Rey should have said "just Rey" at the end. It's a callback to the beginning when she doesn't know how to answer to the little girl but this time she says it with confidence, showing her journey.
The film would have to be called the rise of Rey, which is actually better.
Stop expecting good writing. That would have been an awesome idea.
@@vasari9198 It could still be the rise of Skywalker, but Kylo is the Skywalker. (I know his name is Solo, but he's Leia's son too and he's a Jedi)

"The worst a movie franchise can do is make you feel stupid for getting exited about it." Wise words, indeed.

@skankhunt42 Dexter taught me to just jump ship on Walking Dead when I found myself actively not enjoying myself watching it anymore, and that it was just a habit from when I *used* to like it
@@swampgoat6343 I will say that if JJ Abrams and Disney were WILLING to go in the direction Rian Johnson pointed them towards, there could've been some interesting developments. However, the unrelenting, and frankly amazingly hyperbolic, backlash TLJ received scared Disney to basically backtrack on the movie in its entirety. I have no doubt that if the backlash wasn't so deafening than they would've continued from where Rian Johnson left it and the trilogy would be MUCH more cohesive.
Cohesion doesn't insure quality. Also going by your logic rian should have just followed jj's outline.

I had a blue Honda Civic once.

I'll never forget I had to use the bathroom during the movie, and when I got back I asked my wife what happened and she said "Oh Chewy was blown up in a space ship but we already know he's fine."
The fact that something that should've been impactful was thrown out so nonchalantly is an incredible indictment of the writing.
That was a pretty long bathroom break.

Still a better line than the movie
I would have liked that WAYY more than the actual line lol
That actually would suck but not as much as in the actual movie 'Rey Skywalker'
"It doesn't matter that she blew up a ship full of prisoners because none of them were named characters" might be THE MOST Star Wars thing in this entire movie.
One thing I'm shocked no one ever talks about is how stupid it is that kylo gets Luke's lightsaber and rey gets leia's. Rey was following what luke wanted for her, she wanted to be part of Luke's family. Kylo was called back from the dark side by his mother, and he never forgave Luke trying to kill him.
The only reason I see for them getting their repsective lightsaber is because one was a ""boy"" lightsaber and the other was a ""girl"" lightsaber.
(I realize this is 7 months late, but w/e)
Also the amusing notion that Kylo takes up this saber like it's Excalibur, having thrown away his own one. The most notable deeds done pre-ST with that weapon are the crippling of Mace Windu, the summary execution of Count Dooku and the dismemberment of a a room full of children.
THANK YOU
Also i wish they were at least different colors because it was very hard to tell which was which during that scene
@@JohannDakitsch It also didn't help that they were using blue sabers in a very blue place - amusing as Luke's saber was green because Lucas and Marquand realised they were shooting its first appearance against a blue sky and changed the colour for that reason.
Added to that, Kylo's fight with the Knights is pretty incoherent and they're all dudes in black with weapons that don't light up (anyone else find it weird that they didn't get vibro/plasma blades like Snoke's guards?)
I guess, it all comes down to the notion that Leia is a Skywalker. I think what JJ tried to do: Make a story in which Leia Organa accepts herself as a Skywalker. Like, accept Luke as his brother and accepts Vader as someone who was redeemed.
Abrams seemed to be obsessed in closing abandoned storylines from the Original Trilogy, and this probably is one of them. I speculate that there were lots of scenes about Leia coming to terms with her legacy that were left behind. So, Rey does it for her.
TRoS is about Leia (and the Jedi) using Rey as a puppet, so this idea wouldn't be so crazy.

Except the Sequels were bad from the start, but TFA left a chance for a Sequel to repair it's damage, TLJ threw that chance out the window. TROS is just spitting on a dead corpse.

Until this video, I never even thought about the fact that Kylo Ren would have known Chewbacca his whole life. Another thing this trilogy did terribly.
Well that’s why Chewbacca didn’t fire a deadly shot with the bowcaster at the end of force awakens
That's okay, nobody who knew Chewie for a really long time cared for him all that much in this entire trilogy.
@@swagromancerHan?
@@sackthebastardno. That's just shitty writing.
Chewie would have been his goddamn godfather !
To me the issue with this trilogy is that they had all of these ideas but very few ideas on how to do anything impactful or effective with them. Like they think "maybe we should have a more diverse cast with a female lead" and "maybe a main character is a reformed storm trooper" and "what if Leia and Han's son is turned to the dark side" but they don't think about it further than that. Like Jenny said, it's just a list of things.
Blame the Fandom Menace. Rian Johnson expanded on those ideas. Rey had dark side tendencies and longed for a family, only to find out her parents weren't anyone special. Ren turns more to the dark side and longs to be supreme leader which he ultimately does in TLJ. Finn, while a former storm trooper, still didn't see what the resistance was fighting for until he sees enslaved people often overlooked during the war, and the greedy wealthy who sweep things under the rug. Some really angry fans didn't want to accept these plot developments and Disney caved to shallow nostalgia. If only RJ (who btw was closest in showing us what GL intended for the sequels) had directed the sequels, we would have not gotten a soft reboot of the OT.....if only......
@@sebastianbelcher5354 Yes, it's always the fan's fault.
If it was anyone but JJ, I would say for sure there was a plan and Rian just crapped all over it/made it unusable. But I've seen enough of Lost and Star Trek, that I wouldn't actually bet money on it.
@@sebastianbelcher5354 I'll admit, I had my fair share of issues with TLJ, but if TROS had at least continued what that movie started then the trilogy as a whole would've still been so much better. But no, Disney and JJ decided to just pretend it never happened I guess. It's crazy how (at least imo) even Colin Treverrows version would've been better than whatever we got.
@@la_scrittice_vitabruh, JJ is clearly the one who crapped all over this project. He proved he is a terrible director with hack ideas. TFA speaks for itself and RoS proves he has never known wtf he is doing.
i feel like most of the writers for this trilogy forgot that jedi weren't supposed to have families, and like **most** of them never had children and you don't need to be descended from someone to use the force
which is wild because the entire premise of force awakens is that the Force Awakens in a bunch of people who are completely unrelated to it.
and then they forgot.
A-fricken-men
Yeah, I always wonder why people wanted to know who Rey's parents were because they wanted to know why she got her powers. Who are Mace Windu's, Kenobi's or Yoda's parents.
@@bebo2629 Except those characters, you know, TRAINED like Luke to get their powers I imagine. If I'm wrong I stand corrected. Rey was just perfection out of the gate, so the question then is, come on writers throw us a bone here, is there a reason why she's overpowered or is it you're just idiots. Turned out that there was a reason, her Palpatine bloodline (although why did it skip a generation?), AND of course they're also just idiot writers because the whole trilogy is a dumpster fire.
That's why people wanted to know. Then of course TFA kind of thrusts her parents in your face as a mystery box, it does want to suggest here's a question that will get answered along the way, so there's that too, you're primed to wonder who her parents are.
@@WokeBegone How was Rey perfet? She does not win a single fight against an other force user on her own?

Rey naming herself Skywalker definitely feels like they picked the title of the movie first and got all the way through the script before realizing that "Rise of Skywalker" had nothing to do with anything that had happened
Indeed. Studio Board meeting "Hey guys, a bunch of SW nerds on twitter are complaining that The Last Jedi made luke into a flawed wimp, and now any old joe can be a jedi now! What about the freakin' midichlorians?! We need to bring things back Old School style!" "I Got it. We need to put "Skywalker" in the title!" "Yep, that'll attract those fans that are in fact only a small visible demographic of the true SW fanbase that we actually shouldn't care so much about."
Well the same thing happened in Phantom Menace so the series has a record of it.
@@weneedaladder8384 Phantom Menace pretty clearly refers to the Sith running things behind the scenes but not properly revealing themselves until the end of the movie. A more accurate comparison would probably be The Force Awakens, a film wherein the Force does not, at any point, awaken. Because, uh, that's not how the Force works.
The last Skywalker, Ben Solo rises out of the pit to save Rey. Palpatine says himself that Ben is the last Skywalker btw. That's partly what the title refers to.

The only thing this movie made me feel was insulted. That they thought any viewer would be stupid enough to enjoy this vapid slop.
I guess they were ultimately right though, there are still legions of weirdos who endlessly hate on TLJ with incoherent reasons (like saying Rian ruined Luke's character as if he wasn't going down the logical continuation of what was set up in TFA) and praise RoS.
As someone who watched both Star Wars and GoT, it was a double gut punch having both series end like that within only a few months. Big enough that I haven't really gone back to watching anything in any of the fantasy subgenres since.

The writers were just incompetent from start to finish, over the whole trilogy, it's astonishing they took so little care of their billion dollar franchise. Anything would do, no quality control, they felt entitled to your money.
She didn't kill him herself, she redirected his force lightning against him, so essentially she forced him to kill himself. I thought it was pretty obvious that's what the writers were going for when I first watched the movie but considering I haven't seen anyone else talk about this interpretation I'm second guessing myself idk
The whole thing about rey being sold into what is essentially slavery in order to "protect her" is all the more moronic when you realize that both luke and leia went through exactly the same experiences, as they needed to be hidden from vader and the emperor, but instead of being sold to a mercenary, they were given to a there aunt and uncle, and to a king of a planet respectively. Like come on did they just forget the plot of the previous movies.

Same. Watched them years later just out of curiosity and opportunity. First one was obvious social justice messaging mixed with plot line regurgitation or even cloning. Second felt like it was building... Something.

I honestly cannot believe the last line wasn't: "Just Rey." But said contentedly with a smile, in contrast to the last time she said it where it was said with insecurity and a bit of sadness, to symbolize that it doesn't matter anymore who her biological family was (and they sucked harder than could be imagined) because she has a new family with her friends in the resistance and family names don't apply so she can be "just Rey" and it's fine. Like when she paused before answering I was actually feeling a little bit of emotion in anticipation of the line that I was sure had to be coming. Instead what had become the familiar feeling of empty confusion returned, only this time there wasn't a new scene to make me forget the dumb thing that had just happened.

The "your son will die" vs kylo dying issue feels like the sort of problem that happens when a prophecy is introduced into a story before the writer decides how it's going to be resolved, and then several installments later they clumsily try to twist the events to match and it doesnt quite fit. But it sounds like the prophecy is both introduced and resolved in this movie! So when JJ decided how the end was gonna go, why didnt he rewrite the prophecy to fit it better??
Always assume the soothsayer/scroll/dream frog spouting prophesy is full of shit.
Behind the scenes, this movie clearly had a lot of rewrites. It's a Frankenstein's Monster. Maybe in whatever version of the script originally that prophecy it made more sense.

I love that Finn doesn't know which ship out of two Chewie is on but his gut feeling tells him exactly which Star Destroyer out of a hundred thousand carries the beacon.
Well it's fortunate that the star destroyers patiently waited out the moment when he diacovers that ability in himself - And that Palpatine's power enabled him to raise like a thousand warships out of the ocean simultaneously without effort but his force range ended at somewhere in the lower atmosphere, from which point on, the star destroyers needed a beacon to know which way was "up". And that Palp's tech was advanced enough to grow force sensitive puppet dark lords, but not so much that he could build in an autopilot function into his star destroyers that would have made them, in the absence of further commands, simply move away from the pull of the gravity well.

TBH he should have been Ben Organa, given that Bail Organa was a kind and loving father, and a pivotal member of the rebel alliance, not to mention it would be a nice memorial to Leia’s family on Alderaan.
Yeah, Skywalker came out of nowhere.
@@PhantasmalBlast I refuse to believe that's how he got the name solo. In fact most of the Disney start wars I refuse to believe is canon because most of it is so so stupid, especially the last jedi onwards
ideal: hux doesn't get shot and goes on an adventure with the leads, but ALSO kylo reforms earlier in the film, so they end up on the same side again by accident and the vibes on the ship have never been worse
I like it! I also feel like someone's probably written that fanfic by now.
And then Rey becomes Darth Rey, and joins the First Order, and eventually both sides are functionally the same as they were originally, just with different names.
@@willow5945 Darth Rey is too normal and not-stupid for a sith name, she’d have to change to like Darth Eevil or something
@@alexs0s I mean, Reddit might disagree with you, but...
How I see it, Rey and Darth Rey are two different people. Darth Rey is actually the real actress, Daisy Ridley, who took spice one day and was transposed into the Star Wars galaxy. Daisy then turned to the Dark Side in a bid to find the knowledge to get home. Upon becoming a Sith, she changed her name to Darth Rey. Now, in order for Rey to "become" Darth Rey, she would have to quite literally shapeshift into the role--mind, body and spirit--which I believe is indeed possible if you utilitze the principle of the Rey Eternal and let down your Rey Shields.
That sounds like fun this should be a ship fic

Right, because if a galactic evil wizard wanted to kill my daughter, selling her would be my first option as well. Luke? Given to his aunt and uncle. Leia? Given to this rich royal family who always wanted a daughter, on a peaceful planet. Rey? Sold to a junk merchant. Solid plan.

Palpatine exclaiming to the galaxy "WHAT'S UP, SUCKERS? I'M ALIVE!!!" is the most un-Palpatine like thing ever.
But it's something Ian McDirmand would do
I know there's a lot of disagreement about which of the Disney Star Wars movies are good or bad or for what reasons, but at least we can all agree that picking directors for each movie who ACTIVELY DISAGREED with each other on where the overall story should go was an unfathomably bad idea.
Yeah, they should’ve just given someone their own trilogy. Either JJ , Rian, or someone else, idc, just make it one person’s vision.
It’s ultimately what doomed the trilogy, there is no cohesion
they should have just done the correct thing....... gotten m night shyamalan for the last.... "TWIST!"
I get the suspicion it was going to be three different directors total, the third taking the first two and tying it all up, but then TLJ got lambasted by fanboys, Disney got gunshy and brought back Abrams, and we got this mess.
@@The11thEvilEx
As far as I can see, that would have been equivalent to what we got. The issue was the change in directors in itself, not in going back to the first director for #3. Whoever did the third movie would still be stuck with the task of tying together two prequels that just don't get along.
My headcanon is that Palpatine was actually not prepared for Rey yet and the "you must kill me" thing was just him trying to reverse-psychology her.
And he wasn’t actually expecting Kylo he was just bluffing and playing some recorded mp3 file.
My headcanon is that she kills him with her head cannon
@@NotQuiteFirst how long have you waited to say that?
Palpatine: No balls, you won't
My head cannon is that Han and Chewy got some crazy herbal substance from Lando and shared it with Luke and Leia and this whole trilogy was some bad space acid trip the four of them had.
A friend said it was "Concept Art: The Movie" and that really stuck with me.
The trilogy is the story of one storyboard artist’s desperate attempt to make a series of movies at least visually enjoyable, even when 75% of the rest of production is collapsing in on itself.
Visually great though. .. I have to admit
All the money in the world can't rescue a badly written script.

The whole Palpatine thing and Rey Skywalker (which was bullshit) were the worst ones for me. That and the spaceship on jakku thing, I couldn't tell what happened either. Did Reys parents take a u turn and get killed somehow, and then ochi gets killed near the ship?? Maybe they did have the same ship.
Another theory is that Reys parents got off world, got killed by ochi and he took the ship to get Rey but fucked it up and died. That's just awful, what a terrible employee to have who fucks up that bad. How many fuck ups can an assasin do in a couple of days, where they get this guy from, the parole board.

@Gwendolyn depending on ur politics they do that all the time, moreso imo by refusing to tell complex narratives properly and trying to grey villains who do not have a grey morality- it drags the heroes down. The way they white and black hat characters leads to a lot of protagonists who are like, genuinely bad people with terrible ideas that deserve deconstruction and critique. And then they just. Don’t.
I get what you mean though. It’s just too off brand tho so I doubt they’re ever gonna give it to us in a way that doesn’t do a lot of harm :/
It's not that I think the #1 job of hats is to keep you dry when it's raining. They are rarely large enough to keep even your shoulders dry. And that's ignoring sideways rain or walking in the rain. I'm a realist on these matters. HOWEVER, at the very least, I don't think that hats should gather all the rain that would have otherwise hit your head and then funnel it directly onto your ears, shoulders and arms. That's bad design.
It's just a water feature at that point 😜
i wear hats to prevent skin cancer so. we have very different weather hat problems.

Shmi: “There was no father.” Translation: “I followed the Palpatine rock tour when I was as younger, but I signed an NDA. Last I heard he was dating a Gungan.”
The biggest missed opportunity with Rey Palpatine is they should have made Palpatine act loving and grandfatherly to her. He should have seduced her like Anakin but even more effective because of her desire for family. There should have been a scene of Rey reluctantly fighting Kylo while she claims through tears that no, Palpatine is good she can see it when he's actually just manipulating her. The best villains are ones that exploit the deepest weakness of the protagonist. Palpatine could have done this to Rey better than anyone else. It could have been perfect. He could have offered her family. But, no they made him space Hitler zombie Satan and they fought with swords. Huge missed opportunity.
While I disagree with Rey Palpatine, having Sheev be manipulative would be more accurate than keeping this a secret from her.
Yes! Exactly! They even missed that opportunity. That would have been a perfect fit if Palpatine was to come back!
Yes, but the problem with this, it would have required caring about the whole thing, and understanding basic concepts about storytelling and SW
Damn that would've been really cool to see. That manipulative and kind old man comes back for a moment, saying things about how all he wanted was for his granddaughter to come back to him.
It would've immediately explained how this man could've possibly had a family. If he employed the same tactics he used with Anakin, I think he could absolutely have a family, and he could absolutely manipulate Rey too.
And then Rey would have like an actual moral dilemma instead of "do I get the power to save my friends but lose control of my body, thus rendering this power useless and this decision incredibly obvious"
‘Space Hitler Zombie Satan’ accurate
Palpatine dying was such a big moment in the 6th episode and star wars in general, his death was the result of Darth Vader becoming Anakin and the light winning over the dark. It was the beginning of a new era and simply bringing him back seemed lazy.
It's just dumb fan-service like the rest of the film.
With the resurrection of Palpatine, both the Original Trilogy AND the Prequel Trilogy were utterly destroyed. That's why the Sequel Trilogy CAN NOT be Canon.
Well, Supreme Leader Kylo Ren felt like the dawn of a new era too. Unfortunately Star Wars isn't the place for that stuff any more.

So I had Ep 9 spoiled for me ages ago. I read synopsis and commentaries on it, watched videos (including this one!), but only just tonight watched the film first hand. Did all of that predispose me to things? Yes. But I was also catching onto things that people weren't mentioning. The film had a frantic editing style to it, minor details like characters handing objects between each others hands didn't get shown. One minute Rey is holding the knife, then on the camera cut 3P0 is holding it. That sort of minor thing is EVERYWHERE in this film. And then there's the literal copying JJ did of the climaxes of Empire and Return of the Jedi. His idea for 7, 8, and 9 was to repeat 4, 5, and 6 in the big respects. Yikes.

Just a little hindsight 4 years later:
Rian Johnson has gone on to write and direct two Knives Out mystery movies that simultaneously brought back and subverted the murder mystery genre, with at least two more coming. He has been nominated for multiple awards for both films.
JJ Abrams has not written or directed anything for television or film since The Rise of Skywalker. His executive producer credits are not for anything of note. He has not been nominated for an award since 2016 for The Force Awakens.
Well I think people are also starting to realize that JJ did the bare minimum with the Star Trek reboot as well and maybe he shouldn’t be as revered as he is.
It truly made me reexamine and more importantly fact check what little I thought I knew about JJ, and yup. He also he didn’t have nearly as much to do with the early promising parts of Lost as I thought. And when he has made things that had potential, it was always in tandem with someone else.
Not saying it’s impossible that he’s good or that he sometimes jumpstarts good things, but in hindsight it’s just… significantly less common than I remembered.
This doesn't change the fact The Last Jedi was crap.
@@frankkennedy6388 True but somehow lots of people did enjoy it, which led to it being divisive.

@@GeneralKenobi75 yep. They caved to incels.

It obviously wasn't platonic and there was romantic interest between the two. We see it with FInn multiple times and Rey a few(like when she knew about Rose and Finn). But Disney or someone at Disney must have a, 'NO FEMALE LEADS WILL HOOK UP WITH MEN' mandate. Because I honestly can't recall any female lead(apart from Beauty and the Beast and Alladin-both revolve around love stories) that have romantic relationships with men. Rey, Raya, Mulan, Maleficient, Frozen, Cruella, Nutcracker etc. Unless you're a remake or existing story that revolves around a romantic relationship, there ain't gonna be one in a female fronted Disney movie. Closest you're gonna get is a male pal, or really close female bonds.
@@GeneralKenobi75 "some stupid haters disliked the character so much"
She attempted to murder Finn in order to kill everyone he was trying to save.

My favorite moment in RoS is subtle and I haven't heard anyone else mention it: when Kylo calls the First Order meeting about the spy in their midst, he gets side-tracked by sensing Hux's dislike for his new helmet. It's brilliant that, from Hux's point of view, he knows Kylo can read his thoughts, and is vain, and so he blasts the thought "KYLO'S NEW HELMET LOOKS DUMB" to get Kylo off the subject of the spy while letting Kylo like he's won something over Hux and is therefore still in control. Great manipulation, it's a pity the rest of Hux's decision-making and characterization isn't to that level.

The conceit of "Magic Blood" and "Bloodlines" is a cheap literary trick to give people powers, wealth and status that they do not earn, or usually deserve. Unfortunately, this conceit has held sway in the real world as a power play for tens of thousands of years, and still does in most of the world. "Royal Blood" has been used as an excuse for the worst of human behavior for millennia, even in communist countries. Only Democracies have a way to overcome it without violent revolution, and that doesn't even work very well, as we evolve "ruling family dynasties" even there.
So when I see it in fiction I know that the writers were lazy and did not want to write in how the characters earned their powers or their higher status over everyone else. Star wars was supposed to be the opposite of that, with the rag-tag group of crusaders helped on by Divine Justice, etc. overcome a bloodline-based imperial system of royalty and fascist oppression in its name. But, no, the temptation to make "Magic Bloodlines" a main thing was too strong,

@@paddyspub7225 Kyle did a voice cameo in the Evermore video (as the lawyer dragon IIRC), and Jenny guested on his podcast… not sure if they did other collabs beyond that though, I’m not caught up on Defunctland.
i am also going through her whole catalogue after the star wars hotel video!!!

Pretty much, yeah.
When your story can only be explained with “and then” instead of “so therefore” you have a terrible story.
And even "somehow"
Not a fan of South Park but Matt and Trey have a quote along the same lines. Good stories are told with "but" and "because."
Truth
@@GreebusBleeb South Park is dope
@@Khorne_of_the_Hill South Park is my favorite show, I hate it
2019 in a nutshell: "The worst thing a franchise ending can do is make you feel kind of stupid and embarrassed for being so excited about it in the first place."
When she said that it legitimately broke my heart.
That's a good description of GoT and Star Wars this year. I'm just thankful Endgame didn't end up the same way.
Kaunte hmm.... That’s debatable :’/
@@RobotLover696 Everything is debatable, you'd be wrong though.
I'm embarrassed I ever watched the Man in the High Castle.
The main theme of this film was JJ Abrams Didn't Like The Last Jedi
Or the studio demanded he answer criticisms to the last Jedi from annoying internet haters who were never worth listening to but gaslit a multi-billion dollar company into thinking they represented the majority of the fanbase, and the multi billion dollar company who has the box office numbers for the Last Jedi easily within reach were stupid enough to fall for it
