Is anyone else starting to worry about this film? I've got a bad feeling about this.

I'll worry once I watch it . If it is a rehash of episode 5 I'll be pissed . Then again, you would expect the FO to have the upper hand in this one on par with most trilogy series .

Why should the First Order still have the upper hand though? I mean how many Death Stars does the Rebellion/Resistance have to blow up to take the lead?

To get their butt kicked again in episode 9

Worried that what I think will happen will happen... I've spent too much time on the SW Leaks subreddit

Well, look.  If Episode 8 is disappointing, at least we only have 5 months to wait until the Han Solo flick.

Oh, wait...

I hope they delay it to Xmas. May is a horrible time of the year to sell sets.

I doubt that happens.  60% of Star Wars is all the merchandise/marketing for the movie, and I assume that is already being produced in mass.  They'll risk having a turkey, than risk pushing back billions upon billions of dollars in merchandise months later.

They did it with R1, right?

I feel like people will be confused with a Star Wars movie so soon after the last one and no new one coming for a year and a half. I don't know if they are testing the waters to see how people would respond to multiple Star Wars movies in a year without actually committing to that. I thought I heard it's because of the Avatar sequels, but it's looking like those are nowhere to be found.

The schedule got changed (cue, "prey I don't alter it any further" line)

Dec 15, 2017 - Ep 8

May 25, 2018 - Han Solo

May 24, 2019 - Ep 9

So, no 1 1/2 years between films.  We get cut from 1 year to 5 months, and then back to 1 year.

Jurassic Movie is released in June so that´s 2 films that we will lose Xmas merchandising on - unless demand is still strong by then.

I dont' think so.  It was the Force Awakens that got moved back, and that was over a year and a half before it was supposed to come out.

My bad.

Topps card - note the sunken X-Wing

So force lifting the X-wing out of the water is going to be part of Rey's training? If this thing turns out mirroring ESB as much as 7 did ANH I'm going to be very disappointed.

Until I see otherwise, this film is TESB 2.0 to me.
