Crimson Dawn and the rest of the five Syndicates have committed unspeakable crimes across the galaxy.

Female scoundrels, criminals, and bounty hunters in Star Wars

Do you ever think about how Enfys Nest’s costume had more intricacy, intrigue, and menace than anything in The Last Jedi?

She’s wearing this mask and heavy coat (fun fact: her design took a year to complete!), so you can’t tell who or what she is throughout the whole movie until the Reveal, and the whole time she’s menacing and relentless…all while being a sixteen-year-old girl. 

Then, after the reveal, they still do a fakeout by putting her mask on a decoy character, allowing her to jump out for another major plot twist even after she’d already done a plot twist using the same mask. There were no new elements added, no ramblings of expository dialogue, just visual cues and callbacks that utilized the costume to its full extent–and also gave a valid reason for a previously-masked character to spend multiple scenes with an exposed face.

Meanwhile, The Last Jedi has a guy in a white suit with a red flower on his lapel because…that’s all we get to know. Snoke has a gold robe to symbolize…something. Rey’s hair is down partway through the movie because…she saw a shirtless murderer?

And there’s a simple reason for this: Solo had to tell its own story quickly and effectively. It didn’t have time to waste on misleading flashbacks or sudden obsessions with parentage, or even on weird messages about Both Sides and Weapons Dealers–it had to tell you who characters were immediately and change their roles in the story in a heartbeat. Lady Proxima is a giant subterranean beast, Moloch is a heavy and menacing figure, Beckett is an unpredictable gunslinger who overlooks crucial weaknesses in his disguises, Dryden Vos is a scarred and menacing figure who will murder people one second and mingle at a party in the next, Qi’ra is Emilia Clarke, Val is sensible and protective, Therm Scissorpunch is Therm Scissorpunch, and L3 is a boxy nondescript robot who has to use her words and philosophies to express herself to the universe. 

But all of them fall short of the perfection that is Enfys Nest, the creature the galaxy sees as a menacing monster but who is actually just a young girl trying to do the right thing.

TLDR: Solo had so much heart put into it and deserves much more love. 

“Galaxy of Heroes” means I can draw any combination of SW characters interacting and it’s still canon   🙌
