Star Wars: The Force Awakens (Pre-release) (Spoilers)

I hope JJ is not trying to make his own transformer to compete with Michael Bay!

B-U4D being called Buford is kind of clever. Don't even know if we'll hear it's name said in the movie though.

Good breakdown of final trailer!

I like Buford. You could stick him in 70's scifi and he'd fit well.

I also think Vader's saber being in the midle of an exploding Death Star main reactor might render it a bit less recognizable than Anakin's...

I don't believe that was the fate it experienced.

And why not, pray...?

In Aftermath, a transaction takes place that involves a red lightsaber "believed" to be Vader's.

To be fair, the passage in the book assigns some ambiguity to the red saber (don't have the book with me) but I think the seller of the saber is not sure of the saber's origins - however they still sell it under the guise that it was Vader's (it does ignite, and it is crimson). But the buyers claim the plans are to destroy it for whatever reason. So, it may not make it to the movie.

Perhaps it's what Kylo's saber is created from.

Looks like a lightsaber in his left hand.

Ummmm... that's his right hand! LOL

The unlit one in his left hand.

The speculation I posted in the SWU synopsis of the MSW podcast suggest that is Luke's saber Kylo has stolen from the Clan he massacred.

 

[Inquisitor Peregrinus]

^ Yup. There are many things I wonder about. In Aftermath, who are the Acolytes of the Beyond who were seeking Vader's saber to destroy it? What happened to them -- and that saber -- between Aftermath and TFA? Was that Vader's saber? Did the Knights of Ren find them earlier, wipe them out, and Kylo use the destroyed pieces of Vader's saber to cobble together that saber he's wielding?

I've said elsewhere I am loving all the speculation, rumors, and -- amidst it all -- not knowing anything for sure...

The more I look at it, the less I think it's a lightsaber.

The more I look at it, the less I think it's a lightsaber.

That's because it's not, it's just a flashlight because it's rather dark in that scene and they obviously need a way to see in the dark and that lightsaber just ain't cutting it (no pun intended) as a light.

 

[glunark]

If anything it looks like another triple bladed one.

So is that scene depicting the massacre in the flashback?
