Rey particularly.

Does this put the Richard Grant / Obi-Wan rumor to rest? Hopefully :D

If those pics are accurate and mean anything...
Spoiler: show
I'm mixed on Kylo's helmet. On the one hand, I kinda hate that he has it back. Feels like a stupid and unnecessary retcon. On the other hand, I do like the "scarred" and "patchwork" nature of the design.
But ultimately, I'm not sure those pics are very meaningful.

Also, I'll set the over/under on chance there's a title release on Feb 15th at 24%.

I'll take the under.

I’m American and I don’t get it either. I think what he’s saying is that if we were betting, he’d take the odds below the 24%. So if there is a 24% chance of the title revealed on Feb 15th, he takes the under, so he thinks the chance is less than 24%. If you take the over, then you are thinking there is a higher chance of a reveal. I think?

So did a janitor pick up Kylo’s helmet pieces and put them in a bag, then Kylo decided he’d like his helmet back and maintenance fixed it?

Exactly.

I'm just saying that I think there's less than a 24% we get a title on Feb 15th.

It’s the scheduled day for end of filming.
I *think* it’s the same day TLJ finished filming and title was revelead.

It’ll be out before celebration though. There’s no doubt about that.

See this is why I don't like it. Not this exact question per se, but the fact that invites these questions. AND strengthens this idea in the worst parts of the fandom that somehow everyone at Lucas Film and JJ Abrams specifically hates everything Rian did and will use this episode, not to advance and finish the story, but to undo and retcon everything in The Last Jedi.

Obviously, there's plenty of room for this too work, too. But it's the first thing I've heard/seen so far that's got my radar up. It worries me. Not to any major degree, to be sure. But still.

I'd say the odds of it coming before celebration are about 60/40 at this point and the odds shift the other direction with each passing week without a title reveal.

Feb 15 might be the last day of filming. I'll take your word for that. But I don't see why that automatically means it's the same day they drop a title.

It's possible. I just don't know that I personally think it's all that likely. But I also don't really care one way or the other. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong and we'll have something new to talk about. But I don't think I need the title right now the way so many others do.

For those of you who are excited though I do hope I'm wrong.
