No he's not. He's saying if you want to come in 100% spoiler free avoid the trailer, but that it is awesome.

Which doesn't really apply to anyone in this thread, so that was a weird way for the other poster to put it.

I find it interesting that with both this and Force Awakens, Disney has made such a hard pivot to dropping the episode numbers from the titles -- it's a huge contrast from the prequel era, when the episode numbers were front and center on so much of the marketing material.

Loved it. I assume there's a ton of misdirection going on because that was full of spoilers. Maybe Rian was right.

Dropping the numbers helps hide the fact that they're gonna be cranking out a new movie every Christmas

It's so they can keep it perpetual w/o audiences feeling like there's too much for them to have to digest ahead of time in order to understand whatever they want to sell. Once you're in the theater/bought the disc/rented the iTunes stream, you've parted with your money, and odds are against you getting back up for a refund because you see "EPISODE VIII" at the head of a scrolling bunch of words that you'll forget about ten minutes after they stopped scrolling.

The one that had like a bazillion different characters and was kinda hard to follow because I read it really late at night after having a few.

You mean the one from two pages ago... that started out by outlining the trailer that would be released today to establish credibility and got it 100% wrong?

This trailer confirmed it to be nonsense.

So, Rey is basically the new Chosen One based on what Luke said? He didn't fear Vader's power then, but he does now?

At first I thought he was talking about Palpatine's power, which would hint at that dumb "Rey is Sheev's granddaughter" fan theory. But based on it showing the academy burning it was probably Ben he was talking about.

Definitely not Palp I'm thinking. Seems like a pointed reference to Vader. And if that's the case I don't think it's Kylo. His whole deal is that he can't measure up to Vader. Rey is practically the anointed heir.

I agree, Rey is definitely the power he said he was afraid of. I meant that I think Ben was the power he had seen before and wasn't afraid of, rather than Palpatine which was my first reaction.

I don't think it was Vader, though. Luke overpowered Vader pretty handily in ROTJ, followed by Sheev completely wrecking him with barely any effort.
