Message: <blockquote data-quote="Umbran" data-source="post: 7909806" data-attributes="member: 177">This.  Good gods, people, sitting silent on your plans and asking for unwavering, unquestioning loyalty is stupid for a military leader!  Poe was one of her leading subordinates.  There is no reason why she should not have made him aware of the plan.Also agreed.  Honestly, why aren't hyperspace missiles a thing?  Why was this a thing about hyperdrive, and not just a ramming speed! thing?I disagree that this is a problem.  Giving it away is the point!  Giving the audience a way to figure it out just before the big reveal makes the audience feel cool!I got it based on his beard color, but that's just the three-clue-rule in action.Well, that gets answered, eventually.  I don't think he needed an explanation - We went decades without an explanation of the Emperor, and we were fine with that.  Snoke's a guy strong in the Dark Side.  Done.  So I don't care exactly where they put it.For Rise of Skywalker...Putting together a huge fleet... where each ship is equivalent to the Death Star, but faster! - and nobody has noticed?  Doesn't make a lot of sense.  I can imagine ways this can be handled*, but it wasn't handled at all.I think the Ben/Rey kiss at the end was not a great choice.*F'rinstance - imagine Starkiller Base was really a red herring.  The fleet was made with resources diverted from that project. You probably need a couple lines in TFA, and then a link in Rise, and you're done.</blockquote>
