So I'm getting a strong Thrawn vibe from this motherfucker.
You think they're actually gonna go there?
Ripping off EU shit is what they do best
we haven't even heard him speak
pretty sure you're seeing what you want to see
not canon btw
>>67986857
The white suit is a pretty big hint that he's at least partially inspired by Thrawn.

You mean Mitth'raw'nuruododoopooshit?
>>67986857
>pretty sure you're seeing what you want to see
Not really. EU's not canon, but you can bet your ass ideas from the EU are gonna crop up.
Hell, pic related ended up becoming inspiration for Starkiller Base, at least in its destructive magnitude.

or that they wanted to distinguish him visually from tarkin while still looking clearly like a grand moff and fitting the muted aesthetic of the empire.
also, it might just be the lighting, but his suit doesn't look quite white either. it looks a very light grey.
>>67986791
He's officially an admiral, so it could be.
Trailer put a lot of emphasis on that shot. It really does look similar to >>67986928.
I seriously doubt he's Thrawn himself, but I'd bet money he'll have a similar, if not identical, personality.
>>67987055
did they need inspiration to come up with the idea of a death star that blows up several planets instead of one?
i believe you but that's kind of pathetic
>>67986928
It's a standard Grand Admiral uniform.
Does he feel in charge?
Whoever he is, he's no match for the gender-balanced diversity crew assigned to stopping him.
>>67986791
is that a evil white man i see?
>>67986791
>whitewashing thrawn
fucking racist shitlords
>>67987177
What's even funnier is that Sun Crusher is the size of a fucking starfighter.
>>67986791
Could be a Grand Admiral. Could be ISB. I also read he could be a Bevel Lemelisk type.
Given that we see him on the beach during an attack, I'm going to say the latter isn't correct. Given the spy/heist nature of it all, I think the ISB could be interesting.
Would you watch a film or meme about meme cat?
>>67986791
lol
looks like whiteness level corresponds with your position in the Much Evil Empire - the higher you sit the whiter it gets
>>67986791
Anyone know the actors name? I know I've seen him in something recently but can't figure out what it was. I want to get an idea of what this guy's acting range is.
>>67987111
>looks a very light grey
Looks white to me. That is the lighting you're seeing.
>>67987268
You know it, diverse people never do nuthin wrong
well we atleast know he is evil because white/old/male
>>67987468
He's Mr. PURE EVIL from TDKR.
>>67987485
There were evil asians on the starkiller. Check your villain privilege.
>>67987268
an evil white man in white robes.. hmm wonder what they were going for here
>>67986791
I'm sure they'll take traits from Thrawn and insert them into this guy.
He's basically the only decent thing about the EU. It would be stupid if they didn't.
>>67987538
I think the movie is carrying a message.
--w..wWaait
NUKE JAPAN
Remember when /tv/ got angry over black stormtrooper?
>>67987465
>stormtroopers are all high command
>vader and the emperor are just shitty cannon fodder ground troops
>>67986791
looking good MEINDELZOHN
>>67987335
Was it also built by an ancient Japanese demon?
>>67986791
Not fully, but yeah, I can see him having a digital art gallery and talk about how the crew of the Death Star is more important than the Death Star itself.
First thing I thought of watching TFA was all of those young imperials in the First Order and how Thrawn saw himself lamenting on the same situation after the Death Star blew up.
>>67986791
>>67986928
>literally posing in front of a circle
Poetry.
>>67986791
Will he be pure evil or necessary evil?
