    I'm not buying into this rumor.

    Rey taking the name/epithet "Skywalker" makes as much sense as Roman emperors naming themselves "Ceasar", to name but one example. Last names turning into honorifics and/or epithats or whatever are quite common.

    This is why I'm suspicious. JJ is not gonna let the ending of a 42 year Saga to just leak, let alone the whole movie. As I recall, there where no leaks before the Celebration trailer that revealed Palpy and everyone got the title wrong. No one knows the complete story, besides JJ and KK.

    Oh, I'm quite certain, @Andrew Waples, that JJ didn't LET it leak. That would be rather weird :) If it is true, then someone obviously leaked it (and other things) without JJ's approval... obviously.

    But I'm sure production and or people that would have any secret knowledge of Lucasfilm have a NDA that they can't say anything?

    I still think
    she has to be a nobody or a skywalker (one way or another). Both those outcomes make perfect sense. Or the Skywalkers die while their legacy lives on the shoulders of “ordinary” people, or they live. Every other choice is only a not particularly brave compromise with far stronger alternatives story wise

    Of course, which the leaker(s) would have broken, just like they have in the past.

    You know that every detail of TFA leaked, right?

    People then said "there is no way JJ would allow all these leaks for a Star Wars movie" and "there is no way JJ would have Luke in the movie for only 30 seconds" etc.


    History says that JJ is really, really, really bad at preventing leaks. Like, really bad.

    Not sure where all the JJ worship comes from.


    But, either way, the logic of "there is no way the ending leaked" is very poor. Just look at history.

    Not every detail was accurate; especially the first leaks. In fact, some where not even close; especially the ending. The general idea was there, just the details where wrong. Why am I "worshipping" him? Also, it's not crazy that they could have shot multiple endings.

    With Jason Ward reaching out to JediPaxis, I'm becoming less skeptical of some aspects of the leaked synopsis we heard about a couple of weeks ago, although there are still things from that synopsis that I don't believe are accurate.

    We'll see what ends up happening, though.

    Rey is Palpatine's granddaughter. Yeah right. Everyone is practically a ghost and showing up. Don't believe it. Palpatine in the flesh. Nahhh...

    I wasn't sure I liked the potentiality of Palpatine's survival not being explained until I heard Bryan Young and Holly Frey (of the Full of Sith Podcast) talk about it, which changed my mind about whether or not it would work.

    Not every element of a SW story - even something as game-changing as Palpatine's return - has to be explained, and expecting audiences to just go along with the story is pretty much a SW franchise hallmark anyway.

    If it is true that Palpatine has progeny, where were they during the OT and wouldn't he want them or him or her play a critical role in his Galactic Empire? Will they show up in this movie? I mean, right there, is a complete story unto itself.

    "Finn and Rose are a thing in the movie but throughout the film, Finn has something he wants to tell Rey but doesn’t get the chance to. Speculates it could be Finn wanting to know if he and Rey could be a thing with Jason hearing that info recently and a long time ago."

    This sounds like bull.

    Jason thinks that some characters are going to get the Han Solo treatment in Return of the Jedi for example Poe reaches the end of his arc in The Last Jedi.

    I don't really understand this sentence...

    The whole supposed leak sounds like bull. More like planted leak. I mean the title never leaked and there are so many things that are not even touched upon. Palpatine never leaked and nobody knew a thing until the cackle at Celebration.

    And the ending to this so called leak would make me snore. Also Finn who has teh second most screen time there is really nothing in it. the KoR who has been hyped barely a drizzle.

    The more I read the less I am sure these guys know what they’re talking about.

    And not because the things they talk about look bad, but because they’ve spoke so far about too many different things with too much contradictions.

    The impression I’ve got is that even if I am sure they try to double check or to look for confirmations from different sources, at the end of the day they are not in the position to value the trustworthy of them all.
