The following is an excerpt from this Saturday's Los Angeles Times.

Highlights of the trailer for the "Star Wars" prequel, Episode 1: "The Phantom
Menace."  When played at theaters, the trailer will last a little more than 2
minutes and contain about 70 shots.

Shot 1:  Swamp
Somebody slowly emerges from the mist.  It's not clear who it is, but it's not
human.  Appears to be someone riding on something.

Shot 2:  Title Card:  EVERY GENERATION HAS A LEGEND

Shot 3:  Slowly panning across the desert to a small parked ship.

Shot 4:  Title Card:  EVERY JOURNEY HAS A FIRST STEP

Shot 5:  Majestic shot of a city with a palace in the background.

Shot 6:  Interior of palace.

Shot 7:  EVERY SAGA HAS A BEGINNING

Shot 8 through 68:
We get glimpses of the prequel's new central characters like Jar Jar, Anakin
and Shmi Skywalker, Qui-Gon Jim, Mace Windu, Queen Padem--and, of course,
holdover characters from the original trilogy like Yoda, R2-D2, C-3PO.  And
most importantly, Obi Wan Kenobi as a child with his lightsaber.  At one point
Yoda says, "Fear is the path to the dark side."

Shot 69:
Something crashing into a huge space structure resulting in an enormous
explosion.

Shot 70:  Main Title: "Star Wars"
