I don't think the purpose of the scene was to make anyone look strong or weak. It was about struggle, but not for dominance. Those two were fighting for two very different reasons. Finn was fighting to survive, to defend a friend, to avenge another. Ren was injured physically, distraught emotionally, and very insecure mentally. He was getting in his own way.BurtReynolds wrote:I don't get too worried about the details when the scene itself doesn't work. Why is it there in the first place? What purpose does it serve? It makes Kylo look weak. It makes Fin look weak. It makes lightsabers look weak. They aren't relics of ancient power or dangerous weapons in incompetent hands, they are just swords in a world of laser guns and space ships. It accomplishes nothing. It's not only pointless, its detrimental to the movie.
I mean, someone else please? I don't know how else I inferred this shit unless it is there in some capacity, but I feel like this was put out there for the audience to piece together, although with some subtlty.
