>Upon noticing the scar on Ren's face is in a different location in The Last Jedi's teaser trailer, which debuted this past weekend at Star Wars Celebration, a fan asked Johnson on Twitter why it was moved, to which the director replied, "It was my decision to slightly adjust it, and that was my justification. It honestly looked goofy running straight up the bridge of his nose."
So directors of sequels are allowed to make changes now if they don't like how a character looks?
maybe it was the actor who wanted to look le epic like scarface and told the director the take the blame
Landon King
In the history of things happening none of the things that happened mattered less than this thing.
Leo Johnson
Any piece of TFA that is disregarded is a betterment to our society.
Jordan Foster
Kylo Ren is one of the greatest badass characters right now. YES I AM SERIOUS!
This matters a lot
Cooper Ortiz
>yfw they remake TFA Keep the deleted Carrie Fisher scenes of her as a commanding general (cos there was extra stuff JJ filmed of her) and then get Harrison Ford back and instead DO NOT make him wear his same old Han Solo uniform, then get Hamill back and actually film a Luke at his Academy first act with Adam Driver as a slightly younger Kylo Ren.
10/10 BEST MOVIE
Jack Gray
I actually don't see the difference. It looks like it's in the same location to me, just missing his eye.
Isaiah Nelson
It looks generic as fuck now, the original at least looked like an accident, something that would make sense. What he's got now is a generic scar down across his eye onto his cheek.
Austin Baker
...
Justin Harris
except vader could easily do upgrades or changes to the suit.
there is literally no reason for the scar to change position apart from making him less ugly because once again nu-starwars wants to play it safe.
Daniel Barnes
He looks cooler this way. TFA scar was a dork scar
Sebastian Richardson
Well, that's fucking stupid. Being disfigured doesn't have to look cool. The scar across the bridge of the nose looks fine to me and it's less generic.
Carson Jackson
The scar in the new version goes across his eye(he should literally be blind in one eye but whatever) the old one has it across his cheek to his forehead( so he isnt fucking blind)
Elijah Wilson
the fuck is a dork scar?
Gavin Green
Eyes are set in the skull so a lightsaber or whatever weapon can go across the forehead/brow and cheek without making contact with the eye.
Hunter Adams
Wouldn't a laser that melts doors not dry it up even without contact?Holding red hot metal near your eyes can make you blind, I imagine something several times hotter would be even worse.
Jack Gutierrez
IT'S A SCAR ON A DORK, you fucking dork
Noah Wood
Lightsabers don't emit heat.
Zachary Martin
They don't emit heat because otherwise Luke and Reys face would be burned up like sheevs
Jack Cooper
so a huge brutal scar looks dorkier than some small hardly noticeable scar? nice logic..
also who the fuck uses the word dork anymore?
Landon Williams
>DO NOT make him wear his same old Han Solo uniform
He wasn't wearing his old outfit you dumb millennial.
James King
anyone here /scarface/? I hate how hollywood glamorizes scars. anyone growing up with a noticeable scar on your face knows its not pretty or badass, it just makes you very insecure.

Jeremiah Bell
Do you even know who Adam Driver is? The guy is chill as fuck
Anthony Long
>WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH >childhood ruined >waaaaaaaaaaHHHHHHHHHHHH >kylo has a different scarrrrrrr >FUCK MOVIESES >FUCK DISNEY >FUCK YOU WAULT
Nolan Ramirez
It´s OK
TFA is shit, so any change is always for good.
Anthony Hall
I would have preferred if they had flipped the coin on its head with this new trilogy, showing the Republic resorting to imperial tactics to maintain control of the galaxy after the Empire's destruction left it in disarray, such as constructing their own Death Star but calling it a preventative measure or some shit. The First Order wouldn't exist, and in its place would be the same people but under the banner of the Resistance (reflecting the Rebellion).
Julian Parker
>DUDE COOL SCARS FUCKIN BRUTAL AND METAL BRO Who the fuck is even 12 anymore? grow up you little fags
Aiden Adams
I've seen pictures of a friend of a friend or some shit on Facebook that has a scar directly down his left eye and it looks pretty bad ass imo and the guy makes light of it in posts I've seen.
Isaac King
you're the one who brought up cool scars buddy.
Christopher Watson
Don't they? I thought the heat they emitted cauterized wounds instantly, hence why people don't bleed when getting limbs severed.
Plus, you can clearly see in the first scene of ep1 how the metal goes red hot in contact with the laser.
Leo Price
>all the pics on the left >busted but she still suckin
Samuel Smith
This would make more sense and be a better film but you just know that execs thought nobody would get who the baddies were unless they were just Empire Lite.
Nathaniel Moore
>making him less ugly If anything, scars would only make Adam Driver more attractive.
Asher Collins
They don't radiate much heat but things they come in contact with heat up. It is retarded yes but these are the facts as presented in the movies.
Angel Mitchell
There is heat transfer when contact is made because of thermal dynamics, but heat is not emitted from the blade. And the blade is plasma.
Elijah Allen
Sure. It's not as if Kylo's scar was shown for more than a couple seconds in TFA. The general audience won't remember.
Also Rian wants Kylo to have a smaller, more handsome scar to represent where his character is going. How are people still dense about this when he's presented as a sad, brooding prince type in both the poster and the behind the scenes pictures.
Lincoln Wood
thermodynamics* Soz, low on sleep.
Isaiah Sullivan
I have a scar going directly down my left eye and I hate it. got teased about it constantly when I was a kid. it looks dark and menacing and people are always asking me about it. as soon as I get enough bux, I'm getting plastic surgery
Jose Price
Triggered me
Joshua Howard
>So directors of sequels are allowed to make changes now if they don't like how a character looks? Yes. It has literally always been this way. New season of a show, characters have new outfits, new hair, maybe new physical features. It's not unheard of.
Honestly I barely remember him getting chopped in the face and I definitely would never have noticed the scar position if it wasn't being reposted here every 10 minutes.
Also,
>holding the JJ movies sacrosanct pls
Wyatt Richardson
Children can be cruel and torture like that during childhood can surely have long-lasting effects, so I feel you, mang.
Levi Cooper
Kind of like how a bowcaster can shoot people across a room and kill them but only draw blood to a strong force sensitive? Force, ain't gotta explain shit, etc.
Josiah Long
Well couldnt have said better myself
Adam Brooks
Isn't the blade in constant contact with the air around it?
Alexander Williams
>There is heat transfer when contact is made because of thermal dynamics, but heat is not emitted from the blade yeah I forgot the air is a vacuum
Aaron Parker
Because most people still think he's going to get more evil for some reason.
Cooper Phillips
I guess, but what are you implying? I don't know if lightsabers require oxygen, but either way, I'd guess they'd burn the air like fire burns oxygen. Just guessing. I don't think the science is canonically explained; like can they be used under water? If they can, can one evaporate a sea?
Camden Fisher
Not sure if this is still canon but Kit Fisto used his lightsaber underwater
Jeremiah White
lightsabers aren't like normal swords, they would just cut through the bone like flesh
Logan Myers
Not even a cool scar look in TLJ. With FA, at least there was a chance te scar would heal and be rad.
Jaxson Hernandez
The Clone Wars is indeed canon, so I don't really know what to make of that. But I don't really know anything about plasma as Earthling scientists understand it, much less how Star Wars "plasma" might work. Could be a new form of matter discovered that shares the name with plasma as we understand it.
It didn't go deep enough. His own blade was pushed into his face wasn't it? He pulled his face back and pushed the blade away before it went any farther.
Scar placement was a lot better at the nose bridge imo Also yeah, I know it's super duper future tech but I think it would've been good if it was still very prominent while having been healed, now it just looks like a small scratch
Easton Rivera
honestly, it does look a bit weird in TFA, but in the Last Jedi Trailer it looks too different. The guys at DICE appeared to have done a nice middle ground between the 2 and it not only looks better, but it's a less noticeable difference too.
Chase Myers
Hmmm, I () didn't even realize these were different shows with the same name minus "The." Never bothered watching the toons.
Angel Wright
Why the fuck does the new scar look less like a savage,heated lightsaber wound and more like kyle stood in a mirror and sliced himself with a razor blade? Fuck Rian is a fucking hack.
Fuck all defending this silly shit to
Nathan Williams
I agree. The new scar is a a joke. They could have move the scar more to the eye but keeping it big, not that thin shit.
Jordan Wilson
whooooooooooooooooooooo
caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaares
Adam Young
>Kit Fisto >Kit Fisto >Kit Fisto Someone greenlighted this
Landon Flores
I think only Lucas' opinion mattered at the time he was created.
Bentley Bennett
>It honestly looked goofy running straight up the bridge of his nose. But it wasn't even on his nose. Unless the dumbass thinks the spot between your eyebrows is part of your nose.
Jason Hall
>Fuck Rian is a fucking hack. Anakin's scar in Ep. III doesn't look much different, does that make Lucas a hack, too?
Also, it's fucking Star Wars. They have magic liquid that heals wounds super quickly, it makes sense in-universe for him to have a small scar.
Alexander Butler
right, no one in their right mind would watch this kike drivel!
Daniel Mitchell
>Scar just looks like he drew a pen line on his face
Fuck off, make it more fucking noticeable
Jacob Powell
Or maybe *gasp* his injury healed for the most part, thus making his scar look considerably smaller than his initial injury?
Jaxon Gomez
The new scar runs through his eyebrow, while the actual wound goes around his eye, you retard.
Jacob Garcia
So? TFA changed the location of the on switch for the blue lightsaber. No one cared about that (I didn't even see autism and "Abrams is a hack" posts about it here). Most people don't pay attention to small details like that and won't care.
Samuel Kelly
Maybe he used the force to move the scar
Xavier Cooper
Healed in a completely different part of his face?
Jordan Lee
The scar doesn't look different I'm confused the left us a wound and right us it fully healed? Am I missing something
Evan Price
You do know his head isn't facing the same direction in the comparison shots right?
Of course it "moved". Different angle.
David Gonzalez
In TFA, it went straight across his cheek and the back of his nose, narrowly missing the eye, in TLJ, it's running across it.
Gabriel Butler
wow do i ever hate it when there are continuity errors
Tyler Russell
Honestly, if they had kept the scar in the original position, the prosthetic makeup would have encroached into the actors vision and would have drove home crazy.
Brandon Wright
People have already said it, but things it comes into contact with heat up, but the blade itself doesn't emit heat. Like you could hold your hand right next to the blade and you wouldn't feel a thing.
Not saying it makes sense, but that's what they went with.
Nathan Edwards
They really missed the opportunity to have the lightsaber boil the water for a cool effect
Angel Thompson
It's going to be my headcanon that he had surgery to fix his face, then gave himself a cooler scar.
Because he's a fucking poser.
Joseph Butler
Threads like this are why you'll die alone.
Wyatt James
>Changes phone every 18 months
>MVP in the galactic empire with the resources of a thousand worlds at his disposal couldn't upgrade his life support equipment.
Jose Murphy
Sequel prequel
Nathaniel Hernandez
They have healing tech and his scar is very obviously not supposed to be an ugly bad guy scar. It's the opposite.
Jaxson Lee
I bet there's concept art of Kylo having a proper scar and it looks cool as hell. One of the few good things of TFA and Rian has to fuck it up.
Why are you so defensive?
Luke Watson
he actually couldn't, thanks to budgetary restrictions.
Dominic Wilson
They emit heat when it looks cool and is convenient and don't when it suits the story. Just like every other sci-fi or fantasy movie. Or any movie. Or book.
Levi Thompson
I know, but i'm saying it just ruins it in a sense, i'm not saying I want a chunk of his face gone all the time, but it should be extremely noticeable while looking not too horrible is what i'm saying
Daniel Anderson
You are lazy and low energy just like the new SW movies
Jason Ortiz
Is this bait?
Nicholas Rodriguez
Is this bait?
Cameron Walker
>this triggers the SW autist >not the fact that the Emperor already had a life support suit specifically made for Anakin that would serve him without any major change for the next 20 years
William Brooks
Star Wars does not use real world physics, that's why there's sound in space.
John Peterson
100% absolutely this
Elijah Martinez
What did Star Wars mean by this?
Brandon Wood
>original scarring is very similar to part of the outline of the masks commonly used in portrayals of the Phantom of the Opera
really makes you ponder about things
Jaxson Gonzalez
BIG
Jordan Moore
Why do they let hacks get a hold of things?
Josiah Hughes
Chicks are biologically attracted to scars. Just be mysterious when they ask and you have guaranteed success.
Jaxon Garcia
They obviously have the technology to fully heal the injury without leaving the scar. However Kylo is a massive edgy cunt and insisted they put in a badass scar that goes across his eye. This is now canon.
Hudson Morris
>Also Rian wants Kylo to have a smaller, more handsome scar to represent where his character is going. kill yourself queer.
Jace Flores
Especially when the story behind it is lame. For me it was just my brother being a dickhead.
