Who is Kylo Ren? Let the speculation begin!
Who is Kylo Ren? Let the speculation begin! Entertainment weekly kicked off speculation on the origin of the new villain in The Force Awakens movie, Kylo Ren. The magazine hints that Ren is not his real name and that “we may soon find out who his parents are”. Ew.com says that Ren seems to be a “Vader obsessive, with an appearance influenced by that dark lord of the Sith who met his demise long before Ren’s birth”. So here is my speculation of what Kylo Ren might be. Is Kylo Ren the son of Emperor Palpatine (a.k.a Darth Sidious)? After all who killed the Emperor? That would be an obvious reason for his Vader obsession and that can explain why he’s after Luke and Leia because they are Vader’s (Anakin’s) children. Could Ren be the child of either Luke or Leia? If Luke is his dad, there could be some classic father/son issues-there is a familiar George Lucas pattern of son vs. father. If he is Han & Leia’s child, he might be rebelling (no pun intended) against his parents’ politics. Finally, he might be the offspring of a high-ranking Imperial leader. His obsession could be similar to #1 above. What do you think?...

New photos of The Force Awakens!
New photos of The Force Awakens! Entertainment Weekly has published new still photos of the characters from The Force Awakens. These exclusive photos will show some of the characters more clearly than before, as well as other details about the movie sets and scenes. This first one is a still image of the notorious General Hux, the most clear photo we have to date: Next is the droid due that we all know and love R2-D2 and C-3PO. Although R2 doesn’t appear to have changed in any way, C-3PO has because of the new (unexplained) red arm: Next here is a new picture of BB-8 trapped in a net from a scavenger and then is rescued by Rey. Plus who is the strange creature that the scavenger is riding on? Next is one of Finn the rogue Stormtrooper running from the wreckage of a crashed Tie fighter. Yes we’ve seen him running before, but not from the Tie fighter that he crashed while escaping the Empire: The last one is the Sith Lord Kylo Ren (who wields the cross guard lightsaber) accompanied by First Order Imperial Sandtroopers: You can see the entire gallery...

New first order footage of The Force Awakens from Korea
New first order footage of The Force Awakens from Korea The Star Wars world is buzzing today because of a new international trailer for The Force Awakens. The trailer first aired in Korea. Here is the video of this new trailer: Since watching this video it appears to be much revealing than the two teaser trailer videos. For example, the earlier trailers were somewhat dark, which made it tough to see Captain Phasma clearly. Now you get a really good look at her. New Imperial Walkers, similar to the AT-TE Walkers from the Clone Wars, are also featured in this new trailer. They show a reversed view of the army as well as the platform, surrounded by an icy landscape of mountains (a new planet most likely). The rest of the trailer is familiar...
