I’ll have to read it and see if anything could be nodded to in a fan edit.

Oddly enough, there are a couple lines in this (like verbatim) that I had the idea to include in a fan edit right after I saw the movie two months ago, way before the leak. I will say at this point I think only one of them can be accomplished, but still.

Thanks. I’ve added it to my script collection and I’ll give it a read when I have a chance. Again, I think having Kylo so conflicted for three films and it not ending in his redemption is a mistake.

It does end with his redemption though. At the end of the movie, Kylo learns how to drain the life force out of people, and uses it to drain Rey’s life force. Just when he’s about to kill Rey, Leia talks to him through the force, convincing him to give some of his life force back to Rey, sacrificing himself to save her. It’s a last minute redemption, but it’s still a redemption.

Here’s what’s dumb about this and why it is in no way a redemption: he is the one who is about to kill her, and his redemption is just deciding not to, and sacrificing himself so that she doesn’t die - except she still fucking dies.
