reylos crying on twitter because Adam Driver explicitly confirmed that Bendemption was never originally in the plans for Kylo....this is justice for the last 8 years, actually

fantastic-nonsense

"they were just going to let the last Skywalker die as a Dark Sider???" well he wouldn't have BEEN the last Skywalker if Rian had actually followed through with the clearly foreshadowed revelation that Rey was one and let Finn be the nobody Jedi from nowhere as he was supposed to be

fantastic-nonsense

I just.

Eight years of arguing with Reylo stans about how Kylo's trajectory was to show us the long fall of someone continually choosing the Dark even as his father (who he explicitly acknowledged that he still loved!) and other people in his life repeatedly offered him the same choice Luke gave to Vader in ROTJ.

Eight years of noting that the point of Kylo, for JJ Abrams, was that you can be raised with love, support, and stability and still CHOOSE to make bad choices and continue to do so even when offered alternatives.

Eight years of pointing out that Finn and Kylo were deliberate character foils in TFA! Eight years of saying that Finn was supposed to show that goodness can come from anywhere, even a stormtrooper raised as a child soldier with no one to turn to, while Kylo was supposed to show that evil can come from anywhere, even a beloved Rebel's child with a stable childhood with lots of support figures.

Eight years of trying to get through to them that Finn and Kylo were supposed to represent the two choices Rey had as the sequel trilogy's Skywalker: to follow Finn's choices (Luke's choices) and stay in the Light, or follow Ben's choices (Anakin's choices) and surrender to the Dark.

Eight years has led to this moment of Adam Driver casually going "evolving into Ben Solo…that was never part of it" and “Rian took it into a different direction” in an interview on a random Tuesday night. I feel the vindication in this Chili's tonight and it is SWEET

watching old shows with 20+ episodes a season is a roller coaster. I’m gifted with beautiful themes and inspired through lines. I’m psychically assaulted with the most vile contrived garbage fire. This is all happening in the same 45 minutes

#it is like a religion to me #in that I have and always will cherry pick the good canon and throw out the plot holes and nonsense #which like was sometimes a matter of circumstance #you can tell when they wrote something for an actor that couldn’t come back or had to retcon some backstory due to availability reasons etc #it’s (mental rewriting) what the writers would want I can feel it #2000s tv

they just don’t make tv shows with that one obligatory 1940s detective noir filler episode anymore, and we as a society have been in decline ever since
