    I still think the story will be derivative, cliched crap.

    BUT... Cameron does tech soooooo well. Just plain neato stuff here.

    Giovani Ribissi just made a joke at the reporter's expense. That is fucking AWESOME.

    There's no way that James Cameron would put this much time and care into this film and have them mining "unobtanium."

    Wow, that docu-trailer was the first one to actually make me believe the movie is going to be really good.

    Does anyone know if there's a "proper" name for this type of in-your-face advertising? A similar style with wordplay has been in the Powerthirst, Brawndo, and others.

    This is just a counter to the popular ad campaign of "What happens in Coruscant, stays in Coruscant."

    @ManchuCandidate: i had to look it up to make sure you were being witty and not just referencing some other fan-vid (which would have been pretty much as awesome anyway).

    which brings me to my next point, we should make a fan vid.

    @ManchuCandidate: There was actually a period of time when they offered tours on the Death Star.

    This was from the brochure:

    No, that's not a small moon. That's the Empire's newest superweapon. But did you know it's also a fully operational and wonderful vacation destination? The Death Star has an ice rink, indoor golf course and a 2750-seat amphitheater. It also has four swimming pools, volleyball and basketball courts, and a youth zone with theme parks and nurseries for children. Cruise the Empire in style! Call 800-DEATH-STAR today!

    @RandomFrequentFlierDent:

    And the shopping! I mean, you can find multiple outfits for romancing your future Sith Lord hubby! Everything from ornate dresses to dominatrix wear (which will no doubt influence your future Sith Lord hubby's predilection for goth wear), Naboo has it!
