    So THATS what the other side of Tatooine looks like. I've always wondered.

    Ok, to me it doesn´t look like a crater by a meteroid, for example. More like a blast radius or a pierce damage. Maybe a weaker form of a superweapon?

    The "hole" could be anything, the planet is so smudgy with atmosphere it is impossible to say. Assuming it is supposed to be anything, I would say it is the shadow of a moon (although there's no other sign of one), or simply a storm cloud or similar.

    Three suns.

    Your argument is invalid.

    Are you saying that Tatooine now has three suns?

    This poster is essentially depicting three different screenshots. Those are not three different suns.

    The suns are likely there for artistic effect. Look at how many light sources there are in his other posters:

    The guy could give J. J. Abrams a run for his money in this department.

    Hard to say. I could quibble and say the ones on the new poster are more "sun like." But I don't know. Either way, it's not depicting Tatooine.

    :cool: <-- Shielded from the triple suns

    Furthermore, Tatooine's suns are close together and are varied in their color. These three light sources are pretty distant from each other and they all look the same.

    Lens glare/flare? Looks like you can see half of the circle covering up the front of the moisture vaporator.[​IMG]

    Cassidy, you are right. This poster says it all. It's useless to keep talking about it with people who on't see the evidence. They could put the new luggabeast in the poster, instead, they put a moisture vaporator and two suns.

    People, you are blind.

    Blind? Pull up any screenshot of Tatooine's two suns and compare it to what you see here. Any screenshot at all. Does the coloring seem the same? Do the positions relative to each other seem the same? Add to that the fact that there are *three* suns depicted here.

    There are three scenes depicted here and the effect here is that the sun is setting. We see it overhead, we see it closer to the horizon, and we see it on the horizon.

    Edited - phrasing.
