The snap does come back around but it doesn't go on forever.

Other famous snaps in motion picture history. Thanos of course. The West Side Story dance fights. Pete quotes referencing West Side Story when you're a ray you're a ray all the way. Riley is pathologically incapable of snapping her fingers.

Everyone has their own snapping technique ever has their own pen holding technique.

We get Rey's voiceover as she narrates her vision after the fact. Ray should have felt tractor panicked but she didn't has compared to how Luke felt in the magic tree? It speaks to each character's relationship with their antagonists. What would Luke have seen in The Magic Tree after he learned that Darth Vader was his father? We walked backwards into a flashback this doesn't happen a lot if ever in Star wars. It's also a misdirect because we don't know who she's talking to. This scene is highly effective filmmaking. Walking the Tightrope where on one side you have oh this is just a rehash and on the other side you have oh this is not Star Wars. This movie does the most to expand the Cinematic language that is Star Wars. When Riley saw this movie for the first time she didn't know for sure that she liked it she had to sit with it and process it so by the second time she was fully on board. Originally Riley was able to get a ticket to see it until the Saturday after it came out but randomly she was able to snag a seat at the AMC near her work she had it straight over there 5:00 p.m. on the Friday after it came out. That probably also impacted her first viewing. Similarly she saw rise of Skywalker with her best friend from high school who she saw a phantom menace with so she is an apologist for that movie. This minute ends in a great cliffhanger who did you think Ray's parents were going to turn out to be? Who do you think it was going to be and who did you hope it was going to be? Riley assumed not a Skywalker because Luke didn't know who she was. Riley was on team Ray Kenobi. Behind the scenes that apparently was in contention at least at some point. Talking about the Magic Tree and have there they're being only what you brought with you Riley brought in her own love of Obi-Wan Kenobi as a character into this viewing. Mentioned the many endings of the movie clue. Meta notes go back and find where Alex is on the record as to who he thought Ray's parents were. Retroactively he wanted her not to be related to anybody that we already knew. With rise of Skywalker we get the worst of Both Worlds because her parents are nobody but she still connected to somebody we know. Similarly Pete didn't really expect it to be anybody but if it had to be somebody he would have gone with Ray Kenobi it's nice to expand the universe as opposed to closing it down at least if she related to Obi-Wan it would be an interesting Side branch as opposed to just in the main trunk. After having seen the Clone Wars cartoon where Obi-Wan has a relationship with Duchess setine of mandalor her nephew in quotes looks like him exact blend of Satine and Obi-Wan so there was the theory that he was his secret son this adds fuel to the ray Kenobi fire. Meta notes meme of that conspiracy guy from what is it community? Who would the most ridiculous person for Ray to see in the mirror be? Pete's go-to is bo-shek. The theory that they cast a woman that looks so much like these Ridley to play jyn erso meant that Jin must be raised mother. We don't see any human hyphen alien hybrids in the movies, although in Star Wars Rebels there's Jason sindula who is Harrah's son with canaan. And he's just a human with green hair. This is mainly because Star Wars as a franchise is very chaste we don't meet characters' children unless they factor into the story somehow. Meta notes check Wookieepedia for near human and human alien hybrid. Junior ( Admiral ackbar's son) looks a little bit less calamari like in that he's smoother unless fishy maybe he is such a human alien hybrid whose mother may be holdo? It's revealed in a novels that she is pansexual. It's more biologically realistic in the sense that species on Earth can't interbreed. Meta notes look up Russian scientists did he invent the z-donk? Riley quotes a human male  probably could not… fertilize that jar full of pickled baby eggs. Alex doesn't mean he won't try. Pete anticipates within the next five Star Wars projects they will show a human alien hybrid character what alien would it be? Riley chuckles who do you think is more surprised this is where this conversation went based on this minute of this show? Do you think it's us or do you think it's the audience? Mentioned Chaka from Land of the lost. Meta notes Stars Wars minute bingo. Plug for Star Wars made on social media. Pete is back on the SWMLS on Facebook.
