I meant the two times she's shown parking in town.
But now that you mention the SD, she could've parked at the top of the slope.

But wouldn't it just slide down to the bottom?
Its frictionless.

That 4 billion they paid for lucasfilm seems quite the bargain now dosn't it?
I wouldn't be at all surprised if they havent made half that back by the end of January.

I don't get this whole "Mary Sue" thing, but maybe I'm old - io9 did a write up on it and I still didn't really get it:

The comments there are nuts.

could have been Lol it was way before the remake so I doubt I would have caught it then . and it was around that time of day lol .
There was a narrow flat area at the top, where she collected her stuff and was able to get on the sled before pushing off.
I'd agree but GOTG pushed my kid buttons really good.

He's just overcompensating because, as we'll find out, he's actually shorter than Yoda.
I've had a thought about the use of the lines, "The Force is strong in my family. My father has it. I have it. My sister has it. You have that power, too," in the trailer, and why it wasn't used in The Force Awakens. A lot of fans have assumed Luke was talking to Rey, but now I'm thinking it will be used as part of Ben's/Kylo Ren's back story and that Luke is talking to him to convince him to train as a Jedi (before he turns to the Dark Side, that is), and that it's use in the trailer was either misdirection or hinting at the relationship between Luke and Ben/Kylo Ren. Thoughts?

Interesting fact that Rey was using staff techniques during the light saber battle. I would've never noticed that.
How can you tell the difference? And if that is the case, a bit of forethought is going on in this franchise

Or it could be exactly what they've been saying all along and it's just a slight reshuffling of the already-existing dialogue from Return of the Jedi with some overdub only ever intended for the trailer...
Having studied both sword and staff forms over the years (European fencing, kendo, and aikido jo-staff mainly), it just jumped out at me. With two-handed swords, and with most of the previous lightsaber use, there isn't much in the way of stabbing motions, but it's one of the basic moves with a staff. Another is actually a move shared with really big zweihander swords where, rather than a hefty woodchopper swing from the base of the hilt, there's a more... leveraged, tucking your hands in to your side opposite the swing motion, to try to describe it. I need to see it again to spot more, but yeah.

Disney infinities spoiling Rey´s identity?
Îs this a hoax or a planned crossover?

I don't know...I didn't like Crystal Skull, but I really, really, liked TFA
Yeah but most compants I heard for CS are are the fridge and aliens completely ( ignoring lebuf that is a whole thing unto itself ) then no one complained about rubber raft out of a plane or god being proved real including a pagan god in temple . it seems most complaints about TFA are similar "problems" the OT had most of which will be explained in VIII anyways.
I went with a friend and his 9 year old who loved it . after the movie a lot of my problems with it floated away hearing him go on about the movie letting me see through his eyes and not the old crab I am becoming which let me enjoy it better the next two viewing .

now that you mention it I did notice her going in for a few jabbing motions with the lights saber, which I found strange. Makes sense now though!

I love ESB, most of us do, almost every fan rates that as his favourite, but I'll just add that in a facility miles in diameter that he had never been to in his life Chewie managed to find 3PO's pieces at the exact moment they were about to be melted down, but hey, that's empire, that gets a free pass.
If TFA was the movie we saw as a child and ESB the movie that came out last week, TFA would be untouchable, and ESB would be getting ripped to shreds.
Seeing an exploding planet from a different planet? Try travelling from one star system to another with no hyperdrive.
I guess a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, the big bang was a closer event, and systems wern't quite as far away from each other as they are now.
That would take care of both movies problems quite nicely.

To a certain extent, I was reading the comics for a few years before any film announcement and even had my Rocket Raccoon action figure.

I thought the jabbing was Luke moves when he was attacking Vader after the sister reveal.
Good that you bring that up. Bit of a difference, in execution. Rey's is more of an intentional move, that she made several times, that's not really native/natural for the weapon, whereas Luke just lost control, made a wild stab, that turned into a power slash, that turned into a wild flail... It was definitely noticeable, but was a one-time thing for him, in extremis.
