Apparently some of the ships in the trailer are from the era of the original trilogy or something nerdy like that. It blows my mind how some people can instantly identify all of the vehicles in these movies. I still get AT AT and AT ST mixed up.

So these look like Imperial Star Destroyers rather than First Order. Definitely not Resurgent class. That's interesting. Specifically the older Imperial 1 Class destroyers from the R1/ANH era, I'd say. Weeiiiiird.
That plus the "Sith" Troopers (even though the sith are supposedly dead and Snoke/Ren were not sith), makes me think a certain Senate has kept his own forces hidden away for a long while. Perhaps while puppeteering the First Order/Snoke from afar.
But they're not without modifications. On the above picture you can barely perceive a red outline following the edge. The last Star Destroyer to have a sort of red paint job was the prequel era Venator class, though this is on a seemingly OT era destroyer.
More importantly, on the bottom they seem to have new installations. Large indents toward the front with what I'd guess are big ol' lasers. It's probably one of those that's causing the large red beam seen in the trailer.
The folding double bladed saber is neat. I'm guessing this is a fakeout. A vision or something. I'm not buying it. Harder to get a good look at in motion but easier in this still.
I'm a fan of folding double blades, like the temple guards. Moreso than standard double blades. So I'm hoping it does make a legitimate appearance in a fight.
In the forest it looks like Rey is training. See the little training remote dodging her blade?
I wonder if this is self motivated or if she's being guided by someone.
Also, right before I captured that shot I happened to pause at a funny frame.

This is going to be such good fodder for Auralnauts.

Creepio is canon. Is it any coincidence that this foreboding shot of Creepio is what immediately follows "COMES TO AN END"?

This looks like a bad deepfake. That has to be a half-assed CGI cloak to hide some fuckery going on with the top of her head, because I can't believe this is an actual shot in the movie.
Could be part of the Resistance fleet.
Since you know, they have none. Quick and easy way if they had a known stash somewhere.
Reading through this thread the negativity is immense. It's just gotten nauseating following online fandom of these movies over the past few years. Jesus ppl it's just a trailer; try to get excited about something.
I was hoping for this scene with Rey when people were describing this:
I think it would have worked much better if the second lightsaber blade wasn't ignited before the fold as, really, having it fling open already ignited makes it look really dumb. It's also as a high chance of accidents and, frankly, I think Rey should be having a meeting with the galaxy's local Health and Safety Standards authority.
- The Millenium Falcon has the original trilogy's radar dish despite it being destroyed in TFA
- Leia is holding the medal from ANH
- Rey has Luke's lightsaber despite it being destroyed in TLJ
- The Palpatine laugh
Those are all things in the trailer itself, so the speculation is based in objective evidence from actual marketing material. Who knows whether it's right, but to argue that there is literally no evidence that could allow someone to speculate like that is demonstrably wrong. It's like saying the shot of Rey holding a red lightsaber isn't evidence that could be used to speculate on a potential dark-side turn for her character; you're using your own conclusions to shut other people making innocent speculation up.
Also why do none of you ever just take the L and realise that RLM didn't actually create the time travel theory? They added to it, but dismissing it based on "RLM MADE IT!" is an incredibly lazy dismissal and at this point you must be intentionally ignoring that fact.
Oh, and I'd rather not be called crazy in a thread like this so please don't do that.
so old things appear in the new movie and you jump directly to TIME TRAVEL?!
No, old things appearing isn't the evidence, it's that those old things are ones that have been shown to either be lost or destroyed (execpt the medal which is definitely flimsy). Intentionally reducing it down like that is being intentionally disingenuous.
But, as I said, this is speculation. What is so harmful about speculation that you feel the need to call people "crazy" for doing it?
Just so you know RLM is not even close to being the first ones to report about time travel in this movie. There is "some" credence to the theory. I know I know, TIME TRAVEL IN STAR WARS IS SUPER DUPER WACKY!!!!!!!111 But let's just wait until the movie comes out before dismissing it
I've pointed this out multiple times and it's been ignored at every instance.
They're not even close to the same. Anakin had a loving mommy. Not that it matters, because these new movies entirely ignore character backgrounds unless they can conveniently move the plot forward.
Who stashed the old Star Destroyers away?
Palpatine? Leia? Lando?!? The Trade Federation.....lol?
Palpatine? Leia? Lando?!? The Trade Federation.....lol?
This is dumb but it would look better if both blades weren't ignited at the same time. I always thought it would be cool if she had two lightsabers that could connect together. Guess Ahsoka will forever stay coolest Jedi.
Everything looks great except for that final shot.
Real, or fake out, that looks incredibly dumb.

John Williams better be making some badass battle song for that final Rey vs Kylo battle. The scores have been so boring.
Her face looks burned/scarred. Probably to make it easier for the audience to tell who is who when she fights real Rey.
Rey and Ney where twin sisters, but they were so strong in the force they were needed to be separated before they grow out of control, thats why they left Rey on Tatooine, i mean Jakku
That's my assumption at this point. A secret stash that's been in hiding for decades. Or a secret stash that's been built during those decades.
I grow increasingly worried about the potential for time travel shenanigans but until proven otherwise I'm assuming no time travel.
on your hips
i mean, we know from battlefront 2 that the emperor had backup plans

TFA Maz speaking with Rey after she has the forcr vision.
Which episode is this?
I was hoping for this scene with Rey when people were describing this:
Yes, if it wasn't lit already it would be fine looking. It's just a modern design of mauls allowing you to store it easier
Tbh a stash sounds more plausible than time travel. Like the Empire were probably like "lol" to the New Republic's demilitarization demands and just hid them somewhere.
My bet on why it's only that class of Star Destroyer is that because ILM already built a model for them for Rogue One.So these look like Imperial Star Destroyers rather than First Order. Definitely not Resurgent class. That's interesting. Specifically the older Imperial 1 Class destroyers from the R1/ANH era, I'd say. Weeiiiiird.

Possibly story reason... idk maybe when Palpatine had them commissioned originally he had them designed to be compatible with a potential super laser installation that isn't present on the Class II SDs. So all of the Class IIs were used in the construction of the Resurgent class SD while the Class Is were used for development of that super laser battery and stashed away for Palpatine's use when he returned.
I wonder if the Eclipse will show up?
So she's a sith??? Lol Star Wars is fucked
Why would you even show that? Way to ruin a hyper moment in the movie.

Hopefully there's a whole fleet of Executors, a powerful message that Vader was nothing more than a pawn to Palpatine and he can have as many as he wants.
