    Can't believe I am excited about a damn poster being released. They really know how to drip feed us don't they. Hope this poster drops today as rumoured.

    Please god let it be a Drew Struzan. I am expecting to see a montage type drawing of the main characters much like all the others. I think it'll sit nicely among the OT posters.

    What are you guys wanting to see?

    I really want to see a shadowy cloaked figure of Luke hidden in the background somewhere.

    I believe it'll be Drew Struzan. Considering the one at D23 was just a special poster for that event, I'm sure they also had him make another epic poster as the final one. I can't wait!

    Probably we are going to see something similar to the PT posters. I wish the artist was other guy, but lets wait maybe Struzan will do something diferent this time.

    Which other guy are you referring to?
    Tom Jung? Tim Hildebrant? Tom Chantrell? Roger Kastel? Kazuhiko Sano?

    There's been a lot of poster artists for Star Wars.

    Sadly, most of them are all dead. That kind of theatrical poster is becoming a lost art form, as more and more studios settle for cheap, uninspired photoshop jobs.

    They had to get Struzan to come out of retirement for TFA.
    That's how bad things are.

    UK Cinema claiming something TFA related will be announced 5pm UK time.



    I'd say this is when the flood of info kicks off (poster/trailer time/ticket times etc)

    Translates to roughly 9am Pacific, 12pm Eastern.
    Sounds like a decent time... not too early.

    Unless you're in the glorious DST-free state of Queensland as I am... then it's only 2 am.

    A well known UK cinema has announced that TFA "news" is coming out at 5pm UK time, rumours from yesterday/today have claimed the poster is coming out first.

    As of right now its just an educated guess ;)
