Risen from the ashes of the Empire, the First Order seeks to destroy the New Republic and once again shroud the galaxy in darkness. Then I also audited the whole edit, based on a great youtube video essay about “showing, not telling.” Consequently, the scenes at Canto Bight are greatly reduced, and Rose and Finn simply do not pilot speeders at the battle of Crait. I loved Rose in TLJ, but without adequate character development in TROS, it was best to minimize her to simply a person helping Finn on HIS character arc. Hux is no spy, simply muscled out by other power hungry commanders. Both simply fade out of importance in the final movie, but I hope I have not made it too obvious. Characters like Hux and Rose have been severely sidelined as they just do not have satisfying character arcs.Admittedly, Finn kinda disappears in the final fight, but there are just too many absurd parts to leave him in (no horses on spaceships in this cut!) Only once does he ask Rey about a boyfriend, from then on he keeps friendship motivations. This means he does not ever make and successful attacks with the lightsaber as well. Poe’s character arc is nowhere near as complex as Kylo, but pretty much laid out for us.She does not hit a stormtrooper with her first shot, and she less powered along the way as much as possible. Kylo’s arc is pretty well fleshed out already, the most cohesive character arc of the ST, imo.Kylo and Rey were of course most important. My goal was to streamline the storylines of the main characters through all three movies, as if the end was planned from the beginning.
