Jake Lloyd was arrested after a high speed pursuit. Have nerds ruined yet another life?

Indeed, that opening shot is new. Really nice little tidbit there.

I didn't see anything new.

Oh yea that 1 sec behind Kylo shot is new.

The first shot is a revese of the stormtrooper/parade shot from the second trailer, looking out at the collected troops from the leader stage...as opposed to the other way.

You can also see some sort of spider tanks/walkers in the background next to/behind the lined up Tie Fighters.

Rogue One has announced its cast and it's fucking incredible.


Also the guy who directed Jurassic World will be doing Episode IX.

That is seriously impressive. Devils on the Doorstep is one of the all time great WW2 movies and that dude is amazing.

I hope not. Is photobucket known for that? I ll delete my account if it is

Not at all, I was just suspicious of your post and your link because I've been scammed like that before by people's post that seemed really legitimate.

So I was just being skeptical and cautious.

Tickets booked for Secret Cinema.

Looks awesome, an 18 acre site of star wars set replica, with a screening of Empire Strikes Back.

Can't wait. If you're in the uk you should really check it out.

But shhh. It's a secret.

Some hype for y'all:

So something has popped up rumour-wise that has me curious.

We don't know who Max Von Sydow is playing. I've always assumed he was going to be a Sith, possibly Plagueis...but what if he's a good guy?

A bit of the rumours goes that Von Sydow's character is an old junker human with cybernetic implants who Rey's character on Jackku sells shit too. He's lost his marbles and seems like no one. But when Rey shows up (possibly with Finn in tow) with Luke's (or someone elses) lightsaber (possibly Vader's red one?) and shows it to him, he become lucid and begins babbling about the old days.

So...what if he's Kanan Jarrus from REBELS? Von Sydow's age is within a decade of being correct for how old Kanan would be in TFA. What if Kanan lost Ezra to Vader and as a result of that trauma lost his marbles completely (and possibly some limbs; cybernetic implants), and ended up in hiding on a planet full of old junk?

It's certainly a possibility.

So if I have to guess I think Von Sydow is either Plagueis or Kanan. There HAS to be a reason that JJ and Co have kept ALL info about who he's playing from us...it's because we'd recognize him.

EDIT: From Making Star Wars:

"Max von Sydow character is Star Wars: Episode VII is not an ancient Sith Lord or a supernatural being with an awesome voice. He’s a beaten man. He’s old enough to have lived through the Clone Wars, seen the Intergalactic Civil War unfold and then the aftermath of the fall of Emperor Palptaine. He’s no longer a man, he’s a cyborg. His eye is obscured by a ocular viewing device, most likely from a past injury which mean the could no longer use the eye with any ease. One leg is entirely cybernetic now, almost like a Super Battledroid but with metallic claws where his toes would be. He sits at a bar drinking, wary, and old. If you have an oddity, a rare weapon, you might want to bring it to him for evaluation."

Sounds like Kanan to me.

Strange they give clip instead of giving us trailer 3.

Preeeeetty sure it's a cut down tease from the full trailer, which is supposed to be dropping soon.


Still, I"m curious about Finn's saber...the bottom looks like Anakin's/Luke's...but the top has a bit of hardware above the hilt which Luke's never had.

Wait, I thought it was the woman who was supposed to be the jedi?

I think they both will be Jedi. Luke's going to neee numbers at his future Academy.

And in the concept art from later in the film Rey is seen holding a lightsaber too.

And I'd put down god money on Leia wielding one too, or at least learning to do so. Can't let the Skywalker force-strong-blood go to waste.
