I do not believe if Rey was going to be a Skywalker, they would indicate it so blatantly in the title.

I hope Lando somehow revives the robot from Solo that gave it's brain to the Falcon and they finally fuck.

...well, I see I didn't miss anything by skipping Solo...

[Josh]

Seriously, I really don’t want them to undo anything from The Last Jedi.

And I pretty much want Kylo to go completely unredeemed and get wrecked by Rey, The First of Her Name.

And let’s get an Ewok/Porg team-up going.

[Adam]

Well I'm excited. Like the name, love the fact that Lando is back. Not bothered about the Emperor from a narrative perspective but McDiarmid is great in the role.

I think the "Rise Of Skywalker" will refer to Leia, some grand final gesture from her. Though LD's prediction is probably closer to the mark.

Definitely sounds like the Emperor's laugh at the end, huh?

I give no shits about any of the new trilogy leads, though, given how inconsistently they've been written for the past two movies, so *shrugs*.

I'm thinking "Rise Of Skywalker" might point to Luke. Or, in a massive swerve, Anakin (NOT VADER!) somehow comes back to life. (I hope I'm wrong on that one....) Or Rey being a red herring and Luke's actual kid popping up and kicking ass.

This trilogy should not lead to Kylo Ren being redeemed. He crossed the line of that being acceptable when he killed his own father in cold blood, and taking the Skywalker name would be crapping on his father's grave. What Kylo Ren deserves is to die by lightsaber enema.

My theory on the title is that a Skywalker is going to replace a Jedi. Luke was adamant that the Jedi were dead, long gone and never to return... but there will continue to be force users beyond Kylo Ren, that oppose the darkness. I believe the new force users who consider themselves good guys will become Skywalkers, as opposed to Jedi, getting rid of the antiquated Jedi laws that restrict their lives and replacing them with family, love and a reason to fight.

[Hobo]

My theory is that it will literally be Return of the Jedi. Like, all the new footage we saw was just the trailer. It's not in the film.

The only difference will be that the Ewoks will be CG and  sexier.

Jedi are dead, Rey will start a new order and call them Skywalkers.  That's my guess at a dumb direction they could go.

First fantasy baseball and now this silly idea, stop trying to co-opt my things!

When The Force Awakens came out, the perfect endgame for me would have been Rey and Ren having to work together, utilizing both the light and dark sides of the force to defeat Snoke and cripple both the Jedi and Sith and starting a new era where there are no specific good or bad Force Orders.

Well we got halfway there.

[Ruki]

Loved that scene.

Peter Mayhew has died.

Giddy fucking up.

And holy shit, I just found out Canada is getting Disney+ the same day. Hell yeah!

[Hobo]

I watched just to see if the trailer had Werner Herzog in it.

I was not disappointed

[Jimmy]

I'm more excited for this than any Star Wars film. 

Werner Herzog!!!
