    You know this is going to start a rumor that Poe is a Sith Lord (emperor)

    Perhaps not a Sith Lord, but if he will become the new evil leader/ruler of the Galaxy... I'll love that.
    That will be a great twist.
    However, I believe the "mirror" thing has been used to reverse themes (just like actual mirrors reverse imagines left to right).
    Thus is more likely that Finn will become evil.
    Or none of them. What I think is just that their friendship will not end badly, as that of Anakin and Obi Wan.

    The new books have thematic tie-ins to The Last Jedi, Michael Siglain says.

    I've already noticed they've been doing that with the Ahsoka book (Ahsoka/Ashla parallels to Rey), Rebel Rising (and Star Wars Rebels) (Saw Gerrera parallels to Kylo Ren), for example. Or even perhaps the recurring child abduction elements in the canon.

    I suppose this is true. I like to believe that George just didn't incorporate that idea on accident, and we have just had to role with it ;)

    At one time I thought Luke was Rey's father, but now I am convinced Rey is the product of the force. Much like Anakin. Kylo Ren wants so badly to be Anakin, but it is Rey who is basically the reincarnation of Anakin. That is why she is so strong with the force.

    There's no reason to conceal the fact that Luke and Leia are twins. The audience knows that, the characters in the Star Wars universe already know that.

    Do they? Some might. Would Rey or Finn know that? Rey thought Luke was a myth.......

    Everybody knows Luke and Leia are siblings in the Bloodline novel, for example. It's talked about quite a bit. And then everybody in the galaxy finds out that they are Darth Vader's children and it's a scandal in the plot.

    I havent' read it.

    Please define everyone. Like people they work with? Strangers? Would a girl who lives on her own on Jakku who doesn't think Luke is a real person know he has a sister?

    I was responding to the idea that its common knowledge. For example - Han knows. Wedge would probably know. Maz.....might, she seems to have her finger on the pulse. Would that dude having a drink at the bar know? Are they that famous? If they are, why does Rey think Luke isn't real?

    Would Snoke know? Probably. Kylo obviously knows. Does Trooper 8409 know?

    The New Republic knows... the Senate and the core planets. Rey has grown up in the Western Reaches which is far from the center of the galaxy. Although, it is strange that she has a core world accent.

    Let's check out notable Luke references in Bloodline:

    From the movie:

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    If Rey is a Skywalker by blood (daughter of Leia and Han or daughter of Luke): Maz is saying Rey's family (Han who is upstairs, Leia, Luke) are never coming back but there's someone who still could (Luke?) ? That doesn't have any sense.

    Well yes, I could take two completely different things and post them next to each other and use it as reasoning too. Those scenes are largely unrelated and have no actual bearing on each other.

    1. This operates under the assumption that her parents are the ones who put her on Jakku. If Han left her there but she's Luke's kid...Han is never going back to Jakku

    2. This operates only under the assumption it was AT LEAST her father who put her on Jakku. If it was just her mother, then Luke could still be the father. and not going to Jakku.

    3. This operates under the assumption that Rey actually knows who left her there not under an assumption of who did. If Rey assumes her family left her there but it wasn't then her family wouldn't be going back....
