    Or the 'Chosen 1' (Anakin) is the head of crime family like John Gotti?

    Random Thoughts:

    AL in zealer is underlined.

    Luke picture is ripped because he's no longer missing in VIII

    US priority mail "delivering a box" = Something coming within 3 days, something coming soon

    TSF, possible title acronym

    Chosen1 = crime family. As in, all the family are the same. First anakin is the attack dog of sidious, leia is seen as more of a warmonger, then ben destroys the new republic, people find out about luke being found and a new force prodigy training with him. Episode VIII might have a plot line about trying to stop luke and Rey?

    The first chinese character is sheng = life,living, lifetime, birth,

    The second character seems to be huo = to live; alive; living; work; workmanship

    Combine both characters is shēnghuó = life; activity; to live; livelihood

    Zip Zealer does sound like a star wars name.

    The one priority mail image:

    The box looks like it's upside down and taped at the bottom (which is the top).

    There's a date in the image: July 2013. Label 228.

    good catch, for a minute i thought it was a box within a box. But you are right, a priority to reveal something? considering the box is technically open, but upside down, you will reveal it's contents when lifted.

    TSF = The Sacred Force?

    By the way, the Chinese characters at the top right of the tweeted image (underneath "ZIP") means "living" and are frequently used in the context of "daily life". I suspect the message of RJ's tweet is that his life these days is all about Star Wars.

    yet Chosen1 = crime family and the priority open box have obviously been added for a reason.

    Some folks are saying this is "just a photo Rian took". Yet they are missing the obvious digital telltale signs that it's a digital composite shot.

    The red letters in the background seem to be taken from this.

    I'm not american so i only just realised the "priority mail" sticker seems to be an altered design, i can't find that exact USPS sticker on the site or google images. So they created a faux "priority" message with an open box drawn on it. Surely that means something is being revealed soon? :confused:

    Can you tell i'm desperate for VIII news? :D

    The Art of Star Wars VII says that on July 2013 - the pre-production of The Force Awakens. I have not found an interesting concept art of this month, but the first page of August this: [​IMG]

    Edit: corrected by Rieekan

    So we have luke being found, "chosen1" and now religion as a weapon. Very interesting.

    So maybe Rian is just having a troll? It seems so elaborate for a fun troll though?
