I do absolutely believe that Disney is flying by the seat of their pants. What they want one minute, they decide they don't the next. The films we've gotten and their decision behind the scenes bear that out for me.

Regardless of what Disney thinks, I want the saga trilogy to be about the Skywalkers. Rey Random wouldn't bother me if it wasn't clear that they are getting rid of the Skywalkers and everything OT to make way for her. If she wasn't replacing them, I wouldn't care who she was related to.

I mean... I kind of feel like the main reason they're trying to move on from the OT characters is because the actors who play them are all old and infirm now (to varying degrees). We already lost one of the Big 3.

I don't really think they're doing it so they can clear the stage for Rey.

I don't disagree. But they could've done it with more class and care instead of just killing them all off and undoing everything they did in the galaxy.

I don't actually hate the new characters. I like Rey. But I want her to be part of the story that's already been told. She has no connection to the OT or PT or anything else. I agree with the anon below. She barely knows the OT people. It's not like Poe, who has come up under Leia's leadership. I am completely comfortable with him stepping up to take over Leia's role because he has spent time knowing her and learning from her. But Poe is a relatively minor character. He's not the one we're following. Rey spent two days with Luke and Han. Even if she spends time with Leia, we're not going to see it on screen. That's not satisfying at all. If Rey were actually related to someone else, she would have an incentive to explore that connection, which would bring back the OT or PT element she's connected to. Right now, the movie says she's looking forward so there's no reason for her to do that.
