I always get sucked in by these trailers. I remember the first Phantom Menace Trailers with Obi-Wan narrating the fall of the Republic over scenes of the new movie and I was hooked.


Watching that trailer, I do have some thoughts

Spoiler!

I made the assumption that when the First Order Fleet including the Supremacy which was the mobile home world of the First Order was destroyed that the First Order and the resistance would be be weakened. Clearly that's not the case, and we're going to see what I hope is a large scale space battle.



Seeing Carrie Fisher was a bit emotional.


C3PO with Red Eyes, I knew it he is the re-incarnation of Darth Plagieus and has been the real Phantom Menace all along.


I'm hoping that the laser blast isn't another super weapon. There have been too many of those.



That's new Palpatine lines, which is meaningful as the Sith always seem to be about fulfilling their destiny.


I'm hoping this isn't another vision or replication of the tree in ESB, the new trilogy has basically been accused of being a reboot of the OT.



I also hope this isn't a case of Rey being possessed by Palpatine, we don't need Palpatine to be jumping from body to body.


My concern even with bringing Cos back is that it smacks of desperation. Though I love IanMcDarmid and the character.


I can't see Rey falling because of the pressure on Disney and the message of strong female hero's.


But I'm still convinced that Rey is linked to Palpatine and Vader in some way. The fight choreography for Rey is so specific to Vader and to Palpatine.


So what if we're mistaken that the fight between Rey and Ren instead of being the end of the movie is at the very start of the movie. They fight, the only way that Rey wins is to unleash her fury and she kills or incapacitates Ren. She has always wanted to know her place in this and she went easily to the dark side tree . . . er hole. So she flees and eventually ends up at some secret abandoned Imperial Facility. She finds a Holocron of Palpatine addressed to her.


He tells her that she is he or that she is Anakin, a clone created in case the Empire falls. Then Palpatine totally runs the seduction on Rey and she falls.


She becomes the very terror that the resistance was trying to defeat. At the end she fights a redeemed Ren, and she strikes him down. Leia reasons with her and Rey realizes the error of her way. She vows to give up the Force and not to train any new Jedi. So the Jedi and the Sith die, Rey goes into exile.


In the after credits video we see Rey meditating on a far off planet and we see an amazing example of Force Power and she opens her eyes and they're not yellow, they're not her normal color, they're Grey.
