I assume the title is THE THING we have to be angry about because we're on the internet?

Sheev on Endor haunting the Death Star, I can't deny that's quite cool even though it's nostalgia again. I guess it's fallen on the side with no ewoks :p what Mcguffin will JJ use to get the team there I wonder.
Force ghost like Darth bane in clone wars/ obi wan in the OT( heck that ending scene ar end of return of the jedi) and other examples work. If its legitimate sheev... I'd be curious as to how too.
If they rename jedi 'skywalkers' wouldn't the title need the plural in it too? Or if it was just about 'a' skywalker, wouldn't it need to be called 'Rise of the Skywalker?
Just saying. The Last Jedi made sense as meaning 'the last of the jedi' or as 'the very last individual jedi'. This only makes sense if Skywalker is a character's name.
Incoming Star Wars Return of the Jedi Superspecial Edition with added CGI helicopter flying Sheev away
Doesn't make Ben a Skywalker though. It makes him related to the Skywalkers, yes, but not a Skywalker.
Also, it's still weird to call it 'Rise of Skywalker' when the only Skywalker is the villain who would presumably do the complete opposite of rising this film.
This is Rey's story.. she's closing out the Skywalker saga, as it should be. I knew JJ would refocus. Footage looked great, title is.. something. We'll see how it feels down the road. I'm hyped.
Yo is this for real?
BossAttack I gotta know your thoughts on Ian fucking McDiarmid back as Palpatine.JB1981
Despite my concerns, those cheap fucks got me hyped. All it takes is to play some OT music and I'll always get hyped. You could play a video of someone taking a dump with that music and I'd start getting emotional.
"The Rise of Skywalker"
So that means Luke is coming back or Rey is a Skywalker???
That would be such a bs thing to do to reveal the final scene in a teaser trailer, 8 months before the movie comes out...
If Sheev is in this then I hope he brings that prequels levels of ham because we need more memes
I cannot think of something more anathema to JJ Abrams' being as a filmmaker than showing *the ending* as the very first bit of footage lolTheory that bit of Rey jumping the Tie fighter is the last scene of the movie and is friendly play between Kylo & Rey (cousins) who have brought balance to the force, kind of like a training thing.
Overseas doesn't care nearly as much about Star Wars nostalgia as the US. Solo bombed and China, the second most important market in the world, thinks these movie are shallow nostalgia grabs and don't watch them. It won't die, but just doing the same thing over and over again to the exact same group of people surely won't help it.Yeah I am sure that having one character reprise his role in 1 film will kill an entire billion dollar franchise.
Totally.
Looked solid. The name...not so great, but we'll see how it works with the story. J.J. is cleaning up Rian's mess. He should have just done all 3 movies.
I dislike JJ's movies and his take on Star Wars. Having that said, seeing people get salty at the TLJ retcon:
Hamill securing his paycheck
People generally take their father's last name/dynasty.So Luke and Leia aren't Skywalkers either because Padmé isn't a Skywalker.
This was awful
It's shitting on what TLJ did
"Kill the past if you have too"
I'm off this train
What I want to know is was this what TPM got back when the title was announced? I wasn't on the internet in 1998 or whenever they revealed that.
Implying Sheev didn't just use the momentum of the Death Star II core explosion to fly through space superman style until he hit his vacation home and took it easy for the next 40 years.
It must be. It was pretty bad.Terrible title, but even worse teaser. I think this is the worst promo video since Disney bought Lucas.
My guess: Rey throws out the Jedi name and its adherence to the light side in favor of starting with a new order using the name "Skywalkers" as a homage, going with a dual dark/light approach a la a WoW Balance Druid (hinted at by the black/white Jedi symbol in E8.)
This thread is so incredibly negative that based off of less than 2 minutes of footage people have written off an entire movie.
Worse yet I see so much speculation and theorizing as if people know exactly what will happen and are basing their opinions of this movie off of that.
Seriously the worst.
This is JJ Abrams, I'm willing to put money on it that Palpatine is actually literally back.
Star wars: the rise of fanboy wankery.
Rey has a 2 tone skin 😂
Crying for Leia who she has been on screen together for less than 10 minutes 🤣
Lando looks geriatric 😑
Back to Sand 🙄
Palpatine? 🤮🤮🤮
I'm disgusted 🤬
You have my saberWhy is this so damn contentious.
I loved TFA, loved TLJ, and I think this looks great.
Am I some sort of rare unicorn for just liking Star Wars and not screaming when my personal theories aren't confirmed?

Most of us learnt it from interviews and articles. I thought it was about the rise of jedis than A jedi at first as well.
Kylo Ren is the most interesting character in the new saga and should be the big baddie. We dont need a coldwar despot to be the baddie. A millennial incel school shooter is much scarier in 2019.
