“Reach out…what do you see?”
Balance has been a major theme in Star Wars stories of late, from The Force Awakens to Rebels. Looks like this will play out in Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi.

I agree Sean. And I think that means at least one limb lost, and one reveal of true parentage…

+1. Since The Force Awakens is basically A New Hope, this better be Empire Strikes Back good! :)

I can’t set my hopes THAT high. But I loved The Force Awakens, so I really am optimistic regardless.

Excitement builds.
Thanks Mike!

Do you have any thoughts about this one yet? I’m just excited that it was such a Luke oriented trailer.

I try not to have too many hopes or expcectations as a protective device! (But I’m so hoping that they do give Luke some hard won wisdom and gravitas without making him too flipping po-faced and Duddley Do-right).

I certainly get that vibe from this trailer. I understand about not wanting to have too many expectations. My feeling just from this trailer is that Luke is now on a Yoda-like level, which I certainly admit that I hope to see :)

Last one rehashed A New Hope, this one oughta rehash Empire. Rey coming out of a cave, upset? Luke is now Yoda, teaching her? I wonder if Lando will sell someone out in some way…
Also, I’m not buying it when Luke says the Jedi must end. He’s probably just in a downer ‘cos he’s been stuck on that island all this time. Betcha Rey talks him out of it or does something to prove him wrong…

I have my own thought on that. I think the Jedi must end because they keep turning evil and screwing things up.

I really hope you’re right, because Emo Luke would be f-ing annoying.

Great trailer. Didn’t give away the farm. Just whetted the appetite for more.

Opened up quite a few questions too of course. December can’t get here quick enough.

I have high hopes for this one. The enthusiasm was dimmed a bit due to the, eh, plagiarism of The Force Awakens, but Rogue One renewed the enthusiasm.
The poster is shocking, though.
