If you’ve seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens, you doubtless left the cinema with a lot to unpack.
For some of us it might take a while before we can piece together all our conclusions, but this Brazilian dad has gone all out with a theory that could blow the whole film universe to smithereens.
Needless to say, spoilers follow.
Blogger Leticia Piroutek shared what she described as “the coolest f**king theory on the reason Kylo Ren turned to the Dark Side,” courtesy of her old man.
Okay, are you ready?
‘OK SO WE GOT OUT OF OUR SECOND THE FORCE AWAKENS SHOWING AND MY DAD WAS DRIVING US HOME AND OUT OF NOWHERE HE WAS LIKE: …………………oh my god. WHAT IF KYLO REN CHOSE TO GO TO THE DARK SIDE TO HELP OUT THE LIGHT SIDE!
‘AND I WAS LIKE WHAT! SO HE WAS LIKE HEAR ME OUT WHAT IF HE WENT TO THE DARK SIDE JUST SO HE COULD KILL SNOKE!!!!
‘AND THATS WHY HE’S SO CONFLICTED, AND THATS WHY HE FEELS THE TEMPTATION OF THE LIGHT SIDE STRONGER THAN THE DARK!!!!! THATS WHY HE TALKS TO VADER’S HELMET, BECAUSE HE IS GONNA FINISH WHAT ANAKIN, THE CHOSEN ONE, STARTED!!!’
There’s a whole lot more, including some details about the role of Rey, over on Leticia’s Tumblr. It certainly paints the film in a new light.
