Hmm. Kylo Ren at Luke's island...?

Adam Driver and Mark Hamill at the same filming location? Hmmm........

EDIT: I swear I didn't see the post above while typing this.

would love to see a Kylo v. Luke battle

reddit has some good speculation on what is happening...

Daisy Ridley - SI's Extra Mustard Lovely Lady of the Day

You're welcome.

Wonder how big of a battle it will be. We already lost Han in TFA. I can't imagine that we will lose Luke in VIII, so I'm thinking everyone is going to walk away from this and it ends in a stalemate of sorts.

I'm thinking somebody's gotta lose a hand. We missed that this last go around.

---

Could also be a vision, a la Luke and Vader in the Force Cave on Dagobah.

1. Luke will not die.

2. They will talk, similar to Darth and obi one.

3. Luke will end up cutting off Kylo's hand.

4. Kylo gets away even more full of rage. Possibly helped by some larger happening/ battle around them.

Possibly, but I think we can all agree that they are going to try and redeem Kylo.

And, if Rey is a Skywalker, losing a limb is a family tradition.

And while Ridley and Driver, who play Rey and Kylo Ren, attempted to make their way through the airport unnoticed, Hamill smiled for the cameras and gave a huge animated wave for the lens as he was welcomed to the city.

I hope that I am enjoying life as much as Mark seems to when I reach his age.

That Radiohead song and JB homage to Empire was awesome!

How was that song rejected!?

Mark is nerd royalty and he loves it. And we love that he loves it.

John Williams on the possibility of scoring Episode VIII:

Trailer for Elstree 1976 (documentary about some of the lesser known/unknown faces of Star Wars (now on iTunes apparently):

Also, Lucasfilm related, the trailer for the documentary about the making of the greatest fan film ever. If I remember correctly, this fan film is discussed in The People vs George Lucas:

I'll be in Dublin this afternoon and be touring Ireland for the next week. So Luke, Rey, and the Falcon are already there? Excellent!

(ETA)
Yep, realized this was a shameless brag post about 10 seconds after I hit submit. Kind of feel bad about it. Going back to entertainment board lurker.

In Ireland? Yeah I'd probably want to brag too.

The fact that Williams is undecided is heartbreaking.

Come on Johnny, we need you.

Well wasn't the word until recently that he was stepping down after VII? So this is a step up

Not that I'd heard.

He's getting pretty fricken old. He may just not have it in him.

I gotta be honest, save for Rey's theme, I was super underwhelmed with William's score for TFA. At this point, with Williams as old as he is, if his heart's not in it I would welcome someone like Michael Giacchino taking the reins sooner rather than later.

There are probably two good pieces from the score. Rey's theme and Jedi Steps. The rest of the score was neither good nor bad, but not as recognizable as his previous efforts IMO.

Rey's theme was pretty much an arrangement of Harry Potter.

It's definitely more star wars ish, but had a innocent lilt to it befitting a naive girl taking her first steps.

Rey is Han and Leia's daughter!

Han does not know because he left, looking for Ren before her birth.

Ren goes dark, creates Knights of Ren, goes back to Jedi Academy where we see Rey and Ren in vision.

This makes Ren about 16 years older.

The dates/times fit.

Please, please, please DO NOT have a, "Rey, I'm your brother," line in VIII

Leis will die causing Rey and Luke to come out of hiding.

Very unlikely. About 5 years before force awakens Kyle Ren hadn't turned

None of this is supported by anything in the movie, really.

I wasn't giving facts. Giving opinion.

Kylo is 10ish years older than Rey

Han wasn't estranged from Leia for 20 years and Leia never would have concealed his child from him and then dropped her on some random planet with Plutt.

The vision Rey has of the Knights of Ren isn't at the Academy.

Kylo is not 16 years older than Rey.

Leia and the Resistance now know where Luke is so there's no need to lure him out of hiding in that way.

Folks, Bloodline is really good. I'm more than halfway through and am really enjoying it. Even if you don't usually get into the new expanded canon, you should read it.

Then how long? You can't answer this with facts. Give your opinion. I could have sworn that I read somewhere that it was stated that he had been gone for ~17 years.

Where then?

I was talking about being hidden from First Order.



If you are going to say everything that I have an opinion about is wrong then at least provide your own views to prove them wrong. They are only opinions and can change if provided good information. Thus far, you have just said, "No, No, No, No," with no reasoning. I am a pretty level-headed guy. If you think my opinion is off then at least explain why.

I haven't read Bloodline yet, but I'm sure it goes into this in the book.

We don't know yet, but we do have confirmation from Pablo Hidalgo that it doesn't take place at the Academy.

About 10 years, like I said a few posts ago. This is straight from Wookiepedia, which I totally trust. We have been told that Rey is 19 and Kylo is 29-30.

That's certainly a possibility.

You can answer with facts. Bloodline is 6 years before TFA, and Han and Leia are still together.
