Star Wars: Episode IX - THE RISE OF SKYWALKER

[Malgus]

I cant believe they were going to make Leila the last Jedi and the trainer of Rey when Luke is obviously the only character that made sense. Hopefully the next trilogy happens after a change in management at Disney. Even the CEO needs to go. I liked Rogue one and force awakens but this women as the best fighter makes no sense. Rey is not anyone with a brain's idea of the best possible fighter. Leia the non fighting old woman as her trainer made no sense.

I was just trying to remember some characters from this trilogy and I realized that every villain gets repeatedly beaten, berated and abused in sometimes slapstick comic ways. I guess they really did need to bring Palpatine back. He’s our only hope of creating some stakes for Rey.

I can't even stand to see Star Wars anymore. Some just can never give it up, but the content has simply ruined SW forever. Tired of any prequel garbage just knowing how it all horribly ends.

Maybe I should know better than to try making sense of the trailer, but that line - "People keep telling me they know me" - who is she talking about? Aside from maybe Maz I don't recall anyone saying that. In fact Luke kept asking, "Who ARE you?"

I took it as referring to her notoriety within the Resistance after the events on Crait.

I did read that Bob Igor is shelving all the Star Wars movie projects for the next several years. The only new Star Wars stuff will get will be from their streaming service. I find the timing of the announcement a little surprising considering Rise of Skywalker hasen't come out yet. Makes me wonder if they're not getting good feedback on RoS from the early test screenings.

Think it's just what they are doing with MCU as well (after the getting the Fox properties) e.g. taking their foot off the gas. Common sense if u want to maintain dominance. Plus, Disney is getting good buzz from the planned MCU series and Mandalorian. They just don't want to take a wrong step. It's all about keeping the dollars rolling in and keeping the stock up. There's competition in the streaming arena too - Disney has invested a fortune, but so has the the juggernaut Amazon in the upcoming LOTR series.

And plenty will go see SW like they went to Captain Marvel (without knowing a thing about the MCU) 'coz of the release date - u can take families etc. to SW. Dunno if it's ever been *guessed* how much profit comes from "true fans" vs. folks like me, who aren't "true fans" or into the lore/backstories.

Some article I read pointed out that every single SW movie ever released had a bunch of backlash and complaints at release, tho don't know if it was anything like TLJ. Time changes the way people look at stuff. I'm sorry I listened re Solo, which actually I think is pretty enjoyable (when I finally saw it). Anyway, tickets for next-day matinee purchased. All the fan events completely sold out, and around me that's a LOT of theaters. SW will make first weekend numbers, no matter how pedestrian it may or may not be. Honestly the trailers haven't done much for me, and Rey seems to me to be too scrawny to be a badass, but whatever.

Let's see...

Heading into ROTJ:

Vader 2-0 in lightsaber duels
Fett undefeated
Emperor undefeated
Jabba not seen but got his man
Piett alive, lost Falcon but only due to the fluke of R2 turning on the hyperdrive at the last second

Heading into ROTS:

Palpatine undefeated
Dooku undefeated

Heading into TROS:

Kylo Ren 0-2 in lightsaber duels
Hux humiliated
FO deep cover agent Rose in a coma

Forget bringing back Palpatine, OOM-9 fared better than the ST villains, lol.

Lol. Look, I own the first Rey HT Ok? I did like her being a desert scrounger. And the food situation probably wasn't too great.

But I can totally believe Danai Gurira would kick *ss. But like Rey against Kylo not so much. If I'd been setting up a fight it would have training her for speed, agility. Not that anyone asked. Tho I guess the Force is with Rey so presumably it doesn't matter.

 

[jye4ever]

That chick is going to be someone or something important.

She will literally transform into a large walking and talking midichlorian lol

You forgot the forgettable phasma and how she was killed so easily and didn?t do ****. These villains suck and there is zero stakes.

Also wanna point out sonic movie trailer has more likes than TROS and is gaining more views. It?s over Disney. Pack it up.

I smell a retcon brewin in 10 yrs

I agree. After the last two movies there is no tension anymore. Rey the wonder girl can beat anyone. She beat Kylo twice and will again in TROS. The emperor doesn't even stand a chance against her. You know she's going to get some spiritual help, but she's going to win. My only fear is at the end the falcon will be destroyed along with Chewie and Lando just to ensure that she doesn't lose.

I didn't forget Phasma. I only named villains that survived until the last movie of the trilogy. So no Phasma or Snoke for the ST.

 

[Buttmunch]

I wouldn’t be surprised if Phasma survived and shows up in RoS. She was JJ’s favorite and her ‘death’ was ambiguous at best. If you read the Phasma novel, you’d know what a beast she is. I’d like to see that finally brought to the screen.

 

[Otomofan]

So she'd be able to survive a super long fall, somehow, and ALSO survive an explosion??

Movie audiences may be dumb, but they're not THAT dumb.

Oh. Never mind.
