You got it, Spence!

But yeah, I could see a benefit of finding a balance between making it purely just fighting, but maybe having just a bit of dialogue retained to help with tension. Or maybe you could keep more of the dialogue shots if Kylo isn’t obviously talking (like his helmet isn’t bobbing from his mouth/jaw movement). They could just be staring down each other, like one does in a good samurai duel, rather than Kylo talking at every opportunity. Maybe the audio could be rebuilt to make it more of a scoreless duel. Not really fond of the music hear anyway, it’s pretty erratic (or maybe I’ve just listened to it too many times…)

I also still think there is an opportunity to use this scene to solidify Rey’s motivation for wanting to harness her power. Giving Kylo lines like this:

“You need it/power, to keep them safe.”

“Rey, I know what happens to them.”

“Tell me where you are. I know the whole story.”

“The battle is lost. The Resistance, they will not succeed… you’ve seen it.”

And then replacing the parent visions with shots of the battle and her friends in danger. Maybe I’ll have some time next time to attempt this, but this is sort of my ideal change to this scene. It’s just hard to change Kylo’s dialogue because of how his lines echo into the other channels.
