To clarify
But they already had enough establishing scenes of the bar, there isn't any reason to focus on the scuminess of background characters unless it's important in some way, which in this case it isn't. They aren't doing shady deals there, they don't need to spend screen time establishing atmosphere that isn't important. Also if this was the only scene where rei showed some type of weakness physically then that would be stupid, because it is so minor, it would just be erratic. Also the whole esteblishment of reis character seems to focus on how adept she is in various ways but emotionally she seems stunted due as of yet unkown circumstances, if they made her seem weak in other ways it would remove focus comparatively.
I don't mean keep this literal scene in
But something that works on the same level, but better
What establishing scenes were there of the bar?
What gave it life
the guys reporting to the first order
the big fat cunt
kirk?
heh
also there where a few shots of clearly shady characters
chaos?
I'm so fuckin tired
that is literally all the focus you need, I'm not saying this movie is great and has no room for improvement. But this scene doesn't add anything that would improve it
who's that
"Also the whole esteblishment of reis character seems to focus on how adept she is in various ways but emotionally she seems stunted due as of yet unkown circumstances, if they made her seem weak in other ways it would remove focus comparatively."
But that never shows off as a serious flaw
Never is she in any danger because of those issues
She gets mental when she sees a fucking lightsaber, if that isn't weakness then what is it
But clearly we don't have context yet. They are setting up a trilogy.
the fact she was able to fight off a (fairly) trained member of the First order in lighsaber combat is BS
Yeah, she got really mental when she saw that saber in the final fight and carved Kylo like a pumpkin
that is called character development, I'm not saying this narrative is good.
Oh you mean the Mary Sue from SW7 ?
^
Rei from Evangelion right?
i don't think it is particularly good either
Finn > Rey
I keep calling her Rei because I forget the real spelling and because she's as lifeless and dull as Rei from Eva
Rey.
Ummm Eva Rei is not lifeless
I never really cared much for Rey either
She's full of life, Shinji's mum's life
heh
eva Rei is my favourite character in the series, I like kuudere characters
But yeah, either way I completely disagree, Chaos
I'm still waiting for Rogue One to get a DVD release tbh, i'm not watching some cam quality shit
Rei doesn't count as a Kuudere
That's not character development, that's just a fucking asspull to progress the story
A change in the characters temperament is by definition character development
She saw the saber twice, when she opened the box and had the odd flashbacks and when she had to fight Kylo cause Saber got slashed
