Star Wars Episode VIII (SPOILER FREE)
« on: February 15, 2017, 02:25 PM »
Figured we should get this started for those of us that want to avoid as many spoilers as possible.

Does anyone know when the official teaser is going to be released?

Just based on what I just posted in the Spoiler thread I would guess at Celebration

Anyone know when we'll get a real trailer?  Or was that it?

I thought for sure we would have seen one in front of Spider-Man:Homecoming, but now I think we'll be waiting until October.
This is the way.

I guess Disney can do whatever they want and still sell a trillion tickets, but it's getting to the point where it just seems really weird.

Any whispers on when pre-sale tickets are going to take place?

Mark Hamill teases new TLJ trailer October 9th.

That's probably when tickets go on sale as well.
This is the way.

Is there really a reason for tickets to go on sale months in advance? There will be plenty of time to see it. Even first day morning tickets never sell out. I guess if you really need a midnight showing but I would avoid it. Too many obsessed fans making noise during the movie. Maybe I'm just getting old. This is the usual pure hype.

I like the pre-sales.  I've taken the kids to the 7PM opening showing for TFA and RO.  Both sold out within hours of going online months ahead of time.

Maybe it depends on the theater you go to, but I live in suburbia and the crowds are very respectful.  There are a handful of fans dressed up, but its not hardcore - its mostly families.

Does anyone know the nature of the special content in the TLJ 6pm showings on 12/14? I’m hoping it’s not much behind the scenes footage as I am going into this movie free of seeing trailers and any content in general. I would like to have the movie start and just absorb it all as it happens.

I thought you just got a ticket, pop, popcorn, and some small trinket.  I've not heard of different video content before.  Has that been rumored/announced?

Thats a good point about the word "video" content. Most showings list "exclusive content" but don't mention the word video. Here's the listing for the zoo IMAX.

My guess is the “exclusive content” is the trinket.
