706290, I'm curious why anyone should care that Luke is Rey's father

Like...ok? Are they going to do the whole, "You abandoned me! I'm mad at you!" thing for the next movie? That's pretty boring. The reveal in Empire Strikes Back was interesting because you knew that for Luke to beat the Empire, he would have to defeat Vader. Yet at the same time, the audience knows that Luke is curious and prideful about how his father was a good guy and a Jedi. So which side is going to win out? The problem with Luke/Rey is that they're on the same team, so I don't really give a shit. And it's kind of sad that Star Wars has devolved into, "OMG...I TOTES think that she is his daughter!" Why would this be an interesting revelation?
