oh that sounds interesting, those casino scenes and poes cringy lines in the beginning were bad imo 

P.S. could you link  or dm the script?

Alright I'll just post it here rather than PMing it to everyone. Someone will just share it anyways. I believe the script was leaked on January 26th, 2017. It's an earlier script so the movie we got was already being filmed. No idea what the motivation of the leaker was but I'm damn glad I saved a PDF of that script after watching the movie. It's amazing how this script was so much better than the final version. Seeing how many set pieces and characters were cut is crazy. The script was running a little on the long side as well. Much darker, and very serious in tone minus a few hilarious moments. Dropping the plot point of the Knights of Ren alone changes the out come of so many things. Rey suddenly feels less needed and Snoke less relevant. Far less character development for Kylo Ren, which was drastic in this script. It was technically his film in many ways.

I recommend people read the whole thing. The pay off is pretty great a the end. There's no Crait but there is are major deaths that would have left some fans salty.... oh wait.... Nothing remotely on the scale of what we had. It fit quite well in the Star Wars universe as well as leaving fans with something huge to look forward to in Episode IX. I do wonder if Luke will play a similar role in Episode IX in trying to guide Ben and teach him as a force ghost or even connect to him directly with him.

I'll admit when this script was first released I was on the fence of it and concluded it was fake due to a few parts. Then I noticed certain elements and similarities in the final film and shit that really seemed out of place for Star Wars last night. They had something fans deserved, but gave us something to make a quick buck instead while keeping a smaller budget and a strict timeline. This is very depressing.....

At around page 75 I can confirm that some of that is at least legit, I'm from Kerry and have friends who used a telescope to watch Kylo land on the Jedi temple and battle Ray/Luke there from his Tie Silencer.
