Star Wars Episode VIII - The Last Jedi *spoilers from Post 2857*

So a third act reunion of luke and Leia with any luck.

Be sorta devastated if we don't get that.

david75

This is really sad. I'd counted on a showdown between Leia and Kylo. Not getting it now.

Yeah 8 was totally in the can before her death. 9 has been rewritten from page one as a result of her death.

So Leia might have a significant role in this? How bizarre. Such a shame she passed away before being able to see it through. I hope her passing hasnt corruptwd Lucas original story too much either but I guess it will have done.

One thing i'm kinda looking forward to is the thought that all the Star Wars secrets may finally be revealed once IX is complete.

Yeah. Kathleen Kennedy said that 9 was going to be all about Leia just as 7 was about Han and 8 is about luke. but it can't happen now
The Skywalker story certainly seems to be coming to an end unless they come up with something really special for a follow up trilogy.

Rumour has it that it is a behind the scenes collection

But

I would love it if it was a new trailer.

It is about time and to be honest it wouldn't be the first time lucasfilm has actively engaged in misdirection and misinformation with their audience

david75

A new trailer was classified by the BBFC recently.

Personally I'm hoping for the Obi Wan announcement. It's now or never.

It's D23 this weekend in the U.S if memory serves correctly.

david75

Yeah that's what we were talking about.

Is that a goosebump on my arm?

david75

Hair blown back eyes meted out of their sockets. Pretty good idea what the gist of it's gonna be just from that and I love it saying forever this is gonna be a weird one and it looks like it and I love it. Hope I do when I see it.

Message being conveyed by LucasFilm in video:

- Rian is a genius (not like those two guys we just fired)
- This film will be fresh and new (unlike um, you know, the last two films)
- Bold and unexpected things will happen (it might go too far for many of you)
- But it’s about family (someone is going to die)
- Did we mention Rian is a genius?
- Oh and those dudes who thought Rey was a Mary Sue? Wait until they see her take on three guys with lightsabers and whup them all!

david75

Been saying forever this one is gonna be too different and upset the majority of fans. Bring it.

Still amazed people use words like Mary Sue. Just cos a character who is a woman is mad powerful (eh the point of the entire story) and yet blatant sexism gets thrown at her. It's appalling in this day and age. MYbe those people will just not go see it again is time.

And miss out on all that juicy complaining on the internet? No way

It'd be a good (if not necessarily original) direction to see her have a rematch with Kylo Ren and he just kicks her up and down the place.

Behind the scenes marketing reel, Episode IX: "It's great working with Colin. He is almost always on set - very punctual!"

david75

We thought Rey got a hard time.

The reaction to the new Doctor Who being a woman is even worse.

What is it about fat white middle aged and clearly forever alone/single men that they hate women so much?

Oh...wait
