    She's an attractive gunner, he's a handsome pilot, perhaps he can teach her something new?

    Let's be careful with that line of discussion.

    Not ruling out general discussion of it, just steering things due to some poster concerns about possible insinuations being made above.

    I mean I'm interested to learn more about Paige as a character, but idolatry seems a little much.

    I have a feeling that Paige is going to be really jealous that her sister Rose works in maintenance and in Piage's scene with Poe she's going to tell him, "I appreciate you taking the time to train me as a gunner but my heart belongs to maintenance" and then she's going to leave the Resistance to go to maintenance school and that's the last we see of her. That's the big twist in TLJ.

    I had this idea the other day that the little girl Jyn saves on Jedha was actually Paige Tico and Chirrut was her uncle which is why he ended up helping Jyn and Cassian when they were caught. Then at some point in TLJ Rose talks to Finn about her uncle and he's inspired by the story to "Go Rogue" when he disobeys Admiral Holdo to go on the mission to Canto Bight. It's a bit much I admit. :p

    I've been thinking about something. What if female character, whose screen time was reduced, is actually Paige? We know now that it isn't Rose cause Rose is a big player. But the rumor could have mixed up Rose and Paige since Paige character and casting were flying under the radar. Originally, casting call was for 3 female characters, one older (Holdo, obviously) and 2 younger. It was believed, after Rose turned out to be a big role after all, that Rose and other female character were merged in one. But I think that those characters were Rose and Paige and that Paige got reduced while Rose may have gotten some stuff to do that Paige was originally.

    of course, there's a possibility that the rumor about character reduction is entirely false and that everyone is exactly as they were before changes to the script (that were supposedly made to beef up TFA characters and minimize new ones which doesn't sound too convincing).

    I think the rumor holds water because the guy who mentioned it also mentioned that the particular role that ended up as Rose was cast with an unknown Actress of asian origins, several weeks before they announced filming and that Kelly was cast.
    The slightly older part was meant for someone in her thirties, and Veronica is in her 30s. It all adds up.

    It was a light-hearted remark, the Mod stepped in with a warning yet you still had to bring it up over a month later?

    I wouldn't mind the Tico sisters being the children of Sosha Soruna, especially given her being on friendly terms with Leia, being a pilot and helping defend Naboo during Operation Cinder.

    [​IMG]

    The children of three of Leia's old friends/acquaintances joined the resistance- Poe(Shara Bey), Kor Sella(Sondiv Sella) and Snap Wexley (Norra Wexley)....so it would make sense for people who knew Leia personally to send their children to help her with the resistance (considering people who didn't know her would be suspicious of her after the Vader parentage reveal).

    As for Paige, I think she doesn't need to be killed off just to give Rose the motivation to fight- Finn and his heroic deeds can be inspiration enough. Paige might have a small role in the movie itself but her story could easily be explored in novels and novels, like the Black squadron characters are fleshed out in the Poe comics.

    My half serious headcannon is that a lot of the younger people in the resistance have parents who were close to the Organa-Solo family in some capacity. I could go either way with the Tico sisters being in that camp
