Shippers are nuts, I don't remember all the drama but I totally believe that a few crazy tweenage girls would stalk and dox Driver.
Given how those 40yo women obsessed over that fag vampire from Twilight, I wouldn't be surprised if they were substantially older.
From skimming /tv/ about a year ago Reylos were rampant enough on it that a containment thread had to be made for them for some time, and they were easily as autistic as anyone else on that board. Not going to discount the possibility of some of them being dedicated trolls but they couldn't all have been.
Adam Driver doesn't have any kids.
I can't find it now, probably posted it on this thread, but there was a single panel webcomic I saw that had a shadowy figure (with round ears) saying, "Name your price, Mr. Lucas."
Give their demonstrated incompetence it MIGHT have been in the movie(s) originally then was cut out because Whinin' Johnson didn't like it's lack of subversion or Jar Jar Abrams couldn't find it referenced in the OT and got too confused.
The Chinese bootleg of Return of the Jedi would have Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung force ghosts, though.
I recently read the third book in the Dune series and I'm trying to remember who that COULD apply to...Faradn? Maybe? Although I was kind of under the impression that male heirs from the Corrino family were just sent to become Sardaukar officers prior to wielding political power.
There's nothing wrong with an audience surrogate- the original Star Wars does a good job with them, and actually kind of transfers the role from Luke to Han once Luke starts his training with the Force onboard the Falcon. Finn was a wasted opportunity for an audience surrogate since he AFAIK has lived his whole life as a stormtrooper and doesn't understand how normal society would work.
Yeah, that calls to mind an old Penny Arcade strip that basically calls out people using "it's not for YOU" as a means to deflect criticism from themselves. It's not a real argument at all.
In the terms of audience surrogate, I don't mean a character like Luke who isn't experienced with the outside galaxy, and who discovers things alongside the audience. I mean cutout characters in YA novels who are there to soak up affection and have little personality so that the reader can imagine themselves as this character. Let's make a comparison between Rey Sue and Bella from Twilight, then contrast to Luke.There's nothing wrong with an audience surrogate- the original Star Wars does a good job with them, and actually kind of transfers the role from Luke to Han once Luke starts his training with the Force onboard the Falcon.

There's an old wiki on Wikia called the Star Wars Fanon wiki. There's an Encyclopedia Dramatica article about it too. Back in the day, it was written by self-identified autistic teenagers. Yet I guarantee if you wrote a fanfic about Rey and Kylo Ren back in its heyday (over a decade ago), you'd be criticized as writing Mary Sue shit.
Neat, I may have to go give those a look.
I'm surprised there wasn't a Tardis or Harry Potter sticket on there. But very cool, VERY COOL.
