To be honest, Kylo’s interrogation of Rey is not as disturbing as what Spock did to Valeris in Star Trek VI.

I’m not a Trek fan so I’m going to need some context.

Well, like Kylo in TFA, Spock forcibly reads someone’s mind in ST VI. The overall scene is a bit creepy. And unlike TFA this film is a lot less subtle about the fact hat it’s supposed to be quite violating.

Here’s the scene btw; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1NgX-w54RY

I’m sure Spock did what he did for a good reason. Kylo on the other hand read Rey’s to not only locate Skywalker but because he could. There was no reason to look for the negative emotions and memories she harbors in her mind or how she felt that Han could be the Father she never had.

Oh sure, it was a matter of life and death for potentially millions, and the clock was ticking, etc, etc (last act stuff). My point was just that the scene was a little more “blunt” about it than the one in TFA.

I think the only thing that makes it more blunt is that Spock is physically touching her as he’s probing her mind.

Apparently, Spock killed that lady by stabbing his fingers through her face!
That is pretty brutal. Makes Kylo seem like a pansy!

I agree. Ever since I have read the things Darth Zannah has done with Sith Sorcery I am not impressed by any harmful Force Abilities in the films.

Both TFA and ROTJ are an 8.

I have ROTJ at 7.8 and TFA at 8.3

Are you a review aggregate site or something?

That’s for you to decide 😉

Are you alliance?

I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan.

Yeah, but are you alliance? I’m alliance.

I’m not exactly a film buff so what’s alliance in the context of this conversation?

Ugh, this isn’t working. Go be alliance somewhere else.

I don’t know what that means but okay 😃

It seems everyone’s favorite composer isn’t the only one who is infatuated with Daisy Ridley/Rey. She is one of the reasons why he is coming back to score VIII

Whoa whoa whoa, who said he’s everyone’s favorite?

I don’t have a favorite composer.

He’s my favorite thus he’s everyone’s favorite. Keep up buddy.

Also if you don’t watch ROTJ afterward him owing money and not paying it doesn’t effect the plot at all.

I’m sure this has been discussed at some point but let me reiterate. At the end of New Hope Han gets enough money to pay off Jabba the Hut, but in Empire he still has a price on his head. I don’t understand why he didn’t just pay off Jabba first, then meet up with the rebellion on Hoth. Is there a reason for this that I missed?

I’m pretty sure impscum can answer this.

Well unfortunately it is a plot hole in ESB. He could have paid immediately and return to rebellion or never attempt to do it again. As I said many times on this subject, if Han decided to pay Jabba after 3 years, there is no way Jabba would let him live even if he brought a huge pile of money. As crimelord, keeping ones reputation is the most important thing. A guy who fooled him twice in front of his men, has to be made an example of. There is just no other way.

Well I’ll be…Now let’s see if I can get you to see faults in SW and ROTJ.

Also, as Han says in Empire, he almost decide to stay, but a bounty hunter on Howard Mandel changed his mind.

That incident must have happened within a week or so of ESB taking place so why didn’t he pay it off in the 3 year time span between SW and ESB? I can understand taking a liking to these people and their cause but he could have at least sent someone to pay the bounty for him seeing as how he was a General in the Rebellion.
