I really wish I could stop looking at all the leaks for this film..... but I can't. I looked at the photo of Luke the other day and immediately regretted looking. I saw it on my phone and instantly said "Oh I shouldn't have looked at Luke Skywalker". My pact with myself was that I would go into this film unspoiled, but I failed miserably right off the bat and haven't looked back since. Oh well I guess...

From the moment Kylo Ren first ignited his vicious-looking broadsaber in the first teaser for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, fans have speculated about the true nature of the character, this mysterious Knight Of Ren. Why is his lightsaber so ragged? Why is his title not 'Darth'? The answer to the latter, it turns out, is actually very simple, as some fans had already surmised. "Kylo Ren is not a Sith," confirms JJ Abrams in the new issue of Empire. "He works under Supreme Leader Snoke, who is a powerful figure on the Dark Side of the Force.”

Snoke, you will recall, is a performance-captured digital character played by Andy Serkis, who can be heard growling the voiceover on the first teaser. Aside from shedding a little light on Ren’s origins, Abrams gave some background on the state of the universe when The Force Awakens begins, including the origins of the First Order, who are not quite the Imperial remnant many had taken them to be.

“That all came out of conversations about what would have happened if the Nazis all went to Argentina but then started working together again?’” Abrams reveals. “What could be born of that? Could The First Order exist as a group that actually admired The Empire? Could the work of The Empire be seen as unfulfilled? And could Vader be a martyr? Could there be a need to see through what didn’t get done?”

Went to Target today and they have a whole Star Wars section and toy aisles.

How have they not always had these? Seems like perfect match.

We also found BB8. His head moves and he makes noises. My 4 year old was very impressed.

Those BB-8 store displays are going to be a serious collectors item.

First preview screenings will be at 7pm on the 17th. Expected, but nice to get confirmation. I would assume tickets are going on sale relatively soon (latest rumor is 10/19).

Sounds like the original theatrical cuts for the OT may be coming to Blu-Ray. If it's true (holding my breath bc it seems legit) than this is huge news.

Why would John Landis know anything about this?

I'm gonna go ahead & say it. The more images we see of Kylo Ren's costume & concept, the more I'm beginning to think I like his design, mask, & sword even better than Vader's. There. Got it off my chest.
