So it seems episode 8 will somehow pick up exactly where it left off, with rey and Luke staring at each other..

this goes against the established SW format but Daisy Ridley confirmed that that's where we'll pick up, at least with them.

We need to see that first conversation. We've been waiting 30 years to see Luke again so there's a huge importance in being able to see that conversation.

How the devil they're gonna do it though and break away from the classic opening shot in space with a huge ship is another thing..

it can pick up there, but the movie can also start elsewhere in the galaxy.

Or it can just break the mold. There's no law saying it has to start with a big ship in space.

my idea

if the first scene in Ep.8 is Rey&Luke maybe the opening shot will still be the classic star destroyer in space but maybe its followed her there on the Falcon somehow & they send a landing party to the planet after her to capture her&Luke and they both beat a hasty retreat on the Falcon w/ Chewie&R2? itd be a fairly action packed opening..just an idea..

Or the empire just burns them down and luke is dead and the show is over.

RIP Star Wars :peace:

That would be the worst title in the history of Star Wars, including that ewok movie

Actually of all the cities I can think of top of my head it's probably the most like a Star Wars planet. Looks Naboo ish.
