Important thing to remember: I actually like JJ and feel like he's outrageously good with actors, casting, infusing sequences with energy, etc. - it's just he always get tripped up in trying to surprise the audience and it messes up the themes, meaning-making, and resonance.

I'm hoping it will be a reference to all Force-users, extending the significance of the Skywalker lineage to the next generation. Or it could be some trite continuity bullshit.

I'm hoping he's picked up on his patterns, and noticed others have as well, and is looking to try out sticking the landing for once. I can't imagine it feels great being known as a storyteller who starts things he can't finish.

JJ's best feature is that he’s pretty good at hollowly emulateing another person's style

I think it's likely just a new kind of order. Not that she's literally a Skywalker.

Has he ever written an ending? Follow up question: why did he continue to get jobs after the absolute insulting disaster that was Lost?
