New Star Wars Episode II Trailer Out

Posted by michael on from the hype-hype-baby dept.

danov writes: "A new trailer for Star Wars Episode II has been released on Apple's website. It's called "Forbidden Love"." Don't watch this one if you want to be surprised when you see the movie. It gives away most of the plot. You have been warned. Update: 11/16 12:49 GMT by M : If you get "referral denied", just hit reload. Silly Apple.

    I mean, who was supposed to know that Amidala and Anakin fell in love? And that there would be fighting involving lightsabers? Damn it, Lucas, I wanted the plot to be a surprise! The next thing you know, Obi-wan will push Anakin into lava!

    Here's my plan:

    1) Kill the actor playing Annakin
    2) Take acting lessons
    3) Beat out everyone else during the screen test for Episode III so *I* can be the one that gets to be Luke's father, if you catch my drift.

    Imagine if Episode III were rated XXX...

    No Jar-Jar sightings in the trailer...

    Please, let this be a sign of things to come...

    • Mr. Lucas will have the innovative and cunning idea of creating prequels.

    The really clever bit is the way he avoided carefully making any reference to anything that happens in the prequels when he made 4-6, so that the prequels appear to be non-canon and irrelevant at best, contradictory at worst. That was some forethought, George!

    I'm taking bets that Jar Jar turns out to be Boba Fett. Then the rape of my childhood memories will be complete.
