I guess the Skywalker saga just had to end with Sidious, as the main overarching villain

Oh, and we might get to hear a modern version of this...

yass

his theme was always sooo goooooood

I know alot of people are like "oh this is not a good idea to bring him back.. they are just using the past success to fuel the new movies" but I think they are going to do this in a smart way. I trust JJ, and I honestly love that Sidious is basically the main evil of the entire Skywalker saga.

I mean, I understand people might be annoyed by it but for me personally this gives me interest again, since I haven't cared for this new trilogy so far

Also Lando

as long as it's as good as the other 2 I'll be happy

it is kinda sad that the parts we are most excited for are the original characters showing up haha.. but i really don't care! I can easily say i like the original characters more than the new ones! but that being said.. It doesn't mean i dislike the new ones. I actually really like Rey

she reminds me of Bastilla from KOTOR! that is why i am still holding out for her to have a double bladed lightsaber haha

since Kylo resembles Revan so much

she doesnt have one

she gets anakins lightsaber...

Can someone who knows about star wars explain why Kylos lightsaber doesn't cut through the dude in the trailer

Is he wearing special armour or something?

its just a new trilogy thing

kylo ren got smacked in the face with a lughtsaber and he got cut

thats ot

its annoying honestly

That's really weird

I expect them to slice through everything

yeah im not a fan

but i guess it keeps the tradition of changing hjow lightsabers work every trilogy

originals, it made them bleed

prequels it cauterised the wound

new trilogy it doesnt cut

Hmm, the prequels sound like the most realistic type

Given how the lightsaber looks

ye

Glad they did something well

That "guy" was one of the knights of ren so I assume his armor is pretty thick

It always cauterized the wound actually. In ESB when luke cuts off the Wampa's arm it bleeds at first but then you can see it's cauterized

just because we SEE her holding anakin's lightsaber in the trailer doesn't mean that's actually real. i mean why is she wearing her force awakens outfit and has her old force awakens hair style?.. i think the desert scene is some sort of dream sequence

or maybe even her and kylo's force connection

isnt her outift the same as the death star ruins scene>

Yep

It's similar to the force awakens but it's more white

also at the panel JJ literally said that Anakins lightsaber would breturnin

Yep

which im not a fan of tbh

i wouldve liked to see Rey build her own

I am. I love that lightsaber

maybe one of those books would have guides on how to build one

I don't think so. The sacred Jedi texts were more about the force and stuff
