A much better movie is probably sitting on the editing room floor.
What if
It's the kind of thing that needed several more rewrites.
Luke would have defeated Kylo, I have no doubt, but I find Kylo could have been an effective main villain because he's a weak and fucked up young man with a lot of power and he's petty.
Posted my comment before even reading this. Glad I'm not the only one who sees it.
It is shown...he put it in his ship just before boarding...its litterally the scene.
I think he's just done with Star Wars. His involvement in TFA was originally supposed to be minor and really blew up as the production became more difficult, and then Solo became another difficult production to deal with. I don't blame the guy for not wanting to jump into a third one. It does make me better appreciate Kasdan as part of the secret sauce on TFA. That, and Ford breaking his leg for six weeks so JJ had time to rewrite and add new things.
I mean the Hispanic pilot turned out to be a former drug runner
I never understand why people consider this a continuity mistake. Yes, her real mother was Padmé who she couldn't possibly have remembered, but Leia doesn't know that. Leia at this point still thinks she's the legitimate daughter of Bail Organa and his wife. When she's referring to remembering her mother, she's referring to whoever Bail Organa was married to.
That part was so incredibly throwaway and stupid. Just unnecessary. Considering that the 'wayfinders' were literally just ancient sith holocrons we've already seen in the cartoons they could have just had her sense it with her force powers. Just completely baffling
The dagger is the dumbest thing in the movie. Why would they even create a dagger with the shape of the Death Star wreckage? How would they even create that? The Death Star wreckage is in rough waters, surely the tides and erosion will make that dagger useless in the long run. Hell, the puzzle itself doesn't even make sense. The shape of the dagger only points the way to the Wayfinder if you stand in a very specific spot on the planet. If Rey approached the wreckage from literally any other angle, the whole thing wouldn't have worked.
So who did Sheev knock up, anyway? That bald lady from RotS?
Is that Rey's grandma?
I mean, neither do I but since you literally quoted my post to reply I feel obligated to respond. Maybe show me how much you totally don't care by not responding to me instead?
But how would they sell their Kylo merchandise and Kylo comic books?
Oh yah. And as I previously said they could have just given him some sith mcguffin to make him more powerful in this movie. Literally anything at all. considering the unbelievable shit that actually happened in the film it's like come on people....use your imagination.
