Yet again I’ve encountered something that works spectacularly in text form but not so much in the actual film.

One of my favorite changes by Hal/Poppa is removing Snoke’s annoying descriptions of what he sees in Kylo’s mind and making it purely a moment between Kylo and Rey. But here, Snoke’s descriptions are the only thing that lets the reader know what’s going on without spoiling the reveal. Like, I could describe what moves Kylo is making and all that, but it really wouldn’t translate very well I don’t think. It would be too obvious and blatant.
