Are you familiar with any Expanded Universe content?Absolute power corrupts absolutely, though. The most tragic madmen are the ones who do start out doing it for the Good of Mankind (or Alienkind, or whatever). How wack would Star Wars be if Kasdan hadn't turned Lucas' original story on its head and made Vader Anakin? Absolute falls come before absolute redemption, though.
With the right touch, it would supercede Empires Strikes Back. JJ ain't the person to do something that deep, though.It'll be what it will be, popcorn entertainment which will satisfy millions. But it won't be that something special making folks go 'damn'.
First Look At Star Wars Episode VII's Villain Revealed!

The Media scene in V is for Vendetta is the clue
I actually envision him as a wise Jedi Master like Obi training a new crop of force sensitive Jedi's. Based on all the photos, he looks just like that:
Ok, in that photo, he's too cuddly and bear like to be a villain.
Damn, youth is fleeting.

I thought the EU was de-canonized?
More concept art pictures leaked:
This is definitely going to be Gwendoline Christie's(the female knight in Game of Thrones) character.
Yeah it definitely is. I was just going to ask, since you would be in favour of Luke falling to the dark side in VII, what did you think of that plot arc when it happened in the EU?

There are rumors he will be a reformed storm Tropper but I think he's going to be a Force Sensative Jedi Luke will train. The Female hero will be Han and Leia's daughter. I also think Han and Leia will have a son that turns Darkside (Nod to the EU). Darth Luke isnt' happening, I think it's a spin rumor.

It wouldn't be more Epic than "I am your father" on "Empire", it was be so forced and a retread of Darth Vader's storyline to have his son now turn. Sorry that's weak writing and Kasdan help to write "Episode VII" remember these are "Lucas's" people. Kathleen who is the Executive Producer and Kasdan, they are there specifically for one purpose and one purpose only.To make sure Lucas Vision stays intact while Disney has taken over. They gave JJ his space but don't think again there aren't boundaries JJ is working around.
This will always be Lucas's property while he's alive, when he passes away that's a different story but while he's breathing nothing Star Wars related is going on that screen without his final say. Lucas maybe "Retired" but don't think for one second he's not pulling some strings behind the scenes. The final script was not approved until Lucas saw it himself. That Luke twist is not something I see Lucas writing. If anyone turns it will be the next Generation of Skywalkers as or Han and Leia's children or even Luke's children if he has any.
Agreed, especially with the bolded. I'd much rather have Luke as grand master, and mentor to JB, and the villain be the Solo son.

I'd rather have the villain be none of the main characters or their sons/daughters/friends/pets. That would only make the universe smaller because you're building all events around the same three people. Same goes for the planets, if these motherfukkers visit the same five locations from the previous movies and not explore some new worlds I'm gonna be mad.

I agree but the Episodes do deal with the struggle of the Skywalker Family. So it's only right to have someone in the family fall to the Darkside again but these Luke rumors, Sorry makes no sense.

these posters are TRASH
I agree. He had every reason to turn to the darkside in ROJ and didn't do it. Dude took on 2 sith lords at the same time and didn't turn, what would make him do it after that?

Tatoonie will return cause it's been in 5 of the previous 6 movies. But I want some new planets also. Let's see how Big this galaxy really is. I love the new Planets Lucas showed in the prequels.
