I have difficulty believing this to be true for one reason only: Marketing. [Reply]

Disney, baby.
Modern technology, baby. They'll find a way.

If Kylo and Rey end up having a forced love scene ala Anakin and Padme in AotC, I swear on Anthony Daniels' mother's soul that I will nuke Skywalker Ranch from orbit. And maybe Epcott. [Reply]

I haven't had any time to post any new rumors but the juiciest I've read lately is that Shmi and Qui-Gon had an affair in many drafts of TPM, according to artist Ian McCaig.
He intimates that she's a Skywalker and a descendent of Qui-Gon, which would be beyond cool, IMO. [Reply]
