What would keep explorers from expanding to almost 50% of the ‘left’ side of the galaxy and not the ‘right’?

Everyone seems to understand quite a number of languages though. There’s probably some sort of education system.

That makes sense, though from a story perspective it’s kind of important/notable that our protagonists don’t have any “normal”, outsider character in their lives, certainly none who they consider equals.

Would have been Elan Sleazebaggano but ObiWan had to brainwash him.

In fairness, it sounds like something Palpatine would totally do and it's better than what we got in Rise of Skywalker.

Which means that Palpatine, upon seeing Luke’s mangled hand, must have thought back to the moment he saw Anakin’s mangled entire body. He must have had a moment where he thought ‘What the hell am I even doing anymore?’

Why does Luke’s hand like to wear gold?

Imagine making your villain out of the hand of the hero from the previous entries. It could hold some pretty interesting meaning if you really explored that in a way only a science fiction/fantasy really could.

But this is what we got lol.

This begs the question as to the whereabouts of Zam Wessell, Ponda Baba and the Wampa’s hands. They may not yield force wielding clones, but they could perhaps be crimelords or some other kind of lesser plot relevant antagonist.

Vader interrogates Leia not with a beneedle’d orb, but plays out pretty much exactly like this:

Hell they even have a perfect setup for it since Rise of Skywalker had him flying off with that ex-stormtrooper woman to find where she comes from or whatever.

I would be very surprised if they really followed up on anything in episode 9 because that movie was a piece of poo poo.

Or referred to themselves as Moffs in any way. Like, have Kyle arrest one of them and as he is dragged away he yells "You can't do this to me, I'm a Moff! You hear me? A Moooooooooff!"

Are we even clear if Sheev in 9 was a clone or the actual surviving body of Palpatine from 6?

Kart Barfunkel
Nov 10, 2009


Sheev’s planet of elusive plot contrivances, strobe lights and quick cuts to mask a rushed set design feel like they came from the Roger Corman school of corner-cutting filmmaking.

The best thing I can say about episode 9 is that it’s the one most suited to watch if you’re really hosed up and literally cannot focus on more than one scene at a time.

I fail to see how making your lead antagonist a total pushover idiot clown who is bad *intentionally* makes for compelling conflict. She couldn’t even intimidate a ten year old girl.

This show sucks so much poo poo. It’s a bunch of nothing written by a hundred bean counters.
