way OT this time of year: new The Last Jedi trailer
To briefly get our minds off the debacle that occurred two days ago.
To my fellow Star Wars geeks. It was recently announced that the new trailer drops tonight during the NFL game; however, Rian Johnson (its director) has stated that fans might want to stay away from this one, as it apparently contains a spoiler. To anyone who doesn't know, rarely do directors get involved with trailers. I think it's silly, but that's just the way it goes sometimes.

Neither link contains spoilers. The second one shows a tweet from Rian talking about the trailer.

Johnson directed the best episode of television ever produced. That would seem to be a pretty good choice to direct this movie.
October 9th, 2017 at 4:04 PM ^
Sorry, but no.
Don Barnhart, not Rian Johnson, directed the Miss Bayside episode of Saved by the Bell.
October 9th, 2017 at 4:09 PM ^
Sorry, but no.
Eric Radomski, not Don Barnhart or Rian Johnson, directed the "Almost Got 'im" episode of Batman the Animated Series.
October 9th, 2017 at 4:09 PM ^
wasn't even the best episode of Saved by the Bell. That would be the one where Jessie gets addicted to speed.
October 9th, 2017 at 4:37 PM ^
Jessie Spano on Speed > Jessie Spano as a showgirl.

Well, lucky for you, that was also a Barnhart flick.

Not to mention Looper. I liked Brick too.

You're afraid their mission is going to be to blow up a Death Star again?
October 9th, 2017 at 9:14 PM ^
I'm more afraid they'll need to escape a planet in the early going. Rey will then go train with a reclusive former Jedi master nobody really knows about, Rey will then find out she's related to somebody, and may end up with a robotic limb by the end of the movie

But isn't it already confirmed that Binks is a sith lord?

It’s like putting a triple bacon cheeseburger in front of a fat kid, walking away and telling him not to eat it.

I heard that Drevno and/or Pep Hamilton was responsible for the spoiler.

October 9th, 2017 at 4:28 PM ^
I don't really understand why you'd include a big spoiler in the trailer and then tell people to stay away from the trailer. It's Star Wars. People are going to watch it no matter what you say. Why ruin the surprise and remove some of the mystique and mystery from the movie?
This is like putting a syringe in front of a heroin addict, walking away, and telling him not to inject himself with it. What do you honestly think he's going to do?
October 9th, 2017 at 4:29 PM ^
That's not 100% true. Johnson said that if you want to have completely virgin eyes to the movie not to watch it. He didn't say there was a massive spoiler in it. Of course there will be potential for spoilers, there's footage from the movie in the trailer.
October 9th, 2017 at 10:37 PM ^
there's a LOT of virgin eyes amongst Star Wars fans.

As a true Star Wars fan going back to seeing it in the theater in 1977, FORCE AWAKENS SUCKED! I don't have much hope for this one either.
October 9th, 2017 at 5:40 PM ^
October 9th, 2017 at 9:19 PM ^
I thought The Force Awakens was okay. One thing I will say is that it at least felt like Star Wars, unlike the abominations that were the prequels.
I was disappointed in the derivative storyline that directly mirrored Episode IV. I really hope Episode VIII isn't some mirror image of Empire Strikes Back. If it is, then I'll lose any hope I had left that Disney will do anything interesting with Star Wars again.

Thank you. This is a brilliant response.
October 9th, 2017 at 5:36 PM ^
It's going to be another unoriginal Mary Sue Chronicle with a brooding, spoiled, only-child-gone-evil-but-maybe-not-really, and otherwise chock full of Disney feminism and uninteresting characters that the audience can never quite come to genuinely care about.
I don't know how many more of these I can take. KickAss 3 with lightsabers.
October 9th, 2017 at 6:18 PM ^
Well said, Mary Sue Chronicles should be the title.
Rogue One was pretty decent though.
October 9th, 2017 at 9:00 PM ^
The only character I actually cared about dying in that movie was K-2SO. The human characters invoked nothing. That's... not good storytelling.
Disney should do better. But they won't. They bought a cash cow and they're gonna milk it dry with the minimum effort required.
October 10th, 2017 at 2:09 AM ^
Um, Idk about you but this trailer even with the "spoilers" was pretty dope to me.
It seems like Disney is taking a chance by making Rey into the villain while redeeming Kylo.
That would be an interesting story arc for sure.
It also seems to be destroying the conventional movie wisdom of Sith being evil and Jedi good.
I'm liking the direction.
October 10th, 2017 at 8:56 AM ^
Making Rey a villain is not going to happen. Clearly she might be tempted by the dark side and Kylo will want to teach her, but there is no chance she will actually turn.
October 9th, 2017 at 6:20 PM ^
The spoiler is another Death Star!
