    Yeah & although i didn't read much of the old EU many hated the NJO stories. Especially Jacen turning to the dark side AFTER he did an amazing feat. Becoming 1 with the Force STILL ALIVE.

    I seem to be in the same place in regards Rey being Luke's daughter.. but i concede that i don't know, don't mind and my opinion will continue to waver.

    I always go back to a story told by our wise green little friend:-

    One day I was walking and I found this big log
    Then I rolled the log over
    And underneath was a tiny little stick
    And I was like, "That log had a child!"


    I think that.. yes, that Log is Luke and that stick is Rey.

    it's friday.. yes i'm going to be this silly for the whole rest of the weekend starting now :p

    I selected other.

    Before TFA, I believed she was Luke's or a Solo.

    After TFA, I believed she was Luke's.

    Now...I don't care. I just want a good story.

    I don't care any more, because it's not 2015 any more. I've already guessed that LFL will have chosen Rey's parents to be the least original and safest choice available because they're terrified about upsetting the audience and harming their profits.
    ;)

    At this point it would kinda be a let down if the twist is that she is Lukes daughter, imo at least

    Fans have already concocted theories involving every conceivable route they could take. Frankly, any attempt at a 'twist' with her lineage is going to fall flat, which is why the mystery itself is likely a distraction.

    Yup. Still where I am, where I was by the end of TFA.
    When I'm told who she is, then I'll know who she is.

    After TFA, for a long time I thought she was Luke's daughter, because the movie pointed in that direction, but the more I think about it, the more convinced I am that she's not a Skywalker.

    Why? Because the movie made us believe that she had a connection with Luke, and if they didn't tell us who her parents were, it's because it's gonna be a twist, so why point in Luke's direction if they want to surprise us?

    Because Luke isn't her father.

    That's my guess. Can't wait to find out!

    Same thought completely. It was so "obvious" to me at first that Rey was a Skywalker, but now that I've had a year and a half to think it over, I feel like the obvious choice is the last one they'll settle with.
