Edit: Nevermind, I found it! Some new footage. Probably a teaser for an upcoming trailer.

[Lord Oda Nobunaga]

If you look on the poster art for Episode 7 it shows John Boyega wielding a blue lightsaber.

First full length trailer released tonight during Monday Night football halftime!

Also, dis

Lol is that Deathstar 3.0 in the background? I think making the same error over and over is the definition of insanity.

Otherwise cool poster.

[Halie Satanus]

No Luke..

[DarthShizNit]

That's no moon...it's an entire ice planet outfitted with enough weapons to take out a solar system. Though whether or not it's a death star, or simply a fortress world, no one knows.

[brandbll]

Pfff, I already know how to destroy it. You just fly down that giant hole and shoot some torpedoes when you get to the middle. This thing is gonna get blown up real quick...

[DarthShizNit]

I loves dat poster so much.

[Wulfburk]

Great poster but yeah, a third death star would be quite a stupid thing. Seriously, try not to recycle every aspect and actually do something new for s sake. Like no freaking death star. Oh and please no end game weapons either, like the clone wars tv show that had 1 per episode...

[DarthShizNit]

Calm your ta-ta's, it's no Death Star yet...

What's really remarkable is how politically correct this poster is - very 21st century; the two main leads being played by a (slightly exotic) woman and a black guy.

I'm betting that girl turns out to be Luke's daughter btw (and then Luke could be that masked Sith guy if they really wanted to recycle old themes)

I think the masked guy is Kylo Ren. The girl is either Luke's daughter or Han's daughter imo. Luke may or may not turn out to be the bad guy or get killed.

Some things that look insanely off putting to me though and other things I noticed:
1. why is John Boyega a jedi
2. is the girl wielding a staff or a rifle
3. that weird CGI creature is scaring me cause it reminds me of Jar Jar
4. that soccer ball robot looks weird
5. why u no Luke?
6. is that an entire planet with a motor or a space station?

Cool Storm Troopers though

[the_mango55]

I think the masked guy is Kylo Ren.

Yes

1. why is John Boyega a jedi

He's not a Jedi... yet. Clearly going to be a Jedi in training, like Luke.

2. is the girl wielding a staff or a rifle

Staff but it looks to have a lightsaber on the end of it like a light spear/halberd or something

3. that weird CGI creature is scaring me cause it reminds me of Jar Jar

Where? What second mark.

4. that soccer ball robot looks weird

BB8 looks awesome

5. why u no Luke?

That's probably luke's hand touching R2

6. is that an entire planet with a motor or a space station?

Nobody knows

EDIT: Oh are you talking about the poster?

Seriously? Just because the main characters are not white males this is PC? Despite nothing we know of the plot emphasizing their race or sex?

[the_mango55]

Uh, what the hell is "slightly exotic" about this person?

Brown eyes?

I'd like to establish a theory, don't open if you don't want to think about it

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Kylo Ren, the one with the red lightsaber, is Luke

When he fights Finn he's got his helmet off and you can clearly see he's got the flowing black locks of Adam Driver

[Lord Oda Nobunaga]

Yes the poster.

I think that either Kylo Ren was trained but then turned on Luke or he's carrying out Luke's orders for some kind of master plan.

Spoiler for I've made a huge mistake:
