Maybe neutral Rey? Hard to say.

probably something like luke in the cave on dagobah (sp).   a vision of what could be if she isn't careful.

Last trailer gave chills, no lie.  Stoked at idea of Rey going Grey Jedi

Saw this on the interwebs.

I looked at IMDB and I think that's who it looks like.

After the all the movies made since 1983 being mediocre to poor, my expectations are way down. Maybe it'll be easier to enjoy the movie if I go into it thinking it'll be a giant letdown, but Star Wars has managed to get me the last 5 times in a row so...

If you haven't enjoyed anything since Jedi......maybe don't bother.

Grey Jedi don't exist because the darkside is cancer. The more there is, the more it corrupts.

Dark Rey is simply a vision accidentally spoiled by Starwars.com:

 

 

 

Edited due to spoiler, kind of a d move on my part.

I wouldn't go if it was just me, but my 8yo son is dying to see it. I'll have a good time just because he'll be so much fun, even if the movie stinks.

My best guess is that Dark Rey is a Force clone being used by or inhabited by Palpatine. Second guess is it's a vision a la Vader Luke on Dagobah.

 

 

As far as Gray Jedi, depends on how the term is being used. It's not the most useful or accurate term if you're talking about force users who live between the light and dark sides (its descriptive enough that you can understand it, but the vegetarian analogy is a decent one of explaining it), but it's a fine term if you're talking about Jedi/force users who distance themselves from the Jedi High Council and the dogma of the religion.

 

At the end of the day words are made up and you either know what the term means or you don't.

I think it will be the best of the sequels.  I know that doesn't sound like much if you're not a fan of them or the prequels

Grey Jedi aren't canon yet, but I think a lot of the premise of the last film implied that the Jedi needed to evolve into something more.  Will JJ continue that, hard to say.

That is what Luke was at the end of ROTJ, a Jedi whom acknowledged his emotions but did not let them rule him.

TLJ missed a massive opportunity to actually dive into it instead of having Luxe wax/whine poetic about how the jedi are dumdums.
