Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII (Pre-release)
my seconding viewing i payed close attention, the first time i saw pieces falling and though it was hands fingers and light saber parts, then knowing kylo kept his hand i figured i needed to watch that scene in greater depth. second viewing it looks like she slices the saber and it falls into 3 pieces, thats what it looks like to me, i have to go see it again. all this graflex grip length is giving me the itch!

Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII (Pre-release)
Aside ticket movie prices rising, I wonder if any movie will ever be able to break Avatar's worldwide run. It seems like this day in age the length of a movie's run is pretty small and I haven't heard of a film running over 279 days since Avatar. The iron strikes hot the first week and typically dwindles rather fast. Star Wars had a really great month, but you can see the numbers are dropping pretty quick now and will never touch that record because it will probaby be completely out of theaters by March and focusing on sales in the home market starting with digital sales and then again on Blu-Ray/DVD the month after.

Not yellow, but the Shadow Guards in the Force Unleashed games had nice saber-pikes:
Well... Even though TOR isn't (yet?) part of the canon, Bastila Shan still bucks that assertion:
As do all the Jedi Temple Guardians:
...as does Savage Opress:
And even Asajj Ventress, when she links her lightsabers together:
And when they aren't...
...she wields them as dual lightsabers:
As does Ahsoka Tano, and always has...
But yeah, so far only Mace can have purple.

Must have been something written into Samuel L's contract that Mace would be the only character allowed to have a purple lightsaber.

Agreed! Let's hope Luke tells her to keep it.

Since she's a Kenobi, combat with a traditional saber will come easy to her.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII (Pre-release)
You know that might add to the story and ROYALLY **** Kylo off, adding to his anger and maybe the story dynamic.
This guy has been running around the Galaxy looking for these artifacts and here is this girl with his Grandfathers light sabre.
I'm sure it will set him off him even more. I can just hear him "That should be mine ! ( he says over and over, enraged). It will be !".

Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII (Pre-release)
We all know the saber called out to Rey. We also know that she experienced a Force vision. I wonder if Kylo will have a vision when/if he even gets his hands on the saber? I want to say no only because Rey had no knowledge of the Force and this was her first exposure. But it always makes for fun conversation.

Do we know this for a fact? Did I miss something since last week?

I don't think this was her first experience with the force. I believe that episode 8 is going to reveal that she was apart of Luke's jedi academy when she was very little. The sole survivor that was hidden away in Jakku and looked over by Lor San Tekka. This is to why the force came so easy to her and why she had the knights of ren vision.
The Kenobi theory is just that, still a theory.

Ha. No. This is just me wildly speculating.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII (Pre-release)
I wonder if Kylo had a vision from Vader's helmet. He does say "show me again, the power of the darkness". When did it show him the first time? (sorry not trying to derail)
Voting for Solo's (other) kid. She IS piloting the Falcon at the end. Would Chewie let just anyone sit there?

Anakin redeemed his self at the end of Jedi and became a force ghost. Vader died with that. More than likely, Snoke, was the one he was talking to, if anyone.
It is possible Han and Chewie had a conversation we did not witness, or just a plot hole.

Re: Star Wars: Episode VIII (Pre-release)
Personally I don't think the saber " called " to her it was Kenobi . I don't believe the saber opened the door to the room she found the saber in. And w clearly hear Kenobi say her name and tell her this is the first step.I don't think the saber is alive . its Kenobi instead of just poping up like a ghost.
