Can't wait until luke skywalker starts laughing and then joker-gasses rey. should be good

 

[Armaros]

So im expecting a Joker style monologue to come out.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Can't wait until luke skywalker starts laughing and then joker-gasses rey. should be good

I'd like for this to happen. I'd probably enjoy the movie more.

 

[WickedLaharl]

 

[devilhawk]

He's a pretty solid twitter follow

 

[Farsi]

I can't wait until December, it's going to be a great moment seeing Luke turn heel.

 

[DopeyFish]

well... luke was basically a leader of a terrorist group in the OT

 

[jayu26]

Hmm, an interesting observation.

So long suckers! *dashes into Millennium Falcon and flies away*

 

[Mariolee]

Uh I havent watched the new trailer due to media blackout...is this a spoiler? I'm pretty sure it was a joke but my friend keeps talking about one of his theories being confirmed.

 

[Soodanim]

OP went full clickbait with the title.

Such a great scene

 

[Sheroking]

Uh I havent watched the new trailer due to media blackout...is this a spoiler?

No.

He's screwing around with people who are reading too much into the poster.

 

[Gastone]

Luke turning full blown dark side, killing Rey and helping end the resistance in EP 9 would be the best thing ever!

 

[NeOak]

No

 

[TP-DK]

Where is this from?

 

[SomewhatGroovy]

Title could have been better for those of us staying in the dark.

Wouldn't an answer to this be a spoiler for you?

 

[Briarios]

I ... What? Staying in dark from what? Hamill's sense of humor?

 

[jwk94]

Don't believe his lies!

"If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny"
- Yoda

I always thought Luke was on the dark path when he fought vader in 'Jedi'.

 

[Jintor]

Where is this from?

i think it's the flash. Mark Hamil plays the Trickster, who is another character's secret dad.

It's a pretty ace bit of metafiction not only cos of the star wars reference but also because Mark played the Trickster back in the old live-action Flash show and he is the voice of the joker, which is kinda like the trickster but way better

 

[Alpha Centauri]

This is great. Reminds me of how Daniel is the bad guy in Karate Kid.

 

[Count Dookkake]

.

 

[jack_package_200]

Where is this from?

CW The Flash

 

[Syriel]

OP went full clickbait with the title.

Such a great scene

Title is a direct quote.

But yeah, he's just having fun with hardcore fanboys and "youtube analysis" folks.

 

[MMarston]

Dude killed hundreds of thousands of innocent workers on the Death Star.

 

[SomewhatGroovy]

I ... What? Staying in dark from what? Hamill's sense of humor?

He’s funny. Great. Now where does this conversation go?

He’s known to be sarcastic so the line here leaves in doubt that the first teaser trailer that ends with his lines about the Jedi is a red herring does it not?

 

[Randy Monk]

This is great. Reminds me of how Daniel is the bad guy in Karate Kid.

he isn't?

Karate Kid is a much better film through the lens of Johnny being the anti-hero

 

[Joeku]

Ah, so Kylo turns good and Luke turns bad in TLJ, got it.

 

[night814]

Hmm, an interesting observation.

Fake news.

 

[Laieon]

There was violence on both sides. Both sides.

 

[yanipheonu]

He's playing us like a damn fiddle!!

 

[GAMEPROFF]

oh, he posted the 5 years old internet meme.

 

[kevin1025]

 

[grandjedi6]

So the villain in episode 2 is the Sun?

 

[JCHandsom]

Confirmed?

 

[carlsojo]

Rey is going to try to leave training early and Luke is gonna be all like nah. And then try to kill her and spend the rest of the movie hunting her.

 

[SoulUnison]

That "poster villain looming" point has me legitimately thinking, though.
There has to be a big "I'm your father"-level twist in the second movie of the 3, just so it can be poetry and rhyme and yadda yadda.

I wonder if Luke's actually become sort of extremist for the light side rather than the idea of bringing balance to the Force.

The only thing harder than standing up to a villain is standing up to your "hero."

 

[Somewhat Damaged]

Thanks for the spoiler in the thread title...

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Thanks for the spoiler in the thread title...

Quick, where is the reply button, I have read nothing but have to post something

 

[Roronoa Zoro]

Where is this from?

The Flash CW series. He plays the Trickster just like he did in the 1990 show of the Flash. He is mentoring a young trickster who asks "why me?" and Hamil goes full joker voice

 

[Somewhat Damaged]

If Luke was really a villain he wouldn't have said anything. This confirms Luke stays a good guy...

Tell me if I'm wrong:

Spoiler

Wasn't that only a lie and he was just using the kid?

That's what Mark Hamill would want you to think

There wasn't one in AotC. The equivalent was in RotS.

Nothing is confirmed, chill out.

i dunno, but that's fine too

 

[UltraMav]

This would be an interesting plot point. Like he failed in bringing peace to the galaxy and training a new Jedi order so he sees another super force warrior on the loose and decides he has to put her down, in the name of “the light side.”
