Well, to be fair, I defended TFA for two years. I'm a slow learner. That was brave, boy, but foolish. I would have thought you’d have learned your lesson! Here, I'm going to try this again. Ahem.. Are you from Ireland? Because my penis is Dublin!

Forgive me for being "that guy" but I have to get this off my chest. What is up with the costume for Vice Admiral Holdo. I repeat, VICE ADMIRAL. Why is she dressed like this: Why couldn't they give her something that vaguely resembled a military uniform? Or made her character a political figure instead? Did this bug anyone else or am I just being pedantic. Hmm. Now that you've mentioned it, before I saw TLJ, I kinda assumed Holdo would be on Canto Bite. She fits right in...

Okay, read an article in a friend's magazine where they were interviewing behind the scenes people who, now that the film's out, can talk. Seems Holdo's costume was meant to be a bit of an homage to her homeworld, similarly to how Leia is wearing the 'mourning braid' that is traditional for widows to wear on Alderaan. Her bracelets are a constellation above her homeworld, the hair jewels are to represent something else from her home, and her gown is supposed to be her intentionally being more like Leia- more regal and less military in appearance since she supposedly tries hard to be like Leia.
Granted, I think we should get that rather than having to read interviews, visual guides, and tie-in novels to get this stuff. The same article also noted Poe is wearing his mother's wedding ring on a chain around his neck (Adding, "held on till he meets the right person to give it to", so yet another character carrying a relic of their history/the past) and it was a leftover nut off a ship during the Rebellion vs. Empire war and that Mr.Dameron Sr. had cleaned it up and given it to Shara to wear as her wedding band. Part of me would have preferred to hear Poe tell us this, or Leia comment on it, rather than reading additional material to learn this stuff. Though I'd still buy the additional stuff and read it call, cause I'm a nerd who loves those details about costuming, props, make up, prosthetic, and music.
