    Phasma is the anciet Greek word from which phantom is derived; a ghost or apparition. Perhaps an officer in the Empire is playing host to some invited or uninvited ghost?

    That would be the one... we do, however, know that JJ has a long history of giving nods to the fans like this... although if it is Christie, this will be his biggest nod yet... practically a bow

    I'm gonna jump on the Gwendoline Christie bandwagon here. It works in with the rumors I heard from "Spoiler Man" pretty well. Hopefully he'll offer more proof to his beliefs soon, as the information he posted was actually very promising.

    He was a fraud insofar as proving that he was related to Lucasfilm - he posted fake scripts and passed fanart as concept art.

    Captain Phasma? Really.
    Rey?
    Poe Dameron?
    Kylo Ren?
    BB-8
    Finn?

    Cross guard Lightsaber?
    Ball Droid?

    I am beginning to lose hope in this movie being better than the PT.
    This sounds very corny and kid like. I think the Disney-fication may be too much for the Star Wars Universe.

    If the movie is great and the names sound believable in-film nobody will give a toss what they read like.

    Yeah the fact that no proof has surfaced yet is troubling. He said something like "come February I'll be your best friend", so I guess I won't give up hope until then.

    Does anyone think perhaps that "Phasma" is the first name? Hmm?

    He is dead... this is just part of their weekly spotlight. They also have an article on the Tantive IV (which was vaporized when they were done)

    If it is a tribute, it's Captain Phasma, who is the daughter of Admiral Phasma... if that is what they are doing. This could be the one that "fans will get but will have no meaning to regular viewers"

    Hi all, I just wanted to ask the general feeling on these boards about the "opening of VII is a crashing Star Destroyer" theory/rumor.

    Maybe. I really don't know how its going to start I have a squence in my head but sadly I have no imput. Though if General Solo's star destroyer goes down the Falcon would make a great escape pod.

    I think the consensus a this point is one of three things:
    1. The movie opens up with Finn ditching the Empire during an operation to burn a town allegedly carrying weapons (when they aren't).
    2. The movie opens up with Finn ditching the Empire on a Star Destroyer, somehow crashing it in the process.
    3. Some combination of the above.
    Personally, I'd have to go with Door Number 3. The town-burning happens, Finn does something to give the villagers an opportunity to escape, he gets reprimanded for it back on the Star Destroyer, he realizes he's on the wrong side, and he ditches the Empire while causing as much havok as he can on his way down.
