Sir RamaLamaDingDong Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Was Ben Solo was the defector of the Jedi Order Luke was recreating and later formed the Knights of Ren? Luke totally has the I am your father moment with Rey in 8. Kylo and Rey have an epic saber fight in 8 as well. I to would like to see Rey with a double blade saber. Totally agree Leia becomes the Supreme Chancellor of the New Republic. A giant Snoke/Darth Plagueis (8 feetish) and Kylo Ren take on Luke, Rey, and Finn in 9. Finn and Luke are killed, Snoke is killed. Kylo escapes Rey leaving it open ended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Episode 8: Luke returns to resistance cause of some new threat, Rey comes with him, almost a Jedi save for facing Ren again. Ren is tempted by Leia to come back, and almost does it-- and kills Snoke to finish things... But in doing so has even more power and let's go of any conflict about turning back.

The Choc Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Well, 18 months actually. I would think 2 or 3 years myself also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainbleh Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Although it's unlikely with someone completing their training now (and unlikely to be saving any one from the Dark Side), how do feel people about Rey turning to the Dark Side? Don't usually indulge in this sort of thing, but this possibility intrigues me (and it's not an argument for it actually happening) in a Dark Willow way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exodus Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 We will learn that Snoke is a midget. No really, he's not that tall. No way. Maybe normal sized, but seriously...he's fragile and vulnerable, why not project his hologram to be that much bigger? Nobody but Hux and Ren have to know his true size. Wizard of Oz, yes?

Ren is already set up so it seems really clunky to change course. She might be tempted-- the same way Luke was. But they invested an entire movie in establishing her as the next new hope that it would be a giant waste of time to go elsewhere. As for her training-- given what she's already done she's either naturally attuned like Luke or she forgot training she had as a child before being sent away. Either way she'll be a Jedi, or close to it in VIII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wizard of Oz, yes?I said in the other thread that I think Snoke is taller than Yoda, but shorter than Luke. It's not a stretch to believe that Snoke rules behind a curtain. But Ren has to know his true form right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANA-kin Skywalker Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share Posted December 20, 2015 Lando returns in episode 8. He plays a small part in avenging Han. He pilots the falcon with Chewie. Rey is Luke's daughter and he trains her. Gasp! The scars on snoke's face are lightsaber burns, implying Jedi or Sith training. Snoke is Darth Plagieus the Wise. Powerful enough to stop people from dying, and wise enough to convince palpatine he couldn't save himself. Damn that guy is patient. or Snoke is a fallen Jedi from Luke's failed order. This implies Luke knows him well. I believe Han and Leia mention Snoke's name in TFA already so they know him. There will be a romantic interest between Finn and Rey, and possibly a small rivalry/love triangle involving Poe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANA-kin Skywalker Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Snoke is NOT Plagieus I wish that rumor die a fiery death.Fire comes before Snoke. How do you stop a plague? By burning the bodies. Palpatine never burned Plagieus's body, because only Jedi do that, and he's no Jedi. Therefore: Snoke = Plagieus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jedi with no name Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Me: "Hmm, the last time I was on NN, I think it was just after TPM released, I wonder if my account's still there..." Anyway... Random predictions for 8 & 9 huh? Ok... Rey Skywalker. I was hoping they'd take a different direction over the whole family drama thing, but oh well. I've heard rumors she could be a Kenobi too, which would be cooler, IMO.This is not going to be a redemption story for Kylo Ren. He's gonna die, and I really hope (though highly doubt) that Chewie is the one to do it.Luke's lost lightsaber story will take about 20 seconds to tell, and that'll be the end of it.I will leave the theater if Hayden Christensen comes back in ghost form...The Millennium Falcon will not survive Episode VIII.

pavonis Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Snoke looked a bit like a scarred version of whatever Maz Kanata is. The Falcon will survive the trilogy. Apparently it's fricking made of unobtainium. And why would they destroy a ship that can be passed from main character to main character? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANA-kin Skywalker Posted December 22, 2015 Author Share Posted December 22, 2015 I've only seen it once so far, but snoke just looked like a regular scarred and messed up dude to me. Not sure why he needed to be cgi. When I see it again I'll have to check for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest El Chalupacabra Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Most of them have been 2-3 years, save for the decade jump after TPM. It'll only be 2 years real timeTrue, GL released the movies 3 years apart for each trilogy, but only two movies were 3 years apart, story time. The Disney episode movies will be released 2 years apart, with anthology movies in between. TPM (1999) To AOTC (2002) was 10 years apart in the story.AOTC (2002) to ROTS (2005) was 3 years apart in the story. ROTS to ANH was 19 or 20 years apart in the story, depending on source you believe. ANH (1977) to TESB (1980) was 3 years apart in the story. TESB to ROTJ (1983) was about 9 months later in the story TFA (2015) is set around 30 years after ROTJ. Almost 33 years apart real time. Episode 8 is supposed to come out in 2017, and Episode 9 in 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavonis Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Was never clear on determining elapsed time between ESB and ROTJ. What details are giving hints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest El Chalupacabra Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 It's never explicitly stated on screen, I am just going by EU and other sources. Shadows of the Empire is the strongest "source," set between 3 and 4 years ABY. A lot of other sources, and staff interview range between 6 months to 1 year, but a lot seem to indicate 9 months.
