Guest Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Speculation based on the track list The Jedi Steps are a physical location - stone steps on Skellig Michael and either Rey or Finn goes there to study with Luke. Link to post Share on other sites

The Choc 1,615 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 http://io9.com/j-j-abrams-told-us-the-origin-story-of-star-wars-the-1747119292 This is a pretty good story about the process of writing the movie. I don't think we've really heard before and it's something I've wondered about in terms of how much of Arndt's script was in there. Basically Arndt had a script which JJ liked but it was incomplete and had holes in it. Arndt said he would need 18 months to correct it, JJ and Disney didn't have the time, so JJ asked Kasdan to help him finish the script. Kasdan agreed to help write the movie but only if they started over. JJ said fine but added that he loved some of the ideas that were in Arndt's script and that many of them were used anyway. He specifically mentions Rey and Finn. So seems like Arndt does have a major impact on the movie. Link to post Share on other sites
ShadowDog 2,168 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 18 months to correct a script?!? What the hell? Link to post Share on other sites
The Choc 1,615 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Does seem crazy, but thats what JJ said. Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Krawlie 5,816 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 At least it wasn't George Martin doing the rewrite. Link to post Share on other sites
Driver 4,539 Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 Yeah, I think Arndt choked to be honest, and wanted to take his time. THAT said, being in on a lot of negotiations-- you'd be shocked how long some writer's get to write scripts-- and how long it actually takes them. I've gotten jobs specifically cause I can knock one out in a month. But yeah-- I feel like Arndt choked. Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Wader 229 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Chinese trailer, fair bit of new footage towards the end: Link to post Share on other sites
ShadowDog 2,168 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Yeah he must have choked. I'm a fast writer too. I wrote the 90 page first draft of Down Time in 36 hours and my manager thinks it's good enough to sell with just a few notes. Rare, obviously, but you could BUILD A ****ing SPACESHIP IN 18 months. As mentioned that's some George Martin shit. Link to post Share on other sites
Mara Jade Skywalker 958 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 The Chinese trailer had some X-wing shots that made me so, so, so, so incredibly happy. Link to post Share on other sites
Metropolis 717 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Might be just a long shot guess based off of a glimpse, but Kylo Ren's first swing at Finn is one handed. Maybe the crossguard isn't just different, but being that hisbswkrd fighting style is medieval inspired. Link to post Share on other sites
Metropolis 717 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I know that theater staffs have been known to screen movies for all their friends when movies come in, but something tells me that their jobs are more on there line if this time. Sorta like those heavy fines retailers got for seeking Harry Potter books early. Link to post Share on other sites
