Flophouse had a fun bit about what happened after Rey said her name was Skywalker. That lady called the cops. As far as anyone on Tatooine knows Luke Skywalker, a quiet kid who enjoyed shooting rats, killed his family and burned down their home then fled on a ship with an outlaw smuggler who killed a Rodian on his way out, and a crazy hermit who chopped off a guys arm on the way out.

If they know anything about his return, Luke killed the number one employer on the planet and destroyed their job infrastructure.

a lot of the movie really only makes sense if you've seen the other movies, like rey and poe and co. must have actually seen the different star wars movies, that's the only way their actions make sense in the movie (aside from it being lazy writing, I know I know). rey must have been a big fan of ANH especially.

Yes, pretty much. Being from a water planet, Mon Cals have a natural aptitude for spatial orientation in three dimensions and make excellent space battle tacticians.

I was reading a magazine the other day (like a caveman) and there was an interview about the making of the original KOTOR. The folks who made that game don't think a KOTOR movie would work because, frankly, they ripped off a lot of scenes from the original trilogy and it'd be a lot more obvious when you're watching it instead of playing it. :v:

Also, they were apparently toying with the idea of making a Game of Thrones game (in the year 2000!) before Lucasarts cold-called them and they were put on the path of making a Star War. Now there's an alternate history to ponder...

It was smart enough to take emotional beats but not actual plot points of the original trilogy. John Kotor starts off an everyman but becomes a space-wizard, but his starting point is as an unassuming soldier who develops a bizarre connection with a Jedi, instead of Luke who was a farmer and was the son of a jedi. There's the part where our heroes save a damsel in distress, but how that goes down is very different. The most important thing that's different but still similar is the Big Reveal and then its impact on the Final Confrontation. John Kotor being Revan is still a huge "holy poo poo" moment like "I am your father!" was but the content and implication of this reveal is different enough. Just like the movies, the reveal also adds much more complexity to the relationship between the main hero and main villain. But the nature of the relationship is different enough that it doesn't feel like the same poo poo again.

The plot being structured very differently (mostly a product of it being a game) also helped. I've long been of the opinion that kotor tried to do the same thing as The Force Awakens: recapture what was appealing of the first three movies. But it actually succeeded at it. And of course kotor 2 was a much more successful version of The Last Jedi.
