Deranged Rhino Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 JJ talks (a little) about Luke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I'm not saying that's what should happen, but whoever is saying "I'll finish what you started" sounds like someone close to DV (well, as close as someone can get to a guy like him). And only Luke would have known where he cremated DV 30 years earlier. I have no doubt that Luke kept the Vader mask. I think it's far more likely that Luke told his son/nephew about his father--the most powerful Jedi to ever live--before he sensed the dark side in the boy. The boy, intrigued by power, absconds with the mask and pursues the dark side of the force in an effort to achieve limitless power, following in his grandfather's footsteps.

Heels20X6 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Didn't Luke have a son that turned Sith in the books? Could be Luke told his kid who dug up Grandpa's helmet That's my theory... Kylo Ren is Luke's son who succumbed to the Dark Side when he found out the connection between Anakin and Darth Vader. Luke, feeling shame, ran off to Dagobah to ready himself to train the crop of Jedi that will defeat him (including Leia's child(ren) and Finn) as Luke cannot bear to take down his own son. That's Luke with the metal hand touching R2D2 and the background totally looks Dagobah-ish Edited October 30, 2015 by Heels20X6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still going with Leia/Han's son...the whole twins thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

/dev/null Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I heard this movie comes out soon. What movie are we talking about? I thought Star Wars was some reality show where celebrities settle grudges. Anniston vs Jolie. J-Lo vs Jennifer Garner. Caitlyn Jenner vs the Kardashians.

Fixxxer Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) Is that style of sith lightsaber on any past Star Wars comic book? If the answer is no, I hate it. Edited November 13, 2015 by Fixxxer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebandit27 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Is that style of sith lightsaber on any past Star Wars comic book? If the answer is no, I hate it. No. I thought that I read somewhere that Kylo constructed it that way because it was unconventional It should also be stated that Abrams himself said that Kylo is "NOT a sith" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 After seeing the trailer in a theater this weekend, I get the feeling that Kylo is a Solo. That brief shot of Leia crying gives me that impression, a kind of "he did what" type response from her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everything new has to be cool and innovative, the lightsaber is already a cool feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Then I don't like it. Not everything new has to be cool and innovative, the lightsaber is already a cool feature. I'm neutral on it really. I do think that I read that the idea behind the design was to do something unconventional because the Order of Ren sees themselves as new and unconventional, even so far as the dark side of the force is concerned.
