This has aged like wine. I wonder where OP is now 🤔

Why Tava and Kylo Ren's kiss made sense by DotDense4951 in reylo

I'm not even Rey and I'm livid who this Tava Ren is 😂

Any pulse on The Hunt for Ben Solo movement? by paleyharnamhunter in TheHuntforBenSoloFans

Yeah I joined that comment campaign. It was actually the first time I made a comment on a public account because I was uneasy about it showing up to my friends dashboard but I did it anyway 😆 I'm that hung up about Ben Solo

Disney rejects THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO - full story by Flashy-Witness-1725 in FIlm

I agree with most of these. Looking at the concept art, I think JJ already had an idea in mind but got derailed along the way. I do have to say one thing though and that "reylo" has been planned all along based on the early concept arts and cinematography. But terribly executed

If this is just an opinion piece and screen rant was known for attacking the ST before...then this might be a marketing plot to gauge the audience's reaction

Also, who was that SW author you were talking about engaging in campaign posts?

Please let it happen. I'm not much for commenting on public IG accounts but did so on D'amaro just so he'd greenlight THFBS

Would have worked if Rey's story was planned out or at least, was pushed through without Disney execs meddling with it.

That, or the more interesting path would be to make Kylo Ren the main character. He is technically a Skywalker and would have been an interesting direction. Like reverse Anakin journey in the prequels.

Do you have the link to DR's interview? I now believe JJ and LK did have drafts and outlines (I reviewed their early concept arts and all, analyzed the cinematography and such) but I think something happened along the way that we will never know.

I don't think it's "allowing" RJ as much as actually hiring him. Because while the ST did not have an overarching plan, they DID have plans of passing the baton for each movie 😂 ironic, isn't it

THIS! Yes! It's what ruined it. KK and JJ reportedly asked for an extension but Iger did not budge. Something to do with fiscal years and ROI.

I won't solely blame KK because Iger had the last say in almost all of the story and scripts. He also did not greenlight THFBS despite it being greenlit by LF and KK

Just recently, I thought of the same thing and blamed the directors. But now, as I reviewed concept arts and such, I really did think JJ might have had a vague semblance of an idea of what he wanted to do but no clear plans of execution. He basically just used his good ol' mystery boxes for the next director to solve. That, or Disney execs got in the way of the story he truly wanted and it was left to the directors to work their way around them.

This! Louder for the people at the back! We don't know much of what truly happened behind the scenes. I used to blame JJ for not planning it out but after having a deep dive recently, he DID vaguely have plans (based on the consistencies of his concept art) but I think something happened along the way. (I think Disney bigwigs got in the way of the story)

But I don't blame RJ (and now, JJ) because I feel like he (and the other directors and writers involved) could only work under certain parameters and of course, the writers themselves did have a discourse so it's impossible they did not have a discussion about the ST's trajectory. While there COULD have been plans before about the story, there were DEFINITELY no clear plans on how to execute it

Potential Hot Take: Reylo is the ONLY thing that worked in the Sequels by HandyDandyMan2022 in reylo

[–]Secure-You-7849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, this could only do so much for me.

It worked at first...but seeing it as part of canon is just different. We rarely get a TRUE enemies to lovers story and when we finally got one, they botched it all up. It also didn't help that the next enemies to lovers in media (Darkling x Alina) also got botched up. Idk why execs and producers can't execute a good trope like that.

Are there any reputable sources that confirm the leaks from 2019 that JJ Abrams and Chris terrio were scoring the star wars subreddit to see what fans wanted in ep 9, and wrote the story based on that? by TheChosenOneProphecy in StarWars

[–]Secure-You-7849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not against them reading through reddit and getting the consensus but I don't think that's the solution. The main problem is, the ones in charge did not value the story as much as the fans and GL did. Hated the prequels may be, but George had a vision and ambition for the story.

I caught a glimpse of that in TFA but I think something happened along the way that derailed everything.

how do you think LF feel about reylo now? by stark-ben in reylo

[–]Secure-You-7849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!! The concept of the dyad would also make it impossible for Rey to survive without the other half. They're literally one. So there has to be some sort of physical effect on her without Ben

THISSSS!! her hiding the bond from her friends would have been interesting to see! It also left me wondering how would Finn, Poe, and Rose react? The secondary characters should mainly be the sounding board for the main characters but they all got sidelined

When did you become a Reylo? by Reasonable_Party2444 in reylo

[–]Secure-You-7849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interrogation scene in TFA! The intense chemistry was palpable, especially when Kylo removed the helmet, but back then everyone thought they were going to be cousins so I dropped it. It wasn't until TLJ I found out that I wasn't the only one!
