Anakin was supposedly immaculately conceived, right? Just straight up raw midichlorian shoved in a womb. And yet he wasn't 'a physical manifestation of The Force itself...' So why would Rey be when she's essentially just a watered down version? I mean I guess we don't know exactly what her origin is; perhaps her family tree has an even more impressive boost in there somewhere, but I'm not sure how much more impressive you can get that essentially being godlike as Anakin was.

That said, Rey's sudden Force powers in TFA could be easily explained if somehow, her Force powers were beyond any and all that came before, which would definitely chill the "Rey's a Mary Sue" crowd. All I do know, for certain, is that supposedly, Lucasfilm expects a portion of thefan base to be pissed off when the answers to some mysteries are revealed in Episode VIII. Even some at Lucasfilm were extremely happy that Abrams was hired for Episode IX because he's expected to get things "back on track", for whatever that's worth. Rian's film is said to be the darkest of all the films, which for me, will probably make it among my favorites. |

It's like watching a preview for next week's episode of Mad Men, which were completely and totally worthless because of the lack of context behind the words. |

Damn! I've been sick with a cold the past few days and forgot to grab my seats at Arclight Hollywood on Thursday, December 14th, so I got stuck with seats in the 2nd row of the 9pm showing.
I just purchased much better seats at AMC Burbank for Saturday, which is the same thing I did for Rogue One (Thursday at Arclight, Saturday in Burbank). I'll probably catch it in IMAX at Universal Studios the following week. It would be too much to take in on the first viewing. |

As to her family, I’m not sure but it’s become clear that Ben Solo/Kylo Ren was well aware of her before she knew about it. |

And to take the Palpatine thought just a little further - Hmmm. EDIT - strike that, Jakku wasn't Palpatine's homeworld, only a planet he held in high regard. I believe he considered it strong with the dark side, that's why he had hidden bases there. Last edited by Bowser; 10-10-2017 at 08:57 PM.. |
