Why did it have to involve her flying around in the middle of a fight? It was distracting and silly, as if Rian decided viewers couldn’t handle a simple conversation, so he spiced the moment up with useless “action.” Oh God, he’s not gonna drink it is he? Why? And why so sloppy it’s all over his beard?! Why is that creature looking at Rey as this happens?
