Those big ships in that look like the medical frigates seem to be corellian.

That battle might be over Hans home planet.

So we hear Snoke say: "If Skywalker returns, the NEW Jedi will rise."

But then Luke: "the Jedi must END."



So it seems Snoke doesn't have a bead on where Luke's at with what he's doing or not doing. It does seem like he's transcended the established dark/light framework.

I hope we get to learn why he's done this. And how.
He's never had anyone teach him Jedi dogma or rules so perhaps he didn't 'change' but just evolved naturally to this point and maybe he found old texts on it? I'm intrigued.

I could hear it. I also am pretty sure Vader is in there at some point

To be fair, the questions from my kids started when Luke said "Breathe" and ended 2 hours after the trailer ended. It's not like I was able to isolate any audio.

Was wondering about this. With Kathleen Kennedy confirming Leia will not be in episode 9, will they change Luke's fate? If he was to be killed off will they back away from that now to keep him in play? It's fairly certain he makes it out of TLJ anyways.

I know but it's interesting. There's obviously a formula to making a trailer.
