AxlisOld Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 One thing I like, they seem to be re-writing the myth, ignoring the midi-chlorian crap. Rey and Kylo are obviously strong with the Force, but there are other characters that seem to benefit from it. Finn turning from The First Order, helping Poe, how he is able to quickly use a giant gun without knowing how to do it. He held his own against a wounded Kylo before being nearly killed. Growing up, we believed The Force was something anyone can use if they put their faith in it. Ignoring the shit from the prequels, it may still be the case.Nope, just microscopic bugs in your blood. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknroll41 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) Something crossed my mind recently. I don't think Rey's real name is actually Rey. I just think that's something she calls herself since she lost her memory, supposedly. Han seems to know who she is, and yet he asks her what her name is she says "rey" and then he kinda smiles and recites it, almost as tho he were holding back a laugh and thinking "so that's what you're calling yourself now?" In all the pre-production stuff her name was Kira. I think that's what her real birth name is supposed to be...Just putting that out there.EDIT: it's late. I'm probably over analyzing the fuck out of this. Carry on. Edited January 23, 2016 by rocknroll41 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just my hunch, tho. Or what if Kylo is kinda playing both sides of the field? I remember Gen. Hux saying something to Kylo along the lines of "careful you don't let your personal vendettas get in the way of Snokes agenda" or something like that. Kylo wanted the map to Luke real bad not just for the sake of Snoke, but his own purpose. I at first thought Rey and Kylo were connected somehow but not in a direct brother/sister way. Maybe cousins?

DR DOOM Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 For some reason I thought Jedi were like, above sexuality...but it wouldn't surprise me if they have Luke chug a black cock or two to keep up with the times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to keep up with the times. It takes place "A long time ago" The fact his sexuality has even become a discussion on the internet if fucking discgraceful and shows how idiotic our society has become. It's a completely irrlevant topic and does nothing to advance the story or even impact the story. It's beyond fucking stupid that it's even come up and if the makers of the future Star Wars movies feel this moronic need to address it then they can just fuck off. I don't give a rats ass what Luke's sexuality is and neither does anybody else. Also these on going rumors of a Finn and Poe romance are asinine as well. Nobody gives god damn flying fuck. Not even gays care to see a gay romance in Star Wars. What does it accomplish? Nothing. It's simply an embarrassing attempt to pander to a certain demographic (who doesn't even want it) based on political correctness. Star Wars isn't the moral platform to address people's sexual differences. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got people with laser swords using magic to fight aliens, I don't see how having a man who fancies other men would be dramatically or tonally inconsistent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as its handled well I'm all for it. Besides, that article title is way way out of context. Mark Hamill was basically saying he welcomes speculation into Luke's sexuality, and does not mind if people want to imagine Luke as gay. He thinks its important for people to identify with Luke in their own way. That's it, its nothing official. Just Hamill chatting about how the character can be interpreted. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
