Star Wars surprise:

[DemonGeminiX]

So now the fanboys are arguing all over the internet about who is speaking the overdub in the latest trailer (#2)...


It's almost a word for word reproduction of Luke's lines from Return of the Jedi...others say it's his son saying the lines.

It's Luke, and it is word for word what he said to Leia in Jedi on Endor before he left to go face Vader, except for the very last line.

All the fanboys that I'm reading online are arguing about the saber being handed over, whether it's Luke's or Vader's.

That partially buried decrepit looking Star Destroyer is as cool as Hoth.

[Muddy]

Who is the brother?

[DemonGeminiX]

According to IMDB, the actor's name is John Boyega and he's playing a character named Finn.

All the fanboys that I'm reading online are arguing about the saber being handed over, whether it's Luke's or Vader's.

The arguments I read about the trailer voiceover are because of the tense used in one line ..."My father has it"...

I don't think some of the younger fans realize that when Luke was saying this to Leia, Vader was alive and coming for their confrontation.

Still, maybe Luke has a son and a daughter in this new world and it could be Luke's son saying it as a new fakeout/misdirection/tie in to the old movies?

[Hal-9000]

Luke is supposed to get with Mara Jade according to the lore...I want to see some background on her if she's the mother of their child. (Ben Skywalker)

[DemonGeminiX]

They threw away the expanded universe stuff. This is a completely original story.

[Hal-9000]

So Luke won't be a daddy in this one?




I do like that talk he had with Leia...it pretty much tells her that Darth is her father too.

[DemonGeminiX]

I don't know. There is literally nothing online regarding what's going to happen in this film. They say they threw away the expanded universe stuff, then they come back and say they want to hand over the reigns to the next generation, so somebody had to have had a kid. So the kid(s) are gonna take over, but we don't know who they belong to.

[Hal-9000]

I read there was almost an entire script completed by one guy..then they trashed it and Abrams and another guy wrote the current screenplay.

[DemonGeminiX]

Lucas had a screenplay and Disney declined it.

so in other words, dont expect much, yes, it'll be star wars, but no fkn way we'll ever see something of the caliber of empire ever again

i would have thought you would be a lot more mellow with all that weed fbd

In other words, we have no idea what it's going to be like. We don't know what's going to happen in this trilogy, and we shouldn't pass judgment on it until we actually see it.
