Any ideas on how to keep Ben alive?
“as I once fell, so will the last Skywalker” is depressingly anticlimactic considering the title of the film.

  1. Ben has no consequences for healing Rey, matching how the power was shown the previous times it was used.

I mean, that wouldn’t match how it was used before, at least not the first time. In this scenario you’d want to cut out Rey clutching her hand after she healed the snake and her saying that she transferred some of her life to it. I feel like the people surprised by Ben’s death must have missed this, for me I knew right away when he climbed out of the pit what was going to happen.

What I meant with “matching the other times” is that Rey never seems to be affected by healing other people. She didn’t seem any weaker when she healed Ben’s fatal wound. I agree that it doesn’t match Rey’s description though.

Well like I said you’d need to cut out her clutching her hand after healing the snake as well. She does seem to be affected by it there.

I think Option 1 is by far the best, and someone on YouTube already posted a rough edit of it:

I like the idea, but I wonder if it could be executed well. Even in that video, the reused shots are somewhat obvious.

Personally I don’t think that works at all and I don’t really see the point.

Could you be a bit more constructive? What don’t you like about it, and why don’t you see the point of keeping Ben alive?

I mean, same as you said. The reused shots are obvious, I don’t think it work. I also don’t see the point of this solution specifically, not keeping Ben alive in general.
