Chewbacca is more than 200 years old in OT. 30 or so years later may not change him as much. 200 is still fairly young for a wookie

. BTW, I think his costume looks better than in 'Revenge'. He didn't look right to me then, but so far I'm happy with his look. Hoping for a better look at him in better lighting in future clips/photos.

I think in this shot he looks spot on! It may not be exact carbon copy of the OT costume (which would be damn hard to do) but it's a hell of a lot closer than how he looked in ROTS.

I've seen a good amount of people online try to claim that it is the dialogue lifted from RotJ, but I think it has different cadence and Hamill is a great voice actor. It is not beyond him to be able to make his voice sound younger.

It's a tough call. They are so close that it's possible that the original takes were digitally manipulated for the new trailer. Or it could be just a dead on repetition with an older Mark Hamill and better recording gear.

I couldn't tell if that was a man or a woman.

OR it could be an alternate recording of the dialogue from ROTJ that was never used until now.

Personally I think it's Hamill and it's a new cut of the same dialogue specifically and only for this trailer. It wouldn't surprise me if we don't even hear this dialogue in the actual movie.

To combine some rumors and confirmed info, all the new style stormtrooper armor is called "First Order" armor, meaning that First Order is an elite unit, so it could be a style unique to them. The Chrome Trooper is their leader, and Finn is under her command... briefly.

Maybe, but I will say that even though she's a model, she could probably wipe the floor with most of us in this thread

Hard to believe that's the same person.

The only part of Chewie that looks strange are his eyes. They're black, as opposed to Peter's blue.

Blu Warrior · 04-17-2015, 02:59 AM

Snow Planet!! So who's the guy in black at the very top? Any ideas?

I'd imagine Kylo Ren.

Could be. Looks like he's wearing a cape of some sort.

JamesKurtovich · 04-17-2015, 03:13 AM

That trailer was incredible.

Like many others, I noticed that Luke spoke of Anakin in the present tense. Does that mean we're likely to see Hayden's ghost?

C'mooooon, December.

Edit: Also, are we going to see someone call a stormtrooper "rebel scum"?

Kylo was photographed with a hood and cape, so it's not much of a stretch. Could also be a new military leader, but we don't have many indications that there's a character like that in this film so far.

The new teaser trailer is VERY exciting! I can't wait for Christmas to get here!

That said, thank God I'm not all into overanalyzing every single aspect of this film. Thank God I'll be able to go see it without dropping to my knees weeping with joy outside the theater.

It's just another movie. It may be turn out to be a very good movie, but it's just a movie. Those people up there on the screen, they are actors.

I just wanted to make that clear.

What do you mean "actors"? That's clearly Han Solo on my screen.

I think i cried a little when Han said, "Chewie, we're home!"
