Especially that last pairing where would his tool go?

Who says it's Lando's tool? Maybe L3 has the tool that disappears.

"It goes where!?"

Suddenly this scene has taken on a whole new meaning...

Now you know what Luke was concerned about when he asked 3PO: "What are you doing hiding back there?"

The Last Jedi is the ultimate cold shower.

I dunno if this has been discussed yet, but there's a rumor that C-3po is going to

Spoiler

Get reprogrammed and be able to kill, similar to 4-LOM. That would explain the leaked images of him with Chewbacca's bandolier and bowcaster.

If it's true, sign me up. JJ really did say "**** it".

Not sure if this has been mentioned already, but according to the TROS Amazing Sticker book...

Spoiler

The Sith Troopers are Kylo's not Palps's. So much for letting go of the past.

I wonder if that ties into

Spoiler

Kylo rant to Hux in TFA regarding going back to clone troopers vs the FO using non loyal individual ones

I've read a few fan theories and some spoilers by folks who either had good guessing or some real sources on previous films and if even half of them are right, this movie is going to disappoint even more people than TLJ seemed to. It sounds like a dud creatively speaking (think another white board exercise with name swapping and recycled story elements like TFA/ANH only it'll be ROTJ v2 without the teddy bears).

The only thing that will keep SW alive and viable are the TV shows at this point.

While it's clear that Rey should have had some connection to the Skywalker line to make the ST work, the need to connect people up as relatives just seems to have gone a bit haywire in TROS.

There's also a lot of "aww I don't believe it, they've died... oh wait, no they actually didn't!" (that happens 3-4 times)

There also doesn't seem to be that magic bullet explanation of how Palps could possibly have survived the shaft fall and the DSII explosion that followed. Though the leaked story doesn't go into huge detail.

But the most head-scratching aspect of the leaked story I thought of was how Leia seems to have a huge role in TROS. I was expecting a short cameo mostly based on unused TLJ footage and a bit of CGI to plug the gaps. BUt what's described seems to have a lot more than that, which brings up CGI human issues like the Leia seen in RO. Tarkin kinda worked because it was dark and his face is sort of villain-cartoonish but you have to wonder how the close-ups of Leia will work.

Gotta disagree with your view on Tarkin....he was well lit and perfectly done really.

So well done the non fans I saw RO with had no idea he was cgi.

I do agree a film with a bunch of Leia stuff os a weird choice.

When Carrie died LFL pledged there would be no CGI Leia.

Speaking of ROTJ re-hashes, I was watching it last night and realized what could've course corrected a lot of my disappointment in TFA. During the scene where Han says he has a team but no flight crew and Chewie and Leia say they're in. Then Luke walks in and says "I'm with you too". If they could've done something similar when they're going to rescue Rey, it would've given us the heroes reunion in the Falcon one last time and Leia and Luke could've also witnessed Kylo killing Han, making TLJ a different and likely better story. Instead of having to find Luke on the island, Luke comes to them, sensing the disturbance (or whatever). Would it have rehashed a little from Jedi? Sure, but the one thing I'm most bitter about is they never had our four main heroes together during the entire damn ST...

Yep KK said that right after promising to honor George's characters and story. Oh wait...

I mean if they're CGing living Daisy Ridley (color correcting her Jakku outfit in the TFA Leia scenes they salvaged to match her new white duds) then how can they not tweak Fisher, lol.

The problem with your Rey rescue rewrite is that they made Leia a general, and generals don't go on covert rescue missions. That and it wouldn't be believable that she could physically handle such a mission. Let's face it, Carrie Fisher was not in the best shape when these movies were filmed. But otherwise that sounds better. They'd at least be together again when they planned the mission, and we wouldn't live in a world with Luke Drinking Blue Milk memes.
