Beloved iconic character from the original trilogy to return in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker [see staff post]

[Deleted member 5666]

Something that has been long speculated since the first teaser showing the Death Star II ruins has seemingly been confirmed....Ewoks are back. And Warick Davis is back as Wicket in particular.

This brief shot in a new (and wonderful!) featurette video gave it away. See video below:

It's in an officially released video from Lucasfilm as part of promotion for the film. It isn't a spoiler.

Yes, it is part of the mainstream marketing. It's on the Star Wars Youtube channel and their official Twitter account.

That is as mainstream marketing as it gets. Officially released marketing material isn't a spoiler.

It's not in a trailer or a tv spot.

Seriously, WTF?! I'm already having to dodge so many TV spot thread and now this.

An officially released video promoting the film that they put on all their official social media accounts is mainstream marketing. That is just a fact.

Ewoks coming back to ruin the 3rd film once again

It is. Up until this thread I had zero clue of Ewoks being in the movie and I wasn't planning on watching that video until after I watch the movie first. I watch all the trailers/ tv spots, no Ewoks in those.

 

[0VERBYTE]

Holla at me when this man picks back up Cherlindrea's wand.

 

[vatstep]

The final film of the saga will end with Yub Nub, as it should

 

[Tagg]

I mean it's a complete waste of Warwick's talent... but ok.

 

[Garlic]

I love that this thread has already been derailed by a philosophical debate on what constitutes a spoiler

Warwick is cool, glad to see him return to the role

 

[Sandstar]

Officially released material isn't a spoiler.

So comment on it on their social media accounts or in the multiple ROTS threads like the spoiler thread. This is a dumb thread that was made only to spoil a small but cool part of the movie.

 

[BackLogJoe]

OP could have been less of an asshole and titled the thread "Making of Featurette discloses X returning".

 

[bdwnfn99]

WTF thanks for the spoiler in the thread title

 

[Vincent Alexander]

Oh....I guess Ewoks are back. So much for avoiding info on the movie since the first trailer.

 

[Extra Sauce]

would have been an awesome surprise

but I guess since Disney marketing people are being assholes, resetera has to be assholes as well

No, no. Edgelords are entitled to shove the information in your face.

 

[Deleted member 1248]

I love this thread already.

YUB NUB IS BAAAAAAAAAAAAACK

Yes it is. Regardless of where it's shown, a spoiler can mean anything to anyone.

 

[Van Bur3n]

Oh no, you took the magical moment when space teddy bear returns away from me.

 

[Khanimus]

Spoilers: Palpatine has possessed the body of Wickit all these years, so the final battle is against a sinister teddy bear

 

[adj_noun]

Aww that would have been a cool surprise. Oh well.

Next Willow 2 plz.

Yes, OP is clearly the Edgelord Asshole here...

Not the person who is making crazy accusations about them.

 

[Yukari]

It's an official video from Lucasfilm. So it's not Spoiler.

 

[Ramala]

I don't *watch* the official videos till after I've seen the movie. Now why might that be?

Wicket sure didn't need to be name-checked in the gd thread title.

 

[Seesaw15]

Lol. Is Palpy just gonna be feasting on Ewoks like weak ghost Voldemort ate unicorns in HP?

 

[JaseMath]

Well, this would've been a nice surprise, but no.

Spoilers in the thread title should be bannable.

 

[saenima]

I guess this was the last corpse they had left to reanimate before killing it off.

I give it 40 minutes before it's dead.

These sequels are literally 'member this?

Not that I give a shit about this specific spoiler but, I don't watch official stuff to avoid spoilers as a whole.

 

[The Last One]

Palpatine is back!

"Cool! Awesome!"


Wicket the Ework is back!

"FUCKING SPOILER THAT SHIT!"

Official marketing material for a film has never been considered a spoiler before as far as I have ever seen.

Do we hide the fact Palpatine is in the film in titles? No of course not.

 

[Freddy=Legend]

I'm actually glad to know about this. I don't think my skull could withstand the eye roll I would've done discovering stupid ass Ewoks are back during the movie.

 

[peppermints]

Palpatine is back!

"Cool! Awesome!"


Wicket the Ework is back!

"FUCKING SPOILER THAT SHIT!"

Click to shrink...

I don't recall ever seeing Palpatine being back in a thread title. So not quite the same.

 

[Seesaw15]

Lol. Spoiler cultural has gone too far. Get off the internet folks. Don't expect the world to tip toe around your definition of what is or isn't a spoiler. Sheesh.
