I told my daughter when we were sitting in the theater that I thought Ren and Rey were brother/sister.

Its possible, just need a whole lot of explanation as to how that happened.....while discussing their son during the entire movie, you would think Leia or Han might have mentioned they had a daughter as well, unless somehow it was hidden from them both.

Unless Luke and Leia continued to get frisky even after finding out they were brother and sister:)

The biggest twist of all is if she turns out to be just a natural gifted nobody without any of the original StarWars characters being her parent.  That would blow some nerd minds for sure  :crazy2:

It would be, but never will happen:). Star Wars is the story of the skywalkers, probably has to setup someone for the legacy since I will guess that both Luke and leia both die in one of the upcoming episodes.....

The next movie will also reveal that BB8 is R2D2 and C3PO's kid.

Ben probably did it with a Bantha before too long after being stuck out there

The second time I saw the movie I noticed Rey had a doll in her room dressed in a Rebel pilot's uniform probably from her childhood and later she put on a Rebel pilot's helmet after eating. Could they be a hint of who her parents were that left her there or were they just left over from whatever battle took place there-- the Star Cruisers graveyard?  Also Han knew the guy who took the Falcon, calling him by name. And in the dream scene, Rey was left with the Scavenger Boss as her parents flew away. But surely he would know his own daughter if he had left her there. Rey and Finn also have similar backgrounds. Both taken from their families while children and seem drawn to each other throughout the movie. Could they be related somehow? Who's to say old Anakin didn't get around more than we know? Must be the deep voice that gets him lucky.

I still think Ren is the one who left her on the planet since he appeared to be the last person to see her as he killed the would-be killer (unless additional scenes left out, which is possible)...plus, can't imagine Luke/Han leaving her with the Scavenger Boss, surely they would have picked someone else like the old guy that died at the start.  What is also kind of odd...until the dream, you wouldn't have thought the Scavenger Boss and Rey had any kind of relationship...just seemed like business.  Unless the Scavenger Boss immediately dumped her onto someone else like the old man:)  I was also thinking how Anakin could be involved, but I guess even if possible, it would have to be his granddaughter since these events happened 30 years after his death.

I even saw one theory where they believe Ren is some kind of double-agent, planted with the First Order to kill Snoke and that is why he is so conflicted.....so Han helped him complete his mission:)  We never saw the Knights of Ren actually kill any of the Jedi, maybe they arrived after the battle and that is why we saw Ren save Rey.

Then I even saw another theory that said the bodies laying on the ground were actual dead Ewoks saying the Knights returned to Endor to retrieve Vader's helmet to worship:)

Speculation is what makes this movie series fun:)

I could be wrong, but I do suspect they are.  I think the story is sort of following a bit of the books (the Solo/Organa kids, and how Jacen went to the dark side), and I think that would be great.  There was a lot of great material in books and comics after the original trilogy films, and I think it gives a lot to pick from. 

After these 3 films with JJ Abrams, I'm kind of hoping the explore the Old Republic as well.

It is my understanding that all three films will have different directors.

Don't forget about Rogue One. I'm looking forward to that one a bit more than the next flick in the trilogy, to be honest.

I'm looking forward to the next film too. I'll be old enough to get the Senior discount.
