Guys, whoever's troping. There are already 5 YMMV items and no Main tropes.

Some of those YMMV items are valid, at least. I get the reason for the excitement, even if it's like calling the backseet of the bus.

Loved seeing Lando back in the Falcon

So does the return of the Death Star mean we can start saying Abrams is rehashing Episode VI or what

The Rise of Skywalker.

Per the Star Wars lifestream, every single main character from TLJ is back for this movie: Rey (Daisy Ridley), Poe (Oscar Isaac), Finn (John Boyega), and Rose (Kelly Marie Tran), as well as new characters played by Matt Smith (maybe), Dominic Monaghan, and Keri Russell.

Specifically, here's an image of Rose and Rey together. It looks like Rose might have been promoted to head mechanic (makes sense considering how few people were left at the end of TLJ).

This is what JJ Abrams stated: “I was so grateful to Rian Johnson for so many things he did, but the greatest thing was casting Kelly Marie.”

So suck it, trolls.

Not gonna lie, all the love Kelly got during the panel almost brought a tear to my eye.

As for Sheevatine, Force Ghost is ruled out per canon, but there could be a wraith-like thing or imprint of his essence like we saw with Bane in TCW and heard with the holocron in Rebels.

Or its a clone and we're getting perilously close to Luuke and Luuuke.

[up]Well Boyega did say its more of a love polygon. Him and Oscar pushing Stormpilot is adorable.

[up][up][up][up] I'd say it's more of a Love Quandrangle: Rose likes Finn who likes Rey, but also Poe likes Finn and Finn might like Poe and Rey likes Finn, but also gave a look towards Poe when she met him (because have you met Oscar Isaac?) but also, uh, there's Rose, too.

I think the TLJ artbook played around with the concept of Force Ghost-like baddie wraiths coming back.

Is no Dark Side Force Ghosts actually canon or is that only a Legends rule now?

There were Dark Side Force ghosts until I think TCW or Lucas said that the Dark Side doesn't get Force Ghosts at which point the EU made up some handwaves for it.

I HOPE it's still canon. They don't deserve to live on. Some kind of pseudo-ghost like they did with Darth Bane would be cool, though.

Trailer was mildly interesting. The Matrix jump vs Kylo’s fighter looked dumb, though. Like, why is she even in that desert with no one around?

Totally indifferent about the possibility of The Senate returning. If he’s back, that’s fine I guess. Honestly, if all the things to ape from Legends, that they chose Dark Empire is hilarious.

Puts those rumors in a new light about The Star Forge. Maybe instead it’s The World Devastators.

The “why is she in the desert?” Question: I have no idea, but only because there’s actually so many possibilities I have no idea which one they’ll actually go with.
