Well Star Wars VIII has a name Star Wars- The Last Jedi. Sounds good to me. Now I'm looking forward to any trailers and added information on this one.

I'm curious to how they will handle Carrie Fisher's death? I'm not thrilled about that title it's like they want to end the Jedi order to me.

I am too curious as to how Carrie Fisher's death is going to be handled. I read she had completed her filming for this movie and was to be in episode IX. They'll certainly have to do some rewriting to explain her future absence.
The title's meaning can go so many places. I don't know if it means Luke Skywalker or Rey? I hope Luke Skywalker makes it to episode IX.
BG, what are you most looking forward to in the coming movie, if anything?
For me I'm interest in seeing who Snoke it. I hope he is an actual human-sized person and a new one at that. I'm hoping Rey is not related to anyone already in the Star Wars universe of note. More Captain Phasma, more ,more, more. Also interested in seeing how Kylo Ren develops. I hope he eclipses Darth Vader and grows as a character in his own right.

With the first movie kinda sucking I'm not holding too much hope with this one. I'm at a wait and see if the trailer can tease me to getting pumped up about it. Rogue One set a higher bar that they need to up their game for me to get excited about it.

I'll be watching but like I said before I'm not as hyped like the ones from the past. Hopefully they do a much better job on this movie or they could lose me.

New Star Wars toys being released. I'm digging Phasma, the Stormtroopers, Kylo Ren, and those Praetorian Guards. From what I've seen it looks as if the Snoke figure will tower over his guards. Interesting. I kinda like the Praetorian Guard. They look kinda goofy but cool at the same time. Unlike the Emperor's Royal Guards from Return of the Jedi, hopefully we'll see them in action.

Lets hope the second one gets going cause I'm not a fan of the of the first. This cast just isn't grabbing me.

I saw it tonight. I have to say I don't know what to think of this. No spoilers this early for those of you who haven't seen it. I need to digest this .

I saw it again today to really cement my opinion. I have to say I liked it more the second time around but I still have some major issues with it. Spoilers! My biggest gripe was the play on Captain Phasma. She's my favorite character so much of my hate comes from the lack of use of this character. I hope she survives and makes it to Episode IX. I read the book on her and got her 4 issue comic about her actions that lead to this movie. For all of that and to have so little of her in this film highly disappointed me. I was shocked with the death of Snoke without learning anything about him. I did like the fight with the Praetorian Guards and the kamikaze on Snoke's ship, the Supremacy. I liked the development of Kylo Ren and Rey. I had wished she would have joined him, even temporarily as rulers of the First Order. I'm glad General Hux got more screen time (unlike Phasma) but sometimes thought he was played as a fool and not a general with some competence. Not much use of the Stormtroopers in general wish I didn't like. I'm okay with the fate of Luke Skywalker but thought he should have lived until Episode IX. Poe, Finn, and Rey were fine. I hated the Star Wars version of Monte Carlo. Pointless, time that could have been spend building other characters. The Benico Del Toro character was fine but kinda pointless overall. BB8 operating the AT-ST was dumb as well as all the newfound force powers such as Yoda striking lightning. Why wouldn't Yoda just kill Kylo Ren if he can shoot lighting? Leia flying was silly. Just a lot of major and minor nitpicks. Overall worth seeing. I liked The Force Awakens more and hope Episode IX is better with less plot holes.

I saw it just after Christmas. I was split on it. I like some of it but hated other parts. Snokes death was a shock and I wanted Rey to join Kylo but that didn’t happen. Yeah, they ruined Phasma again. I was so sad when Luke died. I did like the Porgs and Chewbacca. I didn’t care for Canto Bight at all.
