UPDATE! 14 Things You Probably Missed from The Force Awakens Celebration Panel/Teaser #2

Star DestroyerIt’s been 12 days since the second teaser for The Force Awakens was shown at Celebration Anaheim by director J.J. Abrams, Kathleen Kennedy and several cast members from the movie. Since then the trailer has been watched by tens of millions and fans around the globe have been analyzing every single frame from the footage trying to uncover missed objects, details and even hidden clues that could hint at something. After the jump we will take a look at several things that you probably have missed from the new teaser, the live panel, and Celebration Anaheim itself.

 

 

POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD!

 

 

1. Let’s start with the R2-D2 – Luke scene from the trailer:

 

 

R2-D2

 

During the Celebration panel they briefly showed a picture taken during the filming of that particular scene:

 

 

Artoo on Jakku

 

This image actually tells us quite a lot. First of all this image shows you that the scene with Artoo and Luke takes place on Jakku. Probably this is in the beginning of the movie after Kylo Ren and the Stormtroopers torch the local village (as seen in the trailer).

 

Another thing that this image tells us is that this scene was not shot at Abu Dhabi, but on the Pinewood lot at the UK. You can tell that by cloudy sky, the green trees and buildings in the background and by the crew’s clothing. They are not dressed for an extremely hot weather.

 

I saw people commenting on the web that the clouded figure is not Luke. I think there are too many facts pointing to the opposite and they are hard to ignore. We know that Luke owns R2-D2, he has a cybernetic right hand, the scene was shot at Pinewood, where Mark Hamill was filming his scenes. Also, let’s not forget that Hamill’s voice over on the teaser says “I have it” on that particular scene.

 

Even our Cantina member Altgr0160 went on to compared the hand from the image above and Mark Hamill’s hand. Close enough, right? 🙂

 

 

Luke

 

I don’t think there is a conspiracy here and this is indeed Luke, and this is surely not his only scene in the movie.

 

 

2. Next is the scene with the alien creature handing a lightsaber to an unknown female:

 

 

Leia's Hands

 

Many people assumed that this female probably is Daisy Ridley. These assumptions were based mainly on some of the rumors that Ridley’s character is given the lightsaber by an alien character played by Lupita Nyong’o. But this is not the case. The character on that image is definitely Princess Leia. Apart from the matching voice over again, the hands also match with Carrie Fisher’s hands.

 

Also if you brighten the image you will see that this character is wearing a black vest and a grayish shirt – a complete match to Leia’s costume description by MSW:

 

 

Princess-Leia-Costume-Sketch

 

And have you noticed the ring? This is something that a Princess would wear, not a scavenger, right? 🙂

 

 

3. The First Order scene:

 

 

First Order

 

Apart from the regular Stormtroopers this brief scene also gave us a quick glimpse at a big variety of Stormtroopers:

 

 

Troopers

 

In clockwise order starting from top left: Flametrooper (with fuel tank on his back), Heavytrooper or Bombtrooper (with ammo clips or explosives on his vest), Snowtrooper, Navy trooper (foreground) and TIE Fighter pilots (background), Shieldtrooper (troopers holding shields in their hands), Higher rank Stormtroopers, and the Chrome Trooper Commander (you can even see the cape over the shoulder).

 

This scene looks more like a military parade, and what if the big structure in the back is actually the Super Weapon (The Catapult) that we’ve told you about before (HERE). It seems that it’s heavily guarded by several cannons and the location looks suitable for such device (surrounded by ice cliffs). What if there is actually something behind that red flag with the First Order symbol?

 

 

4. Check out the biohazard guy behind Daisy. Very cool looking character indeed:

 

 

biohazard

 

5. And the Gonk droid behind Poe’s black X-Wing:

 

 

Gonk

 

What is Star Wars without its power generators with legs! 🙂

 

 

6. Finn getting the jacket he later wears. Did he steal it?

 

 

Finn

 

7. Rey and Finn running from a TIE Fighter attack:

 

 

Run

 

During the live panel just for a few seconds they showed another image with both actors running towards…

 

 

Running

 

…yes, they are running towards the Millennium Falcon bridge door! Recognize those legs?

 

 

8. During The Force Awakens costume exhibit at Celebration Anaheim they showed a concept art with Finns costume. Interestingly his jacket has a lightsaber in it – specifically, the one used by both Anakin and Luke!

 

 

Finn's jacket

 

9. On the other hand the Rey’s concept art shows Rey holding a DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, Han Solo’s favourite weapon. Could this be a hint?

 

 

Rey

 

 

10. The exhibit also showed us where exactly the BB unit stays in the X-Wing:

 

 

BB-8

 

11. John Boyega and Daisy Ridley walked among the fans at Celebration disguised as Bossk and a Clone Trooper:

 

 

Finn and Rey

 

 

12. The shipwreck in the title image is a Super Star Destroyer, not like the regular one at the beginning of the teaser.

 

 

Super Star Destroyer

 

A regular Star Destroyer has 3 main engine thrust nozzles in the back. A Super Star Destroyer has …. well, more.

 

 

13. And finally something worth mentioning about the first teaser. Many fans noticed that in one of the shots there are all kinds of junk visible on Rey’s bumping car (that’s how they call it). In the next shot they were gone.

 

 

Rey

 

It was explained at Celebration that they actually used a flipped shot in the trailer. That’s why all the stuff was gone. The real shot should have looked like this:

 

 

Star-Wars-the-Force-Awakens-07

 

The flipped version fits better with the teaser edit and they probably didn’t want us to see that BB-8 is actually travelling in the net on the side of the vehicle (like the junk on the image below).

 

 

Bumper car

 

Well there you have it. I’m sure that many of you noticed these things already. Special thanks to several Cantina members for the heads up on some of those bits.

 

 

It didn’t occur to me before I wrote this article, but the second teaser did show us the Big Three (Han, Luke, and Leia). How cool is that? 🙂

 

UPDATE!

 

Thanks to a fan of ours from The Cantina (Altgr0160) directing us to an image from the panel that Rebelscum snagged, we can add another thing to our list.

 

14. A closer look at the Heavytrooper.

      Rey is revolted by the saber when shown, probably related to past trauma or something. So it goes to Finn until she is ready to accept it.

        Is it possible that since Jakku was settled by Imperial forces when their ships crashed there and Max Von Sydow’s character (ex-Imperial navy) supposedly knows Rey he may have tainted her view of the jedi over the years. Seeing a light saber would be enough for her to reject what it symbolises, this might be a bit of a stretch but…maybe?
        Any thoughts?

        Because your father Han Solo and mother Leia Organa did not marry.

        I mean seriously Prince/King Han Solo?
        I don’t think solo…….

        After the death of Sheev the Princess becomes a Queen. Leia, while keeping the name of the Royal House of Alderaan. Also took on her birth name.

        Queen Leia Organa Skywalker.

        Shortly after Queen Leia took on this new role of power she gave birth to a baby girl. Since this is still a harsh time for the galaxy raising her daughter in the public eye was out of the question. So the child was sent to be raised on the far off junk planet of Jakku by her father, Han Solo.

        So you are a Solo, but the Force is strong in your family. You are a Skywalker.

        Kira Rey Skywalker!!!

          Honestly, I don’t think I have found a single fan theory where Daisy’s character is NOT Han and Leia’s daughter.

          It’s like the concept of her being unrelated to them in any way has simply never entered anyone’s mind.

    If that is really Jakku where R2 and Luke are camping, then I guess we can forgot all the “he´s only at the end of part 3”, right? 🙂

      Not really. The shot in the teaser is probably from the Flashback sequence that Making Star Wars described to us:

      Flashback: Exterior Dusk at the Academy – It is noted it is peaceful now. Artoo-Detoo is saddened as his master departs.

      According to MSW, this Flashback sequence is the only other scene with Luke in it, apart from the closing sequence.

      • April 28, 2015 at 10:47 pm
        Permalink

        why would the jedi academy be on jakku? and why would they use an old mark hammil in a flashback?

        MSW probaby just doesn’t have the full list of shots. Remember, hammil was on set at pinewood for weeks, AND on location at skelling. he’s in more than one scene. msw got it wrong.

        • April 28, 2015 at 11:26 pm
          Permalink

          I don’t know why the academy would be on Jakku. But there was a rumour that the young Luke Skywalker in the flashback sequence is not played by Mark Hamill but by another actor who closely resembles him (or maybe it is Hamill in the Flashback sequence, but we don’t see his face).
          So far, there is nothing that indicates that MSW is wrong. In fact, most of the spoilers that he shared since february (when he got some sort of official documents) have been proven right with the second teaser. He may be sometimes off with his interpretation of some sequences, but the basic beats are most likely right.

            MSW also got the description of the second teaser completely wrong! Don’t believe any rumors, people!!

            Permalink

            He got the teaser description 70% percent right. Many of the shots he described were in the teaser, such as:
            – The crashed Star Destroyer.
            – Darth Vaders helmet on a podium.
            – X-Wings flying in formation.
            – We have seen Kylo Rens helmeted face.
            – Stormtroopers.
            – The Chrome Trooper.
            – Some ships flying to a Star Destroyer.
            – Millenium Falcon.

            And even the shots that were not in his description line up with some of his recent spoilers for the last two or three months. You only dismiss him because you don’t like the sound of his spoilers, but you can’t ignore these facts.

            Makes no sense so stop trying to convince people of it.

            EVEN if MSW is right about that bit of information it is almost 100% NOT that scene in the teaser.

            First off the Academy is NOT on Jakku. 2nd “R2 is saddened as his Master departs..” In the teaser scene Luke is clearly sitting near a camp fire (or a funeral pyre) and is settling in. He appears to be in deep thought and is comforting R2 (or looking to him for comfort). He is not “departing”.

            Its Luke and its not a flashback.

          • April 29, 2015 at 10:30 am
            Permalink

            First: Nowhere in MSW’s infos is it clearly stated where the academy is or was. For all we know, it could be on every possible planet in the GFFA – even on Jakku.
            Second: The flashback scene shows according to MSW a massacre at the academy. “Dead bodies are on the ground. Luke turns up”. He appears at his academy after the massacre. Then he buries his students, so I agree with you that this is a funeral pyre. And after that, he departs.
            Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to convince anyone that MSW is 100% legit. If you don’t believe him, that’s fine. I understand that many people are upset about the cameo Luke rumours. I have to admit that I was also upset. Unfortunately, I for myself don’t see anything that directly contradicts MSW’s information.

            Im not discounting MSW. I follow the spoilers and they are fairly accurate. I just dont see this scene fitting into that particular description.

            If its a flashback why does Luke have a bionic hand WITHOUT the flesh. If he has had a period of peace in which to recruit and train young Jedi, at what point would he have lost the fleshy part of his bionic hand? Isnt it much more likely it was lost during a fight somewhere in EPVII?

          • April 29, 2015 at 7:45 pm
            Permalink

            That’s a good question. Maybe he lost the flesh sometime in between VI and VII. Or, as I read somewhere, it was because his mechanical hand was damaged during the fight at the Great Pit of Carkoon in ROTJ and he simply got rid of the hand’s flesh. Who knows? We will get the true answer when we sit in the cinema in December, but, until then, we all can enjoy discussing such rumours. 🙂

            Permalink

            “at what point would he have lost the fleshy part of his bionic hand?”

            Maybe he purposefully keeps it exposed as mechanical as a reminder that he could have followed his father to the Dark Side.

            Also, just because it looks like Luke is “settling in” (I don’t actually agree though) doesn’t mean that Luke won’t depart after that shot. We aren’t seeing the entire scene in the teaser. He could just be telling R2 that he has to go away for all we know.
            And on the trailer being different, it was already reported – in the panel or an interview after, I think – that they were working on various iterations of the trailer before settling on this one, so the descriptions that were a bit off could have been describing an earlier version before the final one.

          Permalink

          It’s possible that the Jedi Academy that Luke tries to form is NOT located on Jakku…Hamill is likely not the person under the cloak, that being the younger actor they have to play him in the flashback scene.

          Notice that in the finished trailer scene that there are other geographic landforms in the background that look like they might have been CGI’d in. This is probably Luke and R2 reflecting on what appears to be a tragic event in the flashback scenes.

            “I’d rather Jacen and Jaina…”

            But would you be okay with their stories being completely different? It would cause confusion if they used the names but changed the stories. I personally don’t want the storylines and main characters from the EU to be a part of the films. The films should stand on their own and surprise us rather than be beholden to shaky book continuity.

            No offence, but I’m starting to get tired of hearing that argument. Jacen and Jaina were awesome characters and there was no reason not to use them in a new timeline of events. It would have been no different than what happened to Kirk, Spock and the others in Abrams’ Star Trek reboot. If anything, it would have been a welcome renewal after the character assassinations that occurred in the NJO series onward.

        Well, one could look at it like the name difference between Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ben Kenobi. The audience is wise to these changes now especially now that we know many names in the Star Wars universe so they have to come up with another cover name. That is even assuming that Rey is a solo or Skywalker. I would love to see the offspring of characters that we already know but we cannot rule out the fact that they could be all new characters that only know of the original characters and may not be related at all.

      Kira was the code name for her during production so the character’s name wouldn’t be easily leaked. Rey could still be her cover in the movie and it could turn out to be something else. But Kira was basically her character’s equivalent of “The Catapult” which is what they were calling the super weapon during production.

      It’s JJ Abrams so I wouldn’t be surprised if she really ends up being revealed as Jaina deeper into the movie just to explode the minds of all the fans who thought that was gone. Not saying that’s what’s gonna happen. He just likes to do stuff like that.

          I’d have to agree. I don’t think they will use the Jacen and Jaina names because people will expect more of the EU in the new films (which isn’t a problem, just not a direction they were planning on going).

    This is some good detective work, but I have to disagree with the scene of Luke and Artoo. I don’t believe this on Jakku or that it’s the village that’s burning. I think this scene is towards the end of the movie and that it’s a fire that Luke built. Now, why would Luke build such a big fire? The same reason he built one on Endor, remember?

          Maybe the flashback happened fairly recently. Maybe it’s a series of flashbacks between VI and VII that features both the new “young Luke” actor and Mark Hamill.

        Makes no sense so stop trying to convince people of it.

        EVEN if MSW is right about that bit of information it is almost 100% NOT that scene in the teaser.

        First off the Academy is NOT on Jakku. 2nd “R2 is saddened as his Master departs..” In the teaser scene Luke is clearly sitting near a camp fire (or a funeral pyre) and is settling in. He appears to be in deep thought and is comforting R2 (or looking to him for comfort). He is not “departing”.

        Its Luke and its not a flashback.

    wasn’t it Isaac’s uncle who was given a random part when he visited the set? i have no idea how tall the guy is and you can’t make the scale out of the height of the gonk droid that well(aside from the fact that it appears that it could walk under the xwing), but would it be cool if that was his uncle in the gonk droid… being as how Isaac made a big deal about dressing up as a gonk droid before..

    This actually made me upset with how irrational it is. Shamelessly, and blatantly so:

    “I don’t think there is a conspiracy here and this is indeed Luke, and this is surely not his only scene in the movie.”

    Everything leading up to this statement had been working toward arguing that this was Luke in the image. You had effectively argued that contention with various points. HOWEVER, at the end of the remarks you suddenly shoe-horn in: “and this is surely not his only scene in the movie.” Nothing that you had said up to that point had effectively argued or even made any attempt at arguing, that this was not his only scene. You hadn’t even made MENTION of his screen-time in the entire article up until that point. Therefore you simply blurted it out, most likely because you want it to be true, but wishing something to be true, and, in denialism of the contrary points, randomly saying it at any given moment, does not magically make it true.(It seems to be something that is on your mind and eating away at you, this possibility and likelihood, and you are in denial hence the sudden showing of what’s on your mind in the blurting.)

    In short:
    just because that is Luke’s hand doesn’t mean that it isn’t his only scene. This could still indeed be his only scene. Where are the premises placed that qualify your sudden “and this is surely not his only scene in the movie” statement, or was that wishful thinking and a sudden silly irrational blurting?

    It was just such a random and unprofessional knee-jerk statement in an otherwise logical article that aims to support the conclusions that had been arrived at.

      Did him saying that really get you that riled up. I think the fact that Luke is in the trailer makes it more likely that he has more scenes in the movie. Why would you show someone in a trailer and then have them in one scene in an entire movie.

      My point is that it isn’t just hoping or wishing. But in fact logical to think that Luke will have more then one scene in a Star Wars movie.Especially since he is shown in the trailer lol

        I would like Luke to be in more than one scene, but the unpopular rumors that stick around no matter what are often accurate (of course there are exceptions).

        Sometimes trailers are misleading. I remember being surprised that Drew Barrymore was only in one scene when I first saw Scream, since the trailer and propaganda around the movie hinted that she was a major character. A similar occurrence happened with George Clooney and John Travolta in The Thin Red Line only making cameos.

        At this point I am preparing myself for not seeing that much of Luke. That way I will be pleasantly surprised if he is in it more, and hopefully not disappointed if he’s not.

        Would Mark Hamil go through all the trouble of losing weight, working out for months, and growing the beard for a mere cameo. Just doesn’t add up.

          Yes, because he was atrociously unfit for screen before the weight loss.

            Yeah, I mean, Marlon Brando didn’t lose ANY weight for his role in Apocalypse Now, and he was THE MAIN FRIGGIN VILLAIN OF THE FILM.
            The whole film builds up to his character and then in the 3rd act… he’s a fat guy.
            Look, I think there’s a shortage of overweight main characters, so I won’t judge that, however having a fat villain in the middle of the friggin jungle just logistically doesn’t make sense.

            If Marlon Brando can’t lose weight for a grand finale main character, why the hell would Mark Hamill lose weight for a cameo? For just one scene, they’d just use graphics to make him thinner.

      Or more likely MSW has seen nothing more than a few camera logs, some concept art that hasn’t been leaked, and was given descriptions of the trailers and that’s about it.

      Honestly you people are out of your league and don’t even really know the sport if you think this one site with extremely vague descriptions of scenes and characters, and plenty of contradictory information actually knows all of what’s going on with this movie.

      For some of us, this isn’t our first rodeo lol

      Also did anyone else just NOT notice Poe’s complete non appearance in any of the Jakku footage? I seem to recall MSW reporting that Poe’s Xwing crashes on the planet and Rey drags it back presumably for salvage. Pretty damn sure that’s not happening at all, unless she’s salvaging the old model Xwing crashed from the battle that happened decades before.

      I’d say it’s pretty much totally completely and entirely safe to assume this movie is going to be quite different than what’s been pieced together from rumors.

      Answer me this: if Mark Hammil filmed this scene at pinewood and that’s his only scene, then why did he go to Skelling and film at least one more scene with Rey there? Wouldn’t that be more than one scene?

      • April 28, 2015 at 11:15 pm
        Permalink

        MSW says that Luke is in two scenes, not one. Pay attention to every Hamill interview he has given up to this point. He talked about not seeing a stylist in a long time, and consistently downplayed his role in the film.

        • April 28, 2015 at 11:25 pm
          Permalink

          MSW claims that Mark Hammill is only in one scene, the scene in Skelling. The flashback is supposedly a different actor. This is just super unlikely, especially given the evidence in this post.

          Now, he may only be in 2 or 3 or 4 scenes. But he filmed at Pinewood and he filmed at Skelling, so it’s more than one scene.

      Jason is that you? It boggles my mind that people think this rumour is true, Firstly MSW have some credibility but if you go back and look through all their reports they contradict themselves numerous times with several differing reports on Luke’s role, and when the are right its very vague. Secondly does anyone think they’d make Mark go through so much hassle losing weight, growing the beard, shooting at Pinewood for months and shooting at Skellig just for two tiny scenes in the film that they could of got a stand in to do, it just doesn’t make sense. People also aren’t taking into account that there is no way JJ, Kathelne, Kasdan, disney or even Hamill himself would take such as massive risk when trying to restart the franchsie. The film is going to do a lot of pandering to the fans having Luke probably the most beloved character, the person the saga revolves around, in for two scenes with no dialogue would be an illogical mistake. Finally i think theres a high chance that Jason is either being misinformed by his source or is in on misinformation

      What if we take the Battlefront teaser shot with the Imperial Star Destroyer crushing on the surface of the planet and Boba doing his thing as a hint that Jakku is in fact Tattooine?
      I mean, it is said that the battle happened shortly after ROTJ? Well, there you have beaten up Boba, straight outta Sarlacks pitt. Then you have the ISD going down, looking exactly (damage-wise) like the one in the teaser. Finally you have Sandcrawler – I mean, we don’t see Jawas outside of Tatooine ever in the Prequels, Clone Wars or Rebels. I think it would be safe to assume that they are native to the planet and have no desire nor technological means to embark on interstellar travels right?
      I will still go with the whole mystery box thing, and bet that Jakku is Tatooine. Could have been renamed after events from ROTJ or after the battle?

      The central figure in the First Order parade totally looks like Domhnall Gleeson in this resolution and the chrome trooper is clearly visible. Maybe the Vader to his Tarkin, whereas Kylo is more just using them for resources, troops etc. for his own/the dark side’s purpose

      An SSD is like a flying mini city. Ya just gotta figure that it isn’t just all operation centers, personnel quarters and detention areas. I wonder if there are some leased units in there i.e.: Imperial Taco Bell, Imperial 24 Hr Fitness, etc. I wouldn’t even be surprised if there was a traveling strip club on that joint. Would love to see this depicted in the movies.

    2., also, look at the fingernails. AS contrary to the character it may seem, Rey can always wear rings… but growing out her fingernails like that really doesn’t make sense, especially when we see her hands later, you can’t even see fingernails. The only things which suggests that the woman isn’t Leia, is that the hands don’t look particularly old/like Carrie Fisher’s. Perhaps they’ve used some sort of body double here?

    6. I’m quite certain that the jacket was Poe’s. Whether Finn grabbed it when he crashed or Poe gave it to him, I’m uncertain. I can see him using a Resistance fighter’s jacket to try and make himself appear as someone who he isn’t. The lightsaber may be connected to the mission Leia had given Poe.

    I have terrible news for some of you. The movie has finished filming. Months ago. It is now in the process of being edited and based on some reports JJ is 2/3 of the way there. Wait, there’s more. Early word from sources who have seen or know of someone who has seen the work so far claim that the film is going to be great. Will blow people’s minds. The teasers have done a fantastic job of wetting people’s appetites for this film. It is a guaranteed to make a lot of cash. And if it is as good as the sources suggest it could challenge for highest grossing movie of all time. Imagine that.

    Okay here is where it gets worse for some of you losers. Last time I checked John Boyega is still in this film. He hasn’t been edited out, his role has not been changed or decreased. I recall back when we got the first casting announcement there were a number of you just hoping Boyega would not play much of a role in the film. At the most you thought you might have to tolerate him as some side character like Lando who was not the center of the action. But then when filming started in Abu Dhabi with only Boyega and Daisy Ridley on location and later on during filming when all the off-set pictures and reports seemed to center on those two, I’m sure many of you started wondering what the heck was going on? Why was that black dude popping up in all those reports? Then came the first teaser and press reports about Boyega’s large role in the film and still a portion of you people remained adamant that Boyega was to be nothing more than a glorified extra. There was a word for that: denial.

    Here we are now though post second teaser, post SE Celebration, post plenty of reported spoilers and it is clear that your worst nightmare has indeed come true. Boyega is playing a character named Finn. Finn is a lock to be one of the primary characters of the new trilogy. If he isn’t the central character, he is the second best thing to it. Odds are the character is force sensitive too which means he will eventually use a lightsaber. Which means he will be a jedi. Oooh. From provided spoilers it looks as if he is going to have one of the most interesting backstories of any SW movie character. He may even touch Rey’s hand in the film! Those of you bigots (and, yes, that’s what most of you haters have come across) are going to have to suck it up and deal with it.

    Then again maybe you should do your fragile egos a favor and boycott the upcoming film. Just stick with Rebels. Or watch some JRR Tolkien films where you will be safe from black characters who don’t know their place. Go hang out with your buddies on Stormfront. Go join the Klan or whatever piece of garbage racist organizations that exist in your country. But realize that most people are going to see the film without giving two cents about your worthless opinions. You can do your best. Toss around the n word, call people n-word lovers, resort to other racist remarks. In fact you can go ahead and direct your juvenile, insecure bigotry towards me. No one’s afraid or impressed by your impotent keyboard racism. Go ahead and take a screenshot of your remarks because the people who run this site will soon delete your words from the page anyway just as the rest of us delete your useless lives from our memory.

    Keep on taking your shots at Boyega. He’s living the good life, he has made something of himself. Meanwhile those of you who resort to bigoted remarks to put him down have obviously done little of worth with your own little lives. You are nothing. Just a bunch of scared clowns looking to gain attention on a message board. A Star Wars message board. Congratulations on your achievement.

    And for any willfully ignorant individual who responds with some nonsense about not seeing any legitimate forms of racism in regards to how Boyega is talked about by some on this site, you are either lying through your teeth or unaware how many racist posts/comments the moderators have to delete on an often daily basis. What a sad representation of Star Wars fandom.

But I think to many people worry to much about such little nonsense that it can sometimes cloud their views and judgments.

      I think the movie will be a blockbuster and most of the people who complain about such things. Maybe watching it will be a step closer to changing their narrow minded points of view.

      The bigotry is out of hand but so is anti-bigotry.
      I get it, white guys are dicks sometimes.
      other races can do it too.

      The important thing isn’t to beat the racists at their own game, the important thing is to ban the game.
      Banning the game means not judging a person on race.

      Banning the game is judging every race equally.

      It’s not racist to say John Boyega is a bad actor, neither is it racist to say he’s a good actor.
      It is racist [and lazy] to make jokes about him based off of stereotypes concerning his heritage.

      This goes both ways.

      It’s not racist for me to say Obama is a bad president, because I’m judging him on behavior, NOT APPEARANCE. If he was white, I’d hate him just as much as I do now, but that’s my opinion, and if you’re gonna hate on my opinion, by all means do, just don’t use the KKK as a shield.
      I’m a Nazi just because I think someone’s policies are bad? Really? Still?

      Tim Snow is toxic, [and banned, like, 30 times]

      ^^^^ Anonymous, who started this thread, is also Toxic, he’s toxic because hate is his fuel, he’s asking me to treat anyone who pisses him off like a leper, which just ain’t my style.
      Being just as closed minded as your enemy only works out for one person: you.

      My opinion is that this whole thread is counter-productive.

      Fastest way to end a ping-pong game:

      Don’t knock back the ball,
      Throw it out the window.

      Also, where the hell is Admiral Ackbar? Is he in War-Jail or something?

        Interesting points about racism and anti-racism and how both can be extremes and essentially two sides of the same coin.

        Regarding all the vitriol directed at poor John, IMO this stems from the fact that he’s not just black. He’s very black.

        Historically blacks in films have been mixed, like Billy Dee Williams, which made them easier for white audiences to relate to and connect with.

        But with John, who has very dark skin and no white features at all, and an unkempt afro to boot, this is why so many seem put off by him and are unwilling to give him a chance.

        In their eyes, he’s just too darn black. So they automatically don’t like, and subsequently wish to exclude him from any prominent role within the film.

        I hope this didn’t come off as racist, I’m just trying to get to the heart of the matter and explain why some are reacting in such a hostile manner towards John.

          I’ve never had a preference and honestly I’m not sure how much of a difference it makes for other people. I actually find people who are FROM Africa more interesting [though I thought Boyega was from London, but I don’t follow actor’s personal lives that closely], so I’d be surprised if that’s the reason people will cite, really it’s his acting chops that are in question, but with Star Wars you never know which actor will work and which actor will be a miss, so I’ll wait and see.

        I’d rather call someone like that silly, because I’ve seen Boyega’s acting in one film and it wasn’t bad. Also I didn’t see bad acting in the teasers.
        Sure it is possible, some people only hate his acting cause of his skin colour. And what is with those people who have a major problem with him carrying a lightsaber, without seeing the movie? All these people have portrayed their attitude really well here so we do not need to jump to conclusions. Racism isn’t an opinion, it’s a brain disease.

    Great article, I’m surprised they let out the info of Finn with Lightsaber in pocket, also the Star Destroyer / Super Star Destroyer difference is something I didn’t notice, I guess whatever battle was pretty big,
    Max V Sidow, Ruler of the Lost Regiment, is sounding more plausible every day.

    Also the Heavy Troopers look awesome, I didn’t know they were a thing.

    Now on a different note, thinking about Trailer #2, I think Leia holding Anakin’s Lightsaber is a rather striking image.
    Now Anakin’s Lightsaber I think is the Real Center of the Entire Saga, because of who and what it represents.
    It’s the Lightsaber that defeated Count Dooku and the Separatist Government, massacred the majority of the Jedi Padawans, was used against Obi-wan, was taken by Obi-wan and given to Luke, starting Luke’s journey into Jedihood.
    Now to Luke this Lightsaber represented the great deeds of Anakin Skywalker, the Jedi Hero. There was an illusion of grand heroism misattributed to this lightsaber, Luke discovering that his Hero is also his Great Nemesis at the same exact time that he looses his Lightsaber is no coincidence. The Lightsaber IS Anakin’s Legacy, his Heroic Deeds and his Fall into Evil are both represented by this one object.
    Now the Lightsaber has returned. At the same time as Luke getting a successor, at the same time as a new Evil Rising to Power. It brings up this question: Does this mean that in a way, Vader has been revived? symbolized by the return of the Lightsaber?
    Also what is Leia’s emotion upon seeing this artifact? Surely she knows this is the Lightsaber her father used to build the Empire, the Empire that destroyed her adoptive home planet? But it’s the same object that accompanied her brother on his quest to defeating the Empire, so as she sees the Lightsaber, what is she feeling? What kind of emotional issues is this going to dig up? Surely Leia has a lot of hurt that has been left unresolved over the years, this Lightsaber surely has to pull a few skeletons out of the closet.
    I think this is the single most symbolic, important shot in of the Film seen thus far…

      Interesting points. Another thing about lightsabers is that the primary crystal actually “chooses” it’s “owner” (as demonstrated in a TCW episode about younglings facing some trials on Illium) which is canon. Have to wonder if there was any tremor felt in the Force when the recipient in the trailer receives the weapon?

      Yes, I agree, the lightsaber is totally a significant plot element, possibly the most crucial.

    I also feel the new troopers could of had a black central “mouth” area in the under side of their helmet, rather than nothing in the central under area. from most angles the new troopers look good, but some angles reveal a few areas that could have been a tiny bit better imho.

    1) Another clue that it is Luke. There was a post here months ago that described Luke’s costume, Black outer cloak, white inner costume, and that’s what the figure is wearing. That post also said that this costume symbolised Luke’s character – a bit dark and scary on the outside, but inside still good. That this image seems to support that post is a big take out from the 2nd trailer.

    1. Stormtroopers appear to be fighting one and other in the hanger battle scene.

    2. Is Jakku another moon of Endor given that there is both a Super Star Destroyer and an X-Wing crashed on it or is it even the Ewok moon of Endor which has been ravaged following the Death Star 2 battle? This could explain how Vader’s helmet has come back into play.

        If you watch that scene slowly you can see the stormtrooper next to the tie shooting at the other stormtroopers coming out of the transport ships. Could be poe is in the tie and finn is not in it yet. But there is at least one stormtrooper firing at the others

    In the hangar sequence we can see, in the background, one of the same ships that seem to accompany Kylo Ren’s shuttle towards the “new” Star Destroyer. Could it mean that we are going to see a civil war between various factions of the empire?

    SPOILER – The shot of Luke and Artoo is almost certainly from the “Seven’s” destruction of the Jedi academy and the killing of all of Luke’s young padawans (or simple apprentices if he’s abandoning old-school teachings) on Tatooine from the flashback sequence. Reported extensively on other spoiler-centric sites. The still shot during the day was probably a rehearsal shot for blocking purposes (the set reportedly had a false floor for the puppeteers who operate Rose), but the shot from the trailer was actually the scene from the film.

      Don’t you see it? It has been right there the whole time.
      THE SOLO TWINS
      Kira Rey Solo
      Kylo Ren Solo

        This has been eluded to for months, but it is still not finite. I believe it as you do, but for all we know Poe Dameron is a relation as well with a different name.
        I’m just stuck on Gleeson vs Driver as Kylo Ren. And if its Gleason I’m leaning towards that he could be the product of Mara Jade and Luke. Perhaps Kylo is Driver and Gleeson is another sith.
        At this point I’m thinking JJ has got this story tight, because no one rely knows if Serkis is Kylo or the Ancient one.
        For all we know he is a Sith general.
        Also how did the Solo’s lose track of each other? Because from what I’ve seen for the last year makes me assume that if these are solo twins Daisey’s character doesn’t seem to know them. She’s a Junk dealer and if mom is Leia, and Leia is a Queen as well as Dad being a commander of a star destroyer, then she is in hiding like Luke or just really likes junk.
        Also the the other twin is darkside, there must be some major family issues during this intergalactic war:)

      Maybe Luke is in the village Kylo and the troops destroy at the opening.

        What if Luke feels a disturbance at the end of the movie, finds that Solo has been killed and makes a funeral pyre with R2 for Solo. Everyone else had to leave in haste. Just himself and R2 to morn. Brings Luke to his knees in pain and he knows that he now has the inspiration to come out of hiding and confront the new evil.

    Still kinda curious how a 19 kilometer long Super Star Destroyer ends up on the ground, on her back while looking intact…

      That’s the kind of question that you can win No-Prizes if you put a little creative thinking in the idea yourself.

      For example: let’s say a a failure in the SSD’s antigrav drives led it to begin falling towards the planet, yet one drive on one side of the ship was functioning sporadically during the descent and sent it spiraling on its long axis until it crash upside down. The massive and cushy sand dunes on the planet vs the vessels super-strong space alloys allowed the impact of the crash to be absorbed enough to leave the ship in relatively few pieces.

        No, it can’t be THAT strong, I’m thinking it glided down slowly, more like a Zeppelin than a plane. Don’t know if it flipped above or flipped closer to the surface.
        But then again we have seen ships flying with the planet above them [e.i. upside down from the planet’s POV], but I don’t think most ships have anti-grav hover-thrusters on their top.

        I’m thinking the most logical solution is that the ship was damaged, steered uncontrollably into the planet [or maybe it was marooned in orbit? slowly pulled down into the atmosphere by gravity?] so the ship eventually makes it’s way into atmosphere, at which point Max Von Sydow orders them to fire up the engines, they still can’t steer, but with strategic use of the different thrusters they keep the ship going more or less horizontal at a relatively low-er speed, however it is starting to lean into a spin. Then as they’re approaching the dunes, the ship with damaged controls plus a cross-breeze of wind send the ship into an all-out spin, flipping it upside-down, the anti-grav boosters – that were keeping the ship nose-up – are now slamming the ship nose-down into the sand. The ship grinds to a halt with 30% of what used to be it’s top ground into rubble, leaving the engines more or less the last thing intact.

        One thing’s for sure, whatever battle caused all of this must have been FUBAR

      Or how a planet could survive the impact of a 19km long object of any kind… an asteroid the size of a large house could wipe out most of Siberia…

      … Oh, I forgot, this is Star Wars. Wasn’t there a science article on what would have really happened to the Ewoks on Endor if the Second Death Star exploded that close?… BBQ!

    Maybe someone mentioned this before, but, in the shot that Kylo Ren looks back and uses the force, in the first frame you can see the background on focus and we see the people from the village they attack. I’m surprised there’s only humans!

    I notice on the place card under REY’S Junk speeder at the Celebration’s exhibit is marked KIRA. Daisey Ridley’s dressing room door was marked as such, at a time when I was still under the impression that Kira was just a possible code name. I’m now assuming that the Kira name is Official? Being that the trading cards were marked Rey and she was always referred to by cast and crew as such I was uncertain if Kira Rey was the characters official name.

      THE SOLO TWINS
      Kira Rey Solo
      Kylo Ren Solo

      I am guessing they didn’t want to release her whole name because folks would make the connection to the siblings.

    A few days ago some actors name came up as cast as a “Sith General”. This has me thinking that as there was a jedi order and a sith order before, maybe this new “First Order” is a collection of people where the leaders are training in the sith ways ( all the black suited bods in the trailer under the First Order flag ) …hmmmm

    No one knew the name Jakku before Star Wars Celebration.

    Thank you JJ.

      Actually, some guy posted rumors about the teaser some weeks before the Celebration and he said that the planet was called “Jakku”.

    Finn is the child of Lando and Leah. While Han was trapped in carbinite the affair took place in the clouds above Bespin. This explains why he is force sensitive, as his mother is a Skywalker. He was raised on Bespin by his father Lando, who we know had dealings with the Empire. As a rebellious youth Finn would sneak down to the lower levels of Cloud City to smoke Death Sticks. This is where he found the severed hand and light saber of Luke skywalker. (His uncle) Finn grew up sympathetic to the empire and eventually became a storm trooper. Episode 7 begins when he has a force vision that changes his attitude towards the Empire.

      Finn’s too black to be the love child of white Leia and mixed Billy Dee.

        You never know, people mix in unpredictable ways, genetics are anything but predictable.

        Also Leia is CLEARLY NOT INTERESTED in Lando, no matter how smooth his moves are.

    Had a thought about these things pointed out I the trailer, combined with what I have noticed in the trailer and on some of the rumours.
    I think that we see lupita nyongos character give leia Luke’s light sabre as she might know who it belongs too or she is known to be involved with the new Jedi order. Leia then sends Poe to jakku to deliver the lights saber to Luke. Events don’t go to plan and the weapon ends up with rely and finn

    Max Von Sydows character is actually…….Boba Fett… The whole Jango Fett kid clone stuff, well lets just say that clone will have been eliminated.. Han has had Fett (Sydow) guarding Kira for her own protection as she is a “Solo”..

    Agreed. And Jakku was renamed by the Hutts or the “Empire” after the battle of Tatooine. Fett survives after grapple hooking the hero’s skiff and pulling him out as they fly away in ROTJ.

      Even for Star Wars that’s a little far-fetched.
      Wait, the guy has like a disintegrator on him, why not just blast a hole and use a pig-guard’s spine to dig his way through the sand?
      Or he could just remember his shaolin training and PUNCH A HOLE in the creature, and, magically burrow his way through twenty feet of dirt because he’s awesome?

    Anybody care to explain why Disney elected to go with an urban, Nigerian black guy as the lead male actor, which neither makes sense in the context of Star Wars cannon, nor in terms of demographics as blacks only makeup 12% of the US population.

    And too boot, most Star Wars are white males.

    I’ve thought about this, quite a bit, and I still can’t figure it out.

      To be honest it’s very simple.. even you might understand if you think hard: Luke is the archetypal white guy.. he is “perfect” in a sense and made for a compelling protagonist because of how “neutral” he was. Everyone could project themselves upon him. YOU WOULD BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND ANOTHER WHITE GUY WHO WILL TOP LUKE (An example of this is Hayden. Anakin should of been as compelling as Luke if not more so.. but his character was a huge failure especially compared to Luke. Enter Boyega.. yeah he’s not like you.. but it allows JJ a fresh start with his protagonist. He doesn’t look like Luke and he doesn’t need to. He needs to stand on his own as one character in a growing story of thousands.

    I think you missed a detail in the First Order scene. The “Death Star Turrets” are there, but they seem to have 3 cannons, not 2 like the ones on the Death Star.

    Seems the Empire/First Order has learned from “They are so small they are evading our turbolazers…”
