    Well, that's... suspicious.


    Didn't read it myself on the off-chance it turned out to be real :cool:

    There is another suspicious thing I've noticed: there's a Resistance character named Captain Canady, introduced early in the script, and in TLJ imdb Page full cast listing (-> http://m.imdb.com/title/tt2527336/fullcredits/cast?ref_=m_tt_cl_sc ) there's an actor ("Mark Lewis Jones") listed as playing that character. And it's not a recent entry, I remember I've read that name long before the last days. I'm really scared now :confused:

    You can still get this 'script' on DepositFiles.

    Everybody can edit stuff on IMDB.

    This "The Last Jedi" script is fake. You just have to read real screenplays written by Rian Johnson. His writing style doesn't match with this fake script...

    It's nothing. IMDB is like Wikipedia - anyone can edit it.

    I remember that the IMDB page for Super Smash Brothers credited a voice actor playing Dio Brando (an anime character) in the game - even though such characters are explicitly forbidden from appearing in the series. As for The Last Jedi, someone credited an actor as playing someone named Nuke Skywalker in the film, which is obviously fake.

    I wasn't aware it had been around so long. So yeah, either this guy found out the title or guessed it.

    It was already fake, but that the FF.net guy actually said that he made the PDF a few weeks after it first went up provides indisputable proof that this is entirely fanmade.

    I had a thought.

    Inverted poetry

    Last thing we see in Rogue One is a father standing on a precipice in the darkness watching his daughter escape. They never see each other in that moment and Both of them unknowing and unaware of their connection. Leias escape means hope. Snatching victory out of Vaders dark.

    Last thing we see in force awakens is a father standing on a precipice in the light, watching his daughter return. They see each other in that moment and Both of them immediately aware of their connection. Reys return means Lukes mission to reestablish the Jedi can happen?

    Things that keep me awake at night.

    I swear I never would have guessed the title. I'm still not wild about them breaking the pattern by repeating "Jedi" in a title, but he felt very strongly about it, apparently.

    Both ST films have titles that have broken "patterns" or at least conventions of the other six films.




    Possible spoiler******


    The rumors about wildlife on Ahch-to intrigue me, because I don't recall any other animals in SW being sentient in any concrete way.

    The sea monster could be kind of like the Sarlacc but if it shows restraint enough to be "defeated" and allow Rey to stay, and if those gremlin/puffin things judge Rey worthy to stay because she "defeated" or killed the sea monster (the sarlacc was ancient, and if defeating the sea monster is the required test, then it could be ancient like the Sarlacc).

    If defeating the sea monster is the proof of worthy to stay, then is the sea monster more like the "watcher in the water" from the "Fellowship of the ring"---not on anyone's side, but very much sentient.

    If killing the sea monster is the proof of worth that A) is morally dicey for either the gremlin birds, Luke, the Jedi who decided that killing it was the test, and the screenwriter because you're basically killing a creature for no reason.,
    B) is an interesting wrinkle that begs the question of who's really in charge: Luke or the gremlin feather things?
    C) makes me wonder if those fanged puffins are more like those bird aliens from the gaseous planet in the Titan AE animated movie with Matt Damon, Bill Paxton, and drew Barrymore, (which incidentally is a very underrated film). I'm rooting for the birds to be like that (an unusual concept of a very advanced, sentient race of aliens that weren't humanoid) because I always thought they were awesome as heck.

    We've had mindless beasts like the sarlacc, rancor(so?), and snow beast... will these fierce owl things have a hive mind and an agenda or are they doing the bidding of Luke, force ghosts, or even long dead original Jedi...the LAST JEDI to live on that planet with the tree and temple????

    Thoughts?

    We've had some intriguing rumors but a lot of the focus here (guilty) has been title and trailer.

    Lots of interesting questions when you think of how this all fits together

    That they do. So does Wikipedia. Doesn't make either right, and it doesn't stop vandalism from happening.

    Again, given that the whole thing was posted on friggin' Fanfiction.Net should tell you that it's not real, if you couldn't already tell.

    A heck of a lot of people (and an artist as well) on shreddit correctly guessed the title last year. The title for VIII is said a couple of times in VII, that's why. It's not very original.

    Any chance that these creatures on Ach-to are force related just like that thing under the swamp at Dagobah in ESB? If so I can definitely see sort of mirroring empire just how TFA mirrored ANH. Not really in a bad or overly exaggerated way though, but rather in the sense that there is a training montage and then bad guy attack but this time in the reverse order. Instead of the bad guys attacking first, this time we'll get the training first and then the KOR attack on Ach-to.
