My thinking is that if daisy riddley thought it was glaringly obvious, it means first impressions are probably right, even if there are flaws with them.

The stuff my feeling was based on could also be explained by Han and Leia just knowing her parents.

was a jyn a force sensitive or just wearing a kyber krystal?

Just wearing it. Neither her nor her mother (who gave it to her) were force sensitive though her mother seemed to have some slight affinity to nature which some people think indicates she had a sort of force awareness similar to Chirrut.

Thought kyber crystals were to be ultra rare... empires like, yeah our dumb tanks take 6 huge ones to power... but a lightsaber lasts forever with a little one

The Empire plundered the jedi temples all over the galaxy for crystals. That's where some of the large ones came from. They also strip mined Ilum (where young jedi went as a rite of passage to find the crystals for their lightsabers) to it's core extracting crystals.

Leia technically isn't a Disney Princess so she could pump out a couple of kids (illegitimate even) and not violate the rules.

Sometimes I think there should be an all purpose Star Wars thread for stuff like this but since it comes from an interview with Gareth Edwards ...

Gareth Edwards: The Last Detail

On day one, we were in Lucasfilm in San Francisco with Industrial Light and Magic and John Knowles, our supervisor, he said that they’ve got a brand new 4K restoration print of A New Hope – it had literally just been finished. He suggested we sit and watch it. Obviously, I was up for that. Me, the writer, lots of the story people and John all sat down, we all had our little notepads, we were all ready for this. I’ll add that I’ve seen A New Hope hundreds of times. So I was sat there, ready to take notes and really delve under the surface of the film. You have the Fox fanfare, then scrolling text with ‘A long time ago…’, and then the main music begins. Next thing we knew it had ended, and we looked around to one another and just thought – shit, we didn’t take any notes. You can’t watch it without getting carried away. It’s really hard to get into an analytical filmmaker headspace with this film. It just turns you into a child.

The question is, which version?

Just saw it. Good movie, not great. Not as good as Force Awakens which I thought was very good, better than any of the prequels.

Best part of the movie was the Vader scene. Which was very good but only because of nostalgia and it was an action scene. The only real emotion I had for the characters was Jyn and her father. Only because I'm a dad now and stuff like that always gets me.

Alan Tudyk was good as K-250. Blind Jedi-ish Monk was fine and his buddy, but they sort of blew it at the end for the characters imo.

I was happy there was no in your face SJW nonsense. I also appreciated the nods they gave to fans.

Saw it yesterday, echo a lot of what you guys are saying, first half was kinda gay, last half was awesome. Should have just edited down some of the BS in the first half.

Carrie is only 60? Christ, she's going to look worse than Hillary on a Sith binge in less than 10 years (if she survives that long)

Maybe someone with more medical knowledge can correct me, but I think as long as you continue to do CPR, you can buy a lot of time despite the person not breathing on their own.

I hope all of you putting this piece of crap movie ahead of the OT feel bad for what you did!

I'm sure some day 40 years from now people will be absolutely gutted when (hold on let me look up her name) Felicity Jones has a heart attack.
