I still don't think Rey has to be anyone's child/grandchild for this to be interesting or to explain some of the intense staring contests we see in TFA. But IF she's going to be any known SW character's progeny, the Obi Wan Kenobi theory is by far my favorite.

My wife is still talking about it. All through lunch today she was asking questions and wanting to know if I'd read any new theories on the board, etc. She's not a Star Wars fan at all and she loves the shit out of this movie.

Hearing this all over. It's caught the imagination of a whole load of people not at all interested in Star Wars up to now. I'm getting texts and emails from pals since it came out with the same questions and queries about backstory etc :)

And I think that kind of thing is just literally awesome.

Regardless of whether or not one enjoys the movie or thinks its a good movie, I hope people at least appreciate how excited by it people are. Especially new comers and people who were disinterested or ambivalent about the OT and prequels. That really speaks volumes.

He's a rare gem. And I pray he never changes. Well, except I think he's mad at me. Or at least thinks I'm some sort of idiot or simpleton. I hope that changes. But otherwise, I pray he never changes.
