New Star Wars: The Last Jedi TV Spot Shows Battle Of Crait, Plus New Shots Of Luke & Leia

Star Wars The Last Jedi Luke Watching

Another big sports game – in this case, the World Series – means that there’s room for another big TV spot for Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi. Those of you fearful of spoilers may want to start tuning out right about now, but for everyone else, click ahead to see an abundance of new footage.

 

 

 

 

Quite a bit of footage to process here! Some highlights are as follows.

  • Luke activating the Millennium Falcon.
  • A close-up on Kylo Ren before he smashes his helmet.
  • A slightly-extended shot of one of the Resistance ships being destroyed while other ships escape. (Perhaps a minor character gets killed on this ship, and the camera focuses on it for the sake of added drama?)
  • Snoke in his throne room with Hux, along with the new line “Darkness rises, and light to meet it.” (Serkis’s delivery on the first half of the line seems different than his usual “Snoke voice”, but it sounds like it’s him and not Snoke talking to another character.)
  • New shots of Kylo Ren and Rey’s lightsabers.
  • Luke looking at Rey’s training with some concerns (pictured above).
  • Shots of the Millennium Falcon participating in the Battle of Crait, along with Finn cheering it on.
  • The Millennium Falcon losing its newer radar dish (as it gets shot off by a TIE this time) on Crait and escaping from the cavern below.
  • A new shot of Leia at the command bridge of the Raddus.
  • A shot of Rey standing with her lightsaber, looking conflicted while towering over Luke Skywalker. (The way the shot flows makes it look like this is a bit of reversed footage, done for the sake of advertising.)
  • More than enough footage of the Battle of Crait to make sure that it’s not a repeat of the Battle of Hoth (along with a slightly extended take on the TIE cockpit crash-landing into Crait).

 

Lucasfilm took their sweet time to wait before launching the ad blitz on this movie, and it looks like they’re ready

    Who is saying “Darkness rises” before Snoke sais “and light to meet it.”?
    checked with the latino version (english with subtitles in spanish) and Snoke says light, by the way, that voice sounds different than Snoke’s maybe Benicio del Toro?

      By the way the subtitles say “La Oscuridad crece … y tambien la Luz, para enfrentarla.” so Darkness rises… pretty straight forward but the second part means that the light is rising two to face it

    I’m not going to lie; a part of me teared up when I saw Luke inside the Falcon. I try not to get overwhelmed by nostalgia. It isn’t my thing. But remembering Luke in that ship back in ANH and seeing him explore that cockpit; I just choked up.

    As for this TV spot, nothing much to say but those new shots. This movie looks amazing! Major props to Steve Yeldin; the cinematographer for this movie. This looks so much better than TFA. And that final shot: I hate to admit it; but Daisy Ridley looks amazing.

    So yeah; I’m already sold. I cannot wait to see how this movie turns out. December please come sooner. 🙂

    I don’t think Luke and Rey are fighting each other in the rain. I think that may be a huge misdirect. I’m starting to think they are attacked on the island and Rey is captured. Luke wipes out the Knights of Ren then fired up the Falcon to go after Rey.

      I can actually see that. Plus, it would subvert the trope that I hope to dear god doesn’t happen where Luke is like Yoda and doesn’t want to leave Ach-too. I want this movie to be like what TFA should have been. Do some homages, but ultimately do not be tied down by them. Forge one’s path.

      Luke shouldn’t need to be like Yoda or even Obi-wan. He needs to be his own character. And really, if I could liken a comparison to how I want to see Rey and Luke’s relationship; I want it to be like the Karate Kid with Daniel and Miyagi.

      The best pupil and mentor relationships to me aren’t just the ones where the master imparts wisdom/knowledge, but rather they change and develop as a result of the Pupil. Given Luke’s situation of loosing his temple, no doubt he is cynical and skeptical. As such, I want Luke to be affected by Rey to where her presence affects him.

      Perhaps, rekindles that spark he had when he was younger. And if Rian Johnson is the same director I fell in love with, then I know he will focus on that relationship in making it as believable as possible.

        The one thing they can do to really screw this up, is make Luke the old hero who doesn’t have anything left and will sacrifice himself because that is all he can really do to help. The precedence so far is the older a jedi/sith get, the more powerful they are. Why that would be any different with Luke is beyond me.

        He better stick around and after all this is over he will start the jedi acadamy again and can have small parts in future movies.

          Permalink

          If the arc that gets him to the sacrifice is well developed (and, most likely, over the course of two movies) that could be a nice way for the character to go out in a blaze of glory, giving future SW installments some – much needed – room to breath.

          I can see that. It would be disappointing. My hope is that if Luke is to die, let it be Episode Nine as that could present a sense of finality to where the Saga of nine films comes to a conclusion.

          If anything, I just want Luke to be more than just the mentor character. A part of me hopes he doesn’t go dark side, but I will hold that judgement until I see the movie.

          And really, I hope we get a good explanation as to why Luke left. I was fine with the movie not revealing it, with the promise of there being a good reason. Because, Luke in Legends I always saw as a forward thinker, one who thought two steps ahead in his later years.

          And while this Luke will certainly be different, if there is one thing LF could poach from Legends that would make sense for Luke, it is this aspect. Because, he is not the same farm boy from Tattooine.

            What better way to incorporate Mara Jade than to have him not be able to save her from the Knights of Ren attack on the Jedi Acadamy. Her death combined with Ben turning, would surely test anyones faith.

            That would have been amazing to see, but LF wanted to forge their own path. Honestly, if it were up to me; I would have done a take on the New Jedi Order. Not, follow the EU directly. But use it as a template. Have Rey and Finn be students at Luke’s new Jedi Order.

            But it is what it is. Hence, why I see these films as being an alternative timeline.

            That would be best case scenario if they are looking to write off Luke, because then we don’t get any Mara Jade. This way we get 30 years of Mara Jade before the TFA.

            Now, if they are planning on not writing off Luke (like Han) then yeah let’s introduce Mara now. But that doesn’t seem likely.

      It could be a Jedi Temple trial/exam/vision, as we saw in Rebels, Clone Wars, and Dagobah, Jedi Temples are special places where visions happens and jedis are tested in some sort of dreams.

        I’m pretty sure it’s Snoke too. A bit like Palpatine with his ‘Chancellor’ voice for the masses, and his ‘evil voice’ for his enemies/apprentices. I wonder if Snoke seems normal to everyone else, like Palpatine did?

          That rises the possibility that Snoke could also be another character, but unless they go for some overdone “revelation” that “Luke has fallen to the dark side and is secretly Snoke”, there is no obvious candidate.

          Perhaps, but when you think about it, Snoke was a holographic projection in a very large room with very high ceilings. I’m pretty sure under those circumstances anybody would sound quite a bit different.

        I don’t know what type of dialogue you’re expecting from a sequel Star Wars movie.

        TFA actually has the best written dialogue of any of the films so far that flows well compared to the quirky PT and OT dialogue by George. I’m sure TLJ will continue that trend.

        Unless you prefer “I hate sand, it gets everywhere.” kind of dialogue.

    Awesome! Can not wait! The shot of Luke entering the Falcon got me a little choked up thinking of Han and Chewie coming on board in TFA…. and the realization we’ll never see Leia have that moment in Episode IX. 🙁 But I am beyond excited to see TLJ!

    The shot of Luke on the Falcon doesn’t look right. Slow the video down and watch the shadow on his face. The shadow doesn’t move smoothly, it jitters, as does part of his lower face. I can’t for the life of me think of a reason why we would be thrown a curve seemingly this minor, but I’d guess that’s what’s going on here. Either that or something happens to Luke’s face before that scene and the editors were trying to hide it for this TV spot.

    Seeing the Falcon on Crait gives me hope of a Luke/Leia reunion. If Rey gets captured, I’m hoping Luke returns with Chewie and R2 to save the day on Crait, and finally give us that big emotional payoff of seeing Luke and Leia on-screen together one final time.

          If he wants to make “the best movie he can” — having a scene with the emotional-gravity that ONLY a Luke-Leia-reunion can provide would be a wise step. “The Best Movie he can” doesn’t mean ignore everyone and live in your own bubble where DJ and Rose have the same equity as Luke and Leia. They don’t, and they never EVER will.

            Well that’s my point —- you CAN’T recreate that sort of emotional gravity with the new characters. Finn and Rose embracing each other does not and will not hold the gravity of a Luke-Leia reunion. Period, end of story, I win.

            Lol well done. But it’s important that these new characters carry said emotional attachment. They may not be ready yet, what with it only being their 2nd appearance but it is very much the filmmaker’s job to build towards this. And I feel that Rey’s reunion with her parent(s) – wether this happens in VIII or IX – should be the most emotionally charged scene in the trilogy.

            Rey meeting Parents that we don’t know holds zero emotional weight. The “new characters” have decades ahead of them for us to develop emotional connection. For now, the wisest move for Disney would be to utilize LUKE as much as possible, while we still have him.

            Actually I do. A major party of storytelling is connecting with your audience, and the deeper you can emotionally connect with them — the longer they will carry that story with them.

            The OT is a great example of this — a story which connected with multiple generations so deeply that it will live forever. It’s amazing when I go to a shopping mall in Los Angeles, I’ll see a 40 year old hipster in a Star Wars: New Hope Shirt — and 5 minutes later see a 12 year old skateboarder in an Empire Strikes Back tee. Literally.

            I never see ANYONE in a Prequel shirt, ever. That’s a whole different rant tho 🙂

          Also a Luke-Leia reunion is not a “fan service” moment — it is the very heart of Star Wars. This ain’t Ponda Babba strolling through Rogue One here — Luke & Leia have a connection that transcends both trilogies and their reunion is fundamental.

    We are watching in Rebels Ezra/Kannan passing thru tests in Jedi Temples as Luke passed in Dagobah.
    I wonder if some of the footage we watch are similar tests Rey and may be Luke go thru in Ach-to.
    In this case those tests footage could be very misleading used in trailers as we can see in Rebels they are a bit surrealistic/out of plot situations, like entering in a dream.

            Only flashback cameos. I think he understands his own age limitations as well as the relevance of his character’s place in the narrative. The story keeps moving and evolving (which is why you should really consider being a little more open-minded to the new characters).

            Hi Jimsy — did you know that I LOVE Rey and Finn. They are tremendous. However, I am in NO rush whatsoever to see them given the “keys” to the Star Wars machine. Characters like Luke, Han, and Leia are sadly “limited resources” and should be pushed to the forefront as MUCH as possible, while we still have the chance to do so. Rey and Finn have decades (and countless trilogies) ahead of them. Why the rush to hand over the franchise to the newbies? Make them EARN it.

            Star Wars always has room for multiple plot threads. I see the pic of Finn. Rose, and Dr. Gonzo in Imperial disguise, and I get excited — a heist, with potential levity in an otherwise very serious film. I’m not the least bit skeptical about Rian’s ability to strike the proper balance.

            Plus, as actors in very physical roles, it gets exhausting to bear the weight of all the screen time. Compared to other big franchises (Harry Potter, LOTR, & Thrones), it’s still a very small cast.

      That still in my view was a huge missed opportunity in TFA. Out of all the nostalgia and winks the movie pushed, it neglected to push in my view one of the biggest ones.

      Because, Luke, Han and Leia to a lot of us where a family. A trio who when together, could take on the whole world. And so to not see them together, especially with Han dead in the movie, is disappointing.

      Especially, knowing that with Carrie Fisher dead, we will never get that trio together ever again.

        I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone, in the Star Wars universe, who CAN’T pilot a ship – better and worst pilots, granted, but to me, it always felt like the space version of what driving a car is in our world: are there any people who straight up don’t know how to drive a cas?

          I see no evidence of a double-blade. Though it’s funny you mention it. Ever since the first time I saw TFA I thought the way she fought with a long stick would make her perfect for wielding such a saber.

          In the video games, I always enjoyed it when I could have a Jedi with a double-blade. Seeing one in the new movies would finally make that weapon less of a “Sith only” kind of weapon (as so far it has only appeared in the hands of Darth Maul in TPM).

    Any ‘Twin Peaks’ fans out there feeling that the red room is Rian Johnson paying homage to the waiting room of the Black Lodge?

        I know that I’m going to get few here to even consider this, but I’ve been thinking of Snoke as a Wizard of Oz type of smokescreen created by Leia years ago (with seemingly good, yet deceptive intentions) in order to create a conflict to justify a cause, and it has backfired to the point that she just might be consumed by the Dark Side at this point, as Vader foretold.

        I’m not ready to put money on this idea, especially in light of Carrie’s passing, but it’s certainly a curve-ball consistent with Johnson’s level of weirdness.

        I’m not so sure, red seems to be the overarching theme in this movie (generally used by filmmakers to suggest a constant threat/impending doom). Also you could never use red as a ‘greenscreen’ as it is not a neutral colour. Superimposing pre-filmed footage over a red background would create a huge amount of extra effort for the post production editing team.

          Yes I understand, It is just the impression i got, it doesn’t seem finished or completed to me (I thougth maybe this is some new color for that), but it is because we are use to see a plain color (green/blue) and instantly know that it will be replaced with something in posptproduction, And here the same application but in red, just plane red. I get this are the actual walls, but the first time I see them I got that impression and Im still have that feeling a little bit.

            Though it’s quite possible in the final film the walls are just that, red (to focus on what’s in front of you, i.e. Snoke on his throne), some part of me is thinking there maybe something else about it. Perhaps it’s a a huge screen to watch him some late night Holonet vids or something?

      I can see that and if that is the case, then I am happy. What a lot of people do not realize is that George Lucas originally wanted to direct Flash Gordon. He didn’t get the rights and as such, went onto creating Star Wars. But I will be honest; I do love Flash Gordon. I argue he is an amazing character and his stories, while goofy, are timeless.

      It is why when I hear for example that Thor Ragnarok is like Flash Gordon that makes me excited. So to see the SWs franchise dip into that realm, a part of me gets really excited.

        It is funny because TFA and probably TLJ is autoreferencing Star Wars like the 2nd Part of El Quijote did about the 1st Part..
        That moment is like Finn, in the name of all of us, were telling Han Solo “Use the force… were not you the one who said it was fairy tales in SW IV?” after he explained the force in The Millenium Falcon to Rey and Finn previously as a believer.

            El Quijote 2nd part is deeper than the 1st and humanize characters, and they know there is a book about them (the first part), it is a kind of joke about reality inside the reality of literature.
            Saying this, I expected more evolution in Han Solo, he should have had some kind of Walter White/Heisenberg progress… but I wonder as they were going to kill him, there was no time to show that and it was easier to show us the same guy, same clothes, same deals…
            We will see a different Luke to discover, no doubt about it.
            And I truly fear about Chew in the TLJ.

    Seems like the whole “This is not going to go the way you think” line is Luke telling that to Kylo in a flashback scene when Kylo and the Knights of Ren destroyed Luke’s school. The trailer is trying to mislead and make people think it’s toward Rey. Just my 2 cents.

      I love the line because aside from being an amazing line of dialogue(Rian Johnson is an amazing screenwriter), it is a great meta line. As in, in the movie it will have impact, but meta in that this movie isn’t going to go the way one expects.

      Aka, this won’t be a remake of ESB. Which I hope not. But I have faith in Rian Johnson. A lot more than JJ Abrams.

        Yes. What an amazing line of dialogue, it’s definitely Rian Johnson’s best ever.

        He is a master of simple statements made in the English language. Bravo, Rian. Bravo.

          He really is and I am someone who pays a lot of attention to dialogue. And really, that goes to showcase how having someone who is a screenwriter on top of being a director is such a big asset. That isn’t me knocking non-screenwriting directors. They can be great. But if the dialogue of a screenplay sucks, then it is very hard to power through that.

          TFA, in my view, I felt the dialogue was so wonky. A lot of that was due to the screenplay.

            Hardly. If I were being an asshole to you you’d be balled up in a corner clenching your fists crying your sensitive little eyes out.

            But hey, you’ve come full circle in this conversation. You were finally able to identify some well written dialogue and post it. I’m proud of you.

            “This is not going to go the way you think.” This is great dialogue? Seriously? It’s a statement. With no context. It’s not great dialogue, it’s a sentence.

            “Darkness rises..and Light to meet it.” This is a superb bit of dialogue no matter the context. It sounds righteous. A much better example for you to fawn over that doesn’t make it look like you cheer every time someone says “Rian Johnson”.

            If you’re going to fan boy up before the film comes out and gush at dialogue in trailers, choose more carefully.

            There are some remarkably dumb people in the world. Thanks for helping me and anyone reading understand that.

            “But hey, you’ve come full circle in this conversation. You were finally able to identify some well-written dialogue and post it. I’m proud of you.”

            Pointing out a hypocrite and shining a mirror on them is hardly what I’d call praiseworthy as anyone with a semblance of rationality should do so. But go ahead; flatter yourself. It is much funnier that way.

            “If you’re going to fanboy up before the film comes out and gush at dialogue in trailers, choose more carefully.”

            I could say the same about you. Namely, being a sanctimonious prick towards those people excited about the movie, and justifying it with circular reasoning with a syntax error where you wrongly equate a sentence not being a line of dialogue.

            Overall, much as I’d love to continue this dance, my time is better spent away.Take care, you brilliant sophist.

            Nice diction.

            Despite all those adjectives you still failed to provide any defense against the fact you held up a simple sentence with no context as brilliant dialogue.

            I take pride in pointing out hypocrites, so don’t worry, I will revel in the joy of having busted you.

            Also, I’m not being a prick, I made a point and called you out for what you are. Even gave you an example of well written dialogue by your favorite Director you could peddle as BAD ASS! You know, to avoid future embarrassments.

            Again, someone is sensitive. *Waves* Have fun storming out of the castle!

      Perhaps you missed it.

      The Falcon is on Crait.

      Which means Rey and possibly Luke are at that battle.

      Helps with the time line of events in the film some.

          Did it? I guess I should have picked up on ‘red’ with the Falcon flying through the crystal cavern. But I was wondering if that wasn’t a planet full of kyber crystals bled red by Snoke’s dark side presence.

          The reality is much more boring 😛

            yeah the red crystals plus daisy ridley goofing around with boyega in the bts stuff in where ever they filmed the crait scenes. putting the two together gave the game away a bit.

            but to your point, snoke very well could be after more than just the resistance on that world… or it could be hoth 2.0, who knows. 😉

    Dear Lord of darkness, I can’t believe i haven’t seen the last 4 or 5 trailers. No trailer 2 (some friends said to me to avoid it cause it’s so explicit with lot of information), no tv spots, no international one, no awake… Just the first one… I can’t see more than 10 seconds. Something inside me, a strange dark force, makes me stop every time. When i think about it it’s so cool, because i have the sensation this film will have a lot of SW stuff and would be great to be surprised in visuals and argument parts. But at the same time it’s horrifying. I think i have lost a friend cause he can’t comment with me all the crazy stuff..

      It should have been the “BIG THREE” in TFA piloting the Falcon — alongside their BRAND NEW buddies Rey and Finn. Would have been incredible, tear-inducing, emotionally-satisfying, and would have made even more money than it did.

      That said, I still enjoyed TFA — but what you have portrayed here ultimately would have been far better.

        That would have gone over about as well as Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. After TFA and Blade Runner 2049, I have no desire to watch any more childhood heroes limping towards the grave. They had their time.

          1) While I hate to defend anything Kent says, that wasn’t the problem with KS by a long shot. The script was fairly terrible. HF brought his A-game to that film though.
          2) How did you watch 2049 and walk out with THAT as your take-away? Booooo!

    I think the line “This is not going to go the way you think” is Luke to Ren when they attack Ach’To and starts Luke’s path back out of the wilderness leading to him rejoining the resistance. That or it’s just during Reys training when she has a hissy fit.

    Didn’t catch the Falcon losing it’s new rectenna at first. Minor thing, but I hope this means they go back to a circular dish again – from a design/aesthetic standpoint, the Falcon is all circles, and what isn’t circles is proportioned to reflect those circles. That rectangle just sticks out like a sore thumb.

      Could be symbolic.
      The rectangle, not only to simply replace the one lost in Jedi, but as a hint this is Star Wars for a new era.
      Now our fear is aid to rest, knowing Star Wars is in good hands, the rectangle is cast off and (hopefully) replaced by a copy of the circular dish from yesteryear, showing all is good again.

      How’s that for seeking meaning in every little detail? 🙂

      He might have got an annoying scratch on one mask and have a new one on the way in the mail, which may arrive in the last five minutes of the film. I can get that as I’m similarly OCD with my glasses.
