Will Kylo get his "revenge" on Rey?

We shall see. We shall see.

 

It may be classic storytelling but it's also predictable storytelling. No one has to tell it the same way it would get quite boring...and predictable. I could name many movies that does not use the same old structure and works just fine.

Without seeing the rest of the episodes how do you know she doesn't have setbacks? Just because it isn't going the predictable boring way doesn't mean it isn't going to be interesting. Rian has stated already long ago he threw everything at these characters and that includes Rey. I'm sure she will get run through the ringer and get her a$$ kicked whether by Kylo or Snoke who knows.

Funny but Luke beats the villains in the first movie too. Out flies and out forces Vader to blow up the death star. Vader was the best pilot, yet gets beat by his son.

 

Rey will be facing challenges in TLJ. They just may not be by a defeat to Kylo. Luke’s current state will likely challenge Rey. Snoke seems to be challenging Rey. Kylo not by defeating her, but by offering her information may cause a challenge for Rey. Rey has a very limited worldview due to her isolation on Jakku. That is also bound to be challenged as well.

 

Rey will tell Kylo he must be stopped, and Kylo will say this.

 

I'll guess it will kinda be like in ESB where Rey is going to lose the fight, but learn from it and defeat kylo in EP9.

 

I think Rey may turn. Watch the trailer again. That arm that is picking up Ren's saber is a little "slim". Rey is now a Knight of Ren!

And Kylo is not reaching out 2 Rey, he's back with!!!!

Dun, dun dun!

 

Revenge doesn't have to come in the form of defeating her in battle, that's certainly one way... but not the only way.

Anything Kylo does that impacts The Resistance in a negative way, any harm done to people she knows, that can all classify as revenge. It may not be affecting Rey physically, but psychologically it can cause a great deal of pain.

Even Rey turning to the dark side, if Kylo can get Rey to bend to him, if he can manipulate her and her thoughts and morals, that may be the sweetest revenge of all.

Plus, is Kylo more upset that he lost the physical battle with Rey? Or is he more upset that twice, while interrogating her and during the final battle on Starkiller Base she bested him mentally and psychologically. Showing that even though untrained (presumably), Rey is at least equal possibly better when it comes to harnessing the Force.

It's difficult. Kylo is said to be ashamed and embarrassed so revenge seems obvious, but on the other hand... that's just it, revenge is so obvious. Naturally, almost automatically it's what we think the character wants and where the story is destined to go. Even with the "official tidbits", I'm not sure how much stock you can put in them because all they're doing is pointing out the obvious. And we've been constantly... and I mean constantly reminded by the actors/actresses that this story is anything but obvious.

But I'll stop with the speculation and fake deep philosophy and answer your question straightforward. Yes, Kylo does get some form of revenge on Rey. No prediction for how though.

 

I considered all of that when making my post and almost ended up deleting it because I figured it would render everything I said moot, but then I realized that even though Kylo has already done damage to those close to Rey, the motive behind it wasn't to get revenge on her. You're right, I think he is 100% focused on revenge, at least at the start of the movie. But I'd still argue that doesn't mean it has to come in the form of defeating Rey in a battle. She has a sense of responsibility now, she's right in the thick of things, not just a girl along for a ride with the intentions of going back to Jakku when it's over. Because of that responsibility, I think she'll feel personal guilt for whatever Kylo does.

It's not a perfect analogy but I'd liken it to Luke knowing Vader is just using Han and Leia as bait to get Luke to come to him.

 

Kylo may fight Rey.. and will probably beat her, but it won't be revenge.

he isn't after revenge in my opinion, and i don't think he felt 'beaten' on Starkiller at the end of TFA.

He will want to find her... he wants to talk to her again.. he is fascinated by her. she confuses him.. he respects her in a way that he doesn't understand yet.

 

to feel beaten, he would have had to have been trying to beat Rey.. and he was certainly not trying to do that.

to use a car racing term... Kylo was a 'box of bits' at the end of TFA.

between his personal fascination in Rey, the turmoil going on between his ears because of killing his father.. and Snoke's request for Rey to be brought before him (not killed) - he was most certainly not trying to beat her.

What Rey did was impressive.. but it wasn't a fight. pretty sure we'll see what that kid is truly capable of in December.

 

i don't think the supposed misdirect in the trailer is a misdirect, he's gonna take her to snoke.
