May the bullet list be with you:

  • Leia sends an emissary to Rose’s planet who is killed by the “Catapult” weapon of the Empire.
  • The sequence in which Han Solo and Princess meet for the first time in the film is described as “awkward.”
  • She is described as a Queen on the main cast list.
  • At one point she tells Rebel pilot Poe Dameron his squadron is all that survived. He reluctantly obeys her orders.
  • She appears to still be a prominent leader of the Rebel Alliance.
  • Leia wants to know what Finn knows (presumably about the Empire).
  • Towards the middle of the film, in the Map Room of the Rebel Base, Leia has a secret “up her sleeve,” involving her own weapon called “The Sledgehammer” by the production.
  • Without storyboards, “The Sledgehammer” is difficult to understand but appears to be a kamikaze-like craft capable of taking down Star Destroyer sized spacecrafts.
  • Leia is proud of this weapon.
  • Rose tells Leia she thinks the sword found inside BB-8 should be with Finn so Leia hands the lightsaber over to him.
  • Leia and Han still argue.
  • The last thing Han says to Leia before he leaves for the final mission is “I’ll hurry back.”
  • When Kylo and Han meet again, it cuts to Leia who feels “a disturbance in the Force” so to speak.
  • There is no indication she is a Jedi or started upon that path with her brother.
  • Leia is elated when it appears Luke has been found.
  • At the end of the film, Leia and Rey have a special goodbye in which she bids Rey “a fond farewell.”

More from sw7news:

  • The name Rey is Daisy Ridley’s name at the beginning of the film.
  • Rey is an alias to hide her real identity. She might be Solo since she consults Han to find the saber he identifies as his friends.
  • JJ wanted to keep Ridley’s real name secret. Her identity is a setup for a plot twist.
  • BB-8 is Poe’s droid at the opening of the film. (also recently reported by MSW)
  • JK that Poe confronts in the beginning of the movie is listed in the top 10 characters.
  • Han Solo is not in the final group shot wave good bye scene. (also recently reported by MSW)
  • Luke only appears in one scene at the end of the film when Kira returns his saber. (also recently reported by MSW)
  • There is a Young Original Warrior. (also recently reported by MSW)

"It should be worth noting that “Original Warrior” was apparently Luke’s script name in the same vein as “Kira” was for Rey, as both codenames were used at the Skellig Michael shoot if initials are anything to go by. While there’s still reason to question the “Luke is only in one scene” rumor, it’s interesting that our source brought it up here as well. Still I believe there’s something more to this story.

So actually 6 of the stories our source shared with us 2 months ago were backed up by a more detailed descriptions from MakingStarWars. And I guarantee you that our sources are not the same."

I agree, this sort of shocked me but after careful consideration i like the idea. At first I thought to my self "oh no a rehash of the turn bad then good again story  line" but i was told that this was not the main plot outline of this trilogy and that we are goi g to see the true evil natyre of the darkside and this is a quote directly from the idividual/individuals that shared this with me "you will really appreciate what vader means when he keeps saying "if yiu only knew the power of the.darkside" in tHE OT.

Ok, so Kylo Ren is NOT the villian, at least not in this film. Kylo ren is the arc of the trilogy. He is going to be what anakin should have been shown like.with a much diffrrent story and back ground of course

what you see in the trailier us kylo training as a jedi. that scene is his training of confronting the dark side of the force and then be able to move past it.But Ren truly does get seduced by what he findd behind that door. he does not turn to the dark side willingly. according to what im told as part of a jedis training they mudt confront the dark side and as with a drug each time youtoy with it it does indeed make you stronger but thatcomes at a price. you keep toyinh with it it will eventually take you over as with a strong dryg. kylo keeps toying wiyh the dsrk side as it makes him stronger and stronger. his intentions are noble. to ude this strength  to battle evil and help the jedi caude.

he DOES NOT kill ham dolom as a matter of fact kylo tries to save solos life by sacrificing his own in a scene thats much like the ben affleclk bruce willis scene innarmagefdon. kylo stands up and sayd ill be the hero and do this but solo tricks him and says its not your time. thats not a quote from the scene but me exxplaini g it.

kylo ren is a character we grow to truly  love and admirr and we seen this good man suddnly fall into an abysd with a final showdown with luke in episode 9.

hope that spoiler did nkt ruin anything for anyone

 

Ok if this is true then..

1. Who is leading the troops in burning down the village? Also seen in the trailer?

2. Supposadly Kylo Ren is in a flashback where he and a few others murder jedi apprentices.  Who is this person then in that scene?

3. Who kills Han Solo?

I have a hard time believing Mark Hamill would go to to all the time and trouble getting of back into shape just to appear in one scene.

I'd like for this to turn out true, but the numerous typos and lack of links to any other sites giving the same info don't leave me optimistic about it's authenticity.

my apologies about the typos.As far as other sources go as far as i know im the only person who is not a relative that this was shared with. i could be wrong but it comes from a minor person who us affiliated with post production 

As far as who kills Han Solo? Come on nobody can kill Han Solo he goes out in a blaze of glory sacrificing himself to save his friends and into make sute the mission is a success.

I was told this movie is pure classic star wars of old and that people have seen whats completed and left the room in tears not cause of sadnes in the film but cause of how good it is and how they felt they webt back in a time machine to 1983 and walked out of jedi and into this movie.

i don't blame anyone for being skeptical of what i am saying but I promise you this i very trusted.

 Yeah, this rumor is bugging the crap out of me. I could handle him not showing up till late in the film, but the final scene? Get out of here.

Don't like the idea of Leia playing with super weapons, either. Completely against character, if you ask me. She's a flower child at heart.

It would be like Tron Legacy, where the titular character is barely seen in the movie. ;)

 The content I take no responsibility for.  Blame the internet!

The formatting though, is down to the way this board is set up.  Why can't we see the actual BBcode?  Do you have any input on that?

Harrison Ford is in critical condition after crash landing a plane in Venice, Calif. on Thursday, according to several reports.

The 72-year-old crash landed on Penmar Golf Course after something apparently went wrong with the small plane, per reports. Ford was transferred to a local hospital in critical condition with head injuries. The actor was the only one aboard the plane and the only person who sustained injuries.

Ford reportedly walked away from the crash, and was later attended to by two physicians who were on the scene.

Ford is an avid pilot, and has crashed planes before with minimal injuries.

TMZ was the first to report the news about Ford.

Ouch. I glad he's OK though. I had no idea Harrison was a pilot.

Apparently not a very good one, though...

JEDIT: Just so I'm not making fun of a guy in "critical condition," here's the statement from his publicist:

"He was banged up and is in the hospital receiving medical care. The injuries sustained are not life threatening, and he is expected to make a full recovery," she said.

 Given how boxed in Santa Monica airport is by development now, (some locals would like it to see it close) setting down a plane on a golf course without hitting a house, or hurting anyone on the ground is the sign of a damn good pilot to me!

 Well, the quote said "he has crashed planes before."
