I personally can't wait for the part where she (Bobba Fett) is chasing down Finn (Han Solo).

Announced that an Obi Wan standalone film is going to be made. So far no script or anything, but surely McGregor will be brought back to play him and it will take place between Episodes III and IV.

I've heard some that are tired of Obi Wan's character, but I think a film that takes place when he was in exile could be awesome.

Honestly I wanted a standalone for him ever since they started announcing side story movies; partly because I liked the character but also I thought McGregor was one of the few great things about the prequels and I think he deserves to star in a better SW movie. He's way too good of an actor for the crap Lucas wrote.

That sounds awesome. Don't think it would be the same without McGregor, though, so hopefully he comes back for it. Really the only standalone movie I didn't want was Han Solo and that's one of the ones we got.

Whoever plays Solo has huge shoes to fill

The only way it shouldn't be McGregor is if he turns it down, and he's already publicly said he'd do it (plus the rumor he has a cameo in Episode VIII).

And I can't see how it wouldn't be between III and IV; we already saw a young Kenobi in the prequels.

That's the only time period that would make sense to me.

Who could be tired of Obiwan? I'm all for this.

If you watch Rebels and saw Obiwan's brief appearance you could tell he wasn't as isolated as he let on in A New Hope. My only concern is that the whole thing will/should take place on Tattooine which could be boring.

I would guess it has to be more than just Tattooine; I can't see them making an entire movie of him puttering around there.

Lots of possible storylines.
How Yoda makes it to Dagoba.
The emperor trying to flesh out Luke and Leias whereabouts.

I don't believe either Palpatine or Vader knew of their existence before the Death Star. Vader sensed who Luke was with him in his sights and spared him. Didn't know about a "sister" until their duel on the second Death Star. Be a whole lot of ignoring the original trilogy to go with that plot line.

Being four months out, I would have expected another trailer or two at this point.

I actually appreciate the restrained promotion. I only watched the first teaser and the first full trailer of TFA then actively avoided all other promotions, clips, interviews, etc. made the movie that much more enjoyable.

They have a lot to live up to with Rogue One stealing the show in what is subjectively the best Star Wars film since ESB. Let's face it, R1 was pure badassery from the start and continued all the way to the end with Vader wrecking fools.

I know football actually started so this forum has been a little slow.

The director for Ep IX has left due to "creative differences".

Of course there is rampant speculation that SW franchise is in trouble.

JJ Abrams returning for Ep IX.

Hope he doesn't just remake RotJ. 😜
