Deep Depth Analysis Of The Teaser

Anyone know if the Acolytes of the Beyond are all Human? That's not a human hand in the second shot, but that group would have an interest in an artifact like that.

 

Uh... what? Leia is a Skywalker...where else does he get his power from? Again his last name is irrelevant.

 

Sorry, but I respectfully disagree. Leia may have Skywalker blood, but she's not a Skywalker. There's is no way they are having a title about someone that doesn't use the name. That would be just dumb. It would be like writing a book about me but using my mother's maiden name. It makes no sense.

 

I think the fur is actually part of a jacket shoulder and not part of the hand.

 

to be fair they made Solo and that wasn't his name...

 

Surnames are a patriarcal convention. In the galaxy far away force lineage is more democratic than that... or so I prefer to believe.

Some peeps are saying that whoever is repairing the helmet may be human wearing a fury coat...

 

I agree based upon the first picture but as the camera pulls away you see the persons right hand and it doesn’t look human to me.

 

interesting..

i don't know about that, but one can hope.. there's always hope !

that last image of R2 and the ice-cream cone on one wheel... i can see where they are going, but it's a bit of a stretch that it's Alien A from the concept art.

p.s. does this thread need a spoiler tag on the title now that it includes those photos @NinjaRen ?

 

it was a deliberate mistake bro.. i have decided that R2 was in the teaser, and that the beach ball was not

i agree, but i mentioned it because you know how some members are about seeing stuff that comes from reddit lol

 

In the last few episodes of The Clone Wars, Yoda is contacted by the disembodied voice of Qui-Gon and sent on a quest to learn more about The Force. Along the way he meets five Force Priestesses who teach and challenge him. Eventually he is tested by the spirit of Darth Bane (voiced by Mark Hamill).

I don't think Palpatine will be back in a body, but I could see Rey going through some sort of test where she is instructed by Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Luke then eventually tempted by the spirit of Palpatine.

That is just my guess.

 

It may be a distraction. I believed him, or want to believe, when he said that this was "just a teaser", and that JJ likes to tease.

I also think Palpatine being the end goal of the ST would be a bit disappointing, since his arc seemed complete in VI. He may well be behind a crucial part of what happens in the ST, with the contingency plan, the battle of Jakku and whatever he feared or was seeking in the unknown regions, sure. However, that probably just sets the stage for what is coming in IX.

I suspect we're heading to a big surprise. Star Wars was always about big surprises and reveals, so my gut tells me that Palpatine is part of the equation but not the main plot point of IX. He could be involved in that big surprise, and have a more direct or indirect role, sure, but I believe there's something more.

 

She’s never been referred to as Skywalker. Neither has Ben. They would never make a title about a character that doesn’t share that name. These movies are made for larger audiences than us fans. The Skywalker in the title will be someone we’ve actuallly called Skywalker or a new Skywalker. Not someone in the lineage. If that’s the case then maybe it’s about Threepio since he was created by Anakin Skywalker. Or maybe it’s about Padmé since she’s a Skywalker by marriage.

I’m sticking with Luke, Anakin, Rey taking the Skywalker name, or Skywalker being the new name synonymous with Jedi.

 

Luke refers to Ben as that mighty Skywalker blood. Han says he has to much Vader in him.

 

But I'm not arguing if he's a "Skywalker" by bloodline or lineage. I'm arguing he's not called Skywalker in ANYTHING. Nobody calls him Ben Skywalker. Snoke calls him Young SOLO! Rey says "Ben Solo will turn". He has his own identity. The guys name is Ben Solo. Why in the world would you make a title about Ben Solo and call it The Rise of Skywalker? You'd call it The Rise of Solo if you are talking about Ben's redemption.

Here's my point. Ben's redemption on its own would not allow for this title. It simply doesn't make sense. You need an actual Skywalker BY NAME for this title to work.

Return of the Jedi <----Luke's "I am a Jedi" moment and Anakin's return from the dark side make this title work. Double meaning.

The Rise of Skywalker <----Luke's return from death? Anakin's return from death? Rey's taking on the name and training new Skywalker Jedi? Rey an actual Skywalker?

These are basically the same title and will probably have a double meaning as well.

 

I mean... you do have a point here. He does have Skywalker blood but he is never referred to as Skywalker. But if the Bendemption happens (and I'm not saying it will or should) couldn't he presumably become one of the Jedi of the Skywalker Order?

 

If there is a Skywalker Order and he's apart of it, yes it works. If it's just Ben Solo returning from the Dark Side, I don't think it works.
