15 Big Questions We Have About The "Last Jedi" Trailer

Will there be an opening crawl?!?!

Guys, the first trailer for The Last Jedi premiered today at Star Wars Celebration, and booooy does it look damn good. In case you missed it, here it is:

But we have SEVERAL questions and December is a long time to wait for them to be answered.

1. Why is Kylo Ren's mask broken?

Lucasfilm

Did he have another hissy fit and just SMASH it?! Or does a certain someone (*cough* Rey) do this?

2. Are these the Journals of the Whills?!?!

Lucasfilm

As briefly mentioned in Rogue One, Baze and Chirrut were once Guardians of the Whills – now, the Whills, for those who don't know, are these kind of ~mystical~ beings who were deeply tied to the Force. And in Star Wars lore, The Journal of the Whills was a legendary record of events in the galaxy. So...it could be?! They look old.

3. What's with this star/logo that appears to be on The Journal of the Whills?

Lucasfilm

Is this an old Jedi symbol?

4. Or is it just an Easter egg?

LucasFilm

The glare on the original A New Hope poster and The Last Jedi looks a lot like the symbol that's in the book.

5. After the Rebellion's base was discovered by the First Order, did they just move their operations to a battleship?

Lucasfilm

Both General Leia and Poe appear to be on a rather large ship.

6. What's going on here with Finn?

Lucasfilm

Clearly, this is no bacta tank.

7. Do these ships belong to the Resistance?

Lucasfilm

Because they're clearly going into battle with the New Order — you can see the AT-ATs in the distance.

8. And why are they (purposefully?) kicking up the cool red dirt from the ground?

Lucasfilm

9. What is going on in this scene with the Millennium Falcon?

Lucasfilm

Does this mean the First Order was able to figure out where Luke was hiding? And how? They didn't ever get the map.

10. Does this shot mean Rey was having visions of the future in The Force Awakens?

Lucasfilm

Because it looks like we're seeing a different angle of what she saw.

11. And what exactly are Luke and R2-D2 looking at here?

Lucasfilm

What's been destroyed?

12. Are they going to explain how Captain Phasma got off Starkiller Base?

Lucasfilm

Because that is definitely her.

13. Does Rey actually get to keep Luke/Anakin's lightsaber?!

Lucasfilm

We saw her try to hand it to Luke at the end of The Force Awakens, so does he refuse? Maybe he still has his green one from Jedi and/or he feels it doesn't belong to him anymore.

14. Why does Luke want the Jedi to end?

Lucasfilm

And is HE going to be the one to end it? What's the plan here?

15. And finally, will this affect the opening crawl?

Lucasfilm

Because it looks like The Last Jedi picks up RIGHT where The Force Awakens left off — so what would be left to "recap" in the crawl?
