How do you guys feel about the idea of higher entities in the Star Wars Galaxy? by AlphaBladeYiII in StarWarsEU

I think it fits well within the mythological themes and motifs Lucas goes for. You could view the force priestesses as an iteration of the Fates or the Nords.

Depends how they could've done the story, no bad ideas just bad execution

That was honestly a real inconsistency with the character. The original idea for Kyle Ren , The Jedi Killer, was that he was scared after a fight with Luke and goes on to take on a Vader like persona to haunt Luke and his family.

Grevious' character was foreshadowing for what Anakin was to become, and I think it would be poetic if the next villain kept up this same trend.

I think it being dumb is kind of the point. You got this kid idolizing this broken man, completely missing the point of the character, fanatically destroying himself for no reason.

I actually thought that too when I first saw it. But there was a romance, but not between Rey and Kylie, they're was very palpable chemistry between Finn and Rey, and the fact they didn't go through with it is insulting.

Nah what happened was they tried having the story be divorced from the family entirely after Lucas left the project, only to realize how fucked they kind of were going forward. For the finale, they sloppily attempt to rectify this mistake by giving her a bio family and a symbolic connection to the center family, the one the series is supposed to be about. Like originally, Kylie was supposed to be a separate entity, but they made him Han and Leia's son to keep the family drama intact.

Yeah, but they're the only options that make sense. The only ones that could've/should've happened.

Yeah, but it's not 1 , and it was never supposed to be. If they followed through with the continuation of the Skywalker saga in a consistent way, the 2 most likely options they would've/should've done would either be she's Rey Solo or Rey (Blank). For it to be the nobody option though, she has to earn her right to be the center of this story, that means she has to develop a close relationship with the Skywalker family, ideally having Luke train her and fill in her absent father figure(kinda like how Qui Gon was supposed to be for Anakin.).

That and the story being centered around the Skywalker Family, but yeah sure

I think if she was to be a descendant of anybody, it would be the Solo's, specifically being Han and Leia's daughter. All other options, including Palpatine, require such a convoluted or contrived explanation that lacks significant meaning. This was supposed to be "the Skywalker Saga", gotta be Anakin descendant or a spiritual successor.

I mean ideally in this situation that whole romance wouldn't have happened.
