That is probably the scene before they have to go and time travel to prevent this.

Or the space Nazi's just straight up win. That would be a nice change actually.

palps returns, the nupire crushes the nubellion in the first act then it's just a feel good story of how a fractured galaxy returned to order and prosperity.

What if the rebels try to find the death star to use it against the empire.

"Sure, Lando can fix this thing and we can all go home!"

"Oops, the ghost of the emperor is still haunting this thing, halp"


Aw well at least with JJ at the helm it'll look pretty and probably won't have an ugly casino or fake snow planet  :lol

You know what? Unironically, that'd be an improvement. I bet John Wick could kill the entire fleet within a minute breaking no sweat.

Bonus, he wouldn't be missing the broadside of a barn like Stormtroopers.

These seem to have changed from the last time I read them... and these are actually a lot better. It still has the problem of too much reliance on old nostalgia and everyone being interconnected, but it reads like a more enjoyable Star Wars movie overall.

All this talk about the end of the saga would mean something if the sequel trilogy actually had any real weight or feeling behind it. I don't really care about these characters and they sure don't feel like a group of friends. C3P0 saying "I'm looking at my friends" feels so empty. These characters hardly feel like they've interacted. I don't even feel like Rey knows Poe and so on. The sequel trilogy has really failed.

That trailer actually got me hyped opposed to the one where Rey jumps over evil ship in desert trailer.

I still think the second film didn't line things up well enough to build up a final crescendo, but whatever. At this point you gotta conclude it even if the characters arcs seem undercooked.

And in response to the other post, why wouldn't Rose still be in this movie? I don't recall her dying or anything after trying to pull a love can bloom on a battlefield moment which was awful awful awful in episode 8.

Edit: I agree with Rahx.

it's true, all of it: https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsLeaks/comments/cxmfsv/the_basic_plot_of_episode_ix_the_rise_of/

All this talk about the end of the saga would mean something if the sequel trilogy actually had any real weight or feeling behind it.

These characters hardly feel like they've interacted. I don't even feel like Rey knows Poe and so on. The sequel trilogy has really failed.

yeah, i enjoyed the trailer, but it feels like they're trying to conjure a great sense of mystery, desperation and finality based on fuck all beyond big visuals, a soaring soundtrack and lines usually found on the wall of a call centre. like trying to conjure enthusiasm for your 5th wank of the hour by hanging your belt round the door handle.

still, it can't be as creatively barren as VII or outright terrible as VIII, even if the leaks make it sound like a parody of how JJ would make a star wars film.

The trailer has some really neat visuals and exciting set pieces it seems; already better than VIII in that sense, but this...

Is the main issue.

It's comical how they managed to create a trilogy arguably more messy than the prequels one, not necessarily worse, but certainly less cohesive.
These characters barely had a clear arc, barely interacted with one another, and were essentially suffocated by the nostalgia bait and the old cameos.
Also how the fuck do you constantly retcon within the span of 3 movies? It's like each movie was bring written in secret, from the other ones.

Too bad, despite not thinking much of the movie itself, i really liked the new characters in VII.

Writing a trilogy one movie at a time, with no end goal in mind, and no consideration for what comes next is the dumbest way to handle these movies.

The written in secret thing is the problem with the trilogy. They wrote each movie of a trilogy, one movie at a time, with no consideration with where it was going next.

It still boggles my mind that they did this. Like, I'm actually fine with the second movie blasting apart the things that the first movie set up but if they're just going to retcon everything in the third movie, then what was the point of it all?

I was thinking about this and I think maybe they meet barely at the end of TFA? And then again when she saves everyone at the end of TLJ? Also I couldn't remember which happens first, the big nonsense portion on the Star Destroyer or the nonsense on the ground.

The only way to stop them and have them pull a MCU on the series (aka: plan everything) is have more "Solo: A Star Wars story" bombs.

The only one i've seen in the cinema was VII, and i've stopped exactly because it was clear they didn't know what the fuck they were doing, so i wouldn't agree with that.
I'd say after the Prequel Trilogy/Special Editions, anybody was ecstatic to see SW in the hands of anybody BUT Lucas; they had a free goal, and still managed to sort of hit the post.


How the fuck do they manage to make every SW film that comes out somehow controversial, despite being a saga about space wizards and laser swords.

Rogue One had it's heart in the right place. It was supposed to be a story about random people/misfits (getting fucked over by the Empire) banding together to pull off an impossible heist.  Like a "Dirty Dozen" in space.

But (I'm guessing due to editing by the studio), the story was chopped up in such a way that you never felt like the other team members had their moment to shine and really be integral to pulling off the heist. So, we got all this set up of introducing them but never the pay off at the end. 

I don't think world-building is really crucial in a story like that. It's more about character arcs and proper casting (which they also kind of whiffed on).

I think the director outright said he took some of those shots specifically because they'd look good in a trailer, without any intention of having them in the movie, which is beyond bizarre, even though it makes sense, that guy has only made visually fun movies, with nothing else behind them.
