I really wish youd read those other 3 books.

It took me forever to realize what OT meant before reading the article. When OT is used in the star wars forum i assume its Original Trilogy. lets correct this, please.

Man if I could afford em I'd be all over it!

I do check my Dublin City library's website occasionally to see can i borrow em but they're either on constant log on loan or have been stolen and just not removed from the database.

FYI I wasn't planning to keep them either. At all.

Ps Wrinzlers making of force awakens book has been held up forever. We're probably never gonna see it. Something happened. I guess he's gonna use this blog as an outlet to the why's of that. Might get juicy/ugly.

Okay ive had some wine and im throwing this out here....

Can we just start assuming that Rey is a Skywalker and bitch and moan about it then move on from it so we can enjoy the story unfold as the writers want? lets enjoy the ride for the next two movies.

Okay cool.

Watching TFA because i am not working tomorrow and its my last night of being a bachelor before me lady returns.

"and now it belongs to you....'" Maz Kanata handing the saber to Rey after discussing a portion of the lineage of the weapon....

During the same scene the screams "nooooo!" from luke ..... "noooo!!!" from anakin"..... and "noooo" from toddler dropped of on Jakuu....

dot dot dot......All the same No's of desperation.

Onward: In the cockpit on the way to the castle of Maz Kanta when Rey tells Han her name.....He gives a look that reads "Awe, so thats what they named my child, i like it".

On top of the familiarity that Kylo has towards her and her ability to call to the force at such a young and untrained stage of her life.

She's a skywalker.

She's a skywalker of some sort. So lets just take the next few pages to bitch about the new saga and how it revolves around a skywalker so we can cleanse ourselves of such an ordeal and begin to enjoy the movies not as how we want them to be...but how they are presented to us.

Kthanks.

The bit about Han confuses me.

[dimejinky99]

I've kinda let go of her being related to anyone. It'll be cool if she is but I don't think she will be. I envision a twist something like luke killed her parents. Or maybe kylo did.

The bit about Han confuses me.

Leia is a Skywalker, too. Thus, Han's children are of the Skywalker lineage.

Here's one: what if a Snoke is someone like Shmi's grandfather? That could be another reason for his disappointment in Vader.

I am thinking that there is more to Ben Solo than we think, and it's even possible he put her on that planet.

Nah that really really goes hard on making the galaxy smaller. They won't do that

Unless it is officially revealed that Palpatine conceived Anakin through the force. But it's doubtful.

There will be some connection Snoke to Palpatine though.

That's definitely on the table.

*possibly hiding her knowing how powerful she is so he can train her when she's old enough.

So a new trailer has been classified by the BBFC right?

What if it's gonna have the 'Chewie were home' moment but they'll show Luke and Leia meeting??

Grown men gonna cry me included.

Apparently that was just for the shorter version of the one shown at Celebration.

Nah it won't be. It's for D23 and or comic con. The two biggest cons this year. They won't just do an edited version. It'll have new footage. Probably focused on the dark side.

Is he that much older than her?

Ten or so years. It's not specified.
