Episode II Teaser Description Posted By Scott on October 22, 2001
ZL538 saw the teaser trailer for Attack of the Clones and sent in this description of it. Some people don't want the teaser spoiled, so highlight to read it:
Here's the lowdown on the new Star Wars trailer, not exactly in order, but who can remember such things when only given one opportunity to see it?
Opening Fox logo
Lucasfilm logo
Complete blackness.... you're expecting to be assualted with audio/visual maddness but all you see is black.
Then you hear out of the blackness Darth Vader breathing..
No familiar Star Wars music, no sound effects..
No sound whatsoever, just moving pictures taking us to all the planets of the new saga, and showing us familiar characters and new ones.
Shows Padme with her hair braided...
Padme and Anakin kissing...
A shot of the water planet from a distance, with what looks like 3 Cloud City type structures over the water....(sounds like the cities on Kamino - ed.)
a shot of a rocky planet...(sounds like Geonasis - ed.)
Jango Fett blasting off the ground using his back pack...
a bunch of clone kids with devices attached to their heads at computer terminals...
a shot of Yoda looking over his left shoulder...
a shot of Mace Windu looking puzzled or contemplating something...
Padme and Anakin hugging on Tatooine, probably outside the Lars homestead......
a shot of what looked like Obi-Wan either in a hologram, or actually suspened or hung from something....
a very cool looking sequence of a chase of some sort thru Corusant.
another really cool shot of Slave 1 in space flying out at you firing away with its lasers, in what appeared to be an asteroid field
again there is no sound, just visual eye candy but thats all interupted when there's the familiar sound of 2 lightsabers crashing together and I mean it was really loud.
Then what I remember being the last shot, was of thousands, maybe millions of clone troopers walking up ramps into huge transport ships..
Then the fade in of Episode II: Attack of the Clones the same as we have seen the fade in of Episode I: The Phantom Menace at the end of the first teaser.
It seems as though it was about 1/2 as long as the first trailer, it was really, really short. It will be interesting to see what people think of it since there is no music.
At first this sounds somewhat similar to the teaser shown on the DVD site of starwars.com that just features stills from the movie, but they are actually live moving shots from the movie, just without the sound. Anyway, this sounds like it's the short teaser that may be in front of Monsters Inc. No confirmation on that just yet.
Check back soon for more details! Our readers are also discussing it here in the forums if you'd like to join in.
Update!! - ZL538 checked back in with some additional info. They answer some questions people have been asking in the forums. Highlight to read:
Does Vader breathe through the whole teaser? Was Christopher Lee in it? Vader takes no more than 3-4 breaths at the beginning and that was it, totally quiet until we see the lightsaber fight. Once that fight commenced, with the huge impact of having sound all of a sudden I think jarred everybody and had everybody looking around like whoaa, and when I looked back up at the screen I believe I just saw 2 people and can't tell you with any certainty that one of those guys was Christopher Lee. But I'm pretty sure one was Anakin.
Is there anything else you forgot to mention in the first report? The only thing I remember now that I left out was that there is a scene showing Watto with a funny hat, kinda like a tartan golf hat (kind of hat Payne Stewart and samuel L. jackson wears) but with like a ball on top or something. (This was seen in one of the SW.Com videos already - ed.)
Check back tomorrow. We'll post info on where this report originated from along with proof that it and the reports on it screening with Monsters Inc. are legit.
