was that an official trailer? It seems like there was some new footage in there, but it says fan made edit. And the luke thing looked like one of the stills.

i don't think that's official, especially because of the non-star warsy music. and yea, i feel like we've seen that glimpse of luke before.

just get me to the 18th already..

If nothing else it was a nicely done edit. Everything has that feel of epic wonder that we're all hoping the movie captures.

It is weird to me thinking of Luke as this amazingly powerful badass. He is always the underdog in the OT, learning to use his powers, eclipsed by Vader and the Emperor and Yoda and Obi Wan (though that's a team of heavy hitters). And since they so dramatically upped the flashy powers of the jedi in the prequels it only increases that perception.

Yeah, I think that image of Luke was created artificially.

It's nicely done though.

Is there new footage, or have we gotten enough TV spots with a second of new footage here or there that we can't keep track?

I don't think there's new dialogue. I just wasn't sure about a handful of the shots.

That's bullshit then. They're probably still working on it for all we know.

I like how there's even a really shitty and super grainy shot of some creature we haven't seen before in the trailers. I think it's from a magazine or something. It flashes by super quick but it doesn't look anything like the other footage.

That's from a TV spot that aired during the AMAs according to Reddit.

So, yeah, I guess it's not new dialogue, buddy. Sorry.

I haven't watched all the tv spots, so I have no idea.
