First, watch the trailer for "The Last Jedi." I beg you, make time for it because it's all we have. Then, let's dissect and speculate!

Hey gurl, heeeeey
Our first shot of Rey seems to pick up right where we left her -- sort of. Daisy Ridley, who plays Rey, spoke a bit about the film on Friday at a Star Wars Celebration panel in Orlando, Florida.
"What is very apparent (from the beginning of 'Last Jedi') is Rey has a certain expectation as to what she might be getting from Luke and what that might entail," Ridley said.

Island life
This is where Luke and Rey are currently and I have a question: What do they eat?
It does look more inviting than Dagobah though.

Do it
I know it doesn't really fit, but I definitely hear the beginning of "Immigrant Song" here (maybe because we just heard it epically used in another new trailer?) Looks like Rey is about to lay down the law on the universe here.

The Force
Seems to me he's training her to learn to use the Force? I'd say he's the Yoda to her Luke. You can hear his voiceover: "Now, reach out. What do you see?"

'Light'
Seriously if this shot doesn't remind you of Vader, you're cray. If you listen closely, you can hear what sounds like Leia in the background. Anyone have some good headphones they can lend me to hear this better?

'Darkness'
Who hurt you Kylo Ren?! Or rather, your mask.
Because yes, this is Kylo's mask and not Vader's as it looks at first glance. Feel a bit of rage coming on, Kylo?

'Train, you will'
Is this Luke's room? (Where does he sleep?) If yes, then he has quite the minimalist streak with just a few books -- Jedi tomes?? -- on a well-placed shelf.
You can also hear Yoda in the background saying "Train, you will."

'The balance'
Running a hand over the Jedi symbol, we hear Rey finish her answer. The balance has been in jeopardy for quite some time. Is Rey the one to bring the universe back into balance? Wait, is that even Rey's hand? Gloved like that it I imagine it could be Luke's or even Finn's.

'It's so much bigger'
Rey trains with a lightsaber as Luke looks on. Again, assuming that's Luke because who else is on this island?

AT-ATs!

Finn lives!
I realize it doesn't quite look like it, but at the same Celebration panel, John Boyega confirmed his character lives. Sounds like he and his boy Poe are gonna go galavanting!

Poe+BB-8=BFF
Are you running to Finn?! Please be running to Finn. He needs you.

Boom
Quick cut from the base run, to the best friends nearly exploding in the hangar. (I like to watch the previous two cuts in reverse though, and imagine Poe was running to Finn.)

Whoosh
OK, so the Millennium Falcon is back in action, but who's driving?! Part of me wants to say it's safe to assume Chewie is on board, but all these assumptions are starting to pile up and worry me.

Fast Rey is fast
Is running with a lightsaber part of Rey's training? Man, that seems way worse than running with scissors.

*Glower*
Without his mask, Kylo Ren looks way less imposing. That hilted lightsaber still looks just as dangerous though.

Help me, R2-D2
This looks like the exact R2-D2+Luke scene we saw in "Force Awakens" in Rey's Force-flash. The pair are likely in front of either the first Jedi temple, or surveying the aftermath of Ben Solo-turned-Kylo Ren's purging of the Jedi.

Knights of Ren?
Could it be ... a flashback? (A Force-flash?) We know the Knights of Ren wrecked havoc once Kylo spilt from his uncle's thumb, but haven't really gotten much at all about what really happened.

Pew pew
An interstellar fight ensues -- but where and why? The planet doesn't give us a whole lot to work with, but I'll keep digging.

The end
"I only know one truth. It's time for the Jedi to end."
Oh cool, thanks for clearing that up, Luke. Now what?!?
