Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (Pre-release)

If that poster is real then it might be confirmation that Chewie dies. Plus if 3PO is suddenly given the bandolier and bowcaster and is now a fighter....I wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry. hey Knights of Ren, nice of you guys to show up at the end of the story when you could have made the First Order a more viable threat the whole trilogy!

Okay. If that is a legitimate poster, then I am going to abandon ship quite soon. That poster is IMO the absolute low point in the history of all Star Wars MOVIE posters. BUT !!! I have hopes that it is one of those "decorative" posters and not meant as a real advertisement poster.

My complaints: at first glance terrible new character designs. Terrible OLD character designs. The Knights of Ren are less than intimidating. C-3PO and a bow caster?! Is that S.T.A.R. from The Black Hole among the Knights? Not enough guts to at least update Landos attire? I mean, does anyone here dress like he did about 35 years ago? Come ON!!!

Okay. It is a teaser. But I do not feel teased, I feel irritated. Or is that a to-date unknown allergy I am coming down with?! Time will tell...

Yeah, I don't dress the way I did 35 years ago -- but I was in fourth grade then. I do, however, dress much as I did in high school. But I was an odd duck, both then and now.
 
The one thing I've loved about every live action Star Wars film (barring a few exceptions) are all the costumes. These designs look cool to me.

Plus Han dressed pretty much the same the entire series so having Lando dressed the same doesn't bother me unless he's wearing that outfit in the snow or something like that. That was something that I loved about the OT was that the characters would change their outfit to suit their environments, one of the many missteps of the prequels.

It looks like an art department mock up to me, definitely a production leak, but I'd be surprised if it were intended for general release.

PS : I imagine C3PO is simply carrying the weapons, it looks like he has Reys old staff on his shoulder
 

Things of note:

Y-Wings are back?

TIES with the pointy outboards. I like them.

Of course we know about the new trooper helmets. I quite like these, but miss the organic alien looking originals. All the helmets in Star Wars now look like Earth biker helmets.

The band around Rey's saber suggests she's keeping the old design, so nothing new to see there.

C-3PO fighting? I REALLY really hope not.

I like all the red on that one X-wing.

Kylo keeps his broken helmet. That's fun. Couldn't be bothered making a new one? Maybe a cooler one?

The knights of ren... Here comes the folk we know nothing about.

I'm still excited. I have hope. And after all, without hope, the Rebels would have been lost in Star Wars.

See, Rey wears essentially the SAME outfit on all of her outings. Okay, Lando still or again lives the Pimp Lifestyle so yeah.
I do miss a diversity in costuming for Rey. It simply aggravates me to see mostly only colour changes innher costumes. And it tells me that we wont see much time passing between 8 and 9. Ah heck. December can come.

Sure beats Padmé Amidala changing into ridiculous outfits every seven minutes in 'The Phantom Menace'
 
I'm fine with additions or subtractions with costumes too. Like add a camo poncho and a helmet to Luke in Jedi and he's in Endor gear, even though he's still wearing his black outfit underneath. That kind of thing.

I'm more concerned about the story being ****.

Thats my thoughts exactly now knowing the poster is real
 
That poster looks like it was assembled from Star Wars clip art, just the lazy phone it in kind of job that's the norm these days.
Personally, I was never a fan of the group shot poster. They're overdone, and usually look pretty slapped together. I think the only one that was done well was the Raiders poster.
 
No way this is real :confused: How do you guys know? I mean its just garbage! Well maybe if it's a mock up... I hope they discarded it right away
And WTF is this???

A well respected member in this community has connections in Lucas film. His connection confirmed its 100% true

And before I get flamed for “yeah yeah, move along Halliwax” I’ve seen his proof in the past with my own eyes.
