I have a bit of spiteful glee that Rey Skywalker just got crushed.

Re: Unpopular opinions

Ha, it wasn't crushed at all. In fact, Kylo was most likely lying and even Rian has said he doesn't know what JJ will do and that she could still be something more.

That and the forced Force Bond with the "futures" they saw? Yeah, Kylo "saw" her parents. Mmm hmm. Right.

People in 1980 said the same thing about Vader being Luke's father.

Just sayin'.

Re: Unpopular opinions

Yep, I remember that. I feel like most people were on board with the Luke Vader reveal, but there was definitely a chunk of people who insisted up to the last minute that Vader was lying.

I'm literally bookmarking this comment so that in a couple of years when the last movie drops and Rey is still not a Skywalker, I can just fill an entire post with laughter.

Re: Unpopular opinions

... Kylo was most likely lying ...

That's not remotely supported by either the script or the performance of that scene. For one thing, when Kylo does lie (to Hux), he's bad at it. For another, that whole plot line has been built around the idea that reinterpreting the truth is more seductive than a lie. Ironically, the Sith tend to be more honest in the Star Wars universe than Jedi. "Darth Vader killed your father" vs. "I am your father."

Claiming Rey as a sister or cousin would be more seductive than crushing her fantasy. It wouldn't work because Rey knows her parents are nobodies, and admits it.

Re: Unpopular opinions

While I don't think he was consciously lying, I also think that it was played and written in a way that made it seem like him not actually telling her the truth but rather echoing her own thoughts and beliefs back at her. At the very least, that's the loophole/backdoor they could fall back on should they decide to give her a different backstory after all in the next movie.
Personally, I don't mind that she's a nobody but I also woudn't put it past them to change it again.
