The newer trilogy has had its flaws but I’ve loved it for the most part. It’s impossible to be worse than AOTC or TPM anyway

Seems like they're just reacting to negative opinions all the time. Which means they never had any idea where they were going when they wrote ep VII. Surely if you're envisioning a trilogy from the start you actually have the bare bones for the entire thing. Apparently not. Just make it up as you go along dependent on people's complaints.

It's working so well for the Alien franchise too.

They've pretty much confirmed this. The idea was to just give each movie to a different filmmaker and just kind of let them do what they wanted while still being more or less connected, they didn't really have any overarching ideas. Very strange decision from them, but whatever.

By that laugh at the end of the teaser we all can agree with Quan: Snoke was the strongest force user that ever lived

Rumors are that Rey’s past will be retconned to fix her lineage.

Is she truly a Skywalker now?

On the one hand that sounds really shity and I hate it, on the other hand I feel like it's a lot more likely that she'll end up being a Skywalker then the title being about Ben.

Sheev gonna be a force ghost

Is that a piece of the Death Star at the end? And Palpatine’s laugh?

Are getting a Palpy clone like from the EU books?

Nah...

I would say hes in hologram form from a holocron recording or something, but that would be a little too deceptive the way theyve teased it.

What was the TIE fighters plan in that trailer?

Was it trying to hyperspace ram her?

Underwhelming. I can't believe my former favorite movie franchise has fallen this low. I want to go back in time and tell 15 year old me to just let it go and not expect much more so I wouldn't feel the disappointment I've felt these last few years.
my sentiments exactly. My love for star wars is hanging on by a thread. If this movie is another dumpster fire i will probably cut the cord for good.

What a disappointing trilogy we ended up with, and with such underwhelming Episode titles.

At least we had Rogue One.

Well at least there might be Palpatine going by the laugh.

Also how does Rey have a lightsaber? Didn't it blow up in TLJ?

Maybe the books she took had instructions on how to make one

should have been called "a new triggering"

Always a valid tactic.

I surprisingly ended up liking Solo the most out of what we got tbh, though it was poorly timed and thusly failed.

Ep 9... I dont know how to feel about yet still.

thats entirely possible, but you don't really have to retcon anything..

one of my many working theories as of right now is that Luke somehow took that memory away from Rey and Snoke suspected Rey is a Skywalker, but duped Ben into thinking otherwise..

Clone Sheev perhaps but I hope not...

well we never saw any jedi or sith make a lightsaber...

Well I have to admit it's a good trailer, but the title is stupid and I have no faith in JJ Abrams, plus it's clear they're just making it up as they go.

"member the death star?
member tie interceptors?
member lando?
member palpatine?
member kylo's mask?

star wars: ep iX: member the skywalkers?"

oh and rey does a cool flip. *sigh*

^ Yeah, pretty much.

But it was spliced together well. A very competent trailer.

But one can tell it doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be a competent 2-hour movie.
