Vader being Luke's dad is kind of a stretch already. Leia being Luke's sister and Vader's daughter is even more of a stretch. For something as gargantuan and vast as a galaxy, everyone seems to know everyone very well.
But then again: the Force.
Kenny, this post is just ridiculous. What do you mean them all being family is a stretch? Have you forgotten Episodes 1-3 that set up the whole situation? How could they not be family? I'm really scratching my head about that one. If you take away the family aspect down the skywalker bloodline the whole story doesnt make sense.
And that being said, I think like the past 6 films, episode 7 will continue to follow the skywalker blood line and probably will even be its main focus.

Kenny wrote: How is it shallow? It's evidence based on documentation and observation. It IS a stretch even if you factor "prophecies" and "the Force" into it. In all other forms of media, it'd just be bad storytelling but we give SW a free pass cause it's too cool to not enjoy. Yoda could've been Luke's biological Uncle and I still would've reluctantly accepted it in the OT because of how good everything else is.
And retconning is hardly a justification for "making shit up on the go". Kojima is also incredibly guilty of this as well which is why the Solid series continually suffers from each installment, cheapening the integrity of the original. I'm not even sure what you're arguing anymore. That coincidences are just fine? All the key characters should be just related to each other because it's tradition at this point? Geez, let's just say Palpatine was Luke's long lost cousin while we're at it.

Yes it does. Why do you think they keep encouraging Luke to do things to fulfill his destiny, and "bring balance to the force" which is the exactly line they use when they talk about the prophecy of who will "bring balance to the force" in the prequels, insinuating that Luke could bring balance to the force. Even the scene with ghost obi-wan and yoda and the whole "there is another" in Empire they reference the prophecy. Come on guys (Kenny and OL)... if you are gonna sit here and debate this you should know this stuff. I am actually pretty darn disappointed in the both of you regarding this. Maybe you guys need to watch them again as a refresher because some of what you are saying is just plain incorrect...

Yalls biggest mistake here is your are trying to compare the world of star wars to that of our own world which takes half the fun and magic out of the films. Its like saying "That would never happen!" yeah, maybe not in our world but guess what? This is the world of star wars, its all part of the charm, the lore, and aspects of what makes the star wars universe what it is, it gives it its own individuality and what has made star wars a smash hit franchise adored by millions. The wonder about what it would be like in another galaxy, what kind of aspects (like god and the force) could be different, the mere setting of star wars really tickles the imagination of what could be and its all part of the collective reason so many people love it.

Stop being so damn closed minded about all this PLEASE!!! Im not sure why YOU are arguing anymore, dont give me that.
