Not that big, slightly bigger than the death star 1
What you see in the trailer is actually pretty accurate.
We also don’t know how far under the water the wreckage extends.

This is amazing.
Just goes to show no one ever dies falling off anything… If the Emperor is still actually alive and not a force ghost that just evilly laughs at you from the side as you fail.
Ghost Yoda could call lightning and start a fire. Ghost Emperor can definitely fuck you the fuck up.
It would be a really great encounter too. How do you even fight spoopy Palpatine? You can’t cut him with a lightsaber or throw him down a hole.

Could also make for a good dramatic ending for a character. Maybe there is some level of self-sacrifice to stop him. Maybe Ben turns good and has to become a Force Ghost in order to keep Palpatine’s ghost at bay for eternity. Maybe all the Force Ghosts we’ve seen have to team up and do it. Maybe it involves crazy new Force powers.
All’s I know is, it could be freaking awesome.

It may not be a “Force Ghost Emperor”, it could be “AI Super Computer” designed to replicate the Emperor. There are imperial message droids that contain “If you are watching this I am dead and here are my final orders.”
It’s interesting, this is the first time ever where I’m not sure Star Wars is going. After seeing New Hope and Empire, Jedi was predictable in the sense of “There’s a final showdown and the good guys most likely will win.”
The old Star Wars EU novels had the movie cast in a protective “Bubble” so you know there wasn’t a a lot that was going to happen.
Then you had the Prequels, since they were Prequels you knew where they were going, aside from the odd bit of slight-of-hand. Everything up until Episode 7 was “filling in gaps between point A and B”.
Now you have episode IX, who knows what’s going to happen.

They were off by two episodes.

Kinda feel like if you browse the internet enough, someone will have named the title of everything years before it’s conception.

This is what I’ve been wanting ever since Episode VII came out:
" If the massive success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has taught us anything, it’s that having a single unifying voice like Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige overseeing the entire operation can be very helpful. Since its acquisition by Disney in 2012, the Star Wars franchise hasn’t had a person with such a direct hand in the series — until now. On Monday, Lucasfilm announced that it had named Michelle Rejwan the senior vice president of live action development and production at the studio."

I feel like this article is a bit disingenuous. Kathleen Kennedy essentially performed this role and had the title in addition to being the President of Lucasfilm. She was very out front in interviews and behind the scenes on the writing and staffing decisions for all of the films.

Kathleen Kennedy was in charge of Star Wars for ALL media, not just the movies. Considering all the various forms and iterations that Star Wars can take (games, comics, movies, TV shows, toys, underoos, etc.) I would think that her job is much more 10,000 feet up in the air compared to Kevin Feige, who’s only in charge of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
I mean I would agree, part of the problem was she was wearing both the executive position hat responsible for the business/strategy decisions and also wearing the creative director hat and that might have cost some focus.
