Notes

Film

  • Starts out with Rey seeing her reflection in the magic Force mirror. Ends with Rey reaching out to touch someone's hands.

Podcast

  • Oblique reference to the trope of the Worthless Treasure twist.
  • The reveal was her. But then again it is a mirror, so what'd you expect.
    • The message throughout the film that Alex took from this is that you are in charge of your own destiny; in a way, you are your own parents.
    • To Riley, it's reminiscent of Luke seeing his own face in Vaders mask in the Magic Tree because it was not Vader he needed to defeat, but his own rage.
  • Where the episode would end if this was a Disney+ series.
  • If it had been someone we know in the mirror, there's no guarantee she would have any idea who they were.

If it turns out that Obi-Wan was either Ray's father or grandfather he would definitely say "hello there".

  • The science behind crystal balls or (wrong show) crystal skulls. Just a trick of light.

Meta Minute

  • 31:01 podcast episode length.

Quotes

  • 'Riley: Objects in Mirror maybe more nobody than they appear.
