Ah, Carrie’s brother is so moved in this interview, is touching.
I’d prefer if they re-cast, tbh, and leave the story as it should be/was planned, because THIS part - that Leia was going to get some big ending, knock-off, that her act in two first films was basically a one big retardation, and so were her relations with her son and their confrontation - was actually done well aka obviously and now we wouldn’t get structural climax and this pains me. But I understand it’d be hard for the family, perhaps, and her role in US popculture&society/audience, which, for what I see, was very big, would make it hard, too.
Still. And I’m not even crazy about Jedi!Leia, but it’d be at least culmination the structure demands! (and if she kicked Kylo’s ass back to light side, I’d be very happy)
I think what he says more or less seals what we all knew, that is, that’s she going to die but probably appear and talk to us a lot as a ghost, of course smiling over our new heros/the audience, giving this closure to the family he talks about (and to above mentioned US audience). Which is very much eh and not good, imho, in-world, composition-wise, for the OT sense etc., but I already complained about it enough before, why repeat.
But hey, perhaps not, perhaps it’s all smoke and mirrors, and he means “smiling to me like she was alive” or something. ;))
I wonder why they can’t use shots from TLJ, though, it’s hard to believe there was no not-used material - but perhaps it was explained at some point and i just missed it.
Aaand I hope they’ll release/tell us more about what was supposed to be, so I could replace the actual film aka as everything points us to, total disaster, with the proposed version in my mind.
FIcs-wise - yaaaaay, all, my fics with very, very strong in the Force Leia kicking Hux’ and Kylo’s asses. even if in shippy way, the first one especially… :DD felt validated, now! And also, yes, thank you, Todd, for this “OBI-WAN WAS AT HIS PRIME AT THIS AGE”. THANK YOU, I feel validated that someone else noticed, I felt like I was in alternate world for the last years. THANK YOU.
It’s a touching interview, either way.
Of course my Polish soul now mostly wonders which monument and for whom specifically about Polish army was in the background of one of her photos. :D (at the end! there’s “Polish army” and September 1939 visible! :DD)
