You'd be right. I'll probably just try to be more careful then.

so many questions after the new international trailer!
Rey is waiting for her family she says, what does that mean? Who is her family? Why have they left her?
why does the first order come and wreck her village? what was the resistance doin there?
what does kylo mean when he says "i will fulfill OUR destiny"? is it just because he worships him or is there a deeper connection?
what is kylos motive for the up close and personal moment in the forrest?
i of course have my own theories but i thought id directly drum up some speculation lol

Ok, new prediction...

Leia gets the the lightsaber from Lupita's character (as seen in the trailer), and they keep it on display or in a vault. Finn sees this.

Finn being raised to hate Luke, steals it so that he can get rid of it. When he takes it, he starts hearing whispers, and as he gets closer to disposing it we hear a faint "where are you going?" or "who are you?" whisper. Finn doesn't get rid of it. / Ooooor, he steals it and their base gets invaded before he can get rid of it / Ooooooor he goes and takes it during an invasion to protect the base.

I feel like no one would just give him the lightsaber - especially if it's Luke's. Would be like a holy artifact to them.

Luke's lingering connection to Finn would be what brings him in to stop Kylo from killing him in the final confrontation, causing Kylo to retreat back to Snoke, making Snoke pissed and excited at the same time, raising the intensity for episode 8.


So if Luke is connecting to his lightsaber, why didn't he go find it instead of building a new one?
1. Making one was a trial he had to take.
2. He wanted to mark his own path considering (at the time) he was all like "there's some bad voodoo attached to this weapon"
