![]() This is where JJ reminds me of a modern day Lucas. I liked the dolly shot of them running down the corridor. But as long as his return makes sense, I’m down with it. Or maybe matured Kylo into something way worse. ![]() I suppose you could’ve created a new villain. I know some people think it’s stupid but due to the Rianator killing off the big baddie in Episode 8 for all of 5 seconds of audience shock, JJ didn’t have a choice. The Emperor segment where we see his chair and we see his ship rise from underground (or is that water?) is pretty cool. The shot is turbo-charged by the fact that he’s the only remaining character from the new trilogy who stirs up any emotion in us. Next we get the best shot of the trailer – when Kylo emerges from the water with his lightsaber. Unfortunately, it was followed by an unnecessary shot of Rose which is only there because SJWs start whining on Twitter whenever the Star Wars brand doesn’t feature her. The first good shot is of the Resistance packed into a room with Lando at the center. Still, the voice over had a crisper cleaner feel to it compared to previous voice overs, which I found refreshing. Is it Poe? I’m sure everyone in the world will know by the time I post this so I’ll accept looking like an idiot. I don’t think it’s Rey and I’ll leave it at that. The opening shot with the training cap dropped is made to look like it’s Rey. Now that the trailer is FINALLY out, we have the answers we’ve been looking for.įirst, let me share my immediate observations.

They’re hoping Rise of Skywalker will make 2 billion plus at the box office. To achieve this feat, the Episode 9 trailer needed to be one of the most memorable trailers of all time. ![]() And if anybody thinks that’s easy, they’ve never written a screenplay before. After this, you have to create all new iconic characters that people will want to watch through multiple movies. As much as we’ve heard Star Wars is eager to move away from the Skywalker Saga, the truth is, it’s still its best moneymaker. It has to whet the appetite for Star Wars films moving forward. This trailer doesn’t just have to end the 9 film nerfology. You’ve got Kevin Feige throwing around Star Wars ideas now, as if they’re so desperate for good press they’ll force their way-too-busy Marvel president to make a flick.Īnd that’s the thing. Another one is close to being canceled (Benioff and Weiss). An entire trilogy was canceled (Rian Johnson’s). Only a few Twitter users on an island try to make the case that it “wasn’t that bad.” Ever since The Last Jedi, the franchise has been stumbling. The Star Wars brand was destroyed in the hands of Rian Johnson. This is the single most important Star Wars trailer of all time. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.
