Seth 67 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I don't remember TFA getting this kind of warning before it was rated. To be fair, though, TLJ does look like it will be more intense, comparatively speaking. Regarding the trailer, I found myself wondering if it is intentionally misleading. Surely Rian Johnson and whoever edited the trailer didn't mean to give away what appear to be major plot points. I will say that the look and tone the trailer points to made me wish Johnson was returning for the finale. I don't think it will be boring in any sense.

Yeah, there's actually a recent interview with Johnson where he said that he sat down with the marketing people and told them what was off-limits for the trailer. So presumably the big secrets are still totally secret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually ignore what actors say about movies they are in, but I am starting to believe the Star Wars actors who have said this one is different, shocking, etc. For some reason I don't think they're blowing smoke. crumbs, James and Will 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John 2,032 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 http://screenrant.com/star-wars-8-last-jedi-snoke-backstory-andy-serkis/ Good. Snoke was cool-looking and all in TFA, but you couldn't shake the feeling that JJ had no clue where he was going with the character, other than making a new Force-sensitive villain clearly under the Palpatine-archtype. I trust that Johnson has created a compelling backstory for the character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holko 9,400 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 There are some semi-obscure leaks/rumors about Snoke so be cautious, potential HUGE spoilers, all I'm gonna say is it would be a very interesting direction to go with him: Spoiler Snoke is possibly an ancient Sith lord from the Old Republic, and he's going to be a tie-in to a new series/franchise that takes place in that time period. As that is one of my favourite periods from the old canon, I'd love this to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Quote The character of Snoke, played by mo-cap genius Serkis of Lord of the Rings and Planet of the Apes fame, was first introduced in one of the most mysterious and riveting scenes of J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Riveting? Really? The Red Letter Media satire hits so close to mark. Snoke looks like an undead Hugh Hefner.

Snoke looks like an undead Hugh Hefner. True. In The Force Awakens Snoke is an inappropriate-exposition-delivery device. Because why create a dramatic reveal when you can just say: "hey, apprentice with which I appearantly talk frequently, I'll just casually mention that Han Solo is your father, just in case you forgot, alright?"

Will 2,215 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Star Tours: The Adventures Continue to introduce Star Wars: The Last Jedi’s Crait on November 17th, 2017? You may recall that TFA's Jakku Star Tours scene used "The Falcon" (although we weren't sure it was JW at the time, of course). So unless we get something from a TV spot, this could well be our first listen to JW's score!
