The Basic Plot of The Rise of Skywalker, Updated and Expanded: Act I (Via JediPaxis)

This post got me a neg?

Wow

 

The person might be lying, but by now lots of people have seen the final film. The cast/crew and probably their families. The film has a rating so that means it's been seen by the review board. It's out there and it's not beyond possibility at this stage that it could be leaked.

 

And, just to add - and I can't possibly claim to have insight into how many people may have seen the film and would be willing to spill the beans all over the web - it doesn't matter, the proof is in the pudding.
The plot of every prequel movie leaked.
The last Star Wars movie JJ directed - the F-ing call sheets from the actual production were being passed around several websites months before the release date.

Does that mean the JP stuff is gospel?
Well, no - but he's been right on the money so far.
(Space horses riding into battle atop a Star Destroyer - I ask you...)
The new stuff JP's just added? As he's already admitted himself, he can't verify any of it, he's just putting it out there.
I don't get why people have so much faith in all this secrecy and non-disclosure agreement stuff, given the historical facts clearly say otherwise - it's kind of failed miserably so far with regards to Star Wars movies in a pretty consistent way for the past 20 years. That is just self-evident.

 

Poo-Doo dude, I guess with the information so locked down anything that made it past that gauntlet of litigation would be called a “leak” right?

 

I’m not sure what to make of the new JP info. Overall his original stuff seems to be pretty accurate (as accurate as leaks like this can be) but the new stuff just doesn’t feel right. We will find out soon enough

Some context about the Burger King "spoilers" credit to Reddit for finding the link:

"As Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker launches on December 18th, Burger King Germany is offering free Whoppers to fans... for a price.

Fans who are prepared to read spoilers for the films out loud before the premiere will be rewarded with a flame-grilled Whopper. For the first time, Burger King is using voice recognition in its app to activate the promotional coupon.

Using the Burger King app and voice recognition, guests can get involved by reading spoilers out loud. The app checks the content and the guest gets the exclusive voice-controlled coupon from.
The online film for the campaign was shot in a specially designed spoiler restaurant, to which Burger King invited true Star Wars fans. The entire restaurant and all the products contained revealing hints. Every product name on the menu board, every name tag, straws, fries and even the WiFi password contained spoilers. The product packaging also had hidden spoilers, some of which were rendered by a sound chip while opening the pack.

“Although this time the WHOPPER demands a galactically high price, it is definitely worth it. Using modern voice recognition, integrated in our app for the first time, we are offering guests entertaining added value,” explains Klaus Schmäing, director marketing at BURGER KING Deutschland GmbH. “BURGER KING welcomes fans of the science fiction adventure back to Earth with immediate effect – in this spirit, may the WHOPPER be with you.""

So it clear they had to get approval from Disney to do this.

 

Looks like the "Oracle" leak was pretty close to the actual design...

 

It sure does. I think that it appears that the Oracle is no longer being used in the movie as there has not been much reported in it lately but at the time it was appears to be a very legitimate leak

 

Yeah, everyone seems to agree it has been cut.
It did appear in the leaked merchandising sheet too, but then, Constable Zuvio was being marketed a fair bit and even had a figure made, and look what happened to him...

Also - more Ewoks. Token appearance in an end celebration, or do they have a bigger role...?

 

Though according to JP, he says it's been cut.

 

I'm kinda disappointed about the Oracle being cut. It was so mysterious, so Star Warsy. I would have liked watching Kylo interact with it.

 

Is it weird that they made a prop for it though?

 

Why? It was filmed (so, the prop was still needed), but then abandoned in the editing room. A lot of stuff will end up on the editing floor.

Remember they probably have several hours of content. We are "just getting" two hours (hopefully the best parts) of that.

 

@Get In Gear great catch

I still hope it’s there... it’s so interestingly weird

 

Well the Burger King stunt thickens.

 

I usually don't want movies spoiled, so I still take some of the JP leaks with a grain of salt, even though the trailers confirm most of the leaks. I think Jedi Paxis and Jason Ward most likely have 80 to 85 percent of the plot leaks correct, it's the context, character interactions and dialogue as well as the emotional score from John Williams that will make TROS great to awesome. I think the reason I have this weird curosity for wanting to know the leaks for this sequel trilogy verses any other movie franchise is that I hold the Star Wars franchise to my heart, like Gollum holds the Ring, as his PRECIOUS. I just want to prepare myself before going to the movie on how it will go, so that I don't get so dissapointed or disillsioned that I walk away from Star Wars, as Luke did with the force and the Jedi. There are choices in this sequel trilogy, I'm not sure I agree with as of yet, I don't want to make a full judgement until I see The Rise of Skywalker. Once I see TROS then I can judge on how this sequel trilogy fits in with the overall narative of the Skywalker saga. Don't get me wrong, there is alot in this sequel trilogy, that I adore and love. I just hard to reflect on how this sequel trilogy fits when we only in the middle of it and we have not seen its conclusion. I just really hope that if the Jedi Paxis leaks are true, then I truly hope it is one of those things that you have to see on screen, rather then to read it, to get the satisfied ending to this saga. We will see.

I remember when I first saw The Phantom Menace. I walked away from my fist screening, bewildered, I wasn't sure I liked the movie or not. I saw it theaters 4 times in 1999. I liked the movie overall but because I went in with such unimaginable expectations that no film could ever meet it. It though me for a loop that it didn't meet those expectations. I think I just didn't want to get shocked and walk away not liking a STAR WAR, that I now kind want to know what I am getting my self in before I see it.

In regards to the watching the Mandalorian, I don't know what is going to happen, week to week; therefore I am enjoying the surprise. I always thought that Pedro Pascal was only doing the voice and it was a different actor in the suit, much like the way of Darth Vader. I feel bad that actor doing all the physical work of the Mandalorian is not getting his praise. Pedro is killing it as Mando's voice and (I'm sure some acting in the suit) but his body double, Brandon Wayne, is killing it with his body language and stunt work. Together they make an awesome character. Sorry to go off tangent. Stay on Target---The Rise of Skywalker--Crossing fingers that this will be the ending that we are all looking for as fans, and that the leaks are only true, from a certain point of view. (Sorry, I had to go there).

 

I am with you on that. I went in thinking/expecting TPM to be A New Hope. No film is ever going to be that. To quote the Highlander, there can be only one. Once I saw it I realized it was a fun film, a good set up for what would come and wasn't trying to be IV. At that point I enjoyed it. Saw it like I don't know, probably 10 times in the cinema. I was just super excited to get another Star Wars trilogy.

As for TROS, I really do hope that, in the execution, the film rocks. I'll admit, I'm nervous as heck. But I'm obviously willing to give it a chance. Go in with an open mind and see what happens.

 

Paxis: ... He [Kylo] discovers an elevator leading down below the planet's surface. He follows the lift down.
As Kylo descends, he passes by giant statues.




One of MSW's "tanks full of Snokes"? Hard to say...

 

I have to say, the latest trailer, with Kylo, the Tie fighter (is that a Tie Fighter?)... it looks bad ass. I hope the rest of the film is as bad ass as that clip looks.

 

Exactly my thoughts too. I went from a meh some of it looks cool but some of the leaks look kind lame so let’s get it over with attitude to a well well what have we here maybe this is going to be good after all. I love it.
