But since all is old themes...I doubt it. Right, like we got what was apparently a trailer-ized version of "The Spark" for TLJ, although we had no idea until the film came out: In this trailer, the only thing I could maybe imagine being based on a new JW piece is this melody: Played more prominently here: Definitely based on the Force theme but not quite identical - theoretically possible that JW wrote a new "end of saga" theme based on the Force theme and that's what we're hearing here (in trailer-ized form).

Matt C 455 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 When I first saw the final shot of Rey in the D23 footage, I thought, "Is that Keri Russell?" Seriously, it would be cool if Russell was playing a Sith character instead. The new poster looks fine too. I'm not too fussy about things.

Who knows. I think it's just a slight variation on the Force Theme by some trailer composer, in the same way the end of the first trailer was just an abridged version of Kylo Ren's A theme. If we're going to hear a hint of Williams music, it'll be in the final trailer. I do love that slowed down version of Yoda's Theme though, works really well.

I think his comments come off as genuine enthusiasm, at least insofar as the fun interplay of the characters go. I thought that was the best part of TFA and mostly missing from TLJ. So, it is nice that it is coming back. Does it make up for a complete lack of interesting ST story? well, that is a different conversation, i suppose.

mstrox 6,651 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 My completely boring white-bread take is that after losing her own saber, she takes a weird saber from a defeated Knight of Ren and is sneaking somewhere in their cloak. I don't see a road to a satisfactory "ending of the saga" that involves a legitimate heel-turn from Rey. I'm excited, like the poster and the footage, but I find myself not wanting to know more before the movie. I'm sure I'll watch whatever final theatrical trailer they cobble together before then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
