The final trailer for "Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi" has dropped and fans are just as excited as ever. The trailer revealed a lot more than the first this time, so now fans have an idea of what is going to happen in the upcoming installment.
ComicBookMovie.com pointed out a number of the biggest scenes in the trailer that have left everyone buzzing and speculating what would be going on. First of which is the shot of Kylo Ren looking out the window with a voiceover of Supreme Leader Snoke, who seems to be talking to him. On the other hand, a theory suggests that Snoke is actually speaking to Rey.
This somehow ties in with a big reveal at the end of the trailer and it does make sense that Snoke would want to look into Rey's potential. This makes fans wonder if this is another scene that parallels the one with Emperor Palpatine planning to replace Darth Vader with Luke, but it remains to be seen if that really happens.
The next reveal would be of Luke agreeing to train Rey, as the trailer shows the Jedi Master accepting the lightsaber and showing her a few new tricks. On the other hand, it has also become apparent how reluctant Luke is to take Rey under his wing. Luke is seen as saying that he has only seen this raw strength once before, and that this power did not scare him enough at first, but it does now.
A shot of Luke coming out of some wreckage follows, which somewhat suggests that he is referring to his former student, Kylo Ren.
Everyone knows that trailers can be cut differently. That is, making everyone believe that this is what is going to happen when the final movie shows very much the opposite. In this case, the trailer makes it seem that Kylo Ren is planning to take out his own mother, General Leia in "The Last Jedi," as if killing his father Han Solo in "The Force Awakens" was not enough.
In a voiceover, Kylo is heard saying to let the past die, and if necessary, kill it. He may be saying this to Rey, but it does make fans wonder if he will take his own advice and gather the will to kill his own mother? It is very unlikely that this will go down, and it is very unlikely that this is how Leia will go out after fans were promised a very fitting farewell to the character after the untimely death of Carrie Fisher. Still, it remains to be seen.
Many might think that the stars of the film probably saw the trailer in the comfort of their homes or somewhere where they could really watch in peace. That might not have been the case for Domhnall Gleeson, who plays General Hux of the First Order in the franchise. Gleeson had to see the trailer as it first dropped without the sound since he was at a crowded bar.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Gleeson said that there was a band playing at the bar at the time and he could not exactly tell them to keep down. Although he could not watch it with the sound on when it dropped, he did watch it again on his computer. Gleeson shared that he thought it was very cool even though his character was not included in this one.
"Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi" will premiere on Dec. 15.
