Welcome Poe Dameron, Kylo Ren, Rey, Finn and BB-8 to the Star Wars family!
Totally ripped that one from Con Air - Nicolas Cage's character is Cameron Poe. Also, the BB in BB-8 totally stands for beach ball, doesn't it? These Disney folk apparently do have a sense of humour

Andy Serkis will play a Rakata or something similar to them, perhaps someone who learns of there power and secrets. Rakata lived for a very long time, ruled over the Galaxy with an iron fist in the pre-old republic era. Rakata would make a fair amount of sense if they go to an aqua world of mon-calamari and he happened to be there at the same time. This Kylo Ren character apparently played by Adam Driver could be wielding a Forcesaber, thus it's different appearance. The forcesaber were developed by the Rakata before the lightsaber was developed later and separately.
Adam Driver's character was also seen in X-Wing/ Alliance pilot gear and that could mean he is a Solo sibling before he comes into contact with Andy Serkis's character. Either way he could well be with the alliance...
My guess is we've got two different dark side forces at work. The inquisition who chase this Finn too/ from Tatooine in the first act of the movie and Andy Serkis as the mysterious dark force wielder.
Would be interesting too see how many force sensitive characters we have in this film and in the whole sequel trilogy.

Missed the memo 2 years ago where they said the books are irrelevant?
If this isn't the best Lego trailer, then feed me to the Sarlacc...
What and how were crops grown on Tattooine? It is a desert yet Lukes Uncle bitches on about the harvest.
How did the Deathstar move through space. ..I can't see any jets and it doesn't rotate.?

Mark Hamil is now the same age as Sir Alec Guinness was in a New Hope i find that quite freaky.

Crops were grown underground using moisture farmed by moisture farmers like Owen Lars.
On the Death Star will the force do?
Moisture farming. ..I hope they cover that in the new movie with appropriate and up to date Cgi.

If Wedge Antilles doesn't make an appearance in this movie I'll be outraged.

Wedge was the real hero.
First Death Star: Hot shot Skywalker gets all the credit but he would've been shot down 5 minutes in if Wedge hadn't saved his rookie hide. Then Luke only gets his damn shot off because Wedge TOOK A LASER BLAST DIRECTLY TO HIS SHIP. Despite this, he still managed to hold it together unlike anyone else. Solo? Nowhere to be seen until the last 5 seconds.
Hoth: Bloody Skywalker gets shot down within about 8 seconds, meanwhile Wedge BRINGS DOWN A ******* AT-AT with a tow cable. Skywalker had to use a ******* lightsaber. Solo? NOWHERE TO BE SEEN.
After the battle, Skywalker and Solo bugger off while Wedge protects the fleet.
Endor: Who leads the assault on the Death Star? Lando acts like the main man but it's all Wedge. Actually fully operational? No prob. He's got this. Where's Skywalker? Fighting a cripple and an old man. Solo? Chilling in the forest letting the ewoks do most of the work, then let's his ******* girlfriend get shot.
Finally, once the other hacks actually do something for a change and bring down the shields, Wedge is in there within seconds. Lando almost crashes his damn ship. And who takes the shot that actually starts the destruction of the Death Star?
WEDGE MOTHER ******* ANTILLES

Sorry to disappoint you but, Denis Lawson, who played Wedge Antilles in the original trilogy, was asked to reprise his role, but declined, stating that it would have "bored" him.
Luke also refers to BFF Biggs below several times in a New Hope.
I only found out last week reading a Star Wars year by year DK book that scenes involving Luke and Biggs were cut from a New Hope.
Nekminit watch New Hope yday and Luke makes several comments about Biggs but we have no context of him.
Uncle George should have added these instead of the lame looking CGI he added to New Hope....(look at the Jabba -Solo chat...it truly is s**t quality).
In fairness, the battle Endor would've been over within seconds if not for Lando. Only he called for the fleet to break off the attack, Wedge said he had no reading of the shield.
They all would've disintegrated otherwise.

All depends on your point of view.
That must be a prick of a way to earn a living on a planet with two suns.
