Okay, so Mike Stoklasa is unfamiliar with how storyboards work. I can provisionally accept that, not knowing the guy. I hope he learns how they do work someday, though.

AndyElusive posted:Care to elaborate? I don't see the similarities between how she and Sheev saber fight at all. There's a stance that is very unique and somewhat 'unnatural'  but there is also the overall style - Rey hops around and retreats, drawing her opponent into an arena on her terms MonsieurChoc posted:You've heard it here first: Rey is Prince Ken's daughter. Glove of Darth Vader: still canon. This does inform my theory - I mean, why not? Maybe George made some scribble in a notebook in the 80's about the Emperor's descendants and it has been kicked around the EU already? Jacen Solo basically became Kylo Ren, after all.

Reybacca. She's the reason why Leia and Chewy didn't say anything to each other. She's their shame.

Target I think has a steelbook copy, but their special features is a digital code. Does Best Buy (or any other location?) have a physical special features disc with their version?

I mean yeah if you think about it Star wars the movies has always been about the Skywalker family so of course he abandoned her to protect her from Vader Jr. And maybe Ming the merciless was hanging around to keep an eye on her.

I don't think Rey is Luke's daughter, but for the sake of argument: After what happened to the previous class of Jedi trainees, Luke may very well believe that it's safer for Rey to be as far away from him as possible. Maybe she was supposed to be in a better situation on Jakku but ended up with Plutt instead?

I have to think there are better places to send her to than a dessert wasteland where she has to fend for herself, as a child. jivjov posted:I don't think Rey is Luke's daughter, but for the sake of argument: I mean, maybe, but the shot of young Rey we see in the vision seems to at least imply she was immediately left with Plutt.

If she's Luke's daughter, the most likely scenario is that he put her into hiding on Jakku. I'm not ruling out we learn something new in the future. I just don't know that thing now.

It would be an interesting twist if neither Luke nor Rey knew that he was her father, but Kylo found out somehow. Like if Luke had had a relationship with a woman he thought dead, but she actually carried a baby to term.

The one hole is all of this and almost an inexcusable hole is that Kylo didn't recognize her.

computer parts posted:It would be an interesting twist if neither Luke nor Rey knew that he was her father, but Kylo found out somehow. A necrophiliac Luke would definitely be a daring direction (and it's not really necrophilia if she wasn't actually dead), but I still don't see Disney going that way.

The thing is, though, Kathleen Kennedy said that the numbered Episode movies are about the Skywalker family. I guess technically that's true if you just have Kylo Ren, but it certainly implies, to me, that she wasn't just talking about the villain.

Maz may have never met her. But Han absolutely knew who she was and you'd have to be paying zero attention to not realize this. She tells him her name and he's all "Rey..." and looks mysterious. Plus when Maz asks who she is it cuts away, implying that Han knows and tells her off-screen. Chewie and R2 probably know too, but how would we know that?

It's never stated in the movies, but effectively Palpatine has been Luke's Grandfather since at least ROTJ. Arguably ESB has Vader basically saying "let's kill my dad and take the family business elsewhere".
