Rian: They were shooting the first movie while I was writing so I was watching dailies while I was writing […] That was one of the really nice things about the timing of it is I was able to see how the actors were bringing it to life and getting to see her and getting to see Adam and what he was doing. And the other thing that was really nice–I was writing before the movie came out so I was writing just based on my reaction to it and not based on the world’s reaction to it.
Spike: Oh yeah I loved the parts with their conversations, I mean that’s kind of like the spine of the whole movie for me was their conversations with each other and their relationship and where it goes and–
Rian: Yeah.
Spike: So now do you have ideas for where the third movie could or should go or things–because it feels like their relationship is still at the sort of–the core of it.
Rian: Yeah absolutely but I don’t–JJ and Chris Terrio are writing right now, the third movie and I–it’s a similar thing […] I sat down, similar to the way I sat down with JJ at the beginning of this process and just had a talk where it’s just–but it’s just like a talk, we like had lunch and it’s just like “here’s where I thought I brought it to, here’s kind of the things I think I set up” but then it’s the baton handoff and now I turn back into an audience member and it’s kind of exciting.

At 12 mins!

This is lovely!!!!!  Thanks for sharing!!! 

I love how it's reiterated once again that what we saw in TFA wasn't in our heads, and that Rian built upon that very non-platonic aspect.  As far as that last part, Rian might as well come out and say yeah their story isn't over yet, even if he can't announce that outright.  So beautiful!

Adam knows his arc. When asked about him having any idea of what TPTB want to do with Kylo in episode 9, he said he has "a general sense about it":



He's been notified of specifics and key things in advance in order to convince him not only to join SW (when KK and JJ asked him) but also to help his performance. Daisy has also said that JJ told her about Rey's parents on one of the first days of shooting in Abu Dhabi. But agreed, Adam seems to know the most from all of the actors. I mean, Oscar Isaac had to beg JJ not to kill Poe off in TFA and I doubt John Boyega knows much more about Finn's fate.

@Kylo Rey but he did say he was very surprised with where Rian took Kylo in TLJ... to me, that says that he didn't know everything, at least, in TLJ.

@Dar-ren19

He probably knows the endgame for his character but not how he gets there if that makes sense.

@rey09

What's exactly anti about it?

Kylo IS broken, that much is shown when he takes his helmet off in front of Snoke. He was forced to kill his father and it split him to the bone. He IS bitter. Bitter at Luke, Snoke, and mostly at himself.

Besides, I think some people missed the gif they posted right below with Rey stuffing her mouth with implied "broken and bitter" cookies she likes what she's eating, and I'll...leave it at that

I agree Kylo is broken and bitter, it just gave off an anti vibe to me lol.

Also lol. Apparently the Kylo Rens at Disney ask you to leave if you bring up Rey. I wonder what the Reys will be instructed to do.

@MyOnlyHope

I am literally laughing out loud at this.  My husband and I plan to go to Disney World sometime in October.  I am 100% planning on doing the Kylo Ren meet and greet and sure enough I can tell you I am bold enough where I was planning on asking him about his ex girlfriend.     

I'll keep you up to date on how that goes.

And yes, Matt Martin has been a blessing to our fandom ever since TLJ was released!!!

@rey09

I didn't view it negatively either, I felt it was done in a tongue in cheek way, especially as it had a winking emoji next to it, along with the gif below.

special_cases wrote:Yes, I think that this was always a plan since they decided to make Jedi Killer Solo son - that Luke somehow betrayed his student. And Adam knew it. I don't think even Hamill knew.

Interesting that Rian decided to add Rashomon flashbacks last minute. I suppose he decided that he needs to show everything because people won't believe each side without them.
