    Sadly, F/F (femslash) is not too popular online.
    Now back onto Adam driver, I really hope they don't mess up his face in the end. Let him stay the wonderfully weird alien species that he is. I for one believe he is part of the same alien species as Benedict Cumberbatch. A strangely attractive person who you can't help wonder "You're soo strange looking...yet soo appealing at the same time". I don't want them to cop out and just turn him into a cyborg like thing cause "Vader and the OT did it!" :rolleyes:

    Raised the color/lighting a bit, and Kylo Ren definitely does look like he's holding a lightsaber. Oddly enough though, it looks more like Luke's second lightsaber rather than the one he lost on Bespin, to me.

    Yes it sure does. It's because Luke fights Kylo early on and loses.

    See this person gets it. Hell I have seen ships that have thousands of fics containing characters who have never been in a single scene together! It's called Lestrade/Mycroft from BBC Sherlock. Characters haven't been in a single scene together yet...somehow it's popular. I don't know why. [face_dunno]

    I am a little old for that kind of stuff, but I also find "shipping" fascinating. In fact, I find the whole fandom thing quite fascinating. Maybe in another part of the boards or in its thread? I'll might be a lurker, but it's fun to learn about those things.

    It's not odd for him to not have the Bespin saber, as this is a scene from a flashback, and Kylo is still looking for the Bespin saber at the start of TFA.

    Shippers should adopt Walter White as their spokesperson. Because there's only one thing that will stop the shipper train. And that's...nothing.

    Yeah, shippers are always so superficial. Hate when Vader gets healed into a "Beau" in fanfiction.

    They like their pretty people with their long pretty hair, which is why I feel like they are going to LOVE Kylo. I mean he has a lot in common with the tumblr obsession sex god known as Loki (dark hair, pale skin, interesting face, parent issues, angst galore, and a blonde british guy he gets into fights with) :p

    I think everyone should read a few shipping fanfictions because it blasts many stereotypes about women to hell.

    And creates a couple of them if you get too deep into it.

    But that's another story.

    Now back onto the topic of Kylo Ren and his pretty hair, he better keep that pretty hair! We need at least one semi-good looking Star wars villain who lasts more than 1 film! :p

    Kylo would be sad to see his thread has this many pages dedicated to "ships "...

    I just assume that Kylo is always a mixture of sad and angry. It's his lot in life :p

    The worst are shippers who actually get their point across to the powers-that-be. Best example: Arrow. S1 had Oliver and Laurel set up to be the show's leading couple. Then Olicity fans demanded Oliver and Felicity to be together. So, at Laurel's expense, they thrust Felicity to the forefront and eventually put her together with Oliver. Poor Laurel.

    yep, as I said from the beginning on it is Luke's ROTJ lightsaber that Kylo is holding in his hand.;)

    I have a beef with Supernatural's unhealthy love affair to the Crowley character.

    What are the chances of something like that happening to SW? I mean if a character proves extremely popular, they will probably rethink killing him or her in the next part.

    And that's why sometimes ships are best left to the fan fic writers. Can we just make a seperate "ST Trilogy and OTPs" thread?

    As somebody above said, I can totally see something like that happen. Lets say Phasma comes incredibly popular, and she is killed off in episode 7 (or at least we don't know if she died). You can bet they'll find some way to bring her back, either in an EU novel/comic/cartoon show. Money talks and if Phasma (or Kylo in this case) gets popular, I bet they'll exponentially increase her role in episode 8. I just hope it doesn't come at the cost of us getting tired of the character

    This is what happens. At some point early in the film, we learn that Luke has faced off with Kylo before the events of TFA. Luke was bested and lost his saber. Kylo has his ROTJ saber before TFA begins. Kylo now wants his Bespin saber as TFA begins.

    We also learn that Luke is "very powerful" and has achieved a power via the force that nobody has yet. He is the ultimate force user as TFA begins. He can't use these powers for a reason that will be explained and is self-evident in the first 25% of the movie.

    Just my opinion really. ;)

    Actually in the "flashback" that's when Kylo gets the saber. Luke isn't away somewhere. He gets bested and Kylo takes it then.

    I'm pretty sure Kylo is definitely not going to "best" Luke...

    Maybe Luke tries to reach the good side in Kylo, but this time it does not work out? Or Luke surrenders to save someone else?[face_dunno]
