Why were there no force ghosts in TFA?

 No.11076

In the books apparently obiwan/anakin gave Luke and kylo a talking too before they left

There was originally a plan to have Kylo see a vision of his grandfather, manifested in a force ghost that's a weird amalgam of Anakins face and Vaders mask. They even made concept art of it. Pic related.

Of course it didn't pan out because this would've been an original and interesting idea.


 No.11080

>>11077

would have been interesting if Kylo hallucinated seeing Vader's ghost telling him to do shit but it was really just his fucked up mind and not really Anakin's ghost


 No.11085

Don't really think there'd be a decent point where a force ghost popping up would've worked.

>>11077

That could've been kind of neat as a hallucination or something Kylo sees I guess.


 No.11104

>>11077

Had Anakin-Vader showed up, you people would still be bitching about it being unoriginal. Be honest.

>ha they have to use OT imagery because they can't really come up with anything


 No.11110

>>11104

Anakin/Vader showing up as a ghost to tell Kylo off would have made more sense than Kylo whining to his helment like a twat. It would have also added some actual depth to Kylo as to why he idolizes Vader so much if they had such an interaction. Stay butthurt though because people are criticizing JJ's shit decisions.


 No.11118

>>11110

>stay butthurt over shit decision-making when we could have had something original and actually really fucking cool

as a matter of fact, i will stay butthurt

this would have seriously made the movie much better


 No.11133

One of the main characters is black. Black people are afraid of ghosts, even in the Star Wars universe, so the presence of Force ghosts would have been fairly racist.


 No.11150

One of my theories before the release (that would have also explained the lack of Luke in the marketing materials) was that he had already been betrayed and killed by Kylo and would appear in the movie as a force ghost "haunting" him. It would have added a lot to Kylo's conflict.

But every other theory I had that would have made for a half decent plot also amounted to nothing, so fuck it.


 No.11157

>>11071

TFA ripped off ANH

Ghosts don't appear in ANH

We will see them in episode 8

cap this


 No.11159

>>11157

Might as well just write out the whole plot of episode 8:

>Resistance is on a cold planet

>First Order attacks

>Leia, Poe, Finn, C-3PO, and BB-8 escape

>Kylo Ren is trying out who the fuck Rey is

>Orders Hux and Phasma to capture Finn as a trap for Rey

>Rey trains under Luke, who uses hamfisted Yoda quotes

>During her training Rey has a vision of Kylo and kills him. She takes off his helmet and her face is underneath

>Finn and co need somewhere to hide from the First Order

>Leia takes them to Old Lando on not-Cloud City

>Rey has a vision of Finn and co being lured into a trap

>Luke tells her not to go, but she goes anyway

>Old Lando is cooperating with the First Order

>Kylo Ren alters the deal

>Finn is trapped in some kind of stasis prison

>Old Lando helps Poe, Leia, and co. to escape from the First Order

>Rey arrives on not-Cloud City

>She fights Kylo

>Kylo cuts off her hand

>Reveals Rey is his [insert relation here]

>Rey doesn't join Kylo

>Leia and co. rescue Rey

>Rey gets a prosthetic hand, credits roll


 No.11167

>>11159

i really hate that people are instantly assuming we'll get an empire remake

jew jew abrams isn't writing or directing anymore movies, so we have some breathing room now

the film will either start with ren/first order or rey training with luke, guaranteed.


 No.11171

>>11167

well, they didn't exactly give us much to hope for, did they?


 No.11176

>>11171

this is true, but we have someone with a brain (rian johnson) doing episode 8, who isn't some self-proclaimed fanboy that pretends to have an idea of what he's talking about.

rian johnson isn't an ideas guy surrounded by fancy tech like jj is.

More like

>Rey has mastered her training

>Luke proclaims her as possibly the child of prophecy

>She knows all about that shit

>Luke is killed by Kylo Ren and Kylo's face is fucked up now so the mask stays on.

>She's already escaped in an StealthX- oh, those don't exist. Okay a standard X-Wing.

>They look to each other, smirk, shrug, wink, then fuck

>Rey is already flying to not cloud city with Chewie when they meet Lando

>Boba Fett is there with Phasma

>He reveals Rey is his daughter

>It's the living force that impregnated and saved Boba

>Rey is shocked but understands

>Kylo appears

>Boba and Chewie sacrifice themselves to stop Kylo getting to Rey

>Rey fights Kylo and bests him once more cutting off his hand

>Kylo gets a mechanical hand

>Rey then takes boba fett's armour and chewie's Bowcaster and duel wields the caster + her lightsaber

>Force Ghost Luke shows up and nods knowingly

>Yoda and Obi-Wan are there too

>Rey turns in disbelief "YOUR YODA AND OBI-WAN KENOBI!"

>They nod

>Snoke appears and scolds Kylo

>Rey makes fun of Snoke and teases him sarcastically "Am I sposed to be intimidated? Jeez!"

>Snoke asks Rey to be his apprentice

>Rey says never and tries to attack

>He's a hologram

>She declares she already knows where he is


 No.11237

You forgot the part where Rey gets surprised and her eyes bug out of her skull like she's Jim Carey in The Mask
