    So it was changed to a desert during the production? I know a lot of members here were under the impression that it could maybe be a flashback. Also if it takes place before, how would she be so in-awe about he forests of Takodana ?

    He kept changing the forceback vision which is why the novel and the movie do not align. It could be somewhat at the behest of Rian Johnson. Even the final script to the WGA is missing some things like the voiceover from Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

    We can see what various versions of the vision would have looked at the time of filming according to MSW and MF.com:

    https://thecantina.starwarsnewsnet.com/index.php?threads/mf-com-leaks-full-shooting-schedule.7140/
    http://makingstarwars.net/2015/02/f...-be-up-to-before-star-wars-the-force-awakens/

    That changed quite a bit too even before the novelization got written and added some things. And then later the movie itself was a different iteration.

    But she's hearing a conversation from way back when. It's the same principle of the thing as her hearing all the random quotes from the OT characters.

    What I'm saying is that the forest she hears it in is Starkiller Base, but that's not where the conversation was actually held.

    Are you saying that part of her "force back" vision was of the future ?

    The movie's force vision is as follows

    1) Rey in the Cloud City hallway
    LUKE SKYWALKER: NOOOOOOOO!
    2) Luke places his robotic hand on R2-D2
    YODA: ...surrounds us... binds us...
    3) Person is stabbed through the chest by the red crossguard saber in the rain
    4) Kylo Ren stands with the red crossguard saber in the rain with six others (Knights of Ren)
    5) Little Rey in the desert (Jakku)
    REY: NOOOOO! COME BACK!
    UNKAR PLUTT: Quiet, girl.
    REY: NOOOOO!
    Starship flies away toward the eclipsed sun
    6) Snowy forest (Starkiller Base)
    OBI-WAN KENOBI: Rey.
    Kylo Ren ignites the red crossgard saber
    7) Rey returns to the basement of Maz's castle
    OBI-WAN KENOBI: These are your first steps...

    Well that's what I'm asking what you think (sorry if I didn't make it clear) that the #6 you posted is really the potential future she is seeing which ends up coming true .

    Rey can see a version of the future.

    Like Anakin and Luke. Always in motion, Yoda told him.

    And bringing this back to her origins, this (in my opinion) proves she has Skyealker lineage if not being A "Skywalker" herself .

    "Midichlorians"

    Simplicity and Jungian archetypes are better than convoluted, overly technical ones.

    I doubt JJ meant literally in the sense that VIII would have that evolutionary moment of the saga .

    But Han talks about "a boy that betrayed Luke". But then I don't know how old Kylo is in TFA, 28 something like that?

    Pablo Hidalgo started making excuses for why Ben isn't a boy so it started to smell like a retcon is in the works.



    The script also says that.

    Pablo simply means that Han Solo "simply"doesn't recognize his own son anymore...remember that "Making A Murderer" Netflix doc, that's what this reminds me of .

    No. I was saying that she was hearing something in the distant past during a vision of the future. This would be consistent with the rest of the flashback.

    Which were mentioned absolutely nowhere in TFA. My point still stands.

    If you want to post that GIF, put a spoiler tag on it for those that didn't want to see it. :)

    That shouldn't actually even have to be a question.... but It hides the gore that may not be considered tactful (like an exploding head) by those that are squeamish.

    Nevermind, I just deleted the post! :)

    UNLESS Ep VIII starts EXACTLY where TFA ended....with Luke and Rey facing each other on the mountain. I'd prefer the next film to have some 'space' between it and TFA, but it could happen I s'pose.
