    Given how the Yavin 4 set piece from TFA was used for Rogue one, Then put into storage, I could see this as well.

    Nah, JJ makes safe movies. It was never going to be as bad as TLJ. I am guessing that it is going to be a mix of ROTJ and Dark Empire, but soulless by comparison. Think ST Into Darkness bland, not TLJ bad.

    Would make much more sense for this to be Endor given that Palpatine is involved, but it could be that as well.

    DS1 was also orbiting the Yavin gas giant rather than Yavin 4, but i'm not going to pretend that IRL science matters in Star Wars. :p

    Watching the trailer. How much of it makes the leaked poster real?

    That almost looks like something from men in black.

    Meh.

    Rey jumping over Kylo's tie fighter is over the top. Kylo welding his mask back together is silly. Lando looks ridiculous in his old Ep5 outfit.

    Only thing I like is the idea of the Emperor returning.

    Really don't know what to make of this. I still haven't seen The Last Jedi or the Han Solo flick, but given what I've heard from both of them, I have a feeling "The Rise of Skywalker" isn't going to fix all of the mistakes those films made.

    I am pretty sure that was his Solo outfit, not his Episode V outfit. Watch him talk lovingly to the Millennium Falcon. :( 

    Of course not, that'd be pretty much impossible in a single film.

    the good news is that Solo didn't make any mistakes and was a good movie, so SW9 doesn't have to worry about fixing any mistakes there.

    ...wait, they're going to change the new order of Force Users to be called Skywalker/Skywalkers now, aren't they?

    Solo got hit thanks to the suckiness of TLJ. It was a pretty good movie in it's own right.

    Nah, Knight of Ren. They have to have them do SOMETHING in the trilogy.
