Wonder what kind of testing they do... do they go prototype or right to production?

I am literally in tears.

I probably shouldn't chop onions at the computer.

It looks like they padded the walls with foam...probably in case Harrison does another slip and fall when he returns.

I hope that, if true, it's just a new character in the old suit.

Not sure how I feel about the re-designs (if true), but the most important thing is that most of them are real people in costume.

Looking at the helmet again, it looks similar to the red royal guard helmet which is cool.

If that bottom pic turns out to be true I might be out.

Not only should there NOT be storm troopers in this movie, but that's a stupid, stupid design. If they even think they are going to tell us teh empire survived and thrived the last 20 years or so after THE DESTRUCTION of the emipre I'm going to be livid. WTF has been going on for the last 20 years??? It should have been a simple mop up effort. Jar Jar and a freakin' Ewok should have been able to take care of it after all the work Luke put in.

After those two Star Trek movies, Abrams can look George Lucas in the eye and claim that "I was but the learner, now I am the master."

In the EU novels and comics (at least the early ones I read) the Empire still sort of existed, though it had balkanized into a number of small, unorganized territories.

What work? They killed two (admittedly important) leaders and destroyed a giant weapon. How would that make an entire Empire crumble when we learned in the first film that governors throughout the galaxy were given broader rights to rule their own territories? It's illogical.

Who the hell are they suppose to be in conflict with then? If there is no Empire, Empire offshoot, or some Empire generals who said fuck those rebels, then what's the point of the movie?

Episode VII: Galaxy still at peace?

I'm sure a huge Science Fiction universe can come up with more antagonists than an oppressive empire. True, it would take imagination to come up with something new, so we probably won't see that.

Episode VII: Han & Leia's Rehearsal Dinner

Episode VIII: Han & Leia's Wedding

Episode IX: Han & Leia's Reception
FIXED!

We have all been waiting 30 years to see if Han & Leia tied the knot, and now we get a trilogy of that special occasion!!!

Potential Han Solo costume designs. These look a bit fake to me, but here you go:

Spoiler:


The duster gives him a real Malcolm Reynolds vibe.



Snow gear? Hoth again?

Lets hope yet again people can't decide if the Hoth coat is brown or blue.

That trench coat Han reminds me of Mal from Firefly
