WELLLLLLLL, Luke does go to the Dark side, goes back to being a Jedi, he has twins, one of them does the same thing, and the family tradition continues. But since all that shit is non-canon who knows what the fuck Luke is up to.

Han Solo, Chewie, Rey, and Finn join forces to find Luke because of the growing presence of the dark side of the force, represented by Kylo and the First Order. Luke trains Finn after discovering that he is force sensitive. No one is related to anyone. It's a reboot of the franchise but with a different story line.

Let's hope there is no discussion of politics in the films. We had enough of that from the prequels.

I viewed all films to get caught up for this one and the dialogue is atrocious when it comes to politics. Not finesse or style.

senate
sovereign
senator
chancellor
no confidence
bureaucrat

These words are just peppered on the script.
The politics I don't mind so much but i almost walked out of the theater 15 or so years ago when Qui Gon started giving Anakin a blood test......I like the Force to be more mysterious than being reserved for only those who have special microbes in their bodies.

that two minutes - blew the prequels away.

Love the dark tone Abrams took, the scenery is glorious, The dog fights over water and snow (possibly a return to hoth), Light sabers in the rain and the fight at night in the woods with it snowing.


It looks glorious and the score is the Star wars theme but a sadder darker version of it with a glimmer of hope at the end.

It will be amazing.

You watch this trailer vs.the episode 1 trailer and you will see how much a difference JJ abrams made. It's there is so much more emotion in the images and the music that is played on the screen, the trailer is just so damn awesome. I have geeked out majorly, seen it at least a billion times. A big part is the score is just so damn powerful!!!

By far the best trailer released all year.

But I must say that the third trailer had too much action for my personal tastes but I suppose he had to add the action to avoid any revelation of the plot. Guys liked the action scenes more because guys like to play video games, whereas women focus more on the story line and character development. But I must say that I am very impressed with the Kylo Ren villain. There will be a lot of depth in his character and we will probably see that throughout the trilogy.

yeah, especially since we are unsure of who he is and where he comes from.

they attempted to add form mystery to Darth Maul at the end of episode 1, but it was just a morsel.

Paranormal Activity was creepy but a bit lacking for a finale.
