A/V Episode VIII - THE LAST JEDI - Official Movie Discussion Thread

Holy crap there is a lot of wonderful stuff in that video. But for some reason the fact that there is a

Zilkin of all species

in the film is blowing my mind.

 

Creature comments:

Does this creature have crystals along its body instead of fur? COOOOL



I love sentient insectoid species so I hope that's what this fellow is! (Is this a species already introduced in other canon material, or perhaps something recognizable from Legends? Sorry if it is and I just made myself look dumb. I don't recognize it.)

 

We got a couple of nice posters here:

I predict that will be a must have toy come Christmas. And I think Jello is going to be jealous of General Hux's Mercedes Benz staff car inspired speeder.

 

Spoiler

It's a Leaderus Snokeus

 

I want three of them.

No love for the ice fox? It looks like pretty cool creature design.

I bet you loved this shot :

So this screenshot basically confirms Corellia, I guess? Fitting.

 

I got a question, do you think they are going to do a homage to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and have them meet Snoke?

Spoiler

 

I laughed at that too hard. Usually I roll my eyes at that pun. I was very caught up in the video.

 

That video definitely lends a lot of support to what Johnson has said in regards to people complaining about the excess of lumpy brown aliens. There's some pretty cool designs in there.

I thought the Casino planet was Canto Bight, but I am ALL FOR a trip to Coronet City, where the grass is green and the otters are pretty.

 

Spoiler

Teh rumorz at the moment have been calling Canto the city on an unnamed planet, although there's been ambiguity whether that's true or not and it will be the whole planet too.

 

Spoiler

On top of that, early rumors were that Han's funeral would be featured in the movie, so having it be on Corellia and then hijinks involving a casino there would be fitting.

 

Interesting...

Spoiler

His necklace is clearly visible. I wonder if it'll be mentioned, or if it's just an affectation that will just be there but never brought up.

 

I hope the necklace is something that he was given by Shara Bey,

Guys, it looks like

Spoiler

what Making Star Wars called porgs.

 

The porgs are the key to all of this. If we can get the porgs working... Because the porgs are a far cuter character than we've ever had in any of the movies before.

Spoiler

 

Porgs = The BB-8 cash cow opportunity of TLJ. Pre-order your plush porg now!

 

Call me heartless, but it won't work on me.

 

Look into their eyes......

EDIT: Changing tack:

Kate Monster: Finally, I get to teach a whole lesson all by myself. And I'm gonna teach something relevant, something modern - the Internet! The Internet is really really great,
Trekkie Monster: For porg!
Kate: I've got a fast connection so I don't have to wait.
Trekkie: For porg!
Kate: What? There's always some new site.
Trekkie: For porg!
Kate: I browse all day and night.
Trekkie: For porg!
Kate: It's like I'm surfing at the speed of light...
Trekkie: For porg!
Kate: Trekkie!
Trekkie: The Internet is for porg!
Kate: Trekkie!
Trekkie: The Internet is for porg!
Kate: What are you doing!?
Trekkie: Why you think the net was born? Porg! Porg! Porg!

 

There's a shot of Kylo wearing his mask! I thought he was mask-less in TLJ (heck you see it smashed in the trailer). Or is that TFA footage or a Starkiller Base flashback.
