God, do I wish I could find that fan film, though.

One day

Pretty sure it doesn't exist online anymore sadly.

The throne room scenes in ROTJ are my favorite scenes in the entire original trilogy. They're so fucking good.

If you won't be turned to the Dark Side, then perhaps she will...

NOOOOO!

That was the best scene in the entire series. Easily the best lightsaber fight.

Episode VIII

The lanky, deformed being sat in his elevated chair; arms resting against the cold steel. In this dark sanctum only shards of red crystals emitted the only rays of light; maybe one day they would be used for the weapons of future apprentices, that is if his current one did fail. His current pupil had been a perfect specimen, molded from both the Dark and the Light. As the Light called to him, so did the Dark beckon to be even more ruthless and overpower the good.

General Hux strode in, a wounded Ren trailing behind, head bowed down in shame, face scarred. The First Order; thought the figure. Just another vessel to accomplish his goals, just another means to an end like countless organizations of the past. "Leave us," the figure grumbled. Hux with a nervous expression on his face, did not hesitate. The destruction of the weapon was most unfortunate, but it served its purpose.

"Come closer..." Supreme Leader said, invitingly. "She must have been strong...to be able to withstand my greatest warrior. You failed to bring her to me..."

"Supreme Leader Sno-"

A withered hand is raised in the air, and Ren bows his head even lower.

"You've completed one test, but failed another. All is not lost, however. It is time to complete your training. But first, no failure can go unpunished."

Ren knows what he must do. He holds his hand over the metallic cylinder in the middle of the sanctum. A blade hums to life. Not his own with a cross-guard- an even more ancient sinister design. The Supreme Leader's blade slowly cuts through and cauterizes his flesh; the limb falls weakly to the floor. Ren knew this day would come; one step closer to fulfilling his destiny.

"You succeeded where a great man could not, be proud of this day Ren. But you know what you must do next. General Organa...your mother. Skywalker...the Skywalker bloodline must be purged, and when it is nothing but legend, you will start a new lineage in its place; not a trace of the Light. Balance will be brought, once and for all."

As Luke touched his long lost weapon, it all came back to him. Years spent building up a new Jedi Order, promoting peace in the galaxy, and the good in others...all tore down. Students with so much potential murdered in cold-blood.

kinda bored tonight lol

Remind me why the New Republic isn't fighting the First Order?

They don't think they're a big threat, I know, kind of silly. They're a bunch of Bureaucrats that don't get anything done. It's mentioned in the Visual Dictionary and novelization that Leia has been urging them to take action for quite some time, but they don't listen. I guess it's a little like a WII scenario with no one taking a stand against the Nazis earlier because they are tired of war (or in this case the last galactic war).

Luke had better fucking not be Rey's dad.

Luke had better fucking not be Rey's dad.

I know, it seems so obvious and also wouldn't be very surprising or interesting. Maybe she's just a nobody who happens to be force sensitive and that's the whole point? But why drop her off on a planet and never come back? Obviously related to someone important. Also in early interviews Abrams said the new trilogy was still very much about the Skywalker family. Technically that's Ren too.

People put too much value in the unexpected. If your movie has to rely on twists and subverting audience expectations to be entertaining, or to hold the audience's attention, then the movie never had any merit to begin with.

Kathleen Kennedy also said that the Saga films focus on the Skywalkers http://www.starwarsunderworld.com/2015/10/kathleen-kennedy-confirms-saga-films.html

“The Saga films focus on the Skywalker family saga,” she explains. “The stories follow a linear narrative that connects to the previous six films. The Force Awakens follows Return of the Jedi and continues that generational story. The Anthology films offer opportunities to explore fresh characters, new storylines and a variety of genres inside the Star Wars universe.”

Honestly, I don't care if she's Luke's kid or not, I just want an explanation as to how she's so powerful

I think being Luke's kid is enough of an explanation.

I agree, hence the "The force is strong in my family" being reused in one of the trailers.

And I wouldn't say "powerful" just yet--just precocious.

Yeah. Wrong wording on my part

Abrams is only directing one of them

Yeah, lots of people seem to be forgetting this. It reminds me of that old common misconception that George Lucas directed every Star Wars film--even the OT, which is, of course, not true. Irvin Kershner directed Empire, and someone else directed RotJ.

Did George have anything to do with Empire or RotJ?...

According to IMDb, he was an Executive Producer, which is also something JJ Abrams will be doing

Rey is the descendant of Bastila Shan

I actually wouldn't mind her having a double bladed lightsaber like Bastila and Satele tbh fam

I kind of expect her to use some kind of double bladed light saber because of her staff
