Fun Speculation: Tying Up Loose Ends...

Knights of Ren. Actually I am just a little bit curious where is set the flashback seens in TFA. Future or past?

 

I doubt he will put the mask back on.

 

I was wondering the same about the force vision from TLJ. Half has become clear. The other is the knights and Rey saying come back to the ship (still say it’s kylo before he left with the knights)

I would love to know more of the kingihts of REN and I know JJ loved them, however not as a detriment to story and pace

 

I'd like to see the Knights of Ren.

 

Despite Kylo Ren staying with the First Order, I think he is still conflicted and finds himself infatuated with Rey. The Knights of Ren I think will be used as a way to test his allegiance and his possible redemption back towards the light. I see them poisoning his mind, egging him on and promoting his erratic behavior. We could possibly see conflict within the knights themselves. Some back Kylo, others back Hux, and others are conflicted by the dark side and have an existential crisis with the Force.

Kylo and Rey have never truly disconnected and Rey attempts to reach "Ben" and still believes that he can be redeemed. We could see a scenario where Kylo must again choose his allegiance, the light or dark. Rey or the Knights of Ren?

For Luke I don't think they'll dwell too much on his past in Achto. Luke becomes a legend. His sacrifice in Crate is told through the witnesses who saw his battle with Kylo Ren and gives the message of hope throughout the Galaxy. He becomes a rallying cry that helps to rekindle the opposition against the First Order.

With a few years passing, Rey has been taught through the books with Force ghost Luke the ways of the Jedi. There are things though that Rey and Luke begin to mull over such as some of the old dogmatic rules, particularly the question of "love" and attachment. Are these feelings that the new Jedi should embrace or should they be discouraged? She finds herself conflicted as her connection with Ben remains and both find themselves attached, or dare I say in love.

Luke encourages Rey to pass on what she has learned and attempt to find an apprentice. There have been many rumors of the Force finding itself awaken to the most unlikely of people. Can anyone truly tap their potential and awaken the Force within? Finn the former janitor stormtrooper becomes the test dummy. Finn undergoing this training harkens back to his days as a brainwashed stormtrooper and finds himself conflicted and unable to truly tap into the Force.

 

He doesn't have to put the mask back on for it to be a vision of the future. Force visions don't give you an exact look on what will play out. Remember in Rey's vision she comes face to face with Kylo Ren in the forrest on Starkiller base. In the vision he has his mask on, later when that actually happens he does not.

 

Snoke's backstory, Rey's origins and Ben's downfall I would love to see explained.

The knights of Ren, and Luke's exile as well.
There's a lot to come in Ep 9 if they're going to explain all that (and the rest) in just one more movie.

 

Knights of Ren most definitely. I doubt we'd be getting any explanation about the rest. Unless Snoke returns (unlikely) I doubt'd they'd waste screen time to a dead character. Although it would be great.

Since this option isn't on the list I'd like to add: Context to the global political situation. This has been one of my top issues with the ST so far. We barely have any information about what happened and what's happening in the Republic...

 

Rey's confrontation with her past of course, the only question that does not have a definitive answer by all accounts: of course a fundamental element of Rey psychological struggles to begin with. All the other questions have either been answered sufficiently by the narrative or are 'perhaps' dysfunctional to it.

Though, I don't mind having them answer my own questions, so I would love to know more about the Knights of Ren and the fate of the students who rebelled with Kylo! Would be funny if they had names like the dwarves in the Hobbit.

 

I picked the Knights of Ren, only because I can already guess that we won't get any answers about the others.

Snoke was basically a plot device so bringing him back or expanding his lore is pointless.

We already know a bit about Luke on Ach-To. Besides, he's dead now so do we really need to waste time on it?

Starkiller base was always a complete load of s*** so hopefully JJ won't fall into the trap of recycling that idea again!

We may get more info on the first order through exposition seen during the knights of ren scenes. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

We already know everything we need to about Finn. It's where he's going that is important.

I would hope that they keep away from explaining force ghosts as TLJ was already borderline bending the lore to make Yoda's act a possibility.

I can see Ben's fall being detailed in extra source materials but not touched by IX. There isn't much time at this point for exposition.

Rey is up for debate. If JJ has balls then he'll keep her as a noone. I know it will massively annoy a lot of fans, however the message that she came from nothing resonates strongly with a lot of people.

Just my 2p!

 

the only thing i want more about is the First Order. we've had hints of its origins in the EU, but i'd love to see some of this brought into the films so that people can understand better about what a truly messed up organization it is.

 

I think they have to explain Snoke and the First Order, becuase so far it just seems to be they wanted to bring back the Emporer and the Empire so they did bring them back but just re named them.

They have to show they put a bit more thought into it then that!!!!.... please please let them have put more thought into it then that!!!!

 

they did, but not in the way you think. these people are very screwed up. XD

 

Really hope so, it will be so disappointing if it is like it seems, they just brought back the Empire and an Emperor becuase the original trilogy had that.

 

Rey.

Since 2 stinking drunk bum Junkers is not the deep and profound answer LFL mouthpieces told us in would be in 2016.

Pretty f****** far from it actually.

If I took time out to think of the most shallow, and unprofound answer I still don't think I would have came up with that rot.

WEAK.

In 9 we trust.

 

Knights of Ren. I think TLJ blew the opportunity to get into Snoke.
