Everyone flipped their collective minds (predictably) when the new SW trailer came out, and apparently now people are mad about the title. Why? Who knows. A lack of other things to do, apparently.
In any event, everyone is now worried that Abrams movie will undo some of the details from Rian Johnsons "The Last Jedi", even though almost everyone on the internet seems to hate it. Mainly, the concern is that the new film will see Rey as having Jedi lineage after all, as Skywalker's daughter.
Here's what J.J. had to say in a recent interview with ET Online:
“The title feels like it’s the right title for this movie, and I know that it’s provocative and asks a bunch of questions,” Abrams recently told ET Online. “But I think when you see the movie, you’ll see how it’s intended, what it means. In the flow of titles, this movie had a very weird responsibility. It had to be the end of not just three movies, but nine movies, and the idea of having to incorporate the stories that have come before strangely is the story of the movie. Which is to say it’s the characters in the film inheriting everything that’s come before in previous generations, whether it’s sins of the father, whether it’s the wisdom that they’ve acquired. And the question is this new generation, are they up to the task, can they stand up to what they have to? And so in a way, I feel like we coming into this movie have inherited a lot, and the question is can we do it? And that question we ask ourselves every day.”
