So it looks like Hayden Christensen is in VIII

Yeah, where are you getting this?

Ah. Cool. So a British tabloid no one has ever heard of has the scoop!

If it was the daily mail reporting this I wouldn't even look at it. The express aren't that level of bad tabloid though. Plus it's been mentioned across a few different podcasts also.

It would be some feat if they've managed to keep this under wraps. But look at what we do know about 8 in terms of solid leaks or info. Next to nothing.

thats fine. I blame Christensen's terrible performance on dialogue and direction.

Some of The theories are cool. He's actually a split personality ghost. Talking one way in kylos ear and the opposite in Luke's.
doubt that'll happen.

Not sure if this has been discussed - if so I apologies for repeating it but has anyone read the theory that:

Spoiler: show

Benecio Del Toro is playing Ezra and that he's Rey's father? The theory speculates that he's a pretty dark dude and was at the Jedi Academy when Kylo attacked. Interesting if nothing else.

OMG that would be awesome

Think of the street cred that would give Rebels if they do something like that.

Yep. I like it a lot. A lot of moving parts have to come together but damn it sounds cool as hell.

Also would explain why Rey was hidden away.

Spoiler: show

Which comes to the best part of the theory to me. It was luke's decision to hide Rey from Ezra that sparked the attack on the Jedi Academy. Either way it's a cool story. It makes me a lot more excited for episode 8 than talking birds and sea monsters.

I really like that.

That sounds dumb too.

Could also still tie into the theory that Sabine is Rey's mother, right? I mean, in the last episode of Rebels we saw Sabine actually warming up to Ezra when he was sympathetic to her while she was training with the Dark Saber.

What if Jyn is Rey's mother or also Boyega

BB8 is Rey's father

Very interesting copy from Starwars.com about Kylo Ren I believe reveals a little bit about what we first see in Episode VIII from Kylo!

KYLO REN - A dark side warrior with a mysterious past, Kylo Ren was neither Jedi nor Sith, but a product of both sides’ teachings. Once an apprentice of Luke Skywalker’s, he killed his fellow students and drove Skywalker into exile, becoming a First Order warlord and servant of Supreme Leader Snoke. Kylo was determined to destroy the last remnants of the Jedi, fulfilling the legacy of Darth Vader.

Both the First Order and the Resistance were determined to locate Lor San Tekka, a galactic scout rumored to know how to find Skywalker. Kylo found San Tekka on Jakku and killed him, but not before San Tekka gave a bit of a star map to the Resistance pilot Poe Dameron. When Kylo captured Poe, he discovered the map was now in the memory banks of BB-8, an astromech on Jakku. By finding the lost droid, the First Order could locate Skywalker and extinguish the Resistance’s last hope.

Snoke warned Kylo that there had been an awakening in the Force, and his apprentice would face a test when he confronted his father. Kylo swore his loyalties were only to Snoke. But he was intrigued when he captured Rey, a Jakku scavenger whose Force abilities were raw but very powerful. A mysterious connection seemed to link the two.

Kylo faced his father inside the First Order’s Starkiller Base, and struck Han down with his lightsaber. But this shocking act of patricide didn’t make the former Ben Solo feel stronger – somehow he felt weaker. Rey then bested Kylo in a lightsaber duel, sparing his life. Kylo Ren had hoped to end the conflicts that caused him so such pain, but found he remained at war with himself, more lost than ever.

Definitely still keeps the Sabine theory alive. Which is always great.

TBH I just hope this film spends as long as possible on Luke and explaining the force and his new interpretation of it and why that's come about after his attempt with the academy failed and and and

Just have the whole film be Luke and Rey on ahch-to and I'd be happy.
Intercut with kylo knights of ten and smoke.
The rest of it is just Poe and Finn and the resistance. And who even cares about that?

Kylo is binary. Only goes 10
