C-3PO has a frigging bowcaster and the triangle-TIE looks ridiculous.

Absurd speculation: Perhaps it is actually HK-47 disguised in a 3PO skin, preparing to become canon again!

No. No it is not.

Yep, I said as much.

Maybe it's a prototype that wasn't meant to be leaked. Like some of the stuff in there is just jokes or whimsy they poster maker threw in.

It's a TIE-Riangle.

It's kinda impossible to tell at this stage, but it doesn't seem too far fetched to think this is real. while lacking in pixels, the image does have a lot of the hallmarks of a typical star wars poster. Weird ship designs are nothing new, a lot of the ones fans on this forum love make younger people scratch their head. I know plenty of people who think the Otana looks weird, while others can't fathom Star Wars existing without it. If that tie is in there, you can bet it's gonna be somebodies favorite right away. As for 3PO packin heat, well weirder stuff has happened. like the time his head got removed and attached to a battle droid body, and went out to that arena to fight, all completely on accident. 3PO is basically a walking punch line, so maybe he has to fire the bowcaster for some reason, but gets sent flying like he just used the MIB's Noisy Cricket.

Absolutely funny how everyone said that JJ would give Kylo the helmet back to spite Rian Johnson's spiting of the box he wrote him in by breaking the helmet as another sign of his frustration! That's the way to go JJ!

And I am sort of "meh, no opinions, really" as to the quality of the sequel trilogy, especially since we know how it ends but OH MY GOD THE KNIGHTS OF REN HAVE A POSSIBILITY OF MAKING AN APPEARANCE, CAN WE HAVE AN AMEN FOR I4 1 FORCE GENERIC SILENCERS/FO INTERCEPTORS?

I was hoping for some explanation on the knights of Ren before. Now I have some hope. Not a lot of hope. But some.

Kylo Ren discarding the helmet and seeming to try and become his own person instead of copying Darth Vader was one of the few redeeming ideas in TLJ. IMO.

I've enjoyed that aspect, too. Was hoping it would be carried to a conclusion instead of "**** it, I'm the emperor now!"

No, I think it'll be an actual scene in the movie:

<As the crew is hiking across some world, C-3PO is falling behind, and Chewbacca is waiting impatiently for him.>

Chewbacca: <Impatient grunting>

C-3PO: I am doing the best I can!

Chewbacca: <mocking insult>

C-3PO: I must insist that you cease your insults, or I fear I shall become uncivil.

Chewbacca: <confused growl>

C-3PO: You heard me perfectly well! Now just be patient, you great oaf!

Chewbacca: <irritated rumble>

<Chewbacca approaches C-3PO, casting a shadow over him, and flexes menacingly>

C-3PO: Oh...oh my.

-----later-----

<At the Resistance camp, C-3PO emerges from the woods alone, carrying a bowcaster and bandolier, and wearing a wookie-skin cloak.>

C-3PO: Greetings. Chewbacca, ah, had to visit his family for Life Day, and said we should, uh, go on without him and never try contacting him again.

Looks fake indeed. I saw this TIE Triangle somewhere years ago.

End credits scene, C-3PO sits alone aboard the Falcon, at the table where he and Chewie once played together on their way to Alderan. He seems to be examining the Bowcaster that he has placed on the table. Rey walks into frame and looks at 3PO with concern.

Rey: Are you alright 3PO? What's on your mind?

C-3PO: I thought master Solo said you should always allow a Wookie to be victorious. It would seem he miss-calculated.

That would certainly be an unexpected way to end the trilogy!

unless they are bringing back the Clone Troopers... this looks totally fake.

Are clones being implied somewhere on the poster? I'm not following you there.

The lead trooper (in the front and middle of the formation) looks awfully Clone-ish. Might just be me, though...

Could be a Clone, but I figured it was just another First Order commander that wanted to look special. Like Phasma and her chrome job, or that one in Gold from Resistance (I don't know who that is, haven't watched that show yet)

I am also feeling the the Knights of Ren were (unfortunately) written out of the trilogy, or more like thrown away (like other TFA concepts) by Ryan, as well as Kylo's Helmet. I would be very surprised if they show up in Episode IX

You sir just won the internet for today! Congratulations.

That Interceptor design could be cool if they integrate something similar to S-Foils on it. Close the blades for speed, then open them into a more traditional style for combat.

More to the point.. that image is so busy and why has Finn got his back turned - an ode to his turn on the First Order? Where did Tico go!

She died from The Snap. Wait, wrong Disney franchise.

Maybe we'll get something new from Hux. After getting thrown around repeatedly by Kylo and losing the last shred of his dignity, he'll realize just how wrong he was to leave his wife to pursue galactic conquest. So, he'll head back to Shell Cottage, apologize to Fleur, and try to rebuild the simple, wizarding life he used to have.

@Pa Weasley Is this sort of "Percy-ism" a typical thing that runs through your family? Or is this First-Order fever-dream like fanaticism the effect of being a partial werewolf?

This looks like a "Robert Cop" knockoff poster. I'm hugely skeptical this is anything from Lucas/Disney.

this. this appears to be a marketing item instead of a full fledged poster. for one, movie posters are subject to rules and stuff about how they can be formatted and specific text that has to be included.

Unfortunately Bill got one of my old muggle computters working and started watching questionable YouTube videos.
