    For those who didn't see the vid before it was pulled down, you can see the screenshots here

    My opinion? I was on the fence, right up to the point YouTube yanked it... as noted in the linked article, that gives it some credence... and I do agree with that author, if anything it is probably test footage

    (and thanks to Echo for giving this some room to play out)

    Heh, we all tend to get very paranoid these days when it involves possible spoilers. :D

    Trust me guys, this video is fake. No test footage, nothing. (dark)

    Agreed! I couldn't imagine Disney even "testing" anything that looked like that. The robe alone was telling.

    Disagree strongly... look at the video where Kenobi first appears in Episode IV... over sized and floppy, and eerily similar to the one in this video

    If Luke's codename in the scene "OW" was meant to be "old wizard", it is a fairly good match

    Again, the fact that it got yanked is the biggest support of it being real

    For me it's not the over-sized and floppy, it's the cheap-looking material and the fact that it's hemmed around the rim of the hood. Looks very unprofessional IMO.

    I'm not making assumptions. I got a confirmation that it's fake. We just have to move along. :)

    was referring more to this one

    [​IMG]

    when seen in motion (sadly we can't anymore) it was very reminiscent of the Ep IV look...

    I agree... it is a long shot... and I was leaning to it being a fan who visited the island post-filming... right up to the point YouTube yanked it

    Let's see if they go after the images on tecnhobuffalo

    Well... not knowing what your source is, but knowing that you are am admin and not likely to make such a statement without being pretty darn sure... that is (as they say) that...

    (no chance you can clue us on the source? ;))

    If I tell you, I have to kill you and me both. (pwned)

    But you're right, I wasn't going to post this if I wasn't sure. :)

    Blast! Fake or not, I would have liked to have seen the footage while it was still up. Nonetheless, this is an interesting find.

    Well Viral says he has confirmation on that, too... and honestly, I was skeptical (as I have said) right up to the point it was terminated
