Villain, no question.

Although this is pretty badass...

Now I have a new older, disgruntled Jedi to use for my pitch.

As backstory, I haven't let him watch AOTC, yet...mainly b/c Jango getting his head chopped off...but the little sneak turned on the movie one day when I was busy, and of course so that 1 part. I knew it would become a fixation and with him...
You probably created the fixation by not letting him see it. And making it known that was the reason. Had you not mentioned or reacted at all he may not have even noticed.

Marvel wasted him. Might as well let Lucasfilm jump on the bandwagon.

Odd, i didn't realize it was Anaheim only and from what I'm seeing, it's because he wouldn't fit in with the storyline they're doing for Starcruiser. That's disappointing.

That opening shot. I've probably seen it a hundred times, due mostly to the fact that it would take attempt after attempt to download the trailer on our dial up modem, and that first shot was often all I ever had the patience for in one "internet session." I think it was like, maybe a 4 MB file, and the first trailer I ever tried to download, via QuickTime (and maybe the first trailer ever available online period?). But it would take HOURS just to get halfway through downloading it, only to inevitably get kicked off the internet for any number of technical reasons, or because one of my sisters needed our second phone line. I think it was literally weeks before I finally managed to download the entire thing and save it to our computer.

I know what that outline is but I don't remember this shot...at all. Does the actual movie have a dark, shadowy shot of Jar Jar people on Jar Jar horses like that?

Yep. Beginning of the third act. Emerging from the forest, on their way to the droid battle. Could be any Gungan, though, not sure that it was Jar Jar specifically.

I watched that trailer easily 500 times before TPM came out. It's a fantastic trailer. Now I'm going to watch it right now. My brother, my dad and I went to see The Waterboy and they played it before the movie and after too andt he whole crowd stuck around after the credits to see it again.

Great use of the music, Obi-Wan swinging the saber, Mace Windu getting the first line of dialogue.

He can see things before they happen"

Anakin Skywalker meet Obi-Wan Kenobi

Way too young Yoda

Fear is the path to the Dark Side

The Maul reveal that Spilner hates

R2 and 3PO

those were the days

Honest question. How much harder would that moment have hit of Maul igniting the second lightsaber, if you knew nothing about it beforehand?

This is why I mostly avoid trailers.

Just think...we've gone from hyping a movie with a double blade reveal to trolling fans with Rey's red switchblade in SW trailers.

I think the Internet would have ruined it based on the shots of him wielding a really long handled lightsaber, and in the second trailer / music video, Nerds like me would have already known. The duel in the hangar remains the most enduring part of the prequels and it's not even close, but there are so many amazing moments in the duel that I think it was a great teaser for what was coming.

I mean I'm sure for people scouring the internet for spoilers, they would probably know. But I'm saying in an ideal world and where somehow even you managed to not spoil yourself on it...you have to admit that theater would've lost its mind.

Don't forget how much Star Wars is about merch. There's no way they would have withheld all those maul toys

True. Would've probably been impossible.

It's miraculous they managed to keep Grogu a surprise thanks to sacrificing a whole winter's worth of holiday Grogu merch.

Well sure but for that matter they shouldn't have shown maul at all.
