RISE OF THE SKYWALKERS plural would be a better title, "Skywalkers" being upgraded from a family name to a group title.

Both of the JJ titles would be much better with a little shuffling. Awakening of the Force would have been a better title as well imo.

So she can gently caress everything up and deliver a lame platitude to justify it again?

I mean all lovely reactions aside, it would be better if she didn't.

If you pause just as the burning A-Wing swishes by, (1:32) it looks like an old school imperial destroyer in the background.

Either that just drop the plural, Rise of the Skywalker implies the name has become a title itself for the chosen one. Wasn't it in the Journal of the Whills where the first force user was called "The Skywalker" by the common people? Or is that a legends thing?

I don't know. We're probably giving way too much credit and trying to make a lovely title mean something. RISE OF THE ________ is poo poo no matter what movie it is.

Finn: This is just like...

Lando: When I flew through the death star!

Rey: When I flew through the wrecked star destroyer!

Poe: Because it's a wrecked death star both of your nostalgias are correct and good

there are so many interesting things they could have done with Kylo as the lead villain, after the previous film literally chopped the emperor in two, said "let old things die," and installed Kylo on the throne. But nope, gotta introduce a new emperor because that's how old star wars did it.

I like the part where "anyone can be a Jedi" is amended with "but really it's all about the Skywalkers".

I'll accept it if it's Force Ghost Palpatine and he has just been haunting the wreckage of the Death Star II this whole time. If the movie does anything else with Palpatine then I feel like it would be really lame, especially if it's another he was pulling the strings this entire time.

Kylo was able to get in contact with ghost Palp (Same as ghost obi wan but evil it’s poetry it rhymes) and Luke saw that so he tried to murder Kylo.

Palp just really horny for making those Skywalker boys make bad decisions

Rey's not a Skywalker, but it turns out Luke used the Force to make her pregnant (ala Sheev and Shmi), and that's how the Skywalkers "rise".

Then eps 10 through infinity are all Skywalkers, all the time.

WE MUST RETURN TO THE DANCE! THE NIGHT IS OURS!

Really really hope Palpatine's not alive as it kind of cheapens the end of Return of the Jedi plus it's just screams we can't think of anything to do with this movie so we'll bring back the only other good part of the old trilogy we havent touched yet.

So he will probably be alive and right as rain.

I'm kind of hoping his ghost remains in the destroyed Death Star and Kylo goes to it to learn from him just like Rey is learning from Luke's ghost to get more powerful or something like that, Rey goes there to stop him?

Also yea title is bland.

Star Wars being a legacy of rape would probably be more interesting than anything they have going here.
