sith. So which movie is the lucky one? That was a guarded secret until this week, but now Cinescape is reporting that the trailer will be shipped with The Incredibles, Pixar's new animated film which opens November 5th. We suggested this as one possibility in last week's Star Wars trailer update. Cinescape's source also mentions that theater managers in some cases might choose to put the trailer on another movie instead. If you're set on seeing the Sith preview on the weekend of November 5th, it would be smart to check with the manager at your local cinema for confirmation. If you can't wait for the big screen, the teaser will also most likely be aired on the November 4th broadcast of Access Hollywood, which is syndicated by NBC in the US. An online version will probably appear the same evening, and Hyperspace subscribers might get an early peek (there's no official word yet). Posters and banners will also probably begin appearing in theater venues once the first trailer is out. Stay tuned for more!"

i don't get that cartoon

10/22/2004 4:05:53 PM

Is there really a thread heralding the fucking trailer of a movie we all know is going to suck?

10/22/2004 4:07:06 PM

i only saw parts of 'phantom menace', and it bored me. made a bad decision of actually agreeing to go to the theatre with my friend to see 'attack of the clones' and fell asleep during it. i really don't get why people act like star wars is so great

10/22/2004 4:13:25 PM

^Because it used to be.

^^When the trailer for The Phantom Menace was released, movie ticket sales went up 25% that weekend compared to the previous weekend. There were reports of people walking out of Meet Joe Black after the SW trailer.

10/22/2004 4:20:47 PM

star wars was never "good"

innovative, yes
good, not exactly

10/22/2004 4:28:06 PM

^Blasphemy

10/22/2004 4:31:16 PM

anyone who would pay for a movie just to see a trailer, then walk out after the trailer is a goddamn jackass

10/22/2004 4:32:19 PM

i could really care less about some sort of "story" or "character development"

i'm all about the industrial design and special effects at this point

10/22/2004 4:32:45 PM

^indeed.

The first 3 are crap. They just look pretty.

10/22/2004 4:33:48 PM

ESB still holds up well today against any action movie or fantasy film Hollywood has made since its release.

10/22/2004 4:39:08 PM

^true


the EP3 preview stuff on the original dvd release had some shots of vader vs ben (pre lava with blue screen) and hayden walking around in the vader suit thinking he was cool.

hayden needs to get his ass beat in the first 5 minutes so the rest of the movie we can see vader with james earl jones' voice.

10/22/2004 4:44:36 PM

about the cartoon--it's in reference to the star wars: galaxies MMORPG. apparantly SOE (the same business that runs Everquest) are real asshats about customer service... i mean, real asshats.

and yea, that mmorpg sucks. i'm sad that i payed money to play it.

Dude, it's Penny Arcade. You just don't get it because you don't follow all the gaming industry news and read the three page explanation of the joke on the front page you ignant sumbitch.

10/22/2004 5:15:21 PM

actually if you ever READ PA you would see they DONT explain the strip on the front page, they just give an intro and the post is about something else.

10/22/2004 7:53:40 PM

I think that 1/2 the people that saw the Wing Commander movie were there to see The Phantom Menace trailer. I still remember the review for Wing Commander.

"I was treated to the greatest display of science-fiction/fantasy I had ever seen. Then The Phantom Menace trailer ended, and Wing Commander began"

10/22/2004 8:33:01 PM

Anyone who still likes star wars after the last two is the definition of a tool.

10/22/2004 9:29:39 PM

<-----Tool

10/22/2004 9:45:12 PM

anyone who doesn't want to see Darth Vader become Darth Vader is a tool

episodes 4 to 6 were fuckin awesome, great movies


its just the new ones that are so-so

10/22/2004 9:51:35 PM

I'm far more interested in seeing THE INCREDIBLES than I am seeing REVENGE OF THE SITH -- much less the trailer for ROTS (and I say that like I don't know the trailer for ROTS will be much much more satisfying than the actual ROTS movie).

"SPOILER WARNING! The first half of trailer consists of ... (begin spoilers - highlight to read) a familiar voice over with Alec Guinness. Fans will love to hear him speak his monologue to Luke from A New Hope about "Jedi Knights always being the guardians of peace." As we hear these familiar phrases, they've intercut shots from various Star Wars episodes, excluding Episode 3. Only when the monologue ends with "Vader was seduced by the dark side of the Force" about 40 seconds into the trailer do we see the face of Anakin. He is partly covered with dark hood, looking positively evil. This is followed by the shot of erupting volcanoes, then some sort of volcanic field with crab-like creatures and then darkness, all accompanied by Vader breathing. Then the following is heard: Sidious: "Lord Vader..." Vader: "Yes?" Sidious: "Rise." Then we see Anakin in full Vader gear rising on some sort of operating table to which he is chained. The rising is slow and is intercut with shot of various Star Wars main characters. When the table has fully risen so that Vader is basically standing upright, the meatiest part of trailer begins, with many, many shots from Episode III. Most of them are very, very short - this will be something for freeze-frame fanatics to analyze. The ones that stuck in my memory: Dozens of Wookiees on some sort of floating platform. Padme with signature Leia hairdo. The Tri-Fighter, aka the precursor to the TIE fighter with three curving wings and guns mounted between each wing. They shoot red lasers. The ARC Clonefigthter, aka the precursor to X-Wing, with three wings on each side. A gigantic starship being sprayed by streams of something that looks like dense acid. The trailer ends with the title "THE SAGA IS COMPLETE - MAY 2005" and ... (end spoilers) is about 100 seconds long. "

10/23/2004 4:50:40 PM

so now that they're calling it revenge of the sith, is it gonna be Return of the Sith when it comes out?

11/1/2004 3:17:30 AM

jedi was changed because jedi aren't mean and don't seek "revenge"

sith are bad

revenge will stay
