    maybe. Hux and Ren are so off-balance, a crazy Sithy guy would make more sense. for all his ominous "powers" he seems to surround himself with lackeys who have serious psychological failings.

    which again, is why i still think (and really really hope) Snoke is just a macguffin.

    Agreed I saw that happen with Vader & Admiral Diett, see how the empire can't even get it right, ever.

    Number 6 would connect... Rey says I need to help Finn...Luke says not until you've completed your training... She calls him on his doing the same thing... He says he won't go but shows up in the end...

    he'll arrive to save her from getting her hat handed to her by Kylo Ren. she won't be able to win against him at peak performance.

    Taking the title of your thread very seriously (only one sentence..)

    Extremely old grumpy dark sider with ambition to rule them all but bit of a weak fitness and someone stupid enough to do the unhealthy fighting and bad cop playing for him looks forward to get rid of the one last fellow of the Jedi team that is overstretching his nerves by constantly trying to stop his long .. far too long .. journey to absolute power with the help of naiv but strong pupils without chance to be or get nearly as cool and powerful as he thinks he is himself.

    This. A homage to The Empire Strikes Back, but this time on Ilum. The sequel trilogy seems to be covering Old Republic era material, and the planet Ilum contains a most ancient Jedi temple. Some exciting stuff could go down.

    Wouldn't Ilum look too familiar compared to SKB for general audiences ?

    Christophsis, or Mygeeto? Rumour says that episode 8 takes inspiration from Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and Mygeeto contained the Death Star kyber-crystal in Legends.

    If I had to pick between those two, then I'd take Christophsis over Mygeeto because Christophsis is easier to explain from TCW to have in VIII .

    Kylo kidnaps Rey as they play scrabble with Snoke with Rey winning cause she can do anything. Kylo gets really angry and kills Snoke with the letter V for...you guessed it Vader as Luke sneaks in and turns Kylo back to the light side with a flashlight. The End

    My *crazy* idea would be that Kylo kills Hux by throwing Vader's melted helmet at Hux and then apologizes to the helmet .

    That would be hilarious. I could imagine Hux drinking some tea and muttering something about having to build another Death Star and the BAM! Falls over dead and his eyes staring at the helmet as Kylo bends down and says"Sorry grandfather"

    Do you think Rey will end up with a double-bladed lightsaber? She seemed pretty good with that big stick she carried about.

    I really like this theory:
    it would be really diffrent and really set this trilogy apart from the Orginal trilogy, and give Finn a purpose and goal in the story.

    cant say Im a fan of these theory's though:
    If Rey just turned out to be a friends of Lukes daughter, it would be very Meh, and know one would give a crap, and would feel like a massive let down after all the build up.
    and i don't think they will go the reincarnation route, after the slating the whole immaculate conception got in the prequel trilogy i can't see them bringing reincarnation into it.

    My own theories:
    Snoke will turn out to predate the sith and the Jedi, and was the reason the jedi order was set up to fight him, and that is why luke went looking for the first Jedi temple to try and find the secret of how he was defeated the first time.

    Finn is Not Force sensitive.

    The new republic will side with the First Order at the end of the next film.
