In the second teaser trailer for The Force Awakens you most likely noticed a large wedge-shaped ship that we can assume is a new and improved Star Destroyer being used by the First Order. We don't know much beyond that, but the guys at Star Wars 7 News have got their hands on something very interesting that might shed some light on it.
Star Wars 7 News reports that they have received a photo of one of the pages in the upcoming "Star Wars: Ships Of The Galaxy" book. The page features a spread of schematics for the Star Destroyer, providing top, side and rear views of the ship. The book, which is listed on Amazon.com, is slated for release on September 4th(Force Friday) and the front cover teases a "giant foldout that reveals new ships." This could be from that foldout section:
Near the bottom you can see that the Destroyer is named "Finalizaer".

Love the look of the ship but really disappointed with its name. They could have come up with a ton of cooler names.
ReplyDelete^Agreed.
ReplyDeleteWith any luck that is the point of this leak and they will change it.
ReplyDeletePhasma, Snoke... The Finalizer? JJ really sucks at naming things. Very un-Star Wars.
ReplyDeleteBansheeGun, gtfooh, Phasma is a VERY Star Wars name!
ReplyDeleteall the original star destroyers were named by palpatine (in universe) so they allways made an enemy feel subjugated and demoralised.

ReplyDeleteI love the look! So cool! But I must say, "The Finalizer" sounds like a power rangers megazord mode...I don't even mean that sarcasticly...Its just so rediculously on-the-nose that it sounds like it is from a children's show. Hope it has multiple names so I never have to say "finalizer" again. I'll just call it First Order Star Destroyer.
ReplyDeleteIt's marketing for TOYS.
ReplyDeleteWow, the Finalizer is a terrible name. Why not just steal a good EU name?
ReplyDeleteThe Finalizer is a perfectly acceptable name for a Star Destroyer. It fits in nicely with names like The Immobilizer, The Acclamator, The Aggressor, etc. Some people are just looking for things to be upset about.
ReplyDeleteDollars to donuts they don't even mention it by name in the movie anyway...
