The rest is sensory overload, but the depth is staggering. Photograph: Andreas Gursky, Union Rave (1995) It’s split into themes (Chicago, New York, Germany, Second Summer of Love, bass) that span the history of electronic music – so you’re practically guaranteed a snatch of your last night out. Laurent Garnier’s four-hour soundtrack for ‘Electronic’ is clever like that. I may be mooching around Kensington’s Design Museum, but fleetingly, I’m transported back to that conclusive mad one in March. ‘I Feel Love’ is blaring out of every corner of the building. And now, in the biggest mindfuck since lockdown started easing, I’m immersed in strobing light and quaking bass once more. None of us realise it yet, but Miss Summer is here to give normality a thumping send-off. It’s a beefier take on Donna Summer’s classic. One thing I do remember is ‘I Feel Love’. An archway near Cambridge Heath: I don’t know where exactly. The Mary Sue has a strict comment policy that forbids, but is not limited to, personal insults toward anyone, hate speech, and trolling.Flashback to a Saturday in early March.

Luke’s not the only one who got a stylish exit from the franchise, after all. For now, we’ll have to stick with animation, and there’s plenty more material for it where this came from. There was also a full version of Kylo and Rey’s battle, set to “Immigrant Song”, as Thor: Ragnarok reminded us that everything should be, but Disney’s snipers seem to have gotten to it pretty quickly, since all the footage in it was straight from the movie. Then, below, the battle between Luke’s Force projection and Kylo Ren is fully recreated in SNES-like pixel art by animator John Stratman, down to the little details like Luke’s lack of footprints and the blue lightsaber he chose to taunt his rage-prone nephew. Sadly, it doesn’t include the entire fight scene, but it does get up to the part where Rey and Kylo are so in sync that they move in unison while back-to-back. The above video, from Huxley Berg Studios, uses LEGO and stop motion animation to recreate the throne room scene, wherein Kylo Ren betrays Snoke, and they fight the Supreme Leader’s Praetorian Guard together.
Until the home video release arrives, we’ll have to rely on some clever animators to make that happen, and a few have answered our distress call so far. Star Wars: The Last Jedi had not one, but several climactic scenes to go with a few of its various, intertwining storylines, and you might have left the theater (after your first, third, or however many viewings) wishing you could recapture the rush without buying another movie ticket.
