I did consider that Rey might just be a natural Jedi, like Anakin.

To be fair Anakin was not really a random he was created through the force by Darth Sidious and Plaguis.

Debated by fans, but a good point to bring up. No natural father. Just a mother. Jesus anyone?

Yes Anakin is supposedly "immaculate" conception, I don't think that is the case with Rey though as she says parents instead of just Mother.

The whole point of latest film though is the Force awakening in people, Rey obviously has it, I think Finn will have it and I think Poe will have it too. Snokes is obviously force sensitive too for his line "there has been an awakening, do you feel it?" and his training of Kylo in the ways of the Dark side to make sense. I think it's another part of the reason why he destroyed the republic fleet worlds, to mass kill anyone who is potentially "awakening" who may pose a threat to his first order.

It's probably a film that requires a few watches to notice subtle things which add to the "awakening" plot

Did someone leave the doors to theatre locked and thought it would be funny to put it on repeat?

Go easy on me guys. I grew up with it. When i was a little kid i went through multiple copies of empire strikes back. My mom even had to replace the vcr at one point because everyday it was played at least 2 times in a row.

Do you mean episode 6 (the third film) Return of the Jedi, or Episode 3 (the 6th film) Revenge of the Sith ?

Although I'm bummed about Solo, this was a great movie. I loved how Chewie went into insant kick-ass mode when Solo was murdered by his own son. GO CHEWIE!

I expected at least a one liner from Luke, but at least we know he'll be the Obi Wan of the next episode...

Oh, and i just have to mention one awesome detail that I reallly liked. The holographic game on the Falcon, they brought it back without changing a damn thing! That was quite nostalgic.

Ep 3 revenge of the sith

The next director has some big shoes and expectations to fill

One aspect of the story-line I think was intentional was the vast similarities to ep4-ANH is to demonstrate that history has a tendency to repeat itself. And, if the forces of good are not constantly keeping the forces of evil at bay, pushing it back it will engulf us all. I read it as a message the freedom is not free, and must be repeatedly be renewed by the blood of the fight.

As for the Rey character, she is either a life created by the Metaclorians (like Anakin) but this time instead of being created by the Sith, it was created by the Jedi, Luke in particular. It is a counter-force to Anakin/Vader in an attempt to stave off the dark-side for good. After seeing all he did, and feeling himself slipping toward the dark-side (end of ep6-ROJ) and his failure with his nephew Ben, the only solution is to defeat the dark-side by creating a new Anakin life-form that does not turn to the dark-side.

Or, she is simply Luke's daughter, hidden away to prevent being killed by Ben/Kylo-Ren.


But then, I could be wrong.
