"The Force Awakens" (with SPOILERS)

Visiting Croatia, I learned that parts of "The Last Jedi" were filmed in Dubrovnik. Between Thrones and that, it's a busy place.

 

The "Last Jedi" trainer debuts during MNF tonight.

 

It's connected to tickets too. Fandango is releasing them for sale as soon as the trailer airs.

 

Oh shit. Thanks for the info. Wife wants to see it at full service theater so we need to get tickets early.

 

Damn, this shit starts earlier and earlier.

Next they will be making these trailers pay-per-view.

 

Tickets are on sale now, ahead of trailer release, as an FYI for whom it may concern.

 

Kylo Ren in trailer: "Let the past die. Kill it if you have to." Immediate cut to Leia.

 

This is either the new Han Solo or the new JarJar Binks:

 

From what I've read, it is more of a new Ewok.

 

Helluva trailer. Count me as quite excited to see it.

Appears to have a pretty dark tone, like Empire.

 

That jumped out at me as well.

Such a tough spot to be in. Seems pretty clear Fisher was supposed to be in the next movie.

If they kill Leia in the upcoming flick, it's gotta be handled right.

Also wondering: Episodes 1-through-7 all have the exact same opening. Music, epidode number, three-paragraph rolling crawl. It was such a big deal to Lucas that he got in trouble with SAG because he didn't have actor credits.

Do they break tradition and pay tribute to Carrie Fisher before the flick starts?

No big deal to me either way. Just curious.
