The Force Awakens spoiler/speculation discussion thread

Kylo Ren looks like freakin' Revan in the first pic.

that looks fan made. at least i hope it is.

I've seen it before. Not sure if that's fan made.

the spoilers seem plausible but i think that mask looks a wee bit goofy...at least in that rendering.

It's a design, doesn't mean anything, doesn't mean it gets used.

Rumours about content of next trailer:

(credit (though very secondary credit): http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/star-wars/11455827/Star-Wars-The-Force-Awakens-trailer-details-leaked.html)

Spoiler:
• The trailer opens with a shot of the same desert planet seen in the first trailer, and a a destroyed AT-AT on its side. A voice over (believed to be Lupita Nyong’o) intones: “I shall show you the story…”

• We then cut to a forest location, and a a large, castle-like structure appears. The voiceover continues: “... of who you seek…”

• We cut to a a shot of a large city in a a tropical location. The voiceover continues: “... the one who taught me…”

• Cut to an image of a cloaked figure (whom both Latino Review and Slash film believe may be Mark Hamill's Luke Skywalker), standing at the top of a flight of stone steps, on a hill, with a mountain in the background. The voiceover continues: “...I know why the weapon came to you...”

• Cut to a cave, containing John Boyega's Finn, Daisy Ridley's Rey, and "a small blue alien with a CG face". Finn has a green-bladed lightsaber, while Rey looks on, a worried expression on her face.•

• A succession of quick shots, depicting: Harrison Ford's Han Solo; a black TIE Fighter attacking the forest location pictured earlier on; Sith Lord Kylo Ren, with his cross-guard lightsaber; people running in the streets of the tropical city depicted earlier in the trailer, R2-D2 and C-3PO and Carrie Fisher's Leia

• A new voiceover (possibly Andy Serkis) says: “Don’t get too sentimental”. We see a shot of Han looking at Leia, then walking away from her, towards the Millennium Falcon. Chewbacca is by his side.

• Cut to a shot of the forest seen in the very first trailer. We see Finn, holding his lightsabre, apparently protecting Rey, as Han says “You can do this kid, I believe in you.”

• The trailer ends with a close-up of a head, concealed in a hood. The person looks up: it's Luke.

The Revan picture is fanmade. Thanks for the updates, Ush.

Yeah, Ush. Sounds good. When is it due?

Most likely guess is with Age of Ultron for the US release.

Excited to see/hear

Spoiler:
Lupita Nyong'o and Carrie Fisher. They're really awesome actresses and are just awesome people in general.

Yup.

I'm hoping we get an exclusive look at Star Wars Celebration this year. Then released online after that weekend.

how about you get full big screen experience and the rest of us get 1080p streaming. i agree that you're entitled to a first experience for buying your ticket, but lets not be sadistic about it.

People will record the trailer at Celebration anyways.

They could always save it for the last day (a Sunday) at night, then Monday morning it could be online.

It'll be online. I'm sure. Would be silly if people started paying to see a movie and want exclusivity on a 'commercial' for another movie.

I'm assuming

Spoiler:
the tomb is Vader's, which is why Kylo needs Anakin's lightsaber to unlock it? And also why Luke would be guarding that tomb of all Sith remnants?

Errr.... didn't you see the end of ROTJ? The funeral pyre... And didn't you see what happened to Vaders hand and lightsaber?

Sounds very fuzzy.

But there they are, both of them in the trailer... hmmm...

i guess i cant hotlink it
