    I actually love the ARG stuff, I was a blogger on a LOST blog that helped cover all the clues over a few months. The worry i have for a star wars one, if true, because there is so much book content they might not be able to incorporate much into the ARG.

    I was thinking of Lost when I referred to JJ, but didn't want to say it by name because I'm not totally familiar with what they did. But yeah... the ARG's can be really cool if done right. The Star Trek one I did was amazing in the beginning... not so great in the end. I actually ended up "winning" it, which itself was very awkward and strange. Honestly, I have a hard time imagining such a thing for TFA.

    Throwaway claims to have details on "final" teaser.

    http://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsLeaks/comments/38tydu/final_teaser_details/

    "-Will debut with Inside Out.

    -All about the baddies.

    -Only dialogue is same voice from the first teaser and it sounds like it's convincing some one the dark side is stronger.

    -New, original music sounds similar to the music playing during the T Rex/I Rex fight in Jurassic World. High pitch indistinct vocals and furious choppy instrumentals.

    New footage includes furious Adam Driver unmasked, Phasma pursuing the Falcon, flame troopers, a planet being destroyed as seen from the surface of another planet, Gleeson on Sullist walking down an aisle of troopers, and finally a mocap character with green skin and robotic parts I've never seen before hooded and in a poorly lit area as the voice says "It is your destiny" to some one off camera before the music climaxes into a slowed down Imperial March and Star Wars appears on screen.

    It's pretty clear this one is advertised at the kiddos to make the bad guys look really cool."

    Also says Rey and Finn see the planet's destruction.

    Odd coincidence but MSW just posted something about maybe an October trailer. Siting TheProjectionList as showing "Teaser 2" in October: http://projectionlist.com/#/site/trailers

    It says trailer 2, indicating we will get a trailer by D23 then 2nd trailer by October. A trailer or teaser 2 already came out.

    In other words, they're just guessing. They don't have any info about it.

    Is it just me or Inside out seems to be a weird move to pair this with? If the claims are at all close to accurate of course. Won't Inside out be filled with very small kids and their bored parents? Thus not really the demographic? Am I missing something?

    Well, Attack of the Clones debuted its teaser with Monsters Inc. 6 months before release, and Revenge of the Sith debuted with the Incredibles 6 months to release, and wouldn't you know it, Pixar once again has a movie coming out 6 months prior to the release of a new Star Wars film.

    Well, that Reddit "leak" is more than likely completely fabricated. So we probably won't ever have to make sense of such a pairing.

    So the OP from the most recent reddit "I have inside info" thread gave this response to me asking if Luke is only in one scene:

    Dude's almost certainly not legit, but I have to give him/her credit for a very unusual answer to my question. And I guess it's not really worth the brain power since it's most likely bs, but I can't help trying to decode this riddle about another Jedi knowing Snoke.

    Anakin would know the name Plagueis.

    EDIT: LOL Who would "disagree" that Anakin knows the name? That's fact.

    Looking for another Jedi and you come up with a Sith, thats quite far fetched.

    No I just read what was written. So who was typing without thinking now?

    BTT: If this is true, and there is another Jedi, this could get quite interesting.

    ? I looked for another Jedi and I found one... Anakin. I believe the supposed leak I was replying to stated that a Jedi other than Luke already knows about the baddie. Unless you think the bad guy is an entombed Darth Maul or Darth Tyranus that we could say Obi-Wan knows. Plagueis makes sense in this case.

    Sorry, I should have included the part about that poster saying Snoke was not Plagueis. That's what makes it so tricky, because Plagueis would have been the most obvious answer.

    Let´s see.....the Dark Lord choose an apprentice, but he failed. But that doesn´t matter, because the Dark Lord always wanted the other one. The one who comes from a desert planet, turns to the dark side and ultimately will be redeemed.....Which trilogy am I talking about???

    Sorry, I´ve seen this story already, the main hero was called Anakin, and I hope I won´t see it again.
