Wanting to be a Satanist doesn’t sound like being forced to fight for the First Order. Also most Satanists don’t tend to do animal sacrifices, at least LaVey Satanists don’t. They just like to act edgy.There are different circumstances overall but some would be satanists see horrid things and end up rethinking their involvement in such a group. Just like Finn.
Satanists don’t tend to steal children from their parents and raise them to commit murder and sacrifice piggies though. Also not all “Satan worshippers” are or bad, LaVey Satanism is really just rebelling against Christianity mixed in with edginess because uh special snowflakes. But that’s getting really off topic, in short the Satanist comparison falls flat for me.
No because the death of the trooper was a very short moment that was never mentioned again and Finn later grouped up with his killer so I assumed that it was a random Stormtrooper. Usually you don’t become friends with your friend’s killer.
And can you point me to anything in the film that points to the fact that Finn knew that Poe killed his friend or that Poe knew that he killed Finn’s friend? You can’t because there Finn doesn’t know that Poe killed his buddy and there were some villagers fighting with the first order when the Jakku Village was being attacked so how could he?
I can’t be sure, but I remember Finn watching his friend get shot and I remember Finn watching Poe be interrogated by Kylo. Finn’s shot was the only blaster shot coming from pretty much the opposite direction of the villagers after all and it was easy to line up that shot and where Finn was dragged out from. But no I really can’t as I don’t own the movie yet.
Also she put herself in that situation, some responsibility lies on her. She chose to chase Finn down, it’s not like BB-8 zapped her until she ran.
I can’t put blame on someone for their ignorance. Especially when there was no way to ascertain the truth.
If there was no way to ascertain the truth and not enough time for the danger to hit Rey, then I don’t think either of them are too responsible for being put in danger. I’ll still stand by Rey being responsible for chasing down and beating Finn though.And he did let go.
No she shook his hand off.
I’ll need to see the scene again then, but either way it wasn’t much of an issue.
And he could have said run, but honestly Rey was acting a little bit ridiculous in the hut checking on the droid that was virtually spotless after being shot at.
Yelling it would have snapped her back into it.
“Would have” maybe, but not definitely. Safer to not shout and act in my opinion which is what Finn did.
Her gender has nothing to do with Finn grabbing her hand too
Yes because guys hold other guys hands in movies to save them all the fucking time.
Well yeah of course they don’t, that’s just gross dude
But seriously, dragging her out of danger mostly has to do with the fact that she isn’t reacting well to the danger. While girls might get dragged around more in films, this is one scene where it’s completely justified by the situation. I don’t see this being a gender issue.
I’m sure he realizes she’s a big girl after seeing her beat 4 guys up
Actually it was only 2 guys. Still impressive though.
I thought it was 3-4, but maybe that was because of the camera cut back to Finn’s face.
And to be fair, she was kind of acting like a child in that scene.
Elaborate please.
Well you know, when you’re getting shot at or with a wanted man, you tend to recognize danger when the bad guy points and shoots at you. Rey just kinda zoned out and focused on the droid when there was still a clear and present danger. And whizzing (is that the right word to describe this) ion engines right above you.
I meant if she was having more trouble running with her hand being held. Throughout the movie, Finn and Rey ran at about the same pace as each other and in that scene specifically she was dragging behind a little so I don’t see the issue with him holding on a little longer.
It was unnecessary to hold her hand for that long when she’s capable of running herself. That’s the issue.
There is no issue though because Finn never expressed doubt in her abilities. Him holding onto her hand longer than he should have is just him focusing on not getting killed over letting Rey be the strong independent woman who don’t need no really handsome John Boyega. He does it once and that’s it.
I mean this is Star Wars, one of the more progressive series I’ve enjoyed. Women are never really damsels in distress and if they are, they help during their escape instead of being dead weight.
