** This also counts as a case of giving the fans what they want; it's reminiscent of a scene from the WebAnimation/HowItShouldHaveEnded for ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'' in which General Grievous subverts his LeaveHimToMe moment by saying "Actually, I'm just kidding. Everybody shoot this fool!" Apparently, Kylo's been reading the EvilOverlordList, specifically Rule 4: "Shooting is ''not'' too good for my enemies."
** Also the WebAnimation/HowItShouldHaveEnded for ''Film/TheForceAwakens'' had Kylo Ren finding Luke, only to be curb-stomped by his Jedi Master powers. This movie makes it clear that he'd have just [[ItsTheOnlyWayToBeSure wiped out the island from orbit.]]

** Finally, Luke comes out, which distracts Rey enough to break the link, and asks "What happened there?" The question, however, is directed toward the big hole Rey's blaster made in the hut wall.

* An internal case of FridgeLogic: this movie remembers that Poe and Rey haven't been properly introduced yet. So when the Resistance has escaped at the end on the ''Falcon'', he walks up and introduces himself to her. Remember Poe is considered MrFanservice in-universe, so Rey blushes like a smitten teenager at the sight of him.

* It also implies that the First Order is so obsessed with their aesthetic that they're incapable of building anything that that looks non-threatining or normal. It may even be an homage to a classic PennyArcade [[https://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2011/02/09 strip]].

** There's also the simple fact the First Order actually ''has'' uniform-ironing droids. Not only is it amusing in itself that something so eminently practical is acknowledged on-screen, but it completely plays into the idea of the Empire, and the First Order in emulation, being all about VillainousFashionSense and intimidating their enemies via PuttingOnTheReich...except undercutting it by revealing the need to be prissily perfect and orderly. Their officers look impressive, but still have droids neatly pressing their uniforms.


Added DiffLines:

* It's a CallBack to what happened earlier, and shows off more of Poe's CharacterDevelopment into a leader who thinks ahead and acts on reason and logic rather than impulsiveness, but the bit after he realizes the Resistance's means of escape from the bunker can come from following the "Crystal Critters" leads to the hilarious moment where he declares, "Follow me!" Everyone turns and looks at Leia, to check whether it's a wise idea to do so considering his previous track record, and...
-->'''Leia''': What are you looking at ''me'' for? Follow him!

** Adding to the funny, when funny is how their reactions change. The first one, they're both caught off guard and treat each other as enemies -- Rey opening fire, Kylo trying to use the force on her. The second time, it's tense and dramatic. By the third, both of them just seem tired and annoyed with the whole thing. When [[spoiler:Rey starts to access the bond, she grumbles, "I'd rather not do this right now".
