    A month out from TFA and we still don't know a thing about it, even with the questionable number of TV spots it hasn't given much if anything away. Here are some things that we still don't know about TFA:

    1. Who is Snoke?

    2. Who uses the Force?

    3. Who dies?

    4. What role does Maz Kanata play and how did she end up with Lukes lightsaber (assuming she has it)?

    5. What and where is Luke?

    6. The knights of Ren?

    7. The State of the Rebellion/Resistance?

    8. Starkiller Base?

    9. Who is descended from who?

    10. Are Han and Leia Still Together

    In an interview Andy Serkis stated that the look of Snoke kept changing so I doubt that.

    I wish people would stop saying this...
    There's really quite a bit that we do know, but there's still a lot we don't.

    I think from just the trailers and interviews, no leaks, we still don't know more than we do know.

    At this point, it's worth remembering that TFA is a two-hour movie, and that unlike Peter Jackson's Tolkien films, the Star Wars movies (especially the OT) contain minimal backstory (typically only a few lines here and there).

    Expect the same level of backstory as ANH had.

    That question will not be answered in this movie.

    You're right, we don't know this. It seems that Maz does. I'd be willing to be anything that Rey does as well before the end of the movie.

    Lots of X-wing pilots (possibly including Nien Nunb).
    General Hux.
    Han Solo.

    As we know from the widely disseminated plot details, Lor San Tekka (MVS) is in possession of the lightsaber at the beginning of the film. He gives this to Poe Dameron who hides it inside BB-8. When BB-8 finally reveals what he's carrying later in the film, Han decides to take the group to Maz and seek her counsel.

    He's at an as-yet-unnamed planet with (apparently) ancient Jedi and/or Sith ruins. Skellig Michael was used to depict this location.

    We don't know. Possibly former students of Luke. They're obsessed with Vader. It seems more and more likely that their backstory will not be explained in this movie.

    The Resistance is a covert group that is (apparently) not operating under the auspices of the New Republic. They are trying to keep the First Order in check because the New Republic apparently outlawed military action against them...

    It's a Death Star rip-off, as confirmed by Abrams. A giant planet turned into a weapon capable of destroying entire star systems. All of this was confirmed by JJ Abrams himself in a recent interview.

    At this point, all signs seems to suggest that Kylo Ren is Han and Leia's son.
    Rey's parentage (and Finn's) not explicitly revealed in this movie.

    No, but they have a reunion in the film and a bittersweet farewell. It's unclear what's happened between them, but somehow their son (Kylo) turned bad. We don't know if Rey is also their offspring.

    Why can't use the Force? Because he's not Force sensitive. He's probably not Luke's son either, but even if he were I don't think parentage is always a sure measure of Force sensitivity.
    It's kind of like squibs in Harry Potter.

    Rey is definitely a force user. I think the trailers alone hint strongly at that.

    1. Who is Snoke?

    Wager Snoke is Plagueis. I'd have Snoke be Plagueis. It would give him a deeper backstory and connection to the movies already built in. Seems the best way to go to me. I don't think we'll find out until mid-8 or even episode 9.

    2. Who uses the Force?

    Wager at least Rey. Maybe the scene after she first uses the Force will be the "there has been an awakening" dialogue? Also definitley wager Luke. Not sure about Finn; might have to wait until episode 8 for Finn.

    3. Who dies?

    Of the main heroes? I'd bet no one dies. A bunch of others.

    4. What role does Maz Kanata play and how did she end up with Lukes lightsaber (assuming she has it)?

    No bets.

    5. What and where is Luke?

    Wager Luke the Jedi is doing something important in seclusion. Shows up for last quarter of movie.

    6. The knights of Ren?

    No bets.

    7. The State of the Rebellion/Resistance?

    No bets.

    8. Starkiller Base?

    Planet Death Star.

    9. Who is descended from who?

    Wager Kylo from Han and Leia. Rey maybe from Han and Leia, but would bet from no one we know. Finn from no one we know.

    10. Are Han and Leia Still Together

    Wager still together.

    I forgot who said it, but one of the rumors is that there are multiple Death Star-Type stations, but The Starkiller Base IS THE ULTIMATE weapon .
