That does not make any sense whatsoever. No amount of leaps and bounds would ever get anyone from point A, to somehow divining point B.
You're right, everything doesn't have to be a big shocking reveal, but it's rumored there is going to be a big reveal in this movie, yeah it could be about something totally different but it could possibly be about Rey's parentage.
Rey being a random is not a big reveal. If anything, it's the most likely scenario at this point when considering the timelines. Regardless, that has nothing to do with the point, and the only ones hyping up a big reveal is fansites like this one.
Lol okay buddy. That's your opinion. But I can see how doing it again would cheapen Anakin's character.
Take a basic class in economics, or just use common sense, and you'd realize how it cheapens Anakin's character.
Anakin being basically a demi god = 1.
1/1=1.
Rey being basically a demi god = 1.
1+1=2.
1/2 = .5, where 1 is the value of something and 2 is the amount of that something.
The more something is done, the less of an impact it has. The first lightbulb was hot shit when it was invented. It's now in every home in the western world, and no one breaks down into tears when they can see at night because lightbulbs no longer have value. This is not that hard of a concept to grasp.
And no, Rey being another member of an important family does not lessen what Luke or Anakin did on their own, just as long as she becomes her own person and accomplishes different goals that do not amount to her doing the exact same thing they did. Not that it matters because I explicitly said that this was a problem with the sequel trilogy as a whole.
Btw, might want to stop the rambling. It's as if you responded just to say you responded, and in that case, feel free to have the last word. It's really not that important.
