Haha, thanks for saying that. At first I was actually thinking we could see flashes of the vision to imply Luke sense what she was thinking, but then I remembered Rey literally says she saw herself on the throne…
I had the same thought process. I was like “I can’t do the flashes again” but then I watched the scene and yeah she mentions the vision and even uses the “saw” terminology to match with the new potential Luke line.
The “in” could come from “A thousand generations live in you now”.
Yeah, perhaps if that is too much, he could just say, “And you will be lost.”
I’ll have to try things out.
One idea I had about that Finn/Jannah moment. First, you could cut Jannah’s line, “You say that like you’re sure it’s real”, and either extend that shot after she stops talking to make it a simple reaction shot of her, or use a different reaction shot of her. Then, you could cut Finn’s line, “It’s real” with something else. This is what I’m thinking right now.
Finn: The Force. The Force brought me here. It brought me to Rey. And Poe.
Jannah watches Finn as he continues to speak.
Finn: The Resistance. It’s where we belong.
Cut back to Finn.
Finn: I wasn’t sure then, but I am now.
Hmm you know that’s pretty clever. Honestly you might not even need the “it’s” depending on how it sounds.
I’m not sure a good place to pull “The Resistance” from, but I know he must say it a few times throughout the films. You could pull “where we belong” from that TLJ deleted scene. It could be nice to utilize Rose’s theme here, as well, especially if you have trouble isolating that line from the score.
Yes, I’d definitely want to quote Rose’s theme for that scene if we can work in new lines.
I feel like this would be a natural way to get to that point without the lines feeling too choppy, but you never know with this sort of thing until you try it.
Perhaps we could figure something out with dialogue in the scene. Maybe Finn could say some variation of:
And it brought you here.
And it brought me to you.
Now it brought you to me.Or something even more subtle, like:
The Force. The Force brought me here. It brought me to Rey. And Poe.
Cut to Jannah.
Finn: Now you.
Jannah: You say that like you’re sure it’s real.
Maybe not as clear as the other idea, but some line like one of these might be more seamless, but still get a hint of that idea across.
Good to have other options to play with, we’ll see what we can do!
