It's very white. Striking, but kinda hard to look at.

Rey's lightsaber looks weird. Is it meant to be that short and pale?

Where is precious cinnamon Rose? Boot Knights of Lame and give their spot to her.

They gave Kylo back his mask. Abrams, y u no understand themes of previous movie? Hope this isn't real.

Abrams is probably going to undo the good story beats that Johnson set up and force it back to his "mystery box" ethos.

Why does C-3PO have a bowcaster?

Also, if this is real, it looks like there are 4 or 5 new characters being introduced, plush the Knights of Ren and Lando. That concerns me deeply. Not as much as 3PO with a bowcaster, but still.

He got separatist flashbacks and took up arms to gun down the jedi dogs.

I like the whiteness, makes for a nice contrast for the central imagery. Same with the red from the TLJ posters.

I think her new lightsaber could be a white blade and is probably just not all in the poster.

Hopefully becoming a better character, also no u go away

True. But i like the mask haha

I wouldn’t count on that. He’s been pretty vocal in his support for some of Rian’s decisions, including Rey’s parentage.

The opening crawl is literally just a series of yellow question marks. Then the film is two hours of abstract noises and dialogue jumbled together from previous films. Then the credits roll but they're all just question marks too. As you leave the cinema, you find the lobby empty and all the lights turned off, save one, which flickers at the far end. A machine is on, choking up an endless ribbon of tickets, all of them for the Phantom Menace. As you make for the door, you see that all the "Now Showing" posters have been replaced with films from the '80s.

Then you leave and go home. This is called Good Drama.

Even more precious and cinnamon-y? Yay!

'kay, I decided the Knights of Ren can stay, but four out of six have to be women of colour. Of the remaining two, one is a disabled lesbian. The other is played by Kathleen Kennedy. In a "Force is Female" T-shirt.

Good good, I haven't been keeping track and was very concerned that Abrams would hijack the narrative when he was put back in charge.

Though Kylo's helmet being back makes me think Abrams either didn't understand the symbolism of TLJ (which is weird because it was very heavy handed) or the poster in question is fake. Where was this deleted off Twitter again?

It’s either fake, and I am leaning towards that option, or an bad sign for Episode IX.

Wait... the Resistance now has proper Y-Wing bombers?

Also, I'm thinking they've written themselves into a corner.

I agree, this is just the latest cause for concern. Assuming it's real, of course.

What corner would that be?


Also, didn't see the Y-Wings. That's another reason to be skeptical of this poster.
