726770, Rian took Kylo’s words to heart: Fuck the past Posted by LA2Philly, Thu Dec-21-17 09:51 AM
The main theme was so damn good - it’s not a “bloodline” that makes you special, anyone can be the one who brings balance to the force. Like Luke said - if the force is in all of us and around all of us, then it shouldn’t only be the “Jedi” who are asked to use it and canonized for it.
The fact that many dislikes are coming from what people assumed or expected makes what Rian did all that much better: he flipped so many of the basic SW cliches.
Lastly, the Ren-Kyle-Snoke scene and ensuing battle may be my 2nd fav of the series- 2nd only to the twin suns on Tatooine
So good technically and thematically. Haven’t been enveloped in a SW cinematic experience to this degree for a very long time.
