From what I've read, this is going to be horribly disappointing.

People keep saying "Rian left JJ nothing to close with"... not exactly true.
You could have created a flashback, in which we see a complete ripoff from LOTR--

Snoke as Saruman, fricking around with Sith holocrons. He gets locked in when touching it (as Saruman did when touching the Palantir), and you get Palpatine as Sauron:
Build me an army worthy of Mordor
Only, instead of Mordor, it'a an army worthy of the Sith/Empire etc... the First Order.

So then end the flashback, cut back to current events; Snoke is gone, just like Saruman was. But Palpatine/Sauron is still there in spirit, and reviving/coalescing into tangible form again (as Sauron did).

And re Luke- find him alive on Tatooine, and let him say he just Force-travelled or something like that, instead of dying. The preeminent Jedi master might have learned to do that somewhere along the way.

After that, just take the movie where you planned (if you had a plan) after TFA. Rip off ROTK, who cares.

Heck, they could have taken a page from Stargate SG-1; have Luke and Palpatine basically Ascend into higher spiritual beings, gods of a sort. Palpatine does this first and threatens the Galaxy, Luke then ascends and stops him by locking into enternal conflict (neither can defeat the other, but Luke can keep him occupied while mortals go on about their lives).

Just ahead of the release of The Rise of Skywalker, new information from noted Star Wars gossipmonger Jason Ward (of MakingStarWars) has tipped that a new series has gone into development for Disney+. In a refreshing twist, said series will reportedly feature an out-queer lead.

According to Ward, the show will focus on the character of Dr. Aphra, an Indiana Jones-type archeologist who works with both the Rebels and the Empire during the original trilogy era. The character originally appeared in Marvel comics, and Ward claims that the series would be a joint venture between Lucasfilm & Marvel. Dr. Aphra also happens to be a lesbian.

You forgot to add the cringe inducing, fanfic style Ben/Rey kiss before he dies, cause JJ decided to have Ben crawl out of that pit Palps put him in.

All that a-hole had to do was stop using his Sith lightning and side step out of the way of Rey.

You talking about Anubis? You're forgetting about Adria and the Ori in the following season.

And star wars continues its downwards trend of being strangled by nutcase Hollywood ideologues.

Wow that ending scene is so God awful. You know that turned Kathleen on though.

I have no doubt she was playing with herself when she read that in the script.

Ending scene


Could tell everybody in that theater is cringing, there’s no cheering or clapping at all like you’d think there be.

This is everybody’s face while they watch that travesty of a scene unfold



Also, what’s the logic behind 2 lightsabers reflecting back the lightning at a more powerful rate than 1? All dumbshit Palps has to do is stop with the lightning anyways

An that's the exciting conclusion to Disney's Star Wars Episode 9: Ruse of Soywanker.

So the emperors dead. Again. Is that important? I mean he died 30+ years ago and it doesn't seem like it was a big deal now. Is this time a big deal? Yeesh. That's just lazy filmmaking.

George Lucas said the Emperor was "absolutely dead" after ROTJ.




quote:

Ian McDiarmid recalls a conversation he had about Emperor Palpatine with George Lucas. Before the sequel trilogy hit theaters, the Scottish actor wanted to know if Palpatine was officially dead. According to Lucas, the iconic villain was indeed dead after getting thrown down into the Death Star's reactor by Darth Vader in Return of the Jedi. This is what Star Wars fans have believed to be true for over 30 years now. However, The Rise of Skywalker has somehow resurrected the character.


quote:

Back in 2013, Ian McDiarmid had a chat with George Lucas about Emperor Palpatine. This was before the sequel trilogy hit theaters, but after it had been announced. McDiarmid states, "I remember saying, 'Is he dead, George?' at the time, and he said, 'Yes, he is. Absolutely dead." That seems to be about as official as you can get right there. But, in the Star Wars universe, nobody is ever really gone, which is how The Rise of Skywalker has been marketed. Palpatine is back and there are some serious questions as to how.

Wrong. Star wars is not marvel. This is the entire problem with Disney owning star wars and making movies in the age of marvel dominance.


Star wars should be nothing like marvel. If Disney continues down the stars wars is just marvel but different path, they will kill the franchise.

Disney wants that easy formula to success, but it wont work for star wars and even the marvel formula will get stale.
