@Nepia said in Star Wars VII ****contains spoilers****:
@MN5 The Force Awakens is like Star Wars: The Younger Years with a younger version of Vader and Tarkin ... clearly thats what those two would have been like in the early days of the Empire.
Another good point but one gets the feeling the old boys woulda had a bit more presence but fuck me days the whole Snoke/Ren/Hux being a direct 'homage' ( to put it nicely ) to Palpatine/Vader/Tarkin is pretty damning. As always I'll have massive hopes for number 8 though.

I don't disagree, but I think we'll see some bad arsery from the in the darker 'Empire' version (although, are Disney up for two dark Star Wars movies in a row?)

I'd like to think the respective receptions for TFA vs RO would indicates yes.

Deleted scene involving Chewy..
Crap scene IMHO. Not sure how a tub of lard like that could get the jump on Rey then defy the laws of physics in losing an arm to Chewie. I assume his species is really brittle?
The worst thing would be that tub of lard getting the jump on her, but shortly thereafter she beats the shit out of a Sith warrior.
Dude, he's a Knight of Ren. Get it right.
#nerdalert
Your point still stands though
No it doesn't. She beat a severely injured, half trained Non-Sith. One injured by a gun they spent the whole movie showing how powerful it was.
Talk him up all you want. Kylo Ren has a lot of work to do to in the next flick to persuade me he's not a big raving pussy.
Indeed. You'd imagine even a crippled Empire Luke could put up a better fight than that. Regardless, it would have been a bad look if Rey had been done over so easily by Fat Arse yet then proceeded to kick Rens hipster, jug eared arse.

Went and saw it again last night. Still a heap of fun.
Some really great shots as well

SW VIII has a name .......... "The Last Jedi"
Out in December this year too! What a time to be alive, that's fucken three in THREE years after a horrible 16 year hiatus between 83 and 99.
Some might argue 2002 as AOTC was a much better flick overall.

I hope they're referring to Luke. If it's a reference to Rey and Luke gets knocked off in this film I will farking bomb Disney Land (after hours of course).

It definitely will be Luke. I like the name, better than the Force Awakens, has a nice B Movie feel to it.
As much I liked Rogue One, I much prefer the saga films with Jedis and lightsabers.

Luke's gonna die isn't he? Han's dead. Leia is dead. Luke's next. Leaving only Chewie
And he's still not going to get to captain the Falcon.

Leia isn't dead in the movies

I hope they aren't that predictable, although they probably have kill Leia in Episode 9 now.

She'll end up like Yoda and the Emperor. Referenced without actually being on screen

Its just an opportunity for them to shoehorn in another kickass female character.. because women can do anything.. Darthreta Organa

There's a couple of decent female warriors in the EU or so my boys tell me. Asaaj Ventress and Komari Vosa to name a couple although they might be Dark Jedi as opposed to Sith?

And as someone online pointed out, the last Jedi could be plural.
Yep, Rey or someone else could also be a Jedi. The red logo may suggest a darker theme.
Of course, they could be predictable:
