This Star Wars Trailer Looks Hella Lame

[SrslySirius]

We've got Ewoks 2.0 and Rey transforming into MegaMarySue. It's so dense.

[hongkonger]

Not only this but Disney's cross-marketing by airing the trailer at halftime of MNF is nauseating. Poor Sean McDonough, it's bad enough he gets the JV schedule on MNF, he has to stand there next to a storm trooper and pretend this new movie isn't going to be shit.

what order is all this in again?

[michael]

That trailer rules! I'm hyped!

[herbertstemple]

Looks a lot better than The Force Awakens.

This crap will net a billion bucks easy.

[SrslySirius]

I was asking myself why Kylo Ren is even in this movie, and the only answer that made any sense is to reprise his role as a tomato can.

I'm not sure why Rey would need his help though. It has already been established that she is perfect and can master anything in 5 minutes, like force powers and operating spaceships. And now she can literally move mountains. Neat.

lol calm down nerd. We all know Star Wars isn't on the level of Project MacGuffin but it's still pretty decent

[herbertstemple]

On the bright side they brought Carrie Fisher back to life.

That's something.

[sonatine]

didnt they swear to everything sacred they would not under any circumstances work with cgi zombie carrie fisher?

[sonatine]

also i get that Hannah's boyfriend has to become some sort of Qin Shi Huang figure because honestly what other arcs are there but waiting for 'the big reveal' is still tedious.

[sonatine]

apologies; Hannah's ex boyfriend.

Probably the largest flaw from TFA. The struggle wasn't real for her.

I think they had some of her stuff filmed already.

I do think it's interesting she's front and center on the poster though.

[The_Lurker]

YADA YADA YADA.

I am still going to go see it in the biggest most expensive theater I can find, and gladly pony up $20 for a coke and popcorn. They had me at light saber.

They did, she apparently finished filming all of her parts before she died though.

Despite the bad acting, boring dialog and annoying new creatures (Disney hopes to sell millions of them, Porgs-penguins on crack)

Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Episode 8) will make over a Billion Dollars.

 

Luke is disenfranchised, Rey convinces him to come back.

People will assume Luke went to the Dark Side.

Rey doesn't go to the Dark Side; she is a reincarnation of the first force user.

It's suggested the Millennium Falcon may be destroyed.

Force ghosts of Yoda and Anakin said to be featured, and also said that they can be "killed"

Benicio Del Toro's character is said to be named Zenn, a known double crosser. He's famous on both sides, but Leia mentions how he helped the resistance and even the original rebellion and asks him to help one more time to take down Snoke.

Regarding Snoke, it's said he has switched bodies before, is well liked around the galaxy and very wealthy. Snoke's story isn't finished in this one as there is a cliffhanger following the Luke vs Snoke battle.

Luke meets Rey, he tells her how the force brought her to him. Her parents were scared of her abilities. She is told after a couple scenes that she was born out of necessity, that this balance will continue forever with the force, since the beginning all the way to his dad and now her. Luke trains her but tells her after Snoke is defeated, they will cease to fight and will not continue the Jedi order.

Luke and Rey have a meditation scene together where she literally walks through a beam of light and she can control everything around her. She can change shapes and warp everything around her. Luke tells her she will be even more powerful than Yoda, and she says who? (this got some chuckles).

Rey also battles a creature that Luke claims is filled with evil intent and has been threatening the porgs, creatures more in tune with the force than even himself (think penguins on crack). She defeats this creature only to see it become a ghost of Anakin. Basically, Luke has tried to push her emotionally in every direction on the island in order to wake her full potential quickly.

Luke wants Snoke gone now. It’s made clear that Luke is not happy with what Snoke did to Ben/Kylo Ren and will do anything to make Rey become stronger quickly to destroy him. We get a flashback with Anakin at Luke’s school and everything is destroyed. Luke sees young Ben/Kylo Ren and says “I don’t want to kill you…but your life is in my hands now”. We learn later Luke knew someone else would come along to balance things out with Ben/Kylo so he left to get answers as to why the Jedi always fail. Luke used the force to shut R2 down until this person was found. I’m cutting out a ton of details but basically you find out the force is literally connected to everything and even something like a droid can be aligned to it if it is willed. Rey confronts Luke about his feelings towards the Jedi, his abandonment of his friends and everything that’s happened, and they don’t come to an agreement. He speaks with Yoda, she meditates.

Yoda admits Rey is right, that the Jedi of old were hopeful but arrogant and a the dark side of the force can’t be the only future (something like that).

Kylo Ren spends the majority of the film with Snoke. Kylo is more unstable and leaves to trace Vader’s life in hopes that he will meet his spirit. From the way Snoke acts, he doesn’t seem to care much. Also, force ghosts can be destroyed. They’re adding new powers into this film the same way J.J./Kasdan added new abilities in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Rian Johnson did write the film he wanted but there was definitely things they wanted included in this film for future media.

After Finn wakes up, the entire ship they’re on is destroyed. Leia asks him to go find Snoke’s weakness, she’s been told someone has information on how to destroy him, and they’ve arrived at the meeting point (a new planet). No one likes Leia on this planet. Rose leaves with Finn because it’s the last escape pod and her sister trusts Finn. Poe leaves after the ship is destroyed as well with Leia and some remaining resistance. The FO take prisoners. They spend most of the film on the run and meet up with Holdo who immediately butts heads with what they should do next. She wants to have an alliance with the FO, Leia thinks thats a bad idea and in the meantime, sends Poe to rescue the remaining resistance supporters.

Finn goes to Snoke’s home planet and finds a crypt. Think Dracula. Very expensive looking place and a tomb that’s opened. Basically, we learn Snoke has switched bodies and is actually well liked by a lot of races. No one alive has seen his original body. He’s with Rose and Zenn. All of this takes place after they escaped the “affluent planet” and found the kidnapped resistance members who after these past few years have decided to join the FO. Finn appeals to some of them but not all.

Its a Disney movie. They need some white male to be the bafoonish evil bad guy to fight the heroic women and minorities. He is good enough for that I guess.

[michael]

Obv rey gonna turn heel, and Kylo gonna turn face








What if they said F everyone's expectations though, and just had Rey turn heel and Luke pwns both of them in the final movie
