Interesting.

Is that not the context in the other trailer? I must have been connecting my own dots.
The other trailer never clarified what the "it" he was referring to was. If I'm not mistaken, it followed a line about there being "stories," which I assumed referenced the events of the OT.
in the last trailer, didn't han say, "the jedi.. the force.. all of it"?

I thought so. But I just watched it on YouTube and... he does not.

He does say Jedi and dark side so the force is a pretty obvious connection to make

Han's implication seemed pretty clear in both trailers.

I just gave this a better watch and I definitely like the US trailer better, but everything about this still looks great.

The ship sequences look absurdly good. It feels like a melee

To be fair, he says "the dark side, the Jedi, they're real" after a title break and still seemingly in reference to "stories about what happened." To me, that still bears a very different connotation that Han saying The Force itself is "all true."

Right, yes. Exactly. But he doesn't say Force.

Keep working through this, guys. Eventually you'll figure out what he meant by that very cryptic line.

While I think you're a goddamn idiot for thinking the other trailer is better, I agree that the ship sequences DO look absurdly good.

I mean, maybe LV is speaking for the 7 people that haven't watched the OT, or people that eat rocks for breakfast?

I tried to open up to you. I tried to show you love. If seeing me get punched in the head will help us heal then goddammit someone hit me.
