I thought they said without a doubt, no room for wiggle room that Leia was not Rey’s Mom?
I remember that conversation when Leia hugged Rey after the mission and Solo’s death she ignored chuey. Everyone was like WTF? Chuey and Solo were best buds, Leia had know Chuey for 30+ years etc. why are you hugging the noob? If she’s not your daughter? [Reply]

Ok, no to all of that. I think Rey took the Skywalker name on her own at the end, that's all. I didn't understand the question, lol [Reply]

its confusing as all hell. For two years or more people wanted to know who Reye’s parents were.
Kylo says they were nobodies
Pallantine says Rey is the daughter of his son. Definitely not a nobody even if he rejected Dad. Even if it was a clone or DNA splicing/experminting thing, Rey still has to have female DNA to exist as a human being.
We deserved to know at the end. Ohhhh well we will just let her call herself a Skywalker and be done with this question? [Reply]

What? Weird posts.
Leia has nothing to do with Rey's lineage.
She's the daughter of Palpatine's son, who shockingly escaped the Empire's grasp and hid his offspring from the most powerful being in the galaxy!!!!! :-) [Reply]
The film was an epic disaster. While TLJ had its flaws, most notably the Holdo Manuever and the Finn/Rose jaunt to Canto Bight, Abrams RoS was just lazy.
IMO, anything would have been better than reincarnating The Emperor because it just destroys the entire narrative, from Anakin to Rey. And dedicating 80 minutes to retconning TLJ was just boring and dull.
But hey, Abrams got to make Rey a Skywalker, like he intended.

Whoopeee!
Pretty sure you mean "yipeeeeeeeeeee!"
I actually buy the "adopted" Skywalker ending, I quite like it...but making her a Palpatine doesn't jive.
They should have stuck with the "you're nobody" narrative instead of trying to awkwardly shoehorn her into an existing family...it just makes everything too convoluted and unbelievable...especially seeing as how randomly selected force sensitive people seem to be, anyway. [Reply]

There were so many different ways to go with Rey’s heritage, whether she was a Skywalker or even a Kenobi but a Palpatine? It makes zero sense.
We have plans to see it again this week and maybe I’ll be able to enjoy it more on a second viewing but I don’t think that the choices JJ made will ever be justified.
Ultimately, the Skywalker story ended with Return of the Jedi, not with RoS. [Reply]
