Do you think that would take away from Rey’s agency in that moment? Speaking of the saber, a lot of people have been speculating that Rey will likely build a new lightsaber using the pieces.
Placing the Luke/Yoda scene there is an interesting idea, though I wonder if it would affect the pacing any?
So you would cut them crash landing into the base and next time we see them, they are already inside, so we just assume they made it back to the Resistance in between scenes?
Knowing how OT derivative the ST is, I can’t imagine her new lightsaber not being green.
