Star Wars: The Force Awakens Trailer Breakdown And Analysis

This past Monday, Disney, Lucasfilm and director J.J. Abrams unleashed what's being called the final trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and damn near broke the internet in the process. Fans were left so excited by what they saw that the surge in pre-sales for IMAX screenings shattered records, and caused several sites to crash.

Following some lovely aerial dogfight shots, we come to a moment that’s had fans hiking up the speculation dials to 11. On first glance it just looks like your average bro-down moment before two friends head into battle… but are these guys friends? The look Finn gives Dameron when he passes him may suggest there’s something else going on here.

As I mentioned earlier, we know Poe Dameron will be Kylo Ren’s prisoner at some point in the movie, just as we know Fin started out as one of the villain’s soldiers. Poe wouldn’t know Finn without his Stormtrooper helmet, but what if Finn is only too aware of who the X-Wing pilot is and is in some way responsible for his capture?

Big-time speculation, but food for thought.
