I just hope we get something official soon, re the characters and overall story.

 

[Solidus]

I would not expect that right away, we are still almost 1.5 years away.

Me too.

 

[Donut]

The Teaser Poster should just be a hand in space with a lighted up lightsaber

 

[Solidus]

Jesus give it up Donut.

I think we may get some stuff, but don't want to get others hopes up then turn around and yell at production for not having anything. I figure with Friday being SW day at SDCC, and the contest ending that same day, with JJ saying something about that with Monday's video, that there may be something.

they're focus will probably be mostly on Rebels at CC, but I can see them throwing out some kind of VII info.

also, when Rebels debuts in the fall, they might release something VII related, too.

at this point, I just really want confirmation what character Daisy's playing ( is she a Solo or Skywalker ) and if she's the main character of the trilogy, and if she's a badass Jedi!!

everything else............is gravy............

I also want confirmation that Ksenia Solo is in it...............

................wait...................

I doubt you will get that. That may be asking a bit much.

And Donut....that made me laugh I'll admit it.

An off-topic but rather humorous tweet from Zack Snyder.

a guy can dream........can't he??



I wonder, though, if Daisy's true lineage is such a huge story spoiler or twist, will they try to keep it a secret as long as possible, or perhaps even intentionally misdirect?

I mean......we all think she's going to be a Solo......or maybe even a Skywalker............but what if she's really.............

Spoiler

a Palpatine??!!

Part of the new Star Wars movie will be filmed on the Skelligs in Co Kerry.

Filming on the much-anticipated Star Wars 7 began earlier this year at locations in Abu Dhabi and London.

Bonanza for Kerry as Star Wars headed for Skelligs
July 24, 2014

Kerry has pulled off its biggest film coup yet and is in for a major tourism boost when part of the new Star Wars movie will be filmed on the Skelligs.

Filming on the much-anticipated Star Wars 7 commenced earlier this year at locations in Abu Dhabi and in studios in London. Details of the plot, cast and the film locations have been closely guarded, but it’s now certain that the World Heritage island off the Kerry coast will become one of the major film location sites.

The Office of Public Works (OPW) confirmed to Kerry’s Eye this week that “Skellig Michael is being made available for a film production shoot on the island... this production is being fully supported by the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht and the Irish Film Board”.

Could Skellig Michael appear in Star Wars 7?

.............

Radio Kerry News understands local boatmen in Portmagee reached an agreement with the film crew regarding arrangements for ferrying them and equipment to the island for the shoot which is due to begin shortly.

Guess there's been a little chatter for a while now that's been missed about Ireland.

trying to contact lots of kerry folks about starwars - apparently lots of non disclosure agreements signed locally! the force is strong!

Trying to get someone to talk to about #StarWars coming to Kerry-apparently loads of nondisclosure agreements signed!

We had tourist called Kevin on today- was in skellig Michael yesterday-they're building the #StarWars set! It's true

[Solidus]

Cool, I wonder if they are still going to film at the Isles of Skye as well?

 

[vinsanity]

googling Skelligs found this interesting images:

I think we can walk on that island.

 

[Bim]

[MagnarTheGreat]

Whatever it is, they're filming soon...
