-Removal of Finn’s yelling street slang, “DID YOU SEE THAT?!”

There is nothing about that that is “street slang” and also you’re probably a racist.

How does that make me racist? I just don’t think that kind of modern talk sounds right in a space opera that takes place “a long time ago.”

You’re honestly telling me “did you see that?” is a line that would have felt out of place in the OT? Luke easily could have said that instead of “I got him!” Was Han’s “Great kid, don’t get cocky!” not “street slang” too?

-Finn no longer whooping after hitting TIE fighter

Are you just trying to remove any sense of personality from Finn?

Just some of the dumb moments. The rest of his scenes are all intact.

What about Finn being excited that he hit a TIE fighter is dumb?

-Remove Maz’s awful line, “A good question, for another time.” (Basically, the writers acknowledging they wrote a shitty script)

More like acknowledging that providing an explanation would be pointless and unnecessary and only serve to waste time.

They could’ve summed it up in a couple seconds. Bringing it up at all without answering just isn’t necessary either.

Literally no explanation would have satisfied people like you.

-Cut out the interrogation sequence between Rey and Kylo (There’s no point to it)

Except it’s the whole reason Rey was kidnapped.

Kylo doesn’t get the chance to interrogate her.

What was he doing instead? Does Rey just escape as soon as she gets there? We never get to see her use the force before she tricks the stormtrooper?
