So I watched a minute and 40 seconds of that and it was objectively terrible. Was that a film reviewer who has recently had a stroke but actually wasnt all that good at reviewing movies in the first place?
I'm not watching an hour of a stroke victim trying to parse together something semi-coherent and loosely calling it a 'film review.'
You can only kill so many hookers in your crawl space with Raid before it starts messing with your motor skills, I'd imagine.
I thought they already came out with a firm, he's not Thrawn.
I doubt they'd introduce him now, not every Star Wars fans reads the books, watches Rebels etc.
He's stride out on to the bridge of a Star Destroyer, and Hux would go "Admiral Thrawn, the brilliant Strategist who got beaten up by a 15 year old and then was sucked into the unknown region by Space Octapus. Welcome back"
If he did show up, they'd probably Grievous him and make him slip on a spilled cup of tea while Poe cracks your mama jokes.

Maybe this is a sign Star Wars is abandoning th DC method of "figure out formula for blockbuster movie and apply to popular franchise" and go to the Marvel method if "figure out what elements made the franchise popular and enduring, and apply those elements within film media". One can hope.
Smith is way too young to be Thrawn unless it's going to be a holocron or flashback or something like that. As I said when the original casting was announced, if they were going to introduce Thrawn, Richard E Grant would be the better casting choice. However, I agree with Captain that they're unlikely to introduce him at all.
The fact that Smith's casting was announced so late is probably an indication that it's not a big role, so it could be a small cameo similar to that character who shows up at the end of Solo.
Another recent casting announcement for Episode IX was the addition of Dominic Monaghan to the cast. He previously worked with JJ Abrams on Lost.

Is the rumored title of the movie considered a spoiler? Like, I don't think a confirmed title is a spoiler, since that's just what it will be called...
Weird decision since Luke is dead, Leia will be in a very limited role, and Kylo is really the only relevant skywalker
Spoiler!
Or is he...?
REY ITS OK, WE'RE ONLY COUSINS!! THIS IS ALLOWED IN SHELBYVILLE!!

Is it me, or are the star trails backwards relative to the motion of the camera/ships?
Maybe they're outrunning the explosion of Star Killer base 2, a even bigger and more powerful version of Star Killer base, so big that its main gun actually shoots out star killer bases.

Lets guess what we see in the trailer, because I haven't written a weirdo fan fic thing in a while
Spoiler!
We open with an asteroid field, the Millenium Falcon swoops through it being pursued by a huge star destroyer and Tie Fighters"
We see Super Star Killer base 2, Kylo Ren sitting on a throne punches a button and says "You may fire when ready commander"
We see Rey on a planet with a bunch of trees kneeling as rocks spin over her head and we hear a female voice and see Shaak Ti as she says "You must learn control
We see faces flash by, Leia, Finn, Rose, Poe, Doctor Evan
We hear a voice over "Even when things are darkest the light will never die"
We see a massive space battle, and we see Poe in his fighter and he has blood running down his face. He's yelling "Get him off of me"
We flash to Kylo Ren stepping off of a shuttle in a huge hanger filled with storm troopers.
We see Rey and Kylo clashing on a volcano planet as music plays, Rey has a look of absolute hate and fury on her face
We see a ghostly figure turn around and its Luke, he speaks
"You've gone down a path that I can't help you with"
Then we see a figure step into a control room and we see Leia, she turns around and her eyes get big. The figure steps into the light and says
"Itsa me Jar Jar Binks, I was your daddy's palo"
Then we see a planet explode.
