I saw Phantom in theater when it was released. I wasn't really a Star Wars fan at the time (I was 10 and had only seen bits of A New Hope) but I did fall in love with...

Holy shit

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Even within the confines of the EU (which is where most of the Sith lore lies), which doesn't really count, the Rule of Two was not the origin of the Sith.  Darth Bane established that rule, some time after there were already Sith Lords.

The Sith Lords were originally Dark Jedi (whatever the hell that means - again, it's EU, which doesn't matter). 

So there is no reason why there couldn't arise other Dark Jedi who found a new Sith Order of some kind.  And if so, there is no reason to think that they would have to continue with the Rule of Two.  That obviously didn't work out so well.

All of this!

My inner geek is tingling right now.

I've not seen it mentioned yet :

"My father HAS it. Not HAD "



I keyed on that too, but what really piqued my interest was the "You have that power too" part.  Which seems to me that whoever he's talking to might  be a new family member ......

As far as the HAS part, I could see him saying that about his father that has moved on (Dead in this realm).  I mean, they can commune with them in the next realm, so are they really dead?  I'd say no, so HAS would be appropriate.

Although it has been said several times already in this thread, that is a direct quote from ROTJ (except the last line).  The dialog goes:

Quote
Luke: If I don't make it back, you're the only hope for the Alliance.

Princess Leia: Luke, don't talk that way. You have a power I don't understand and could never have.

Luke: You're wrong, Leia. You have that power too. In time you'll learn to use it as I have. The Force runs strong in my family. My father has it. I have it. And... my sister has it. Yes. It's you, Leia.

Princess Leia: I know. Somehow, I've always known.

It sounds like they just recut it for TFA to reflect the younger Skywalker that we already have known for quite some time is a central character in this film.

They have children, the children have the force.  I know that was the books but I'll assume since they are all older that's where they are going.

Guys, I'm scared. If they over-reference the OT, it would really be annoying and could make for a really bad movie. (e.g. Leia and Han having an "I love you"-"I know" exchange or something. A "Tashi station" reference could be funny though.)

I think that a little bit of it might be inevitable, but if JJ is smart he will keep it to a minimum.

The TOS referencing in Star Trek 2009 was the perfect amount.

ST2009 was a great film and easily the best ST for some time.

And JJ clearly wanted to make SW the whole time so he doesn't

have to pretend anymore. He can actually make a SW film.

Potentially the best SW movie.

Agreed. I mean think of it, he had a bit of nostalgia in Star Trek, then fucking blew up Vulcan. :lol

Yup, that's believed to be Captain Phasma, Finn's former superior and the person in charge of hunting him down after his defection at the start of the film. I'm hoping they keep her alive through out the rest of the trilogy, so she can be the badass that Boba Fett never fulfilled his promise on being.
