IMAX-exclusive poster for TLJ:

I really liked the ones Dan Mumford did for TFA. I'll probably try and get my hands on this as well, though there isn't an IMAX cinema near me.
The theatrical poster's better than I was expecting. Much better than TFA's.
I still have the Rey/BB-8 overlooking the star destroyer one as my background. Gunna change to this new one

Seeing the double bill - both 70mm.

I'm betting Kylo.
Speaking of, the heavy focus on Kylo in the trailer sorta deflated it for me. I'm just not impressed with him.
A porg will lose its wings protecting someone from a lightsaber.

Got me more hyped. He's the best villain we've had in a SW film to date.

Driver's my favourite actor out of the new cast and I liked Kylo a lot in TFA so I was pleasantly surprised he featured so heavily. Johnson's said how much he enjoys writing him and it shows.

I like Driver a lot as an actor but I just can't shake the feeling that he's woefully miscast here. Dude simply isn't intimidating.

Look I know Vader is the most iconic, but let's be real, he was a scary dude in a black mask for ANH and ESB, barely a character. Ben actually had an arc start for him in TFA that hopefully carries through.
Finally, some wisdom here.

I wouldn't say Kylo's intimidating in the same way as Vader - he's not really meant to be - but I can't think of anyone else I'd prefer in the role. He's intimidating when he's hunting down Rey on Takodana and when he interrogates her afterwards. But he also has the acting chops to sell the more emotional material like his scene with Han.
I love Driver as Kylo.
That fuckin' babyface is perfect in that it's almost a poodle puppy yearning to be a wolf. He shouldn't be, and ultimately can't but goddamn he's trying so hard for all the wrong reasons. He's the best character in this series so far and Driver is perfect for him.

It definitely sounded like a fucking Pokemon in the trailer.

"Porg, I choose you!"
That was pretty much the only big spoiler in the trailer
They really didn't reveal to much honestly. Entire locations were absent. Probably the second act of the film was MIA

Yeah, was pretty surprised at there being no Canto Bight action.

If it was actually happening, and not a force vision.

People probably said this back for TPM. Who is on the right side of history now?
I expect that they meet. She has a confrontation with Kyle, after beeing rejected by Luke, they befriend each other, because he offers her to learn more about the force, they go to Snoke, she gets seduced by the dark side, gets a bit force tortured, so that GAF can make a Return of the Jedi Remake comparison

You don't need to spoiler tag speculation mate. I doubt there's anyone in here that hasn't watched the trailer anyway.

Full of Sith's Trailer Council is up with Bobby, Breznican and co.
No idea. I got the days people yelling at me with talking about a certain Blade Runner discussion that is 30 years old, so I am right now even spoilertagging
Cause there could be backwards people from the woods who never seen these most famous movies.
that Luke is the son of Darth Vader

I wanna avoid any and all spoilers/leaks from this point on, but I need to know what the fuck Luke does in this movie. It's such a fine balance.

That's their problem, not yours. Goddamn spoiler culture.
This made me laugh.
That's hilarious, spoiler culture is so weird and oddly specific and ever-changing depending on the media.
I know, right? Its such a bullshit. I would never intentionally ruin a new movie for someone, or a movie that relys on a twist, unless its the movie in which Bruce Willis
, cause its the most famous twist right after
, but at some point a movie is so old that its fine to talk open about it. I always wonder how these people converse with other people, if they jump out of the room when people talk about movies that are older then theyself.
Then again, its totally cool to talk about things like the
in discussions about Final Fantasy.
The best was one guy, who wanted to completly without any information about 2049 into the movie and acted like I ruined the actual movie. No idea how big Deckards part in 2049 is, if the plot revolves
and I also dont want to know it, but it was hilarious seeing that guy ranting around.
Fuck that noise. I dont care. Your loss.
The best thing was, when I once said that the spaceship in Event Horizont
and THIS IS PRINTED ON THE FUCKING BACKSIDE OF THE DVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and everyone freaked out.
is a ghost
Lukes father beeing Darth Vader
Then again, its totally cool to talk about things like the
death of Aeris
