Tlj obviously ended with the resistance fleeing like obiwan and Yoda did, waiting for a new generation to rise up and be trained by the hidden old guard

Except ep 9 is coming out not about that so who the gently caress knows. Hell, it's inexplicable how the trailer has all those b, y, a and xwings

I don't understand why they didn't just make the time gap between TLJ and Episode 9 roughly 5 years instead of 1 year. The actors have aged about that much since the filming of TFA anyway.

You might have been thinking about Disney forking out $4 billion to purchase Lucasfilm and how they've made back their investment and then some since then.

Honestly, it doesn't look like Rey at all. My first thought was that it was Keri Russell.

But I agree it's some sort of Force vision.

The merchandising from Force Awakens probably put them in the black. Star Wars toys and bedsheets are very lucrative. I’m pretty sure that’s why they made Christmas the release window for these movies instead of keeping them in May like the previous six had been.

I mean, more than $4 billion worldwide box office would have made it far and away the most successful movie of all time, it would have been trumpeted like the climax of Revelation and we wouldn’t have had Disney scratching and crawling to top Avatar months after they became the owners of it, since Avatar didn’t quite reach $3 billion itself.

Bowcaster 3vil PO is probably going to be a result of latent left over poo poo being turned on that was stuck in his programming from when his head was soldered to a battledroids body back on Geonosis at the start of the Clone Wars.

And it's going to make me chuckle when it happens because that will rule.
