   But what Maz says, 'It belonged to Luke Skywalker, and to his father before   
   him. And now it's calling to you' (I'm paraphrasing) makes a strong point. As   
   much as I would hate it.

   Why, Jar-Jar Binks, of course. (I'm kidding; but that reddit post *does* make   
   a lot of good points.)

   I'm generally a bit afraid of Abrams/Disney purposefully leaving open ends in   
   the movies to be able to sell even more SW books and comics than they already   
   did with the EU.
