Probably won’t be, with Celebration soon. But I’m hoping I’m wrong, too.

Sorry, Fast and Furious schlock makes more money than Star Wars movies now, hence why they're showing Hobbs & Shaw instead.

Finally something on the Knights of Ren:

https://makingstarwars.net/2019/02/rumors-speculation-star-wars-episode-ix-and-the-threat-of-the-knights-of-ren/

Not sure what to make of that. The "Beyond" being a stand in name for the Unknown Regions, or something extra-galactic? Returning Sith empire? Really didn't expect this plot angle at this stage, but it could tie back in to the Old Republic Sith in some way I guess. At least it seemingly explains where the Knights were.

Why. What does he contribute at this point? He's a dumb sidekick that's done almost nothing of worth in the ST. He was barely there in the OT. Just kill him off.

Remember, these are real rumors that have come with information that has been validated in various aspects of Star Wars on screen. So the rumors by themselves have validity.

*EU Chewbacca was killed because they wanted to make a big splash and he never did much in the books because no one wants to read "rhrhrh" a bunch

*Film Chewbacca is a costume that a tall person can be coached to walk in the right way and a library of sound effects. He will never die

Lando shows up in the last scene to bill the New New Republic for stealing his ship in TLJ (and to court them for new war machine contracts)

A silly little mouse!

I want J.J to make IX as if we're in the timeline where the version of TLJ he actually expected to be made happened. Just have characters constantly reference events that never happened, characters who died be alive with no explanation or surprise from other characters, just stuff to really drive home how ill thought out and mismanaged this whole trilogy has been.

The Republic and the remains of the Empire having to work together against an ancient threat from the Unknown Regions, while clearly cribbed from the old EU, would have been a much more interesting way to start the sequel trilogy than the soft reboot of TFA.
