Y’all can relax about that whole Rey and Kylo “I need someone to show me my place in all this” and holding-out-hand thing from the trailer because they’re two completely different scenes (not that it matters if it were one scene, because Rey could pull a Luke-and-Vader-on-Bespin sort of thing)
When Rey says, “I need someone to show me my place in all this,” she is still in the outfit she went to find Luke in. You can tell by her high collar and the thickness of the material:
The light source is static as well, constant, even, likely a lamp of some sort, and the set of her shoulders and neck seems to indicate she’s sitting down. She’s most likely saying this line in Luke’s hut, explaining why she went to find him.
In contrast, that shot of Kylo holding out his hand has a mobile, flickering light source somewhere off to his left, and while that seems to match up to Rey’s right, the light is nowhere near steady, and all the bits of flaming debris falling down behind him would have caused the lighting to change around Rey, if she was really there.
And you can see Kylo meeting eyes with someone standing opposite him, while Rey’s sitting down.
So I’m all for that idea that Kylo’s holding out his hand to Leia. Even if it were Rey, it wouldn’t be immediately after she said that line. Sneaky, Lucasfilm.
Hello everyone, now seems like a good time to finally tell
you all about Pillowfort.io, a blogging platform that I (juliabaritz) and
vaguestblogging
have been working on for a while. Basically, we wanted to start a new blogging
platform that takes our favorite features from sites we’ve used like
Tumblr and LiveJournal, and create the best kind of blogging platform we
could think
of. Our goals for Pillowfort are to create a place where fans and
creators alike can share their work, create a community of their own,
and do so in a
positive and safe environment.
On
Pillowfort you’ll be able to run a personal blog similar to how Tumblr
blogs operate, but also create communities similar to the ones that
LiveJournal features, so that you can easily share content with people who share your tastes and interests. We’re also
working on
privacy features like blocking users, the ability to make posts
rebloggable or un-rebloggable, and creating privacy lists so that your
posts will only be visible to certain users. In the next few
weeks, we’ll have more detailed posts about what Pillowfort is
going to look like and what features we’ll be including, but above are a
couple screenshots from the current state of the site so you can see
what we’re going for.
We want to get the word out, so share this
post if you would be interested in using a site like this so we can get
an idea of how many people are interested! This site would also be a very large undertaking for us to attempt to finish ourselves, so we would love for people who would be interested in helping us with the programming to contact us and let us know that you’re interested. The app is built on Rails and currently deployed on Heroku (using Postgres for the database), so a familiarity with Rails and PSQL is greatly preferred.
Interesting.
So basically, what Dreamwidth is to LJ, you’re hoping Pillowfort will be to Tumblr?
