I dont think it should be dissected too much. I think it was just a wonderful "come back next time to see what happens" scene. Luke, being one of the greatest jedi's ever, probably knows exactly what is going on and why she is there. She is obviously the daughter of Solo and im sure he feels it.
Umm, she is also the daughter of leia, a skywalker, so there's that

The stupid Golum looking character is simply a Jedi mind trick by Luke. He's the real new emperor.

At the start of the next movie, it'll show him taking the lightsaber from Rey before cutting her head off.

Poe will become our next main lead, and Finn and Chewie will settle down together.

There were tears in Luke's and her eyes at the end. They both knew.

I don't buy that. She's Lukes daughter and she's hidden to protect her
There's no recognition between Rey and Ren.

There's minimal recognition (if any) between Leia and Rey.

Rey and Luke are connected. Remember that R2D2 woke with Rey's presence (or The Force at the least)

Rey doesn't have to be related to anyone we know. She could have just been the last remaining student of Luke's and he wiped her memory, or something.

I thought the reason Rey was able to Read Rens mind was because they are related. There is a stronger connection there.

That's a silly plot line. So entirely plausible.

I love R2. He's our hero. This little upstart BB8 getting all the attention. Fuck that. R2 saves our guys in every scene and situation they find themselves in, in every film.

R2 is the man. AND has been dealing with 3PO for what, 40 years l??
