    Just curious. Is this coming from hope or insider information?

    It's an educated guess based on what they've recently revealed at SWCO and what they still have yet to show. It's not based on anything I've heard as of late.

    Although I will tell you that there's no way that they won't do anything on May 25. Even if it's just a self-congratulatory YouTube video, Lucasfilm will celebrate the occasion.

    They didn't really celebrate May 4 because May 25 was just around the corner.

    May 4 is a fan holiday that exists only because of puns. May 25 is a milestone anniversary for a long-running franchise. Ask yourself - as a Disney executive overseeing the development of many Star Wars projects at once, and knowing that both dates are going to net you free coverage from the blogosphere, which one would you be more likely to make a big deal out of?

    Lets wait and see, I'm not convinced at all. But I'll keep an eye out for that date. Thanks man.

    You mean, have I heard anything? No. But again - there's free publicity to be had, and it's entirely the good kind.

    I'm sure they are well aware of that so releasing even the tiniest bit of information will make us go crazy

    Take it with a mountain of Himalayan pink salt. In a mail bag question about their best scoops they've ever received, Campea from Collider is claiming to have the "scoop of scoops" for Episode VIII but won't say anything.

    Very divisive... Campea isn't a dick Harloff is. But John... why bring it up? I love Man of Steal, BvS, and SS so John is my goto man because we like the same films mostly he didn't like Arrival but thats ok.

    Yeah...why? There was discussion about something similar happening here recently. It's like saying, "look what I have that you don't have?!"

    Hmmm. I thought the Collider folks didn't like to delve too deep into spoiler territory, no?

    Also, I'm a bit skeptical, especially after the Snoke fiasco from just before TFA.

    This is the exclusive image posted by the Hollywood Reporter from the movie "Ophelia" where Daisy plays as the lead, and Twitter users immediately pointed out it looked a lot like Carrie Fisher in ROTJ:

    I'd really love to think that Thursday will be a big news day to coincide with the anniversary, but who knows. It seems obvious to drop something then, but I've felt that way before only to see other occasions come and go with little or no news. My hopes are always high, but with Disney's track record of sporadic releases and full-on missed opportunities, color me skeptical. Maybe that's what they want; to keep us guessing.
