ViewerAnon has a good track record of spoilers. I believe his posts. If he’s right, then Luke ded. He ded. And Snoke is ded. Kylo becomes the Supreme Leader.

I had a feeling that might happen. If what they said about him projecting via the force was accurate they still have an out to pop him back in again if they want to. Not holding my breath on it though. I always liked the Jedi aspect of Star Wars. With them seemingly doing away with the Jedi it seems like they are shooting more toward a "no lightsabers" model. Which is fine, but it seems like if you try to pull all the force stuff out of Star Wars all you get is generic sci-fi but with stormtroopers. I could be wrong, but, frankly, I am just wondering if we see the green lightsaber again, considering all of the "Obi-wan said 'this weapon is your life'. We agree and we aren't one to lose track of lightsabers." Seems like they did pretty well on obfuscating things.

also the idea of kylo being beyond help and redemption is a better direction than having a murderous school shooter type be "aw shucks, he's a good boy in the end." him offing snoke also works very well at saying, "no, he is not being influenced any more, this is who he is." plus, he's good at killing his dads.

Zoran posted:Super Everything we learn about her parents in TLJ seems to come from a vision that Kylo receives, so he could easily be lying or misinterpreting what he saw. There’s also some implication that Snoke is influencing his visions in some way, so I feel like there’s enough of an out if JJ wanted to go back to the seemingly obvious Skywalker connection. I don’t care about her parentage either way, I’m just saying. Luke’s death sounds way better in proper detail.

That Rey is coming from a random family, instead of "Star Wars nobility" is great, all the stuff, where everything leads back to the Skywalkers made the universe feel small. The issue I have with this - and TFA before - is that it basically shits all over the old heroes. They all are apparently ineffective fuckups, who managed to create nothing lasting in 30 years, except the hosed up Bad Boy Kylo Ren, the ultimate evil, who destroys them all. A nihilistic take on how your victories turn into dust through the daily grind of life and all that remains are the evils you created with your good intentions. Which is not really something I come to Star Wars for. At least with Luke dead and Leia gone in the next movie we can finally put the biggest gently caress-up family of the galaxy to rest and focus on how the new heroes ruin everything as setup for trilogy III.

And it's very possible the Luke dies/Leia lives spoilers are true, but that just means it's gonna be... awkward tying that into Episode 9. "Leia died on the way back to her home planet." e: That's super dumb if Luke's force-ghost projection dying kills him.

At least with the EU we might have got the Valley of the Jedi and Kyle Katarn. Would have been a cool reveal if that Actchoo held a wellspring of The Force that magnified a user's power at the cost of his exhaustion/stamina. Luke has been guardian to it the entire time instead of being someone so ashamed of himself he hides on a spit of land.

Probably a mixture of childhood feelings, and as an adult you always want things to work out one way or another. And here you have in a franchise about good space wizards vs bad space wizards and awesome space battles, you're getting some harsh reality put in there.

Dapper_Swindler posted:just make it work and make sense. not just "lol shock value". Yeah this pretty much. Given Rian Johnson's past efforts he doesn't come across as someone that would do it just for shock value. Plus higher ups at Disney liked what he was doing enough that they gave him three more movies/toys/costumes/books/video games for them to make bank off of. What makes me now morbidly curious is what Abrams will now do after all of this washes over. Since he started this whole thing.
