:eek :eek :eek :eek :eek So who wants to see the Episode VII villain? Indierevolver.com AGAIN, who are these guys.

A lot of information and images related to Star Wars: Episode VII are coming to light this week, and we’ve got just one more treat for you to enjoy over the weekend. We’re headed into definite spoiler territory now, so be warned – if you don’t want to know, now’s your chance to turn back!

If you haven’t yet, please head over to Latino Review and read their terrific writeup on the known plot points of the upcoming Star Wars sequel. There’s a lot of connective tissue (and wonderful surprises) there which make sense of a lot of what we’re seeing these days and over the coming weeks.

It’s true that the main villain of Episode VII is a Sith Inquisitor. He’s tall and thin and terrifyingly creepy, with glowing red eyes to match his red lightsaber. He’s got some robotic upgrades, like Vader – but no mask. The cybernetic bits weave in and out of him. He’s got a human upper lip, a steel jaw… and the robotic hand that JJ Abrams posted an image of. As LR mentioned, we’ll see flashbacks in this movie which will show us Princess Leia as a young girl and Vader’s involvement with the Sith during his prime. This inquisitor has a fascination Vader through the movie’s timeline as well though – just look how he stares at Vader’s shattered helmet in this image:

What use do you think the Sith might make of Vader’s decrepit armor after all these years? Might they clone him from his cells? Is this a second discarded set of armor, or a burnt shell from Luke’s funeral pyre? Reply below and let us know your thoughts.

What a great time to be a fan of Star Wars. May the force be with you![7quote]

Hmmmmm

Def like the darker sound of that. He certainly looks the part.

Not really digging the Vader stuff, at some point they need to move on from the OG stuff, but I suppose a few flashbacks won't hurt too much.



For the connected stuff, they def need to let Vader and all the other stuff go, BUT, I would not be upset with a Vader spinoff series. 8o Maybe fill in the 18 year gap between Sith and ANH, just with all new characters, kind of like The Force Unleashed games. That's where they should be using Vader, not in 7-8-9.


Still, Inquisitor looks bad *** so far. :hat
 
More rumors from today.
Han and Chewie don't pilot the Falcon anymore.... Because they are in command of a Super Star Destroyer.

Admiral Ackbar is a major character in the movie.

Oscar Issac owns the Falcon now.

Luke is on the land surface of Mon Cal.

A superweapon is being built on some snow like planet.

We will see Han use a lightsaber again.

The hand in the image JJ shared a while ago belongs to this Inquisitor, who of course wears a long black robe, and has a half metal half flesh face.

Star Wars Rebels is must watch now.
 
I don't even really care about Avengers 2 right now, I haven't felt like this since 1998 when I first heard there'd be prequels :lol
 
The Star Destroyer designs are what I am looking forward to next.

And whether or not we have a new Jedi order established.
 
Im wondering how many of these Inquisitors there are and who's playing em. This is so exciting :smokin :smokin :smokin

Biggest thing to me honestly is Han
piloting a Star Destroyer. The guy who said that said he was so surprised by it and didn't reveal it earlier because this is an imperial Star Destroyer that Han has.....

Soo has the Rebel Alliance taken over the Empire and kept all of their stuff? Which would explain why Stormtroopers are still around.
Or is Han with the the Empire now for some reason 8o
 
I'm going with the theory that's loosely based on the SW Legacy series in which, maybe the remnants of the empire is still there and aren't "evil" but these sith inquisitors are trying to regain power somehow.

And I'm cool with Luke being in solitude, as long as he's like the Master Pai Mei in Kill Bill, in where students come to him to learn the force and he trains them wherever he is, instead of him just being in solitude.
 
I'd be cool with that being how they deal with the Empire. Really as long as the Empire isn't the galaxy dominant force it was like in Episodes 3-6 I'll be good.

Yeah. I'm also really amped for the Rebels cartoon too, just to see what kind of seeds they can plant for these movies. I have a good feeling Disney will use that to their full advantage.
 
Han running a Star Destroyer seems perfectly normal, but Stormtroopers I wouldn't agree with. Even with the Empire being disbanded, they shouldn't have Stormtroopers anymore, if they are the "good" guys. To me, Stormtroopers are Empire/bad guys, covering their faces. Hiding identities and such.


And one way or another, there has to be a faction of something. You can't have the Rebellion AND the Empire on the same side, because then who are the Stormtroopers shooting at? Who are they battling in space? A handful of Sith Inquisitors? That's OD.


And I could get with Luke bein isolated and training random force users like Yoda, but I am not ok with him not being seen by Leia or Han in 30 years. That's flat out ******* terrible. They better fix that part of the equation.
 
Clones only turned evil in ROTS after being good for awhile. They're really only bad guys...from a certain point of view >D

Plus, It wouldn't be the first time Troopers were good guys.
 
Yeah that's the worst rumor I've heard about this movie. The other rumor going around is that Luke has been held captive for a while. Which shouldn't happen either imo :lol
 
I meant in terms of a political realm.

Stormtroopers worked for the Empire, were loyal to the empire, did their bidding, blew up planets, etc.

Once they become "merged" with the Rebellion, or however that's going to go down, they don't get to keep their helmets, get new recruits and join the good guys. :lol
At some point, that begins to confuse things as well. Good guys, then bad guys, now good guys again......gets convoluted.

It's SW where the bad guys always have a crap-load of money. If there's anything the PT showed us, it's that C.R.E.A.M. in the galaxy :lol You don't live the good life working for Microsoft and then if some bums from the mall kiosk decide to off Bill Gates, you don't just let them "merge" in and run the company.

If you got the funds, you have the troops. I doubt these Sith Inquisitors are broke and could definitely see these new Stormtroopers working for them and not "the New Order". I could totally be wrong though.

True on the money, but think about that right there, Sith followers, using MONEY to bring in bumbling stormtroopers? :lol

Vader wasn't payin nobody, they listened to him or died. :lol Maybe that's how they run these new troopers, but that would still mean that the Rebellion aspect wouldn't have any sort of helmeted troopers, I don't think.


Part of the rumor is that the troopers are on that ice planet building a new superweapon, so that def puts them on the "bad guy" side, or the side that I'll be rooting for. :lol :hat
 
So when they talk about plot spoilers are they still talking about the hand or?

That inquisitor guy looks creepy as hell
 
All our talking about the Inquisitor, we haven't spoke on whether there's an actual actor in there, or if he's CGI Greivous type character.

Driver has been talked about as the main villain of the movie since January.

Or maybe Serkis 8o 8o 8o

I just know how I want the movie to end.... Do a reverse of The Phantom Menace... Luke Vs two Inquisitors, he takes out at least one of them and survives of course :smokin

Part of my huge desire for the EU was to see a true representation of the Jedi vs the Sith.

Attack of the Clones had a ton of Jedi fighting.........green screens. :|


I want 50 Jedi, and 50 Sith, toe to toe, on screen. In my lifetime, I need that to happen.

Luke vs 2 Inquisitors sounds nice. But I seen that. 500 times already.


I need 50 on 50. Correctly done. For 2 hours. Like The Raid 2, with lightsabers. :lol :hat


Call me Disney, I work cheap.
 
I know, I'm hopin and prayin everyday man.

If I have to write and film the joint myself I'll do it. :lol
