Opening action scene for IX: Rey with a purple double bladed lightsaber and Finn with the Darksaber vs Kylo and the Knights of Ren in a broken down Empire ship on Jakku as BB-8 blares duel of fates.
If Rey were in love with Kylo Ren or had even the slightest positive feelings towards him, she would have taken him with her in Snoke’s escape craft rather than leaving him on a burning, bissected spaceship.
This is the SECOND TIME she left his ass to get blown up #TrueLove
I think they should end the trailer for Ep IX with Finn turning on brand new lightsaber. It would make us all scream and it would make the idiots so mad and I’m all for it!
The 1st trailer of TFA ended with Finn turning on a lightsaber and him and Kylo fighting with Maz’s VO saying “Just let it in,” so it would be fitting if the 1st trailer for IX ends with Finn igniting his own lightsaber and Rey saying “Just let it in.”
Poetry, bitch. It rhymes.
What colour should Finn’s lightsaber be? I think it’d be cool for him to have a green one. But it would also be cool to have a colour we havent seen before in the films.
(Also, slightly related – have there ever been lightsabers that change colour? Like..flicker from green to blue, or purple to blue, etc.)
Personally, I’m hoping for yellow, goldish color, but green would be dope too since it’s the color most people think of besides blue.
Lightsabers haven’t ever flickered between colors, but crystals have changed depending on the user’s affiliation to the light or dark.
I hardly know who I despise more: the racist fans who refuse to engage in any self-awareness whatsoever and relentlessly bully people who try to bring attention to fandom racism, or the shitty doxxer (and her supporters) who pouts and whines because she isn’t given the forgiveness and acceptance she feels entitled to. A plague o’ both their houses.
white person: i wanna go back in time when (describes time when white folks were crazy racist and xenophobic and owned slaves and thought scientific racism was real and wanted to wipe out entire minority groups) to fulfill my dream aesthetics
right..
Isn’t that pretty much what antebellum style plantation weddings are about
I learned what it is to identify to the core with a character when I fell in love with Chidi/Eleanor one day and Chidi/Simone the next. With all these amazing women falling for him, is it any wonder the man has a problem with decisiveness?!
I saw Elanor and Simon and assumed this was about Alvin and the Chipmunks. My brain is fried.
I thought I’d make this a separate post from why I think Rey Nobody is terrible cause this needs it’s own post as well.
Rey being a Skywalker, doesn’t make TLJ better. It doesn’t make the ST make sense, and it doesn’t erase the shortcomings of TFA for not delivering on it.
Reysky just patches up one plothole, but doesn’t erase the terrible, sexist, and racist writing of TLJ or the fact that TFA did a bait and switch and left Rey in a Mystery box for 4 years.
The argument that Reysky makes everything better, is wrong. It doesn’t fix what has happened. It would have made more sense if done from the beginning, but in no one way, shape, or form should it be thought as the cure to bad writing. Reysky is putting a band-aid on what went wrong in the ST so far.
Beyond that, I’ve seen some people use the Reysky theory the same way Reylows do to erase Finn as other protagonist of the ST. The most important characters of Star Wars isn’t just the Skywalkers. Han and Leia were just as important as Luke, Obi-Wan is just as important as Anakin, and Finn is just as important as Rey.
Rey shouldn’t be defined by what she is, a nobody random or a Skywalker, rather Rey should be defined but who she is as person, her actions, her struggles, her personality, and her motivations. Nothing less will make her a good character. Slapping a theme or last name on her won’t make her a compelling character. It won’t make anyone of the ST characters.
“The Might Skywalker Blood” is a terrible, terrible misconception on what makes a character good and if that’s the only reason you want Rey to be a Skywalker? You’re wrong.
The only thing I want from the ST, is good writing and compelling. I don’t care if the ST was set in the unknown regions of space and Rey, Finn, and Poe were all just randos and the OT only had small cameos. Just write them well.
I’m hoping Rey will stay a Random for these reasons, actually. If ReySky happened the blood worship in the fandom would be unbearable.
