Avernite:
Eh, I see plenty of opportunity for both the film to have the correct answer and be utterly misleading:

(click to show/hide)Rey's parents were nobodies, but they first sold/gave her to someone important before she was abandoned on Jakku

groinkick:
Speaking of Star Wars has anyone seen the evidence that Jar Jar was supposed to be a Sith, possibly Palpatines master in the prequels?  This youtube video is somewhat convincing.

raidem:
Haha. No. 

I could see though, in line with some of what I've said before, that Jar Jar's 'clumsiness' is part of an innate force talent.  Though the point at which he stops being clumsy is a clue that he has then become vulnerable and made into Palpatine's tool or he becomes deadly serious and cautious.  In the books, Palpatine's master was still alive and active during the Phantom Menace despite Palpatine believing him dead.

It be pretty cool to find Jar Jar Binks come back to us as a wizened jedi/sith.

If you draw back the curtains far enough in the expanded universe, you have Abeloth in cycles breaking free of her prison manipulating events more until she is once more fully imprisoned.  These cycles correspond with the rise and falls of the Sith and Jedi. Abeloth is imprisoned within the MAW, a group of black holes near which there exists a tight passage to a safe spot within a center of gravity of the cluster.  The MAW is part of the created prison complex near the Kessel system and it is this black hole cluster (MAW) that Han Solo and others talk about when they allude to the Kessel Run.  They have to get close but not to close.  So that's it!!! Maybe the Kessel Run, the Maw, and Han's boast about it being 12 parsecs will be relevant in the next movie.  They will uncover a secret passage into the MAW installation. (The expanded universe already went there).

Have any theories on George Lucas saying Jar Jar was the key to everything?

raidem:
Well, did he mean anything much by it?

Let's say there is meaning there. Crazy wag time. But first background.

First,
Abeloth or something similar is locked up in the maw.
The ones are force like entities represented by tarot cards father, mother, son, daughter, servant.
Mother went missing, mortal Servant filled in mother's role.  Servant grew afraid of her death so drank of forbidden pools of knowledge gaining immortality but turning her into dark side creature abeloth. Son and daughter, brother and sister, duty then becomes to keep servant imprisoned within the maw.

Vader uses a particular weapon to kill the ones, brother and sister. And abeloth is now nearly, if not fully, free. I found a website that better describes everything but I'm on my kindle so can't link it.

Crazy wag:
Jar jar comes onstage to represent the ones, or is representing abeloth.  I'm more inclined to go with the idea that jar jar is or becomes a representative of the ones.  In the books, the Sith are the ones who are unknowingly representing abeloth.  So, she is the true phantom menace that is alluded to in the title.

In conclusion, jar jar binks is or becomes a representative of the Father who tasked him with locating, verifying the chosen one who would bring balance to the force.  Jar jar is following this path that will ultimately lead to abeloths destruction for good though there were many casualties along the way. He set Palpatine up to finally reveal himself.
