Have been so out of the Star Wars loop that I didn't even know this was coming out, but apparently it's due this December.





After being disappointed with The Force Awakens, I'm kind of dubious, but this movie looks like it won't have as much of the baggage of trying to copy the old films just to pacify the fans, and honestly looks like an entirely different kind of Star Wars movie than anything that's been made up to this point. Obviously they're still trying to draw people in with nods to the original trilogy, but I like the idea of fleshing out the Star Wars universe without having to commit to some grand vision that will be forced to live up to the original trilogy.

And as tactically unsound as AT-AT's are, that last bit kinda gave me a boner. Too bad that Forrest Whitaker sounds awful.
