Again. A couple spoilers in this thread.

Couldn't help but recall the Star Forge when the Starkiller Base entered the story. They are completely different structures, with inherently different purposes. But they seem to opperate on a similar level. Maybe this was a nod to the EU, since they said they were trying to bring as much of that in as made sense. And KotOR is one of those stories you'd expect them to call back to. But is it too much to hope it could be more than that?

I recently heard that Rakata Prime, not Lehon, made it into the new canon as a planet. And with the similarities between the super weapons & some of the other themes in the film, maybe there is a chance KotOR will be legitimized once more? It seems they are working the threat beyond the galaxy angle (KotOR2) again with Snoke. So maybe the Starkiller Base is Rakatan technology redicovered, akin to the Star Forge, & Snoke is descended from the threat Revan sought to end long ago. That would do well to explain how the First Order got the weapon. In the film they claimed they built it on the backs of stolen children (who were somehow still fit enough afterward to also serve as their military backbone), but that rang very hollow. I think finding the base fits into the angle of them & Ren so desperately seeking out Dark Side artifacts. The Rakatan of the Infinite Empire seemed like they were crazy & evil enough to construct such a weapon at the hieght of their power & decline into civil war. Perhaps bridging the gap between KotOR & TFA could mean a new KotOR title on the horizon. Wouldn't that be sweet?

Regardless, watching Force Awakens was a lot of as a fan of Knights of the Old Republic.

I have notice that too about the Starkiller base. The Planet at the Ending of the movie does remind of Rakata Prime. Also I would love a sensible remake of Kotor 1 and 2 that could have ties to TFA trilogy. Also Sensible Kotor 3 would be nice.

This post on reddit really make a lot of interesting comparisons between KoTOR and TFA: https://www.reddit.c..._force_awakens/

Many of them I would consider simple coincidences, but some are very interesting stuff that put a smile on my face. For example Rakata Prime being canon and the Scourge of Malechor!

It would be cool if Rey makes a Lightsaber similar to Bastila's. She'll need her own after returning Luke's. Her main weapon is a staff, maybe she'd even convert it.

Interesting. As I've watched the movie, there was something about Rey that seemed familiar to me but I couldn't place it. How she dresses is very much like Bastila. When she makes her lightsaber, hopefully it'll be a doublebladed saber.

[Vespervin]

Seeing her with a blue double bladed lightsabre would be amazing.

KOTOR was way more original than TFA, which is a ANH reboot, not a sequel to ROTJ. TSL was the dark and gritty SW story that Disney will never give us.

One of these days, I will go see the movie. Mostly because I'm a Harrison Ford fan. And yes, I already know what happens to him in the movie

[Jedi Comedian]

Han's scene with Kylo was one of the few things I liked about the film. Also Kylo's Revan costume (although he will never be what HE was).

[Jedi Comedian]

Maybe Rey should have a yellow blade as Bastila did, but I doubt we'll ever see that.

I also noticed the similarity to the star forge

[Shadow Quickpaw]

The planet Luke has been hiding away on has a name: Ach-To or something. I was really hoping it would be Tython (a lot of similarities).
