Dang. I just noticed the "classic" at-ats with the new walkers and how small they are.

I think it is probably Ren and he is referencing training him.

He's talking about either Kilo the Bandito or Snoke. Luke says something like i"t didn't scare me enough then, it does now," with a flashback to the destruction of his academy (with Luke's cyber hand reaching up through the rubble). Clearly talking about a present evil.

So if Crait is basically the new Resistance base, the below is almost assuredly the Resistance's escape from D'Qar early in the film as The First Order / Kylo attacks...

Guess it's time to check out of the Star Wars threads until mid December. People can't help but talk about stuff they know.

I made a post around page 7-9 that joked about the entire plot following Empire Strikes Back.

Reason being TFA follows ANH nearly verbatim.

That said I would bet good money on an early space battle with a landing of imperial walkers in the first 30 minutes of the movie with our main characters minus Ray on the run.

Why have Chewy be CGI? We've had 40 years of practical effects Chewy, and it works just fine. And isn't makeup/costume cheaper?

Are we all sure it's CGI? I've paused it and it looks pretty real. If anything maybe they did some CGI on the eyes but the rest is real.

Biggest take away from the trailer:
Is Ray the Star Wars version of Heisenberg...and starting to "break bad"?

I think its the eyes as well. They still have Joonas Suotamo listed and he is who has been playing the actual walking carpet during filming. Mayhew is still doing the some of the less intensive parts since he doesn't get around well anymore.

it does have a lot to do with TFA and the way it ended (which mirror ANH). There's only so many ways the story can go. At it's most basic, this middle movie must show adversity for our heroes and cast their survival in doubt so it may follow ESB in it's most basic format. But i'm hopeful the similarities end there and we get through those 'similarities' within the first quarter of the movie.

If they wanted to rival the "I am your father" moment, what if, and hear me out, what if Luke killed Rey?

If we're going down this route...Luke told Kylo to destroy the new academy to get him close to Snoke. Luke and Kylo are playing the long con to get first order and resistance to weaken each other before taking over the galaxy together. Kylo is going to do what he said in TFA and finish what Vader started...with Luke's help.

Rey is a convenient distraction

unfounded theory time.

Rey and her raw force abilities caused the destruction of Luke's Jedi Academy. Burying him in rubble.
A couple of the 'good' guys were going to kill Rey because she was too strong, but Kylo intervenes:

and saves her.

I started to comment on other thread but then moved here. I like the theory. There is enough in TFA the movie to support that Kylo knows exactly who she is, and I realize it is even more pronounced in the novelization.

Ummm.... yeah... that makes a whole lota sense and that isn't being sarcastic. Crap, yeah, considering the flashbacks we've seen from Rey and the flashbacks they've shown in the trailer. Wow, I think perhaps I've seen too much!!!!

Luke has only sensed this kinda of power before? It was fine before but this scares him? Hmmm I wonder who he could be talking about

My guess is that he's talking about himself.

Yes it is! And that sync-up between the music and Rey's lightsaber sound is fantastic.

Going to guess Lucasfilm brass contacted Rian and asked him to stop talking about avoiding the trailer, and he responded like so.

I skimmed the discussion from last night and didn't see anything about this, so thoughts on the short snippet of Snoke we got? I thought the effects looked really good.
