So, we have an actual trailer for the Force Awakens. It looks like JJ Abrams has the feel of the original trilogy figured out.
I’m not even going to warn you that there are spoilers ahead. Well, I guess I just did. With my obligation thus fulfilled, let’s get to it.
That’s a Star Destroyer crashed in the desert, with a dead X-Wing in the foreground. Notice the rounded turbines: that’s an old-school model, not one of the new ones. The battle must have taken place during the original trilogy.
Kylo Ren, the new bad guy. The mask reminds me of Darth Revan, from the one good Star Wars video game. His lightsaber looks downright dangerous.
I think that’s Leia receiving the lightsaber. Notice the resemblance to Luke Skywalker’s first lightsaber, which he lost in the Empire Strikes Back. The person handing it over appears to be an alien.
