Would it make sense to try restructuring the end of Exegol?

  • Palpatine lightings the ships
  • Rey hears the voices and ghosts arrives
  • Poe says this is our last chance we need to hit those cannons now
  • Maybe use the quote from the trailer: “Let your death be the final word in the story of Skywalker” as it has more impact with Luke and Anakin being there
  • Rey protects herself with the lightsaber
  • Cut to Finn and Jannah blowing up the cruiser
  • Poe’s happy because the command ship is destroyed
  • Rose says Finn didn’t board the ship
  • Rey takes down Palpatine and rocks smash everyone, Rey drops the lightsabers
  • Cut to Finn getting on the Falcon and the Star Destroyer smashing into the planet
  • Rey falls and “dies”
  • Finn reacts
  • Ben saves Rey

Not saying this is ideal but it does flow better when Rey dies immediately after the duel. It would just suck losing Finn’s reaction
