There are a number of heart-stopping moments in\u00a0The Last Jedi<\/em>: Holdo\u2019s last stand, the\u00a0big Luke reveal<\/a>, Chewie\u2019s Porg-tastic snack. But having seen the film with a full audience three times, I can say no moment draws more audible gasps and applause than when\u00a0Adam Driver\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0Kylo Ren and\u00a0Daisy Ridley\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0Rey whirl around in brief slow-motion, stand back-to-back, and take on a room of their shared enemies together. It\u2019s the sexiest moment in a franchise that\u00a0already<\/em>\u00a0featured a young Han Solo answering Leia\u2019s earnest \u201cI love you\u201d with a smoldering \u201cI know<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Two years ago, the\u00a0Star Wars<\/em>\u00a0fans of Tumblr eagerly latched on to the\u00a0Force Awakens<\/em>\u00a0electricity between Kylo and Rey, launching the\u00a0#Reylo hashtag<\/a>\u00a0and inspiring an older generation of fans to caution against rooting for romance between two the leads lest they be, you know, related. But I hate to break it to you: the Tumblr fans were right. With Rey\u2019s non-Skywalker lineage\u00a0confirmed<\/a>, she and Kylo burn up the screen in the franchise\u2019s most intense relationship we can\u2019t help but root for\u2014even though we know we shouldn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s tempting, at first, to deny the existence of any sexual tones in\u00a0The Last Jedi.<\/em>\u00a0This is, after all, a franchise for kids. But sex, love, and bad or off-limits romances have always been written into the D.N.A. of\u00a0Star Wars<\/em>\u2014albeit a little less lustily. It was Leia\u2019s\u00a0beauty<\/a>, after all, that drew her brother (!), Luke, into his quest and inspired Han to stay. It was Anakin\u2019s love and possessive desire for Padm\u00e9 that caused him to fall. And who could forget the cheap thrills of Leia\u2019s metal bikini?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
