Did you read my post?

The decision to have him throw it away over his shoulder was a bad decision.

yesss i was joking with that postttt

The choice was lame, and it was also very poorly executed. A wide shot, the score stops, cut to Rey's face. Looked like an SNL parody.

All I know is I stood on that exact spot :) and it makes me smile whenever I think about it. :)


Also stood at that stone Rey’s practicing on but had no idea it would be in TLJ
That blew me away when i saw it in the trailer

Something i forgot to mention and might be my favorite scene of the whole movie....Yoda and Luke. Both of them are so good. Yoda is great, back to his ROTJ character.

Beautiful moment.

It’s the centerpiece of the movie for me.

Yoda gives him the kick in the butt Luke needs to snap out of his depression and get involved. First thing he does is reach out to Leia and finding her injured is jolted an right back into it.
That’s the heart of the whole film. And it’s always missed.

So I just watched an early episode of the Clone Wars where Plo Koon said he could withstand the pressures of space for a short time. Kind of an early indicator of what happened to Leia.

Kanan also gets sucked out into space in an episode of rebels.

It happened too in the Eu books and I think it’s Luke and he erects a force bubble around him to survive


Vader also does it in the new comics. Goes underwater chasing a mon Cala and erects a huge bubble around him to not drown.

I do. Incredible moment. Made me tear up. Seeing Leia use the Force like that was something I've wanted to see since I was a kid. :heartbeat:

I loved that she did such a thing. She is a skywalker. She's in tune with the force. She sensed such things during Empire and ROTJ. Makes perfect sense to me in a survival situation she was able to harness such power.

I loved it but I hated how it looked. I thought it looked cheap. Too CGI.
