Deleted scene and all, but Qui-Gon takes Anakin to get it removed, and in the same scene are found by one of Darth Mauls little Probe Droids. That's also the reason for that awkward cut to them running to the ship in a panic, they're supposed to be trying to flee because they know the bad guys have tracked them down. As it is in the theatrical cut there's just this awkward jump from them casually leaving to them fleeing in terror toward the ship for no apparent reason.

They had a bad feeling.

1) It’s an orange light.

2) It represents “the spark, that will light the fire that will burn the First Order down” except that FN wasn’t authorized to use it.

3) Saying “red light represents evil” is legit nonsense. Red light on a puppy? Clearly an evil puppy, because of what the light tells me. (Where is the light coming from? That is, who is casting this light on the puppy?)

4) Luke Skywalker is Red Five, dressed in orange with red logos, ship painted red, shoots red lasers at the Death Star.

5) The actual point of the scene is that Rose’s “love” for FN is being performed on behalf of Poe. Rose (nearly) sacrifices herself to enact Poe’s orders, and therefore Poe is kissing FN by proxy.

6) This is because of the obvious callback to how Rose’s sister defied Leia’s orders and successfully sacrificed herself to save the fleet. Leia and Rose don’t care that the sacrifice worked and saved everyone from the “fleet-killer”. They’re upset that Rose’s sister is dead, and they attribute that death to her rejection of Leia’s love - which is specifically the love of the Rebellion leadership. Even though the sister obviously dies to protect Rose, with her golden necklace of sisterhood, Rose falsely believes that her sister was merely consumed by hatred. This is what motivates Rose to attack/kiss FN.

7) Ultimately, when Holdo says “we are the spark, that will light the fire that will burn the First Order down”, this “we” is referring to herself: “I am the spark that will light the fire.” FN is therefore not allowed to be a spark.

Okay, fine. But it's still something obvious enough to at least consider and reject for good reasons.

All this spark stuff would be fine if it continued the OT theme of every character's secret goal being to die in front of Luke, but with Rey or something. (Or better yet, Kylo).

Why the gently caress would a stable boy on Gambletopia IX know what Rose's stupid rear end decoder ring means? The Resistance has like 20 people in it and the poor kid shovels space gazelle poo poo in a manger all day and then they just loving leave him there. That's approaching "the Jedi leave Anakin's mom to live out the rest of her days in slavery" levels of hosed up.

I hope any future trilogy features force-kid discovering a holocron that is a pyramid rather than a cube and the nice man inside it wears a lot of black and has A LOT of opinions on the virtues of vengeance.

I hope the next trilogy sets up the kid as the evil leader of the space Nazis mark III, and his whole beef is being left behind by a worthless side character.

He knows the same way the other slave kid knows who Luke Skywalker is and what he did just 30minutes earlier on the salt planet.

Don't trust the skull.
To be fair, the Resistance uses the same insignia as the Rebels - and, presumably, the New Republic. So it should be fairly well known, in the same way that it wouldn’t be weird if some slave kid in Dubai could recognise the Stars and Stripes.

Whether he’d react positively to that symbol is a different question...

That's actually a rare bit of consistent worldbuilding- everyone thinks the Republic is (was?) a big, impotent joke, so of course they still haven't eradicated slavery.

Hmm, the Reddit/Bespin Bulletin spoiler provider has provided a lot more spoilers which serve to backtrack on quite a few things. All changes made through the “reshoots”. In my opinion, way more poo poo than what could actually be done in reshoots. Strikes me as just bullshit to bring it more in line with other more official stuff that has been coming out from merch. Meaning the big recent story outlines have been largely fake the whole time, just some extrapolating from real info that’s been released from trailers, merch and pictures and from some other older spoilers.

Man remember how the prequels brought up such a plot point, had characters discuss it, and had its existence be something that helped establish its setting and social context for subsequent films and underpinned character traits that would linger over multiple films?

Anyway this kid can move a broom.

This happens for so many big releases now and I don’t understand what would make someone waste that much time and try to pass it off as legit. Attention? If it was like a “here are my predictions” it’d be one thing but I heard somewhere that the internet makes you stupid.

Disney didn't like that the entire plot of the movie was leaked so they reshot the whole thing. They've done this for each equally true leak that has come out.
