Star Wars - Episode VIII

[MarvelMaster616]

I really enjoy the behind the scenes trailers

Agreed! Looks very promising. It'll be interesting to see what sort of plot this movie follows. After The Force Awakens followed A New Hope so closely, could that mean The Last Jedi will follow Empire Strikes Back? Could that mean we see a clash with Snoke? Or someone losing a limb? It's hard to say, but I won't be too surprised if this finds a way to eclipse the Force Awakens.

Well, it looks like it might in terms of the main characters being separated for most of the film, and the Jedi training. However, what we've seen of the Finn/Leia/Poe/bb8 stuff doesn't really look like anything from ESB that much (except maybe the more tranquil Cloud City bits), as much of ESB was them on the run, and then later imprisoned (and then again on the run). It seems like they're trying to get help for the resistance on the Casino planet, or something like that. There does seem to be a battle involving Walkers, but I have the feeling it's closer to the end of the film (and perhaps at the same time as the space battle?)

LA Times - 'Star Wars'' Rian Johnson on crafting the crawl for 'The Last Jedi'

http://www.latimes.com/entertainment...718-story.html

But was there a particular phrase or word he was most proud to sneak into the first moments of “The Last Jedi”?

“It would be funny if it was ‘poop,’” he said with a grin. “Which is a first for the ‘Star Wars’ universe. That’s the whole crawl, just the word ‘poop.’”

Then he answered seriously, turning to the side to avoid being caught on camera mouthing even one word from the highly secretive script:

“Decimated,” he said, and he looked quite proud.

I noticed 3 things that really jumped out at me in the behind the scenes trailer:

- Kylo is fighting 2 people with lightsaber or vibro weapons (my best guess is they are Luke and Rey)
- Rey is fighting 3 people with lightsaber or vibro weapons (Knights of Ren is my guess)
- Phasma is shown holding 4 different weapons (perhaps she'll be more active this time)

Am I the only one who saw Darth Maul. Are my eyes seeing things?

Where about in the trailer?

And if you did, pretty sure it would've blown up all over the internet by now.

Don't know everything so fast. How can Darth Maul be in this?

I don't want Darth Maul in this. It will ruin the movie.

He definitely died in Rebels, like not falling into a hole with no body found but there was a fight in the desert, he fell to the ground and it was confirmed that Obi-Wan then burned the body.

I'm trying to found that trailer. Will post it if I find it.

I suppose that if you could restring his action figure at the waist why not the real thing lol.

That ended surprisingly quickly. Obi-Wan wasn't even trying that hard.

The arc built up like an old samurai film. They fought in their minds.

The cool symbolism about is how Obi-wan prepares to fight in his form from the latter two prequel films, but instead switches to the form he and Qui-Gon used in their first fight, and while Qui-Gon fell to Darth Maul all those years ago, its this form, coupled with Obi-Wan's knowledge of Maul's fighting style, that quickly ends the battle. It all came back around really from the very first fight.

It was one of those things that in the moment I was like, damn that was fast, and wanted to be disappointed but with reflection on how they crafted it I appreciated it and now think its a great scene.
