Maybe she lunges with it after an impressive warm-up spin, and a baddie with a red lightsaber simply lops it off at about the midsection.

I could see that happening. No need to make a big show with that stick. She's only had it in every promo shot

Or Han gets tired of waiting for her to finish, pulls out his blaster and pops her in the leg. Hey, whether she turns out to be his daughter or not, sometimes Harrison Ford has to lay down the law and get stuff done.

Some thoughts:
1: Nice juxtaposition of Kylo's lightsaber and Rey's staff.
2: Oh, Leia IS in this movie after all. (And with a fancy Naboo-style hairdo.) I was starting to wonder.
3: No Luke, but that's understandable given what we know (so far) of the plot.
4: Aren't you a little lightsaber-proficient for a stormtrooper?
5: The hell is that beside Artoo??
6: DEATH STAR III!!!!
So Harrison now has top billing over Mark... and no Kenny Baker?
38 years later, Leia still has a ridiculous do.
While I'm not surprised with our original trio getting top billing, I'm a little surprised that Driver is credited before the new heroes. Makes me think his role is a bit more complicated than we've been led to believe.

Love the poster.
I am a disappointed but not surprised by the lack of Mark Hamill.
It's got a great combination of new and old elements.
Sure, we can put together quite a bit from what's out there, but there still hasn't been much revealed officially.

Well, not only is Ford the bigger name, but he also has a larger role in the movie, so...makes sense that he's credited over Hamill.
Pretty cool poster, even if I've never been that crazy about SW posters that try to cram in nearly every character and ship and alien that appears.
But it does give us a lot of new things to analyze, which is nice. The thing that jumps out the most to me is probably Fisher, who looks pretty darn good there and a lot more like Leia than I would have ever thought possible.
And while I'm not bothered at all by the use of another super weapon, I have to admit I am a bit surprised to see one that is so obviously reminiscent of the Death Star. I figured they would try to downplay the similarities a lot more than that.

Maybe Maz Kanata (Lupita Nyong’o)?!?
Gwendolyn Christie isn't credited, but Max von Sydow is.
Glad to see they didn't leave out Michael Arndt.
EDIT:
Goddammit.. i still get the chills whenever Luke's Theme plays (Binary Sunset, the scene when Luke is on Tatooine and we see the twin Suns).
Ticket sales start tomorrow and i'll be refreshing the movie theater's site quite often starting with 9am

EDIT:
Wow, very cool. Although it suggests this will be another montage of beautifully shot, dialogue-free moments that doesn't really tell us much about the actual plot.
Which I'm perfectly okay with, but I know will probably annoy others out there.
Another fucking Death Star...well a knock-off star...whatever it's the freaking Death Star.
