#idk i feel like reysky just

Okay so I am seeing some ReySky stuff. And I have a feeling about it.
First off- if you like that? Fine. It could be interesting.
But I don’t. And not even for shipping purposes. I feel like it would cheapen what Rey has acomplished, what she went through, and that it would dilute the message of these films as a whole.
Rey is powerful and brave and a legend in the making because she is REY. Not because she comes from some legacy. Because she is her, because she made herself. The Force chose her for a reason- and not because she’s another in a line of Force Users. Rey Nobody tells us that yes, anyone can be great. Rey Nobody from Nowhere is a LEGEND. She is a hero. She is an absolute badass who weilds the Force and a saber- and she did all of it on her own merit.
If Rey is revealed as a Skywalker, suddenly all of her greatness is becauss of that. Of COURSE she is a badass Force User- Skywalker. Of COURSE she is our protag- Skywalker.
Rey being a nobody and still being as fucking amazing as she is sends a message, a message that I like and that Kylo even highlighted. They had the legacy character say, flat out, that legacies don’t mean shit. That Rey is special not because she is a somebody, but because she is Rey.
And I just feel like there is something super powerful in that.

if jannah end not being finn's sister, you will ship jannahfinn? i like finnrey but i'm a bit tired of black man/white woman in media. They lost a big opportunity in make rey black/brown, even if reysky was a thing she could be a biracial woman of color (luke is only dating darkskinned black women in canon books/comics).
Ships don’t matter to me, like almost at all. I mean it when I say I can ship any finn ship if it’s written well, if it’s conceptualized with care. It just needs to be believable and given clear thought and I’ll eat it up. It’s about the dynamics. I want Finn to love and be loved, but above everything, I want all of his relationships explored in writing bc the movies are not gonna do it for us. His friends, his enemies, his mentors, his family, his relationship with himself. Genuinely my only agenda is that his narrative is meaningful, I really don’t care how. That being said, romantic relationships are like…the least important relationship to me. It’s why I don’t write them.
All this philosophizing is to say that Finn having a family takes precedent to a romance for me. So, at this point in time, unless the movie either implies Finn and Jannah are interested in each other or gives Finn an official family, I’m not entertaining it. But the movie isn’t out yet so I can’t say for sure. Idk how it’s gonna make me feel! All I have to go on right is some leaks written my ppl that barely mention Finn or Jannah at all in a significant way, so I’m gonna do what I want until then. I got all excited for Finnrose and then TLJ said go take a long walk off a short pier. Everything is subject to change.
tldr: point blank finnjannah dont exist to me at the moment
#also bm/ww is annoying but i've said that a thousand times so i'm not putting it in the main text of the post#i didn't reread this and i wrote it hours ago when i first woke up so hopefully this is coherent#finnjannah#star wars#mo the force be with us#anon#mo answers

Hello naughty children, it’s 1 am rant time
So! My brain is slightly more together now than after the trailer first dropped and I’ve had some time to process all my Feels. I’ve settled on cautiously hopeful, with a hint of apprehension and a strong dose of ‘oh my god, this is really the end’. But overall, I think I feel pretty good about it, though it really raises more questions than answers. They meant it when they said ‘teaser’ lmao
(Rant is mostly positive, includes explicit discussion of what we’ve learned from the panel and the trailer. Some reservations and negative thoughts, plus a lot of speculation and touching on such controversial subjects as Reysky, Kylo redemption, and Hux in TLJ. Cut for length because I have no idea how to just use fewer words lmao)
I especially liked that it was so focused on Rey and that it’s a very clear torch-passing. Which, tbh, probably should’ve happened before now and did a little bit, but this really felt like the true moment of it. She’s the hero. She’s going to be a legend. I love that. Also that flip? Holy fuck. Slammed in the face by the reminder of how gay I am lmao. I have some Thoughts about it I’ll get into below, but from a visual point of view, it’s RAD AS HELL. I also love Finn and Poe featuring heavily and that the trio really does seem to be together for most of the movie. Which is nice. I think we need that. JJ said something in the panel about it being an ‘adventure’ and I think that feeling was captured well in the trailer. That part really excites me
Also! My boy! Kylo’s looking like a right hot mess and tbh I’m here for it lmao. I still have a strong urge to bathe him and kinda hope he doesn’t look like a depressed wreck of a human being for the entire movie, but still. I love my big messy boy. Also him just yeeting that dude into the ground? DAMN. I sometimes forget that Kylo is like… b i g. It’s a nice reminder. I also LOVE that the broken helmet rumour was real. That’s my fucking boy. I frequently tag him as ‘my precious disaster boy’ for a reason and I’m glad to see more of that. I would honestly probably lose interest in Kylo completely if he was ever like, calm and composed and not a complete fucking mess lmao. I kind of wish we’d seen just a touch more of him, but I know there’s more info to come and I still like that it focused heavily on the heroes for the first one. I imagine we’ll see more of him later
I’m… not really sure what to think of the Palpatine reveal. If he’s going to show up as a cameo of some sort, say as a Force ghost or something, then that’s pretty dang cool. If he’s going to show up as a ‘hello naughty children, it’s Force lightning time’ and take over as the main threat, I’d admittedly be disappointed. As much as I think a Kylo redemption is likely (and whether people like that or not, I’m indifferent and have made my peace with it as long as it’s done in an okay way) in no small part because Disney likes money, I still feel like replacing him with Palpatine is just… it feels derivative. We’ve had Palpatine before. A lot. 6 movies of him plus his appearances in the side materials. Do we really need more?
Now, there’s been heavy suggestion that there is some unknown threat that comes into this one and if that’s Palpatine, it would match up with the rumours. But I’d much rather it be something from his legacy with him only having a cameo. Because the really terrifying part about Palpatine is he had a plan for the continued survival of the Empire even in the case of his death. The Aftermath novels are really well done that way and tbh, especially with Chuck Wendig’s hinting on twitter, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see something from there come up. I mean, technically the entire First Order is Palpatine’s legacy. Something from his legacy could truly be anything and I like that possibility a lot more than just ‘oh damn, time to kill this asshole again’. Idk. We’ll have to see how that plays out
The title is also curious because it really confirms one of 2 possibilities: either Reysky, Kylo redemption, or both. Which, again, both of those are huge spoilers, so it’s an interesting choice to play for a title. That said, we don’t know which, so it doesn’t tell us definitively, I suppose, but still. And no, I don’t buy the theories about it referring to Luke or Anakin somehow returning; that would be stupid. We have new characters for a reason and they need to be the central focus. This is the same reason I’m not fond of Palpatine being the big bad; let the new villains shine. I also don’t believe it’s Leia because I doubt they had enough left over footage of Carrie to make that work
Of course, I would’ve enjoyed having a nice 0.2 seconds of the back of Hux’s head lmao, or even any info on the dark side characters at all because I’m a filthy villain fucker, but I’m not super upset about it. I’m kinda sad that Phasma is confirmed as dead, but I also expected that. My biggest hope for Hux is really that he gets to be scary and not treated as a joke, so I hope JJ really leans in to that. Let him have his moment. Let him be a credible threat because, really, he is. Tbh, I’d be more afraid of him as my nemesis than the vast majority of Star Wars villains. He’s got a higher kill count than anyone in all of Star Wars except maybe Palpatine himself (exact number of deaths due to the Clone Wars, the Empire’s rule, and the rebellion combined are unknown, but are probably in the billions, which would put him and Hux, terrifyingly, on the same level). It still throws me for a loop how often that’s forgotten, both by fandom and, sometimes, the official material. Hux is what happens when ambition, intelligence, ruthlessness, and fervent belief in a cause converge. I know he’s going to fail and he’s going to die in this one but, fuck, please let him die as the Starkiller instead of a ‘miscast tinkerer’. He deserves that much and, more importantly, so do I lmao. And Domhnall does too, tbh, because he’s a great actor who deserves better than being sidelined completely
(Another reason not to like Palpatine coming back: basically guarantees Hux has no role and gets completely forgotten because there’s a new big bad in town. I might actually cry if that happens)
I also know we will get more on the villains later, so we’ll just have to see how that pans out. As for other new stuff, Naomi Ackie’s character looks rad as fuck and I love her already. I’m also ECSTATIC to see Lando back. I fucking love Lando. And he finally got the Falcon back! Tbh I hope his role is rather significant and it’s kinda in line with Han’s role in TFA. I’m excited by that possibility. Also the Leia scenes… fuck. That hug with Rey fucked me up hard. I can’t believe we’re doing this without Carrie and it breaks my heart tbh
Another curious note: so we see a tie fighter that looks like a modified Silencer flying at Rey. We also see Kylo in a cockpit that definitely does not match the Silencer’s from TLJ. So it’s possible that was not actually Kylo flying at her, which raises some interesting questions. I saw some people saying they could see Poe’s jacket in the window but I think they’re full of shit and just seeing something they want to lmao. It remains to be seen who is actually flying it. The context of that scene is also odd: in what fucking universe does it make sense to use a SPACE craft with GUNS capable of atmospheric flight to run someone ON FOOT over from like 3 feet off the ground? It doesn’t. That’s stupid. That does make me think it’s possible it’s some sort of really risky training exercise, no matter who is behind the controls. I suppose it is possible that perhaps the guns were disabled somehow and the pilot is just going for broke, but the ship looks undamaged and that strategy still doesn’t make a lot of sense. The correct thing to do would be to come from above and crash it into the person while ejecting moments before impact, not chasing them like you’re driving a car. It’s dumb. I really hope that’s not real combat because it makes no damn sense to me lmao. Another reason lending to the training exercise idea: if I were Rey, I would’ve gone below, not above. She’s small. A tie fighter hovers. She would’ve fit under it easily and been able to slash from below without having to jump into the damn sky. Though, counterpoint: she has her lightsaber ignited and is turning to slash at the cockpit. Not really a nice thing to do to an ally of yours helping you train, hm? Idk. The scene looks cool as fuck, but the more I think about it, the more it bugs me tbh lmao
As a last thing… it’s really hitting me that this is it. This is the end of the Skywalker saga. Even though I know they have other stories planned with new characters at some point, imo, this is really the end of the true part of the franchise. How much am I really going to care about Star Wars without the familiar faces? After decades… this is really it. That’s… very bittersweet. I have loved these movies, always, but especially so in recent years (as evidenced by the existence of this blog lmao) and they’ve been a big part of my life. Yet here we are. And I just… I’m feeling melancholy about that in and of itself, but I also really, really want this to be a satisfying ending. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but I want it to fit. I want it to feel right. I want closure and I want this ending to do justice to these characters, including the main ones, the side ones, and the ones who came before but aren’t featured in this trilogy. That’s really what I’m aching for here. And I am cautiously hopeful, but I am also nervous. This is a very tall order and, while JJ is probably the person best qualified to give that to us, it doesn’t change how much of a challenge that is. It’s a lot. And… I am definitely sad about this being the end. Even if I love the movie and it’s amazing and lives up to all of my dreams, it will still end and this will be it. I honestly don’t know how I’m going to feel when that actually comes and it kinda scares me a little. But a satisfying ending would help soften the blow, so we shall see. Idk. I’m sad and a little scared just because of that, all other reservations aside
I think that’s all I’ve got for now? I’m excited for more and I don’t know if we’ll get much over the rest of celebration, but there might be snippets. I’d still like to see the Knights of Ren too, given that we’re pretty sure they’re in the movie but like… where? Lmao I want to know. Anyway. This is mostly word vomit, so don’t take it too seriously. My predictions could be way off base and we won’t know for a while so yeah. If you read this far, congrats and thanks for reading my rambling!
#so like I guess overall I'm hopeful but I still have reservations#and no matter what this being really truly over is... a lot to take tbh#so idk. mixed feelings I guess#but there was definitely some good stuff and I feel more excited about star wars than I have in a long time#even if it's not at the same level as it has been#positive is still positive so we shall see#I still want more info lmao#like just someone leak the entire plot already please I want to read it XD#shut up nerd#text#meta

Is it weird that reylo being the braver, definitely-not-done-in-mainstream-blockbusters-before option is the reason I'm hand-wringy about it? I haven't seen a lot of JJ Abrams' other work, but people on here have criticized him as a safe, conventional storyteller before, and one who has made poor decisions re: love triangles and bad endings. I'm concerned that they'll pull back and make it so they're ambiguously on good terms or have them resolve the trilogy having made their peace but apart.
No it’s not weird! I definitely hear your worries!!! And of course we can’t know or control what writers are going to do with a story so there’s always going to be an element of risk/doubt involved and we can’t say “they WILL do such-and-such” because we can’t know that. And that is both frustrating and comforting at the same time (okay honestly, mostly frustrating.)
Buuuut if I had to guess and make logical and likely predictions of how this trilogy will end based on what we do know, it strikes me as very likely and logical that JJ & co. will make reylo even more definitively canon than it already is.
And that’s mainly for two reasons. The first is: Rian has already done most of the heavy lifting for him. Rian has taken risks I’m not sure JJ would have. To be fair, he beautifully expanding on what JJ started in TFA- JJ did start reylo and I shipped this for TWO YEARS before I even knew who Rian Johnson was- but he definitely took that dynamic and established it even more firmly as central and important. He killed ReySky, established a believable and mutual connection and tenderness between them, and set Kylo up for one final, glorious struggle and then REDEMPTION !!!! So JJ has been set up beautifully which leads me to the second point and part of what I was trying to say but not saying very well in my last post, which is…
Reylo is not really a risk. It is at this point the logical, narratively satisfying ending. It’s………almost conventional, safe, and predictable- all of those things everyone says JJ is so good at. :D It feels crazy to say that because the star wars fandom can be so obnoxious at times and of course there are pockets of it that are aggressively against reylo and pro-rey skywalker but it’s still true. TLJ was praised for making bold choices and not giving the audience what so many thought they wanted and in response to backlash Lucasfilm has shown that they don’t take those criticisms of this trilogy seriously and so all that in mind reylo is the way-lo. ;D
Of course they could still end it ambiguously and it could definitely not be a clear-cut nor a fluffy, perfect, happy “romantic” ending (BUT I MEAN ALSO IT COULD, STAR WARS IS ABOUT HOPE AND HAPPY ENDINGS AND CHEESE HONESTLY) but Ben Solo’s redemption will almost 100% happen and his entire arc is wrapped up in Rey’s and I just? What else can they do? Leaving the door open for them instead of literally ending with a wedding makes sense and something restrained + a little bittersweet + hopeful seems like a sensibility they might shoot for with this trilogy and for the age we live in, but they’re going to have to at least leave that door open because like many people I feel very strongly that they can’t and won’t end the Skywalker line with Ben soooo….
IDK I’m kind of rambling at this point but to sum up: I think reylo is ultimately a safe choice that will be deemed brave by many and both the safety and the accolades of bravery attached to it are why I think that JJ will finish the story he started.

We are getting so close to TLJ I need you to help me survive these last 18 days by reassuring me Rey is a Solo! My hopes are going down and I need you to tll me everything’s going to be okay based on your evidence :(
Hey bud, hope you’re still out there. I’ve taken a week or so to get to this ask because it was a pretty heavy one for me, it just really reminded me how close we are and how everything that’s happened in my life for the past couple of years has been pretty tightly tied into the rey solo theory, however stupid that may seem… So… I’ve been writing Rey Solo theories since at least January 2016, if not earlier. The entirety of all my theory takes about two hours to read, if you’re quick lol. When I first arrived with my arms full of ideas there were only about 5 people listening to me, but then I wrote my first theory (which was almost entirely focused on mythology and thematic elements I think) and overnight I had thousands of reblogs on that post and more followers than I had blog posts. Suddenly everyone was asking me questions about theories, I made more posts as my theory evolved, and over about the next few months I got a shitload of hate as well - which, funnily enough wasn’t even from rey/los who are kinda the Nemesis of the reysolo fam now, but was all instigated by this small group of really bitter reyskys to whom my url was kinda of a punchline to a joke, synonymous with ‘delusional idiot’. They (or their followers? idk it was all on anon) called me a r****d a lot, which was especially hurtful since I was an autistic kid, and it wasn’t the first time I’d been called that. I literally can’t type the r word even now because I hate to see it. I mostly pretended I didn’t care about all this on my blog because I knew they were stalking it and I didn’t want them to know what they were doing was getting to me. They’re the reason @safereysolo was made tbh. I’d already been depressed since the summer before and this, on top of struggling in school and being closeted in my religious irish catholic family, made it worse - so in July 2016 I tried to kill myself. I haven’t explicitly said that on this blog before, or even told my close friends, but it’s not hard to see from my posts back then that I was at breaking point. My parents found out I was ill, my religious mother found out I was gay the exact same day, and I was put in therapy. All round a really shit day tbh. I’m safe now, don’t worry.After that all happened I kind of slowly pulled back from the rey solo thing a little as I was going through recovery, and around that time the reys parentage debate on here chilled out as well as? I think as it came up to Rogue One’s release people just weren’t as invested in TFA and so I got way less hate. I guess I’m just saying, there were plenty of days where it would have been easier to just abandon ship but I’ve always found this theory way too interesting to abandon. It did however get to the point where I stopped talking theory purely because there was nothing really interesting left to talk about, but it took a good year to get to that point and I was posting every day, so the rey solo theory Definitely doesn’t stand on nothing!This theory has had such a good impact on my life, despite the shit that went down in the early days; it got me published, paid for me to go travelling, gave me something to live for (because I sure as hell wasn’t gonna let myself die and never see The Last Jedi when the assholes that had pushed me to breaking point got to sit in the Theatre unashamed). I’ve certainly been through too much with this to give it up now, and why should I? The thing I love and that reassures me about this theory is when you look hard enough there’s an answer for absolutely everything, and it all fits so neatly with TFA. I can’t give a definitive ‘this thing proves shes a solo’, but what I can give you is an explanation of the facts that makes you realise beyond doubt that Rey and the Solo family fit together like they were made for it, because they were. I can show you when they lost her, that they talk about it onscreen, how it fills the gaping plot hole of ‘how could people like han and leia end up with a kid like kylo’, why Han didn’t appear to recognise her, and even how the music was written to demonstrate han and leias absence from rey’s life. I can show you why Rey stayed on Jakku when she didn’t remember her family, why Kylo feeling compassion for Rey (and hating it) is important and definitely not a rey/lo thing, why Rey isn’t her real name and where she got it, and why Rey, the Falcon and Lor San Tekka are all on Jakku at the same time. I have a good explanation for everything that’s been thrown my way, despite all the abuse I faced for it - so why couldn’t Rey Solo be true? and always remember: chewie himself reposted my theory :^)
No matter what I’ll always be glad of the people I met through this sw theory blog. I once got 150 people sending me asks telling me they loved my blog - in a row. 70+ people liked my post saying I’d got a place at my top university - even though it was mostly just excited key-smashes. Through it all I had you guys. Every time I see you referencing/including me and parts of my original theories in your own posts, especially the ‘we both had to deal with it’/‘profound tragedy’ theory, it’s amazing. I love you @ my reysolos
#safereysolo#rey is a solo#ask#suicide ment //#please interact with this post as if it isn't super fucking depressing#and guaranteed to bum you the hell out#i just thought all this needed to be addressed ...at some point#yes peter mayhew reposted me and its in the running for best day of my life

TLJ Spoiler-y review, pettiness, and info about this blog’s future under the cut!
I really didn’t hate the movie. I managed to enjoy it. Especially from a cinematographic standpoint, it was very well done.
John Boyega was my favorite, without a doubt. He did not get enough screentime - which is one of my issues with the movie - but the screentime that he did get was beautiful. I love him. Also, “Where’s Rey?” was BEAUTIFUL. My favorite scene was Finn killing Phasma!
Oscar, Daisy, and Kelly did great too! Honestly, everyone did. I hate Kylo Ren’s goth Snape looking ass but I do think Adam Driver is a great actor. AND MARK AND CARRIE. KILL ME OMG.
LUKE AND ARTOO’S CONVERSATION WAS THE BEST. WHEN R2 PLAYED THE “HELP ME OBI-WAN KENOBI” MESSAGE I DIED.
I was so so so happy to see Luke training Rey. It was so good. ALSO. SASSY LUKE. Good shit.
Also, the porgs were cute.
Now...onto the negatives.
Luke trying to kill Kylo? What the fuck??? Yes, I understand that he regretted it immediately and literally exiled himself, but still. Luke would not do that, regardless of how much he feared someone. It’s so out of character!
I didn’t like the Finnrose. Finn and Rey’s reunion hug was adorable, but I don’t like how Rose and Finn were the ones to kiss. I will admit that I found Rose’s crush on Finn cute (and relatable) but I don’t like Finnrose. I can’t see it as anything but one-sided. It may grow on me, but eh.
I still do not think that R*ylo has much basis in canon, but it’s clear that Rian wanted some. I hate it. The forcebond shit was so weird?? Like. Why.
Also, I OBVIOUSLY did not like Rey random, because....lmao. look at my blog’s theme. (if anyone is reading this in the future and I have since changed themes, I am currently a ReySky blog) Here’s the thing. It literally didn’t make sense! At all! Years of curiousity just to here Kylie Renner say “lol ur parents were randos who sold u for drinking money. ur a nobody #lolz BUT NOT TO ME!!!!11111!!” No. No. No.
What happened to “Rey’s parents are obvious in TFA”? Nothing about this was obvious! What happened to all of the PARALLELS? Even if you’re against ReySky, you have to admit, there a bunch of parallels.
Now, Kylie could very well be lying, but what does it matter? Luke is...well, you know. I can’t even bring myself to type it! I thought it wouldn’t matter if she isn’t a biological Skywalker because at least her and Luke would still have an awesome mentor/student relationship that resembles that of a parent and their child but no!! Sure, he’ll probably be a Force Ghost in 9. I get that. But...ugh. I just. I don’t know.
I didn’t expect him to emerge from the Sequel Trilogy alive. I’ll admit that. Obviously I wanted him too but I knew deep within me that it wouldn’t happen. My issue isn’t with the fact that he died. My issue is with how it happened.
The hologram thing wasn’t that terrible, really, and him watching the binary sunset was beautiful in the most tragic way possible. I will give it that. But to have him die alone on an island? No. Not only does Luke not deserve that, but it’s not like him. It’s not like Star Wars. Luke Skywalker was meant to go down as a martyr in an epic battle, he was supposed to put up a fight, and then one of his allies was supposed to kill his murderer. Or...something. But that didn’t happen. I honestly feel like it was a plot twist for the sake of a plot twist.
I wanted him to die selflessly. For the Resistance. For Rey or Leia or Finn or something. Sure, I guess he did die for the Resistance, in a way but...it wasn’t supposed to be like this. I don’t even now.
Anyway.
So, the big question: What do I do know? Well, I’ll definitely keep this blog up. I will not change my url YET. This will remain a blog to the Skywalker family (Luke, Mara Jade, their daughter Rey, her boyfriend Finn, Han Solo, Leia Organa, and their son Poe Dameron. As well as all of their droids, porgs, and wookies of course. Idk who Kyle Ron is tbh.) In other words, I’m going to go a bit canon diverse and post stuff that i guess is now considered an AU where Rey is indeed a Skywalker, with your usual splash of Finnrey, Stormpilot, and Rose. I’ll probably post the OT too, because that’s what I’m more into now. I wont say that i’ve written off the sequels entirely but i definitely prefer the originals for now. it’s honestly a shame bc i do love the Sequel characters. i guess i’ll post fanfiction for that and canon stuff for the originals.
If there’s anything in particular that people want me to post, I’ll take requests!
i haven’t read this post for errors and I am not going to, sorry. too tired

~tlj spoilers~
okay okay okay here are some thoughts now that i’ve seen it
.
.
.
first off the guy next to me was probably really annoyed with me because i kept making snide comments under my breath HOWEVER he wasn’t really reacting much in general???
that leads into how i saw a post earlier about how they noticed that compared to tfa where everyone was cheering to tlj which was ehh?
it’s weird bc i went to a 7 o’clock showing?? those should be big fans!!! there should be some high energy?? idk maybe it’s different because now we can choose our seats and we don’t have to wait outside early to get good seats and be sitting with other fans with anticipation?? but like... there were funny parts even my bitter ass laughed at parts but when there were only like a few chuckles from the audience? the part that got the biggest laugh was with luke towards the end. and only a few people clapped. on the way my mom said it did feel like they were pushing the humor.
ummm my fave parts were with finn and poe. they lit up my world. just bc i love them. i’ll fight people over them. i do like rose. just don’t like how they handled their first meeting. that part wasn’t funny whatsoever and over the top??? they kept trying to make a joke out of finn esp at the beginning and it wasn’t funny?? my boy deserves so much better. he had really great moments but he still deserves better. also f//nnrose was out of the blue honestly.
spent the other half of the time rolling my eyes with the r//ylo parts. and she started off rightfully angry but then he starts turning it on luke and she’s like oh maybe i can save him???? and that cave scene happens and she’s suddenly pouring out her heart. like girl idk but maybe this guy who killed his father, those trainees who had nothing to do with luke, AND who nearly killed you and your best friend is manipulating you???? then i had to hear from one of my fav heroines mouth that he was their last hope??????? almost threw up.
luke.... my luke... too bad he didn’t show up. i miss him. but honestly i couldn’t even cry when it happened bc i was like... wtf. i knew it was coming and i still was wtf
i’m glad i read spoilers and knew ahead bc i had already accepted what happened and i was getting bored at times??
and okay but my finnrey hug???? it was beautiful like not a quick hug and we got shots of both their faces just being relieved to be in each other’s arms??? there were still great connections and we knew they were thinking about each other even when rian had her acting ooc af. hopefully jj can get rey back on track and i can feel better about them two again. also it happened right after it was insinuated that she’s now the last jedi (after no training really) so hey finn can join her as another jedi?? yes yes jj get on that. finish what you started!!!
and lmao my mom was still like she’s not a nobody he’s lying. and i’m just u g h. it’s hard to explain why i’m just like let it stop!!!! bc id have to go into how hardcore i was about reysky like i could see them going with that angle whether jj retconns it or it was planned but like it would be so stupid!! especially when it makes more sense to have her try to turn him as a family member instead of what they gave us. and i don’t want her finding out when all her family would be gone??
and sorry i actually was sort of interested in that they made kyle take more power but he still seemed out of control and not in a scary way but dude wtf chill way AND i can’t believe one reviewer tweeted domnhall as one of the four top actors and i have nothing against him i like him but h/x was a joke???
this is really long wow and i still have more thoughts more keep popping up but i need to sleep and i’ll end up reblogging other people’s more articulate thoughts
