I thought it was Palpatine saying “The key…is patience”…and the rest was Hugo Weaving. Or bloody Ross Marquand. Apparently Im wrong on all counts. ---

In my Google News feed I saw speculation that supports a spoiler I saw in a Google News feed (damn it!) before _TBoBF_ came out. The spoiler was that Harrison Ford had reportedly filmed scenes for de-aging for either _TboBF_ or _Obi Wan_. The speculation is that apparently a blaster that looks like Han’s is visible for 0.05 seconds in the trailer. ---

> [@GuanoLad](#): > > Inquisitor-palooza. Yep, it looks like the Imperial Inquisitors from the _Rebels_ animated series are crossing over into live-action canon. Including the whirly lightsabers. I wonder if they’ll use them to do the Mary Poppins bit in the live-action version… ---

A scene in the new trailer makes me wonder if we’re going to see the first time Obi-Wan realized Vader was Anakin. ETA: Although I suppose Palpatine _did_ name him “Lord Vader” before the suit, right?
