I imagine the final scene is him marrying Rose on Yavin 4 in this exact setup

I hope JJ kills Finn and Rey. The internet reaction and arguments would be too delicious to ignore.
There has never been a unanimous opinion on Star Wars. What would indicate that he saved the trilogy? If its everyone agreeing that the movie is good that ain't happening.

There are ways of subverting expectations in storytelling that the lightsaber toss could have been a good example of, but then the film chooses to run with that and employ it as a device for the whole thing, in what feels like an attempt to take any thematic resolution or further buildup to a finale and replace it with: "oh you thought you'd get some payoff to that thi-well fuck you buddy! I'm going a different route. What route you may ask? Well fuck you for wanting some substantial answers to previously established plot points, tension and questions".
Good shit haha.
I just wish he was treated better as character in the last two movies :/ Atm he feels really sidelined.
Even if he isnt a jedi ,it wouldnt have been cool to explore the whole brainwashing and kidnapping thing he and the other storm troopers went thru. It just feels a bit like wasted potential for a plotpoint
If he manages that, this could end up being my favorite trilogy ever. That would be a dame feat.
It's so big that it fills at least half of the sky on every planet and moon in the galaxy. (the ones that weren't displaced by its construction)
Darth Vader was fused into a suit of armour that kept him alive...
Rey is supposed to have gone on a sweeping journey full of broad and decisive character change. She'd do well to have her attire reflect that.
I guess she just has a thing for pastel colors and flowy outfits.
Yeah, I don't get this complain.
In TFA she has two outfits, in TLJ she starts with the second TFA outfit and then gets a brand new one and in this she has another one. Four outfits in total.
Not really..it looks nearly identical to the last two movies. She has had a similar look throughout the two movies. The outfits only slightly differ.
Yeah we'll see. I was just mostly responding to the claim that Vader wearing the same getup is the same as the protagonist doing the same. I mean, yeah, Rey does get a new outfit in TLJ after all. I'm just bracing for the JJ regression to safety across the board.
We can laugh but makes you think what are the stakes for this film, what is the big thing the rebels need to take down?
I'm going to guess we see the First Order invading here there and everywhere but no super weapon, it's just a desperate all out war and the resistance need to cut the head off the snake, perhaps lure Kylo to Tatooine for a stand off with the history of his grand father, uncle on that planet and his insecurity still there in the end. I think that's what Rey will pull to get him away from the all out war fight so they can end it. Maybe Kylo sees the humble beginnings they both had and turns to the light side long enough to end the war.
They obviously have similarities between them all but they're all different enough that you really can't confuse them.
And the leaked costume art, which we can see in the image JJ posted.
God bless JJ. I'm confident this is going to be a great movie. I need to cleanse the bad taste off my mouth.

That's the Oscorp logo from the shitty Andrew Garfield movies.

I also think it makes sense for Rey's outfit to harken back to her original one. Rey's arc has been about embracing her identity as a "nobody", not throwing it away. I think her costuming reflects that journey.
I like her TLJ one a lot. The one on the far right. It's a great blend of darker colors while still being true to the original TFA one.They obviously have similarities between them all but they're all different enough that you really can't confuse them.

Exactly. There is no universal consensus about anything with the Star Wars fanbase. This movie won't change that.
Man can't we just look forward to a movie and post about our thoughts on how it all was AFTER it comes out? We literally have no clue about what happens in the movie apart from some tidbits of leaked info.
Hopefully JJ doesn't include another Leia Poppins-like moment. It was probably the first time going to a cinema where I could hear the audience be shocking silent with concern one moment, and erupt in laughter the next. Don't think that was the desired effect they were going for.
Yeah, as much as TFA was a rehash of ANH, Rey, Finn, and Poe, and their dynamics were what really made it an enjoyable film for me. I'm not really all that interested in this trilogy after TLJ, but I do hope JJ can find a way to salvage whatever story he originally wanted to tell.
What are you talking about, I mostly recanted to your view and conceded the point.
Y'all are crazy if you don't think they're coming back for Episodes 10-12 in another 5 years.
Yeah, regardless of what you think of the sequel trilogy the casting was never the problem( unless you're racist/sexist). They just got saddled with 30 years of baggage and torch passing.
Where will Rian Johnson trilogy and the D&D films fit tho?
Iger mentioned they are slowing things down after Solo.
" I'm just bracing for the JJ regression to safety across the board. " in the context of clothing that's what I call a reach.
At my showing, It was the one time where the heckler guy cracking jokes in the middle of a movie nailed it with a loud "I'm Mary Poppins ya'll" and everyone started cracking up.

I liked TLJ, but this was definitely one of the low points. Some people in my theater were also having a bout of nervous laughter.

My God. Been a huge fan since the originals and this is the only one I needed to see once.
I'd be surprised if we have a five year gap between IX and X.
hate to be the "nickpicks a single image" guy but can we please find some more non desert planets in the star wars galaxy to go to please?
