Wrote my movie instead of that POS Rian Johnson who wrote something completely different than what i obsessed over for 2 f’ing years!!! The nerve!



It's not that it wasn't "my movie" it's that Rian Johnson took a fat steamy shit all over the set ups that JJ started in Force Awakens. This video explains most of the universal critiques.

That video is unwatchable and didn't discuss the movie in the four minutes I sat thru. It whined about the director treatment of fans mostly.
I like that teaser just fine,

and I think Daisy Ridley is really good in that role, but isn't calling this episode "The Rise of Skywalker" like calling the 2019 Giants "The Rise of Manning"?
The Rise of Skywalker?

Hopefully they won't kill him off too. Also I hope that he isn't still fucking robots. God Solo was an awful movie.

About the Emperor returning. I didn't really get that from the teaser but I guess combined with him at the show today when the preview ended and yelling "roll it again" people are assuming that they are confirming he's back? lol. People are going nuts about this.

I don't think he is coming back but I could see him appear as a force ghost for Kylo Ren. If the Jedi can do it why can't the Sith?

Why hasn't Anikin come to speak to Kylo yet. I haven't figured that out as he came back at the return of the Jedi.

Maybe he has. In The Force Awakens Kylo is talking to Vader's helmet asking him to show him "again".

Yeah maybe. He was chasing eternal life though and also all we ever really saw was Vader throw him down a hole and then everything exploding later. Enough characters have survived much worse. Wasn't on my radar at all but now Im rooting for him to be alive and behind everything. The Smoke stuff was weak and I still feel like Kilo is conflicted. There needs to be a better common enemy but we'll see I guess.

The Death Star was destroyed shortly after that. It would be a little much if he survived that fall and managed to escape somehow prior to the second death star blowing up. It would be quite lame to bring back the Emperor after just bringing back Darth Maul in Solo.

I dont really view Solo as part of this saga but I guess... Point is, we never really saw the Emperor die so if they wanted to get away with it for ANYONE, it probably is the most likely they could do it with him, lame or not. There's probably a bunch soldiers, or TIE Fighters that could have scooped him up before the Death Star exploded if they wanted to go that route.

Actually, the more I think about it, it would be even more lame to bring back a guy like Maul who got cut in half and not do it for the much bigger villain in Palpatine who we never see die.
Or maybe he discovered how to live eternally

NYG07 : 4/12/2019 3:49 pm : link
to have Palpatine somehow survive the fall in the Death Star in ROTJ but it would make sense for him to have a role in the first order. That would make him the villain in the Skywalker saga through all 9 episodes which would be fitting.

I am not into the extended universe but my brother told me that in legends, Palpatine does not die in the Death Star, which I am assuming is the extended universe where Darth Maul was brought back in too.

I am guessing he will be a force ghost too. I just don't know how they are going to wrap this up. Is Kylo Ren turning to the light the rise of skywalker? He would need a villain like Palpatine to turn on for that to be the case now that Snoke is dead.

That would be cool. I think it was stupid to bring back Maul but the emperor coming back would have been a better decision. The problem is that you can't just keep bringing people back because then the deaths will carry no weight. Wasn't it suggested that Darth Sidious was the one who manipulated the force to create Anakin? If so it would be a crazy twist if Rey was created the same way only she never turned.

Damn. That would be really cool. Wasn't even thinking that way. Would be a good way to explain her lineage.

What if Kylo Ren is able to not only communicate with the emperor as a force ghost but he is able to channel his strength? That would be a crazy new twist and it would make Kylo Ren a far more formidable opponent.
i still have a small feeling that Kylo reigns in the end for good and

That was indeed Darth Maul in Solo: A Star Wars Story.

His character was brought back in one of the cartoon series. I was confused when he appeared in the movie because I don't watch the cartoons.

Darth Maul survived and was given robot spider legs in the clone wars cartoon. He reappears in Rebels(after Solo time)but his fate is clearly shown. he is certainly not around in the sequel times but some other characters from Rebels could be.
Sith cannot become...  
vonritz : 4/12/2019 5:02 pm : link
Force ghosts like a Jedi. However, they can attach themselves to objects where they die. This has happened in the Clone Wars cartoon (Yoda's walkabout episodes, a Sith lord is attached to a Sith temple), and I believe it also happened in Rebels and the Darth Vader comic. There is a good chance Palpatine is "haunting" the Death Star 2 remnants.

But, I can't help but think that title was chosen simply to placate the fans, like me, who were unhappy with Last Jedi. If that's the case, it's a big fail.



I think its entirely possible Luke's story was never over and people jumping the gun on his ending need to hold off until the series is over.
Most people didn't want a fofce ghost of Luke, but to acfuallybsee the most powerful Jedi ever in action. So, unless Luke is actually alive and a key character, the setup Rian Johnson gave us screwed that up and wasted what JJ was trying to do.

But, again, that is more on JJ for not writing Last Jedi and zimply getting a director.

And I hope I'm wrong. There were people saying the same thing about Ford, but I think he still has "it" and as bad as the last Indiana Jones movie was, I thought he was still Indy fully.
