True. People often look at their own particular, immediate situation and not the larger picture. It’s sort of in our nature.

Looking forward to Episode X in which Finn is revealed as Mace Windu’s grandson.
To be fair, the white guests had to sign a “No jerking off to The View” pledge.
All I’m interested in is how it holds up when it goes crashing to the floor because they no longer do Magsafe power.
If they wanted to bring in a beloved character to interact with CGI-Leia who would also have moved forward plot subthemes, what about Broom Boy?
Correction: A previous version of this post had Pedro Pascal’s name incorrect. We regret the error.
Mandalorians help the Mandalorian
I was going to add that her prior issues seemed to be limited to surgery for a partially paralyzed vocal cord, but it seems that can have a variety of causes, some of which could involve breathing issues. So yours is a reasonable hypothesis.
When I was a kid I was told my grandparents’ dog died in his sleep. It occurred to me a decade later that of course the dog was put to sleep. I’ve been suspicious of that phrase ever since. It’s interesting how we all look at the phrasing to divine cause of death, because we’ve sadly gotten familiar with the…
In which Ferrari reminds you that fuck yes they’re an Italian company.
Well right, but they already put the kibosh on that by pushing Rose to the sidelines. But Finn and Rey had some tension throughout all three films -- he clearly had a thing for her. You don’t go running around screaming the name of any old buddy.
One question that was answered: Does Disney have a problem with inter-racial star-snogging? (Apparent answer: yes, so they got Finn a black love interest to keep him and Rey from sniffing around each other.)
I can’t imagine being Bill Cosby’s spokesperson and thinking it’s a good idea to put out a statement on any topic whatsoever that touched on plantations, cooning and Stepin Fetchit. Does he get paid by the number of response tweets?
And getting it from a new(ish) character who existed on the fringe and wasn’t part of the Alliance? Kind of odd.
Oh duh, so I guess the idea is that he landed that ship, got sucked into the quicksand and ended up dead in the tunnels, which is why they found the dagger there.
I was confused by something — Rey says the ship they end up fixing and flying out on looks familiar. It looked like the one on which we saw her parents leaving in flashback in TLJ and this movie. Was that really the ship? Did anything of consequence get revealed as a result?
It annoyed the crap out of me how Leia in this movie talks only in aphorisms. Technically her insertion into the new scenes was flawless, but the conversations were so weird. It was like she turned into Yoda with better grammar. I found it really distracting.
but man did it get like the plot was forced into the box Rian Johnson made for it.
The Emperor tempting Rey, the only living Jedi
I loved that while Kylo Ren’s smashing of his helmet made sense in his arc (frustration at his boss, decision to stop being Vader-lite) JJ Abrams made clear in the first ten minutes that he didn’t like the decision and literally pasted the thing back together again.
