No one here ever said such a thing, nor has such a thing happened, soooooo.........

Back before George Lucas became a hack storyteller and felt like he had to spell out every little detail -- such as going back into ROTJ and having Darth Vader yell, "NOOOOOOO!" before picking up the Emperor and throwing him down whatever that was, because he assumed for almost 30 years, people...

Despite everything we've heard George Lucas say about his grand scheme from the very beginning, it has been proven over and over again that George did not have everything laid out. He didn't even know Ben was going to die until well into filming. He didn't know Darth Vader was Luke's father and...

Thank you for saying that. Three times now I've watched that scene and wondered exactly why she was so fascinated with that old lady. I hadn't put it together the way you articulated it, but yes, that is definitely exactly what she was thinking, as she faces the truth she tries to deny (as Maz...

Yes, those were both subtle, excellent moments that required no words, yet spoke volumes. George would have given us words, because he is convinced people will not understand if you don't spell it out for them.

I thought the Ewoks were nothing more than a merchandising toy commercial. In fact, any time I watch ROTJ now, I pretty much skip over the Ewoks scenes. That is the movie where George Lucas started losing it.

Oh, gotcha.

Every single scene I referenced is a FACT, which just happens to support a very strong theory that Luke is Rey's father. You have NOTHING, except "It's too obvious," without a single fact to support it. THAT is an opinion. You really should have stopped at agree to disagree. You're not very good...

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your comment, but in Return of the Jedi, I'm pretty sure the Ewoks were new. We had never seen Jabba the Hutt before (Lucas added him to Episode IV well after ROTJ came out). We had never seen anyone like Bib Fortuna or the Gammorean guards or the Rancor or Sy Snootles...

Yes, by all means, you should disagree with FACTS. Forge your own road, which leads..............

No, it's evidence. By definition, evidence is "ground for belief; something that makes plain or clear; an indication or sign; a thing or set of things helping in forming a conclusion or judgment; the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or...

True.

Obi-Wan lived on Tatooine from the time Luke and Leia were born until he took Luke to Mos Eisley and they hopped a ride to Alderaan -- a trip on which Obi-Wan died. Any daughter Obi-Wan would have had would have been even younger than Luke, who was 19 when they left to return the droids to the...

I'll go with the evidence, while you go with "it's too obvious."

I'm assuming Luke is the father, because it seems quite clear, and after all the entire story of Star Wars is the story of the Skywalker family. We know she was abandoned on Jakku, which just happens to be the same place where the Millennium Falcon is and where Max Von Sydow's character lives...

She does not say, "Mom." She says, "Nooooooo! Come back!"

Then it wouldn't be relevant to the actual MOVIE.

I really don't think the movie could possibly be more clear that she is a Skywalker; not to mention the second trailer with Mark Hamill re-recording his speech in ROTJ: "The force is strong in my family. My father has it. I have it. My sister has it. YOU HAVE THAT POWER TOO."

Correct. What she was seeing was her being left on Jakku and Luke flying away to become a hermit.

He's 12, not 5. You don't know my nephew. When my nephew cries at Han Solo dying and is practically inconsolable, even well after the movie is over, it's because he was very deeply moved that he was killed and was emotional about it. Killing Han Solo, of whom he has been a huge fan since...

Those of us who are old enough have had Han Solo in our lives for 38 years. No further backstory was needed. No investment needed to be made in Kylo Ren, because Han's death for the audience wasn't about Kylo Ren. It was about Han Solo. And it was VERY emotional for me. My 12-year-old nephew...

I teared up. My 12-year-old nephew yelled out, "Why would they do that!?!" and started crying. He continued to cry throughout the rest of the movie and for at least 15-20 minutes after the movie was over. So for some, it was definitely not emotionless.

It's difficult to even take this post seriously. "I could do without the return of Han Solo, Leia and Chewbacca"??? Han Solo poorly written??? John Williams' score forgettable??? Not everyone is going to like the movie equally, and certainly some might not like it at all, but this is nothing but...
