Star Wars VII Discussion Thread (was: Star Wars new trailer)

I though EU was out completely?

cheers

EU has ALWAYS been out.  It's never been "canon" (at least not in the way that counted - George Canon - aka "G-canon" - which was limited to 6 movies, TCW and rebels).  Not that it can't become canon, but if it wasn't in TCW/Rebels or the 6 other movies, it isn't considered "movie canon".  There is stuff that WAS EU that is NOW canon, though ... so there's hope for that "legends" stuff, yet.  

The planet isn't a death star (moon sized weapon) so much as a weapons system built INTO a planet.  No pesky thermal exhaust port to worry about, or central reactor.

Seeing that huge Trench in the Starkiller Base i wouldn't be so confident

The shot of the girl crying/angry over a body, one question, is that Luke laying there? not the best screen cap. Could this be the Ben Kenobi moment

In the opening scene I thought that was a teenage mutant ninja turtle

There's a very persistent rumor that's Chewbacca  .

[cyagen]

Been thinking about it for a while and it may well be that Luke is already dead and only appears as a spirit to whatever the Jedi is in the new films.

So far the only shots of Luke that I've seen where in front of a blue screen....

I hope I'm not right and that we'll see him in full master Jedi mode, open a can of whoop@$$ on the first order...

There's an even more persistent rumour it is Han Solo who is killed off. Its all over the internet today....

Why not even great old heroes die one day!
I always like Chewies death in the Vong war, noble and fitting scarifies!
Only how Han reacted afterwards drove me nuts!

[FramFramson]

I wouldn't trust any rumour about character death or identity - remember in the original trilogy they filmed fake scenes and dialogue just to keep rumours secret. If anyone's going to pull that again, it'd be a Star Wars director.

[Cubs]

The rumpled cloth is a clue in that photo. She has clearly mixed her dark wash and whites wash and her work shirt has come out a dirty grey colour. It's how I react.

[Elbows]

^This, and the split ends...all those split ends.  It's enough to drive you to tears.

[BlackWidowPilot]

To Hell with the rumors, and who give's a womp rat's ass about split ends or what Luke Skywalker will be wearing on the red carpet?! Release the movie already before I go completely barking mad!

Awesome trailer. I found out our department's christmas party is a private screening of this movie the day before it is released in our country! (BTW I work in a IT department)
