The exchange will be open for treats to be submitted up until gifts are
revealed on February 23rd. This is a great way to join a supportive fandom writing community and give something to another writer!
An enormous thank you to this group who submitted art for the artbook!
This is the second half of our celebratory release for Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Submissions were closed on November 15, 2017, so all of the work in the artbook is spoiler-free.
Light & Darkness was meant to compare and contrast various interpretations of two large themes. On the left is the light side, and on the right is the dark.
The PDF is fully hyperlinked for everyone’s convenience with all of the artists’ blogs. The artists in the artbook are:
For this project, artists can post their individual work on their own. The Reylo Anthology will be reblogging them as they are posted. Please keep an eye out for their amazing pieces!
Conflict exists between Rey and Kylo Ren as in any classic light vs.
dark dynamic. But there is much more to their interactions than
simple black and white constructs.
They err into the grey together.
The phrase, “two sides of the same coin,” fits them well. They are very similar in some regards, but where they differ is decisively polarizing in
how they’ve chosen to see life and deal with living.
Kylo is
tempted by the light. He is inherently good as he was raised with love,
but the dark offers him the strength he so desperately wants.
Rey
is tempted by the dark. She’s lived a lonely life and was confronted by the urge to kill in the movie’s final battle, but she ultimately wants to remain virtuous in light.
Kylo has shown his favor for Rey. He is said to be “unexpectedly gentle” with her and no one else.
Rey has seen Kylo as a nightmare. But she retains the knowledge that beneath the cold metal he wears, he’s also afraid.
When they first met, Kylo Ren would’ve likely had to kill Rey if he decided against taking her with him from the forest of Takodana since she had seen the map to Skywalker and sided with The Resistance. But he chose to take
her with him and called off the search for the missing BB unit, even
when he knew the droid with the source information couldn’t have been far.
While
she was captured by him, he also kept her close and let no one else
make attempts at “extracting information” from her [which seemed to be
routine as shown earlier in the film].
His decisions were questionable, but
remembering how he reacted each time “a girl” was mentioned to him by
an officer or stormtrooper, we could glean that Rey holds a part in a
narrative that is known and important to him.
If that were not the case,
on Starkiller Base with her as his “guest,” he could’ve been
intimidating, faceless, and
immediate as he was with Poe Dameron and “take whatever” he wanted from
her as he had threatened, as he had said he NEEDED to do, but he
didn’t… and he went on to do just the opposite.
When Rey voiced her obvious aversion to how he was presented, he disarmed himself of what could’ve been an invaluable tool
of fear. He took off his mask to quell her anxieties of being “hunted by
a creature,” and made himself human to her.
And instead of going
right for the information that was so important [again, as he did with
Poe], he opted to sift through her memories, looking to draw what he needed out of her instead of seizing it all at once, and in the process he even began to slip into distraction while in her thoughts.
In the novel, his carefulness with her is even more apparent.
He communicated that he’d prefer to avoid probing her mind as it gave him “no pleasure.”
He reassured her that he would do what he could to make the process less difficult for her, “I will go as easily as possible.”
And [this part was included in the movie] when she became most resistant and unsettled,
he told her not to be afraid, “I feel it too.”
Although
dialogue was cut in the theatrical release for a more subtle approach
[in regard to the sudden shift in his portrayal], his strange accommodations
for Rey WAS intentional with context preserved in the novel
as proof, and I’m pleased that the majority of the general audience
grasped onto that without further exposition.
As for Rey in the interrogation scene…
His hand pulled sharply away from her cheek as if her skin had suddenly
turned white-hot. Confused, rattled, he stumbled back from her. Her gaze
followed him. Her eyes were the same, but something else had
changed—something behind them, in her stare and in her posture. – TFA Novel
When Rey turned the tables on Kylo by intruding into his mind, that was when I knew they were crafted to be equals, that she
was never meant to be pitied or coddled by fans, and she was NOT to be
treated like glass that Kylo Ren could potentially dirty or break with the slightest of touches.
Rey
wound-up shaking him more than he had intended to have happen to
either one of them, defying his attempts to see her as a simple
scavenger while solidifying his desire to know her, truly.
I was never more excited to see two characters interact in this movie than I was at that moment because I
knew Rey would challenge his beliefs, his ideologies, and each future encounter they shared would be filled with significance – they would be compelling.
The next scene of importance is in
their closing confrontation; for Kylo Ren, this starts just after he
inadvertently betrayed himself on the bridge with his father:
Stunned by his own action, Kylo Ren fell to his knees. Following through
on the act ought to have made him stronger, a part of him believed. Instead he found himself weakened. – TFA Novel
He’s
done terrible things to find solace in
darkness. In order to not feel as if he was being “torn apart,” he sought to rid
himself of all good so that he could relinquish his heart to cold
cruelty. But that backfired on him when he went to sever one of his
strongest ties to his former self.
We can’t deny that he’s
found the will to kill before, and he is sided with The First Order –
but as Leia said, “there’s still light in him.”
And in this movie, the light inside of him is conveyed most effectively through his connection with Rey.
Bearing
in mind all the bad that he’s done, he hasn’t shown a willingness to
make a serious
attempt on her life, and that may sound like a small point to make in
comparison to the war that’s once again being waged in the galaxy, but it is there, and it is instrumental to the Jedi.
Ren held his lightsaber, poised to strike. “I could kill you right now. But there is another way.”
“You need a teacher.” He was beseeching and insistent all at once. “I can show you the ways of the Force!” – TFA Novel
Kylo Ren wants to be the one Rey chooses to turn
to, he desires to have a role in her development. He could’ve struck her
down on Starkiller Base, but he kept giving her ground to the point
that he fell, and I
was most intrigued by this heavily-hinted-at-but-still-mysterious part
to his character as it all boiled down to him having “compassion” for
her, just as Snoke accused him of.
Compassion, meaning his
interest in her runs deeper than wanting
an apprentice who is strong with the force. For reasons we won’t know
until the next movie, he cares about Rey, and that’s something
he should not feel as that makes her one of his
biggest weaknesses.
In that regard, she will become his strongest “pull to the light.”
Rey
is, of course, at odds with him. She’s unsure of what to make of him even as he seems to know more about her than she does herself. But
she
would never give into his pleas to let him teach her because she knows
for certain that his reasoning, as well as the dark side, is corrupt.
True, she
doesn’t understand why he does
the things that he does or how he’s gotten certain thoughts into his
head. Impulsively, she even wants to see him as a monster without explanation. But she knows that there are people waiting for
him and that he
IS grappling with the effort to personify his warped image of Darth
Vader. He’s not completely lost, he’s actually afraid, and that’s a
state of mind she can empathize with.
So compassion may yet flow both ways for these two.
Compassion | noun | com·pas·sion | kəm-ˈpa-shən
Sympathetic consciousness of others’ distress together with a desire to alleviate it.
“Compassion,
which I would define as unconditional love, is essential to a Jedi’s
life. So, you might say that we are encouraged to love.” – Kylo’s one and only idol, Anakin.
Rey
and Kylo Ren symbolize the balance of light and dark in the force.
Both have seen inside
the other, they seem to have an intertwined past that we’re not yet
privy to, and eventually, they’ll likely have an understanding of each
other that no one else could fully share in.
I do subscribe to the Kenobi/no relation/Jedi Academy theories, but
even if they turn out to be cousins in the unfolding story’s canon, my
views in this analysis would still stand. They will remain my favorite connection in
this new
trilogy.
I
ship Rey and Kylo Ren because their potential to personify facets of the force and give meaning
to the heaviest themes in the Star Wars universe would be the most
compelling and emotionally charged direction I could imagine this new
story taking. The message their decided fates could send, whatever
those might be, would resonate most thematically.
Coming into a fandom early and watching it become an angry clusterfuck
Being in a dormant fandom that suddenly comes alive again after a new book/movie
Don’t forget about those who come in the midst of a fandom war.
Accuracy at its best
Being in a fandom and not even knowing there’s a war going on…
all of this shit…lol
When You’re Not In The Fandom But You’re Nosy AF
When you’re not part of the fandom that shit happened to but you get involved because they didn’t deserve to be done that way *cough Rothenburg is the dude in the chair*
I’m a combination of the last two
When you’re not in a fandom but some people you’re following are and so you watch the drama unfold from a distance
Ohhhhhhhh. This intrigues me VERY much. What if the reason she goes back to Jakku is because she finds out that Luke killed her parents? Then Kylo shows up. Again… I would fall of the floor.
@reylorobyn2011, as for Rey getting back to Jakku, that’s based on series of items to state:
(1) Jakku was the last battle between Empire and Repubilc/Rebellion. It was a launching point into the unknown regions. There is a Sith Observatory on Jakku with some artifacts dating back to POSSIBLY the Old Sith Empire (Bastila Shan/Revan alert). This is mentioned in some detail in the “Aftermath Novel” series by Chuck Wendig.
(2) Why everything back to Jakku? There’s something hiding over there and it’s just not Rey getting back to find her parents.
@reylorobyn2011, @thesovereignempress, Also, bear in mind…at the end of the Aftermath Novels, Admiral Rae Sloan went on a ship to the Unknown Regions to find the “Eclipse.” The Eclipses is a very large black-ish Star Destroyer. It’s speculated that Snoke is hiding in that Eclipse ship.
So, we might go into the Unknown Regions for more stuff going on over there. So, go to Jakku, then launch into the Unknown Regions.
Also, in the Thrawn Novel (canon), Thrawn trained his people (the Chiss) in the art of war for something dark and full terrors going in the Unknown Regions.
Not sure if this unknown threat Snoke or something…something…more sinister waiting to be awakened.
Very interesting!!!
indeed
And guys, don’t forget this bit of information pulled from the books:
Since watching thevideo on Visual Story Tellingby the lovely ladies @starwarsconnection I recommend you watch it. It will open your eyes! I rewatched TFA to see if there was anything else I could spot. This is a long post mainly because I like using visuals so sorry, not sorry. Anyway, with out further ado lets look at the dialogue and the visual storytelling in TFA with regards to only Kylo Ren.
Note: I may miss some and this just my interpretation. And most were covered in the Starwars connection video- but wanted to go over every line of dialogue and visuals in extra detail.
So first up is the scene in which poor Mitaka has the pleasure of delivering the news that the droid escaped.
Mitaka: The two were accompanied by a girl.
Kylo: What girl!
Oh, the line we all love! But more importantly what happens when he says it. The back panel flashes/sparks to blue (the color associated with the light side of the Force) By itself it’s telling but then the scene cuts to Rey trying to fix the Falcon and the very next line is.
Rey: It’s the motivator. Grab me a Harris wrench – check in there!
Finn: How bad is it?!
Rey: If we wanna live, not good!
Now, this is an extremely good use of dialogue and visual storytelling. Not to mention very very clever on JJ’s part by putting Harris wrench in there.
What girl? Sparks blue- the girl (Rey) is the light aka the motivator. Grab me the Harris wrench (lol JJ!) Harrison Ford = Harris wrench. We all know Han goes to save Ben to bring him back to the light so I find it funny/clever Rey needs the Harris wrench to fix the current issue with the Falcon. Then when Finn says how bad is it- Rey replies if we want to live not good. Kylo Ren is visibly shaken in the previous scene violently pulling poor Mitaka into a choke hold. If Rey the light can’t get the Falcon (right now a metaphor for Kylo) fixed with the Harris wrench aka Han then it’s not good if they want to live.
One more note on this before I move on. It is important to understand that JJ could have used any combination of words or parts for the Falcon but he chose to use motivator and Harris wrench. If you think this is coincidence I hate to burst that bubble. JJ Abrams is the master at hiding easter eggs and these tidbits of dialogue are exactly that easter eggs. You don’t notice them at first and they don’t mean anything by themselves, but once you get the full picture and you know what happens next everything comes into focus.
I’m putting the rest under this line so if you want to keep reading please do
Next is the bonding tape– I know everyone was waiting for this one but it may have a double meaning.
Rey: I’ll drop you two at Ponemah Terminal. I need the bonding tape, hurry!
Finn: What about you?
Rey: I gotta get back to Jakku!
Finn:BACK TO JAK–?! Why does everyone always wanna go back to Jakku?!!
Rey: No, that one! No. No. The one I’m pointing to! No. NO. NO. If we don’t patch it up, the propulsion tank will overflow and flood the ship with poisonous gas!
If we keep on the Falcon’s mechanical issues are a metaphor for Kylo Ren we can see that there is possible foreshadowing for a bond to form between Kylo Ren and Rey. This could come in the form of a Force bond (when they enter each other’s minds later) but I think that it will come in the form of friendship in TLJ. The other possible meaning is that it actually referring to Rey and Finn (hence my comment about a double meaning.) BUT then we have this dialogue.
Finn: Rey. You’re a pilot – you can fly anywhere! Why go back?! You got a family? You got a boyfriend?Cute boyfriend?
The alarms stop (Rey has fixed the Falcon).
Rey: None of your business that’s why.
All the ship power goes out.
Finn asks about the family and boyfriend– suddenly the ship is fixed. Then when Rey tells him it’s none of his business everything shuts off.
Wow- Rey just shut Finn down hence the visual of the Falcon’s power shutting down. But it is interesting that the second a boyfriend is mentioned the ship is fixed. Again assuming the Falcon is a metaphor for Kylo this is telling for his role in Rey’s life. If it is meant for Finn which I think that it is also- it shows that the two are just friends. I think that it is meant for both Kylo and Finn in that the boyfriend relates to Kylo and the shut down relates to Finn. Now I’m not hating on Fi/nRey but this is just my interpretation of the dialogue and visuals. I’d love to have Fi/nRey but this is just the feel I get from what I saw. I also just realized this could also apply to Rey– everything is fixed at the mention of family, and potential love (the boyfriend). So now maybe a triple meaning how about that. But my main focus is only on Kylo… so moving on .
Next up we have the scene where Snoke addresses Kylo and Hux about Luke Skywalker.
Snoke: There has been an awakening have you felt it?
Kylo: Yes
Snoke: If Skywalker returns the New Jedi will rise.
Snoke’s hand flexes as the same time the angle of the shot shows his hand over Kylo’s head while saying the word Skywalker. This could be foreshadowing of Ben Solo’s return as some sort of new type of Jedi.
Then we have Snoke addressing Kylo again
Snoke: There’s something more the droid we seek is aboard the Millennium Falcon. In the hands of your father.
Kylo: He means nothing to me.
Snoke: Even you Master of the Knights of Ren have never faced such a test.
Kylo: By the grace of your training I will not be seduced.
Snoke: We shall see.
The very next shot is of Rey and Han having issues with the Falcon. But the line of dialogue is…
Han: Electrical overload
Rey: I can fix that.
Han: The coolant is leaking
Rey: Try transferring auxiliary power into secondary tank
Han: If this Hyperdrive blows there going to be pieces of us in three different systems.
Rey: (fixes problem alarms stop)
Han: what did you do?
Rey: I by passed the compressor
In this scene, we should take the Falcon’s issues as a metaphor for Kylo Ren’s mental state. He is having an electrical overload aka emotion crisis, he’s losing his cool.
Rey’s next line about transferring the auxiliary power into the secondary tank is foreshadowing. Meaning that Kylo’s power will be shifted int Ben Solo (the secondary tank.)
Han’s line about the hyperdrive is also interesting. In the context that Kylo goes off the rails and Ben Solo does not come back – we will have complete and other destruction.
Finally, Rey fixes the problem, she bypassed the compressor. The compressor is a metaphor for Snoke. This is also foreshadowing of what’s to come. Rey will get around Snoke and fix the problem which is Ben Solo being held hostage under the influence of Snoke himself.
Now for the grand finally of it all… The destruction of Starkiller base. Again we are going to use Starkiller base as a metaphor for Kylo Ren. This is the grand daddy, the whole enchilada of foreshadowing/visual story telling/ metaphors.
Kylo Ren =Starkiller base
The oscillator = Kylo Ren’s struggle between the light and the dark
The Resistance must destroy a thermal oscillator in order to destabilize the planet. JJ could have used a slew of different mechanical terminology but he chose oscillator.
The definition for oscillating is…
1.to swing or move to and fro, as a pendulum does.
2.to vary or vacillate between differing beliefs, opinions, conditions, etc.: He oscillates regularly between elation and despair.
Throughout the movie, Kylo struggles with the pull to the light. He teeters back and forth between the two. Note the brutality he shows Poe in the interrogation room vs how he treats Rey. It is noted in the novelizations that he doesn’t want to enter her mind by force even goes as far as saying that it gives him no pleasure. But if you only strictly want to base this on the movie we have the line about compassion. It was filmed but cut from the movie (probably because it is too telling right now) He has compassion for Rey even though he denies it. So Kylo Ren oscillates between the dark side and the light.
Edit: @force-bond pointed out something that I missed when I originally posted this meta so I thought I would point it out now since this has gotten a lot of positive attention.
Prior to the assault on Starkiller base, the Resistance meet in their command center and discuss the weapon.
Finn: It uses the power of thesun. As the weapon is charged, the sun is drained until it disappears.
ADMIRAL STATURA- If we can destroy that oscillator, it might destabilize the core and cripple the weapon.
Poe: We’ll go in there and we’ll hit that oscillator with everything we got.
ADMIRAL ACKBAR: They have defensive shields that our ships cannot penetrate
HAN: We disable the shields. Kid, you worked there, what do you got?
FINN: I can do it.
HAN I like this guy.
Finn: I can disable the shields. But I have to be there, on the planet–
HAN: We’ll get you there.
LEIA: Han, how?
HAN: If I told you, you wouldn’t like it.
Wow, talk about your foreshadowing!
So as the weapon is charged it drains the sun until it disappears. Snoke is using Kylo Ren as a weapon until Ben Solo (the sun/son) disappears. The line from Statura informs us that the oscillator must be destroyed in order to destabilize the core and cripple the weapon. Again, oscillate and destabilize are two important words here. Destroying the oscillation between the pull to the darkness in Ben Solo and let him be pulled to the light will destabilize Kylo Ren thus crippling him.
Then when Han says he can get Finn on the planet Leia asks him how… He responds that if he told her she wouldn’t like it… Han is going to destabilize Kylo Ren and it will cost him, his own life. It’s quite obvious Leia won’t/doesn’t like this. That is huge foreshadowing for Han’s death. However, his reasons are stated here and later on when it actually happens. He is going to stop the weapon from draining the power from thesun. He is going to stop Snoke and keep his son Ben Solo from disappearing.
Even Han repeats Finn’s line to Ben on the bridge (sort of)
Han: Snoke is using you for your power. When he gets what he wants he’ll crush you. You know it’s true.
The use of Sun and Son in this makes the ending of the movie that much more meaningful so keep that in mind for the very last part of this meta.
In the beginning of the assault on Starkiller base, we have Poe giving us two very telling lines.
Poe: We’ll go in and hit it (oscillator) with everything we got.
Poe: As long as there is light we still have a chance.
We all know Star Wars is about hope and optimism. Poe gives us that and also eludes that if the light remains in Kylo Ren there’s still a chance. (We know that the light was not all lost as Starkiller base never fired upon the resistance again keep this in mind for the very last part of the meta)
But we know what happens, Kylo oscillates back to the dark side and kills Han. I have a separate post on this moment which involves Han and the Helmetclick here to read. Anyways moving on… Chewie first shoots Kylo Ren wounding him but not killing him. AND Chewie blows up the oscillator, BUT ALSO fails to completely destroy it.
Admiral Ackbar: The Oscillator’s been damaged but is still functional.
Kylo Ren is down but not out of this fight just yet.
We know that Kylo and Finn battle it out, while Rey is knocked out. Poor Finn loses and is out for the count when this happens
Rey and Kylo begin to battle it out.
And the very next line in is…
Niv Leck: We just lost R-1!
We just lost Finn to Kylo, he’s down for the count.
Then we have
Jess: We’re overwhelmed! What do we do?
Rey is clearly overwhelmed when the lightsaber flys into her hand and so is Kylo judging by the look on his face and the cues from the script that states …
KYLO REN TURNS TO SEE LUKE’S LIGHTSABER LAND IN THE HAND OF REY, WHO STANDS, FACING HIM, HAVING REACHED FOR IT HERSELF, BUT UTTERLY STUNNED THAT IT LANDED IN HER HAND! SHE IS SHOCKED – AND SO IS KYLO REN!
Then we have the following line as Kylo and Rey battle it out off screen.
Yolo Ziff: Black Leader, there’s a brand new hole in that oscillator. Looks like our friends got in!
There’s a brand new hole in Kylo Ren and that hole is Rey.
Poe: All teams I’m going in, pull up and cover me.
Rey has engaged Kylo Ren and Poe makes it in and blows up the oscillator. The planet begins to collapse as Kylo and Rey continue their battle. Until he gets her at the edge of the cliff. Rey turns and kicks Kylo’s ass, and a large chasm rips between the two.
As the planet crumbles a FO technician says the following line after he is told to get back to his station.
Just look. We won’t survive – even Hux has gone!
I believe and I am speculating that this is also foreshadowing. The First Order will not survive and neither will Hux in TLJ but we won’t know that to be the case until December.
Speaking of Hux he also delivers a very very important line.
Hux: The fuel cells have ruptured. The collapse of the planet has begun.
Kylo Ren has lost his fuel, he has been beaten and most likely lost his will to fight for the darkness and resist the light. Considering that he is horrified by his actions. But the bit about the collapse of the planet has begun. The darkness that is Kylo Ren is falling apart.
The very last part I will leave you with is the description of the destruction of Starkiller base.
the PLANET IMPLODES – THE SUNLIGHT IT CONTAINS BURSTS FORTH, and as we get further and further distance from what was Starkiller Base, we witness the REBIRTH OF A SUN. Light restored to a corner of the galaxy.
This is a very detailed description of something that happens in a script. If Starkiller base is a metaphor for Kylo Ren then he has been reborn back into Ben solo. The rebirth of a sun/son. It’s a pun but it also an effective use of visual storytelling. It’s a metaphor. They will not come right out and say these things but they are there.
If we look at all the clues, visuals, and dialogue, together they paint a clear picture of whats to come and what has actually happened to Kylo Ren.
Kylo Ren is dead… He died on Starkiller base. If TLJ picks up right where we left off it may be safe to assume we will see Ben Solo grieve his father (somehow) We actually may be left in the dark and not know for certain whether or not Ben Solo has returned until much later in the movie for dramatic purposes/big reveals.
And that ladies and gents are my interpretations of the metaphors/visual storytelling of TFA.
Now go watch TFA again knowing what you know and tell me you don’t hear/see it. 🙂
