Don't read this if you haven't watched it yet...

I had a free ticket to the premiere showing locally at 7pm... I was nice to skip right past everyone else that had been waiting in line all day for the other showings :P
Anyway, I think the theory above is very plausible. If you pay attention to what Han Solo says when they all meet up on the Falcon, he says that Luke was training knightS, meaning more than just Kylo... A lot of people I talk to failed to catch that, and just assumed it was Luke and Kylo training...
Theories aside, I watched episode IV, V and VI over the course of a couple days prior to going to watch VII, then went back and watched I, II, and III after I had seen VII (didn't have time to watch them all before the movie)...
All in all, I did enjoy the movie. But the plot points made me feel like I was just watching a conglomeration of IV and V all over again with some new people... Kylo I am your Grandfather... Kylo you have to face your father... Let's all fly down this trench to attach the Deathstar,,, errrr I mean Star Killer Base...
I think they played it way safe after the "failure" of the I-III prequels, not wanting to stray too far from the original IV-VI trilogy as to not piss off hardcore OG fans... Where we go from here with VIII and IX will be interesting for sure. Hopefully they don't turn into a big steaming pile of $4!7 moving forward.
