Here it is guys! Star Wars Episode 9.. the final star wars. A lot of people have urged me to not watch the sequel trilogy but I'm honestly glad I did, even if they aren't to compare to the other trilogies, they were still worth it in my eyes. I really thought I would hate the sequels, but I didn't, and actually really enjoyed episode 7&9 more than I thought I would!
Thank you guys for joining me on my Star Wars journey, I didn't realize how much I loved the universe until I got immersed in it. Now I'm so heavily tied to these characters it hurts to see anything happen to them LOL it feels like I was missing this part of my life and I can safely call myself a Star Wars fan. Thank you guys for exposing me to Star Wars and I hope you guys enjoyed the ride with me!! It was definitely wild at times LOL
But in the end you guys were right. I did love it❤ - Розваги

...I want to invent ShillSkare...*but what would such a business look like*...
thank you
Okay. Now that you're caught up please react to the HFP videos.
Vkunia - wants to see Adam driver nekked ......LOL.
Vkunia - Palpitine was able to survive, because he mastered the power over DEATH, gained from killing his Former Master , before even EPISODE ONE.
ANIKIN was seduce by SITH in hopes of saving the EMPRESS, Luke & Leia's mother, after Anakin had a Premonition , that she would die.
(from a meme)
Rey: I can block Force lightning with two lightsabers
Mace Windu: I can block Force lightning with one lightsaber
Yoda: I can block Force lightning with my hands
Luke: You guys can block Force lightning?!
😂😂😂
to be fair luke like less then a year of real Jedi training and Ray is just a marry sue. Windu and Yoda are legit masters of the Jedi arts. Ray shouldve got her ass ripped from day one by Kylo.
@@trevorhogen7761 I mean she’s Palpatine’s granddaughter, and basically his direct daughter since she came from a failed Palpatine clone, anyone with a lineage like that is gonna be super powerful, even more so than Luke.
The basic Bass Player discussion after a Band gig. "You guys got payed?"
@@chewy99. More powerful than the chosen ones son with training? huh....
I think its so poetic that Harrison Ford/Han Solo’s last line of the entire saga is simply “I know “.
Its like pottery
Well Doctor, your last line was "I let you go..."
Totally!
One of the very very few things this movie did well.
Hey, Doctor! Nice seeing you in this universe!
Can you please travel back in time and fix the midichlorians thing? Just don't tell me it is a fixed point!
“Nice flying, Lando” 21:56 The actor (Dennis Lawson) is Wedge Antilles from the original trilogy. Awesome they bring him back into the final fight.
He's also Ewan McGregors uncle.
@@phantom6 Is he really?
@@EntertainmentFan11 Yes. He is.
The thing that gets me, though, is that he was meant to have the Poe Dameron role in Forcr Awakens, but he didn't want to do what amounted to a cameo...which was essentially what his appearance here ended up being.
I enjoyed the big “there are more of us“ moment. Yeah maybe it wasn’t as emotionally fulfilling as it could’ve been, but I still like the idea that the entire galaxy has finally had enough. This one single man Palpatine threw an entire galaxy into war and chaos for several decades. So even normal citizens like farmers showed up in their little ships to help out.
VKunia: I love this movie
VKunia 3 minutes later: I hate this movie.
Like every SW fan
Complete victory of the Palpatine bloodline, burying the Skywalkers in the sand, and taking their name. 😂
''Somethings are stronger than blood''
Reminds me of the 3rd Punic War when the Romans slaughtered, dismantled what was left of Carthage and then salted the earth. Complete and total annihilation.
I don’t see how killing Emperor Palpatine and ending his quest to become immortal and rule the galaxy is “victory” for Palpatine, but ok
@@Im__Gavin because she's a palpatine, try to keep up lol
@@DisgruntledHippo I would love an epic film trilogy of the Punic Wars.
I just binged your Star Wars reactions. This was genuinely fun. I laughed and cried along with you. I'm an old fan. I saw Star Wars in a drive in theater in '77 with my Mom and my Grandma. It was the first movie I ever got to see at a theater. Very special to me.
:") 💕
The people who support the Star Wars. Sequel trilogy are not George Lucas fans or supporters. George Lucas said himself that the first 6 are his. And the sequel trilogy is not. Disney ruined Star Wars Lucas films is now only worth a quarter of what it was worth back in 2012. A big thank you to all those people who supports the Star Wars. Sequel trilogies, you guys helped ruin the Star Wars franchise.
@@louiedavis4909 Yeah, yeah, now go to sleep, buddy.
@@thewildegeekmode5948 Quiet, you pathetic DISNEY Star Wars fan. I can probably say that I was never one of those idiots that complained about the remastered versions. I can also proudly say that I was never one of those idiots that complained about the prequel trilogy. And I can probably say that. I am not thirsty, like all these idiots for Disney Star Wars.
@thewildegeekmode5948 Ha ha ha, you're Ahsoka show is sucking in ratings. It's getting beat out by Grey's Anatomy, Bluey, who is Erin Carter, and Suits.
Rey being a descendant of Palpatine was an amazing twist
It was pure joy watching your reaction. You got to watch the entire Star Wars saga in less than a year. Imagine how the Star Wars fans who have been following this story for over 44 years felt. I know I shed lot's of tears. Keep up the great reactions.
I'm one of them, still remember the hype around Phantom Menace being announced; though it could never live up the hype it had.
When Lando arrives with all the ships, I just hear Gary Oldman in Leon: "EVERYONE!!!"
Lol, that's good but all I hear is Sam in Endgame saying "On your left"
What do you mean everyone?
"This is from.... Matilda".
@@Mithinco EVVVVVVEERRRRYYYOOOOONNNEEEEEEE!!!
He don’t have time for that Mickey Mouse bull….
I remember reading some place, that the Scene with Han Solo was originally written for Lea's Force ghost, but Carrie's passing made them talk to Harrison Ford and convincing him on returning for one last scene, even though in the Star Wars Universe, Jedi's talking to their dead relatives was not a thing. Still, for a lot of us fans, watching Han's character one last time was very emotional.
I loved Carrie Fisher and I was very saddened by her passing. All the things she revealed about herself in Craig Ferguson's show were fantastic. She was so fun, positive, amazing, in the face of addiction, bipolar disorder and lost memories due to electroshock therapy, a true inspiration for a lot of us who complain so hard in the face of mild disappointment.
"I dont know how she mastered all this skills"
Dude, not even the writters know
especially the writers don't know
We literally see her training at the beginning, and it’s confirmed she trained with Leia and the sacred Jedi texts for over a year. Granted I definitely wish that we saw more of it and the movie’s pacing is a bit too fast, but it’s there
@@mr.moviemafia if you read the book 🙄 Leia didnt want to train as a Jedi, she literally had nothing to teach Rey
Plus Rey was way too op the first two movies, so why is she training anyway?
@@mr.moviemafia it's still stupid, Jedi train for their whole life, even the chosen one had to. Rey does everything in the first two movies without any training and then just runs around in a forest for a year and lifts super heavy rocks, can fly (wtf), heal ppl and beat Darth sidious who is one of the most, if not the most op character in Star wars
@@mr.moviemafia Shut. Up.
"Somehow Palpatine returned" 1000/10 writing...
LOL who'd he mate with!?!?!? holy moly
Well, the entire concept of artificial and controllable Snoke creation is explanation of how "somehow Palpatine returned"... 🤦♂️
@@J0rdan912 So I guess he could clone himself instead of Jango and take over 60 years before...
@@user-xx6vy9ri8p He couldn't. Palpatine was watching for that mythical ultimate "life force" power he mentioned in his story for Anakin about Darth Plagueis, so Palpatine can achieve it thanks to Anakin. Clones, technology, Snoke was only a workaround to survive and keep control over galaxy until two most powerful dark and light force users will rise again so Darth Sidious can finally steal it and live and rule forever.
What is so wrong about that line exactly? What was he supposed to say? He was to tell the others that Palpatine had survived and he had obviously no idea how. Just that he came back *somehow* .
Palpatine's son was a clone of himself, so he fortunately didn't mate with anyone.
@@rovhalt6650 That's not canon. At least, not yet. Pray it never becomes so.
I never understood why he called him his son because Snoke was just creation, so what earned his son the rights to be called his child
@@lostsoul4784 I suppose the thing is he never does.
Rey, on the other hand is useful. And unlike Snoke, she doesn't have 5 backups floating in tubes lol
There goes my idea for the line "lie back, and think of Alderaan."
"But...but you had Alderaan brutally destroyed."
"Precisley"
How are we suppoesd to know that from this movie? The average viewer is not going to read 20 books
Getting to watching you become immersed in this universe has been an absolute pleasure. Thanks for bringing us with you! I'm looking forward to joining you on more of your travels!
Also, I agree. Adam Driver did do a good job and Kyle was the most interesting character by the end of the series.
@MortalGamerDC1 85 did you come up with sad-ga all by yourself?
Palpatine: I am a genius. I transferred my essence to a failed clone of me, instead of creating a clone of Lord Vader or Skywalker's son for a healthier and younger body. And now with my 1000 Planetary Destroyers, which have no shields because I didn't reach the budget, I will rule the galaxy. I just hope I don't get stopped by a squad of space horses and destroy the command ship. Nor do I expect my granddaughter to pull out a second lightsaber while I throw my Force Lightnings at her and she pull hers "I am Iron Man" from her as she returns my lightnings to me and I keep shooting.
Should have opted for the 950 P.D. with shields-package instead...
I think he could only transfer his mind to a clone of himself.
Don't forget that all 1000 ships don't know where "up" is
24:25 would have been a quicker review tbh
@@Mokkari77
No, if Rey had followed through with the ritual sacrifice, then he intended to take over her body.
Imagine just how great a community you have on your channel that over the time it took her to watch all the films no one spoiled the ending and plot twists.
"I'm hoping for a change of direction"
"How about 15 changes of direction?"
No ugly crying here. You always have a reason, affected by a beautiful or sad scene or maybe by a loss or surprise plot twist. Your emotions are always real. It's one of the reasons I love taking these journeys with you.
You're gonna have a lot of negative comments here and I don't like this movie much but I'm still gonna give your video a watch.
Yeah..... I'm waiting for real hate comments 😭 Ill try not to cry too much
I hate this movie but I'm not going to hate people who feel differently about it.
@@VKunia Don't let them rob you of your joy. I am glad you loved the movie so much. It has it's issues but it also does a lot well.
@@VKunia No hate, but you only have so many tears in your life and you wasted quite a few on this film.
@To infinity and beyond... hardly better by a long shot. If it wasn't for the OT, there would never have been other trilogies. If you were a true Star Wars fan, you would be appalled at the treatment of beloved franchise characters, and any attempt to by others to change the franchise would be met with revulsion...like so many REAL fans were when this crap made it to the theaters.
"Now this is pod racing"... that had me cracking up so badly!;)
LMAO
That was so fun to watch your reaction to that. You were on an absolute rollercoaster. When Kylo died and you threw your tissue, I laughed so hard haha.
I think my favourite thing about The Rise of Skywalker is Chewbacca finally getting his medal. I didn't mind the kiss between Kylo and Rey, and I actually think they're both amazing characters. I just wish Kylo survived to make amends for his time as a villain.
For him to make amends wouldn't work with just about everyone in the Galaxy except Rey. He slaughtered many innocent people, and would likely be executed or gunned down.
im legit upset i cant see anymore of your star wars reactions. seeing it through your eyes again made me so happy and i straight up cried with you through this.
And to think, in the end - it was Jar Jar all along.
Before I saw the movie, I was hyped for more Palpatine, even if it undermined the whole saga. After I saw the movie, I wish I didn't get more Palpatine, and that they went with Darth Jar Jar instead.
Jar Jar Abrams.
And he killed sparky too! 😂
I admire your honesty.
There were cheers in the theater, and I cried just like you did at so many moments. I understand that a lot of people have hate about the “Disney Star Wars movies,” but I don’t share it. They are different movies written by different people, and they will naturally have different emphases and impacts.
Love your channel
they didnt even know what to emphases cuz they changed the director from the first movie to the second and in the third one they changed it again. They didnt even write all the triology before starting the first movie, so there is a tons of things that doesnt make sense and things that one director made that the other just ignored.
There’s a video edit of Rey seeing the ghost of palpatine instead at the end and she kills the old lady 🤣
Lol!
VKunia, guess you'll have to watch the animated series now, The Clone Wars.
She’s currently watching Mandalorion so she will probably watch it along with Rebels
The best Will be the last
@@marcindziedzic9701 Really crazy order 😆. I’m a nineties kid so for me it was episodes 1 to 6, Clone Wars since it came out, Rebels, Mandalorian, back to Clone Wars and now Bat h
@@marcindziedzic9701 So you mean KOTOR and KOTOR II right?
* insert plankton YEEEESSSSS *
9:41 He lost control of his temper and forgot about his plans to turn her to the dark side instead of killing her, according to the film's novelization. It was only after the crash that he realized this, and made a greater effort to keep his anger in check so as to not kill Rey in a fit of rage.
It was also because he was trying to push her and see what her power was capable of
Only 7 seasons of Clone Wars, 4 seasons of Rebels and a season of Bad Batch to go.
Can she just watch the Umbarra arc, Seasons,5-7 of TCW, and the Vader vs Ahsoka scene already? lol
@@muatra3651 no lol
How can you omit the Star Wars holiday Special and the 2 Ewoks movies? They are way better than the Rise of Fauxwalker.
when you said, "you're joking", seeing palp return, i am sure at least you weren't joking
The thing I find the most touching in the final trilogy is that the part of Lieutenant Connix was played by Billie Lourd. She is the real life daughter of Carrie Fischer so she has the memory of being able to work with her mother on her last project that featured her as her breakout character. It's a nice memory for her to have of her mother.
You now need to watch the SNL sketches of undercover boss with Adam Driver as Kylo Ren
Hilarious
Your referring to Palpatine’s throne room at the Sith Citadel as “Grandpa’s house” is sending me! 🤣🤣🤣
VKunia, Palpatine had this all planned out the events of the Prequels was him seeing if cloning was possible and it was his way to get into power, the events on the Original Trilogy was his rule, and the Sequels were him coming back into power but failing, he was behind the entire saga
Which is perfect, be it by design or accident.
Agreed. Hate it or love it, it actually makes sense for Palpatine to come back as it makes him the unifying main antagonist of the entire SW from start to end. All 3 trilogies end with him as the main villain.
The Skywalker family ultimately gave everything to save the galaxy. IMO it's only fitting that the name is carried on in tribute to the sacrifice that they all made. This was a phenomenal reaction.
I agree. And maybe in the future, instead of Jedi, we'll have an order of "Skywalkers".
Awww. I wanted to see her reaction to Chewy learning about Leia's death.
I think Ben's redemption was like Janja's in The Lion Guard season 3 premiere, and Ben's Sacrifice was just like what Darth Vader did. Ben chose to sacrifice himself to save Rey.
I’m so happy to see someone else genuinely enjoy this film. Kylo deserved better.
Kylo murdered SO many people. Just like Vader, there is no way he lives happily ever after.
@@mattmason8474 Yeah, he's not evil but he deserves nothing less than a death sentence. Vader however killed billions children and babies included.
Can't believe almost no reactors notice Wedge is back 😞
Wedge always being overlooked:( But he the goat
If you haven't read the books about him or seen a scene he's in within the last week, Wedge makes very little impression. Especially on casual fans or first time watchers.
It's because real fans didn't watch this film.
Actually I thought it was Anthony Daniels (C3PO)
"Rey, he's busy, hit him" 🤣🤣🤣
Palpatine ended up winning in the end his name continues to live while the skywalker blood line dies
Star Wars is NEVER over. Here is the Jedi who talked to Rey you will soon meet.
- Ahsoka Tano
Anakin Skywalker’s apprentice. She is a Togruta from the world Shili. She came a LONG way from the Battle of Christophsis, the Jedi Temple Bombing, and the Siege of Mandalore. After Order 66 and the rise of the Empire, she went by the codename “Fulcrum” and gave restricted Imperial information to the Rebel Alliance. She faced Vader on Malachor and realize the truth. But that won’t be the last Tano-Skywalker reunion.
- Luminara Unduli:
A Jedi Master from the planet Mirial, she is a devoted general in The Clone Wars.
- Kanan Jarrus
At age 13, Jedi Padawan Caleb Dume is forced into hiding after Order 66 is declared. He changes his name to Kanan Jarrus and decides he will take a stand to the Empire.
- Aayla Secura
A Twi’lek Jedi Master from the planet Ryloth, she is a courageous Jedi who served in The Clone Wars.
- Adi Gallia:
She is a Tholothian Jedi Master from Tholoth. She aided Generals Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi on some occasions.
When I heard that the Emperor would return, I completely lost the interest in this film.
The Dark Side of The Force is a pathway to MANY abilities some consider to be..... unnatural.
(To be honest, I didn't MIND that part too much... but I would have liked SOME kind of hint/explanation for it)
I would have preferred Sideous return not spoiled in the trailer and events... and more critically NOT IN THE OPENING CRAWL.
Just have Kylo feeling a call to The Dark, finding the Sith map and following it to Exegol and a big reveal is Sideous would have been a much better start to this movie.
@@5353Jumper They had to come with something to draw Star Wars fans back in. After the disasterous reception to TLJ, and the financial flop of Solo, they're choice to revive Palpatine and all that was purely a "We need as much fan service as we can, because we've already sunk a shit ton of money into this trilogy, and need a payday."
I lost interest after I watched TFA.
@@Jollyroger84103 it was a misguided spoiler though, no one saw this movie because they were curious about how Sideous returned. Some as OP suggests did not see it in theaters for that reason.
Really if you take out the Sideous spoiler (make it a surprise reveal) and the knife being a map pointer at-ter thingie, and the "fleet cannot launch due to poor design" it could actually be a pretty good movie. (Side stepping the topic of incontinuity within the trilogy)
5:45 perfect reaction to “somehow Palpatine returned”
a cool thing about palpatine is that its the same actor in all the movies, old ones, prequals and sequals, Ian McDiarmid , he is 79.
"sOmEhOw PaLpAtiNe reTuRnEd"
Lmao it's because they had basically no plan for this trilogy, well except for the entire sequel trilogy George Lucas had already written that they kinda just ignored lol
I mean in fairness, he also wrote the prequels which are mostly terrible besides Revenge of the Sith, and even that has a number of flaws
@@DavidBennet most of the flaws of the prequels stem from it's dialogue, but that's redeemed itself in recent years due to them all becoming memes. The sequels fail because of their clusterfucky story and things like TROS' incessant use of mcguffins or Rian Johnson's awful use of Luke Skywalker.
@@Hans-hy5jp i mean thats a pretty shitty defense of a movie lol. It hasn't been redeemed because of funny memes. It's become a joke. But there's also some pretty bad acting, horrible CGI. and attack of the clones is horribly written as a whole. The sequels are flawed too, they have those issues too, but Lucas isn't perfect. At all. Theres no guarantee his trilogy would be any better than the shit prequels. Honestly if there was one person to put in charge, its not Lucas. Its Filoni
@@DavidBennet I think the CGI is pretty good for the time, and tpm apparently had more practical fx than all of the OT combined. But I agree Lucas wasn't perfect when creating the prequels, Filoni definitely helped save them with his contribution via The Clone Wars despite its rough start.
@@Hans-hy5jp To each their own, some CGI was certainly good, like Anakin and Obi-Wans duel, but a lot just looked like a shitty video game. Most of Yoda vs Palpatine is just bad for that reason. Its honestly in Revenge of the Sith that I have the problem with the CGI the most. Such as every clone troopers armor being CGI. It looks bad.
Honestly I’m so happy to see that I wasn’t the only person that legitimately enjoyed this film for what it was
Me tooo... I thought it put a good end on the saga starting in 1977. I never could have guessed how it would all work out in my most psychic dreams.
This vid is a year old but I wanted to say thank you for your optimistic opinion on this movie, I watched it again since and have a new appreciation and have even started a lot of the series I hadn’t wanted to watch because of this reaction and I’m glad I did.
Thank you !
i discovered this channel a few days ago. Ive binged watched alot of your reactions. I love them Im glad theres someone like me who gets emotional and cries. Your reactions are so genuene and adorable!
Fun fact. "the pod race scene" in thus movie. Is actually made of reused footoge of the actual podrace scene of episode 1.
I've never heard that anywhere. Do you have a source?
@@phillyskyguy9535 yes all around the internet
Palpatine returning bascially negates the entire 6 movie arc for Anakin. The chosen one was a bust.
No it does not. It does not take anything away from Anakins redemption. And its thanks to Anakin and Ben and Rey were able to stop Palpatine, which means Anakin was still the chosen one.
@@Morten_Storvik
Anakin doesn't bring balance to the force due to this change, that undoes a major point of the 6 movies.
You can't just say "Well persons ABC helped way after he was dead to achieve it"
@@MrXMysteriousX Anakin literally says "Bring back the balance, Rey-- AS I DID."
The point is that the balance will need to be brought back more than once, and each time a new chosen one will be able to do so. The prophecy itself is applicable to more than one occurrence. It talks about something being thought to be destroyed returning, hatching like an egg (the Sith in Episode I; Darth Sidious in Episode IX) and that an unusually powerful force wielder, of atypical birth (Anakin: born of midichlorian manipulation; Rey: born of a clone of Palpatine) would be the one to destroy this resurgence.
The Chosen One prophecy is intentionally up for debate in Star Wars lore to demonstrate how relativity can affect interpretation. The Jedi believed that the Force in its organic state was the light side, meaning that bringing balance to it required obliterating the dark. The Sith, and specifically Sidious, believed the opposite. The Mortis gods (and those who aligned with their interpretation, like the Bendu and, for a time, Luke Skywalker during his time on Ach-To) believed that light and dark needed to be equal to achieve true balance.
TL;DR - There are multiple ways to look at the chosen one prophecy and what it means to bring balance to the Force, even within the canon itself, but that doesn't undo the importance of Anakin's sacrifice in Episode VI. And that was the case before Episode IX and is still the case after.
@@Progger11 i'm not refuting his sacrifice was not important.
Obviously he saved Luke and in terms of himself redeemed himself.
However, he cannot be said to have brought balance to the force if Palpetine via clones etc was still around, likewise for Snoke and if its only temporarily balanced (which it was) its not worth having a prophecy about that part.It'd be about the end, namely Ben and Rey (the chosen two, if you will)
"Bring balance back to force like i did" was just JJs attempt at cutting off the real criticism he's undone the prophecy ahead of time and ignores what we can objectively see.
Did Anakin completely stop the Sith when it was 1-6 : Yes
Did Anakin completely stop the Sith 1-9 :No
Oh, i'm sure you'd go with "But Ben and Rey" but thats a continuation and a continuation tacitly admits it was NOT STOPPED, which means balance was never achieved.
You can't honestly expect an ancient prophecy was fulfilled regarding balance if that balance didn't last a considerable time likewise if the prophecy is you stopping something yet your grandkid actually did it, it'd be wrong to assume the chosen one was Anakin, it'd be about Ben or Rey and couldn't be about both anyway because "chosen one" specifically means one.
And as for your "the prophecy applies more than once" thing, thats just you pulling things outta your ass.
Prophecies apply once and you can't keep having "multiple chosen ones" the clue is the damn name "Chosen *ONE*
If it was meant as you describe the prophecy would be worded different.
So in 1-8s framework its either:
The prophecy was wrong
Or
Anakin wasn't the chosen one but Rey or Ben is (which would be moronic because 1-6 was written independent to them)
You can't square that hole dude, no matter how you play around with it to defend these trainwreck movies.
As for "keeping it balanced" Sure, keeping the force balanced would be an ongoing thing but its a world apart from being the one to balance it.
It's like Peace, yes ,we all do our part to maintain it but the hero had to get that peace and considering its "chosen one" not "everyone and their mother" you should admit the truth they messed with a key part of the lore and it can't be reconciled with the pre-existing prophecy of 1-6 even if they hang a lantern on the obvious by having Anakin address it.
@@MrXMysteriousX Thanks for reminding me why I rarely bother to engage with this fandom.
Palpatine is so strong, in the extended universe he was able to create black holes all on his own. His powers are literally unmatched in every way
This may sound weird, but thank you so much for sticking true to your feelings and weather you like or dislike these movies. The Star Wars community can be a little bit scary for how they hate on people for their opinions. Weather someone dislikes or likes any of the star wars movies is fine, and there are valid points to like or dislike them. But the community can be very hateful, and even how they told you to try and avoid this trilogy by Disney. Thank you for standing strong and being awesome and just enjoying a viewing experience. Also your commentary is just fantastic! Also your editing is just perfect, Well Done!
Rey being a Palpatine being unexpected... I'm pretty sure someone in the writer's room pulled that out of their ass at the last moment. 😆. Because in one of the earlier movies Kylo told her her parents were nobodies.
I shit you not, that's exactly what happened! It changed numerous times, even in the middle of filming. I recall Daisy Ridley saying Rey was a Kenobi, a Skywalker, a nobody.... & finally, a Palpatine.
And you believed him. The bully, Kylo Ren who practically talked his father into stabbing himself and was a millimeter away from proton torpedoing his own mother... and you fools took his word. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
John Williams hints that he thought she was a Palpatine with her theme mixing well with the Emperor's theme, and that she was linked to Kylo too. Seems the only person who knew the story from the off, was the composer!
"She looks like she's in Daft Punk" lol she really does. I enjoyed this reaction much more than the actual movie.
omg you throwing your tissue up in the air when ben dies is such a mood
Chewie breaking down upon learning of Leia's death just damn killed me. All his humans were gone! (his first ones anyway)
Honest to god your commentary makes this movie actually digestible god bless you!!
*your
LMAO Thank you Tristan that means a lot ❤
I, too, enjoyed watching this so much more with Vicky. Also, that the movie was just 30 minutes this time might have been a factor.
@@tristramcoffin926 I enjoyed it the first time at the cinema. When I saw where they were going at the start I just switched off my brain and went with it - and I had a fun time. Thats the best way I find to approach the sequels.
It is a good movie if you don’t go in with too many fan-based ideas on where you want it to go.
It has plot holes and some over the top aspects, but so do all of the movies.
"I knew Kylo was the good guy..."
Sure...he slaughtered Luke's students because Luke attacked him, killed his father and his mother's friend because they reminded him who he is, was responsible for destruction of 5 planets, but he was a good guy...sure.
Repent and all is forgiven!
I mean, anakin did worse and made the right decision in the end.
@@camerapunk4109 That doesn't change that he was a villain.
Exactly. Kylo is not a "good guy." But you could argue that he's the protagonist of the trilogy. His dying in the end is appropriate.
@@Progger11 If he is the protagonist, who is his antagonist? Palpatine? He doesn't even fight him and decided to confront him only at last 15 minites...Rey? That's clearly not what was intended.
Rae is the emperor now, as he said kill me and i will inhabit you. She total steals everything from Luke his sunset, his farm and his name.
they should have made her eyes shift yellow as she said Rey skywalker and the force ghosts should have disappeared as palpatine's theme played
Then 10, 11, and 12 could have been about Finn and Poe trying to save her and get palpatine out
Poor Anakin is probably screaming about Rey burying his lightsaber in the sand
you have no idea how much this reaction warms my heart. as someone who really likes this movie and all the sequels it's disheartening to have the majority of discussion about them be negative. i'm glad you enjoyed the movie like i did you really made my day.
Yikes 😬
My "friends" ditched me the night of the release of 9. ( I have seen Ep 1-3 and 7-9 on their opening nights.) I have been following your star wars journey, and I finally got someone to experience the finale the same way I did. I can't thank you enough. Signed, a Star Wars nerd.
I feel the same way man!
So great to find another Star Wars fan! It’s such an important series to me, so to see someone go through the movie gauntlet and come out loving it brings a smile to my face! Welcome to the club, and may the force be with you!
wow... a star wars fan, thats so rare to find. Its not like its the most popular movie franchise ever and everybody has seen it. Also who calls himself a SW Fan and like Ep9... ugh.
@@SovermanandVioboy God who pissed on your cereal?
Thank you for that journey! It was very interesting to see you reacting to the skywalker saga while you watched it for the first time, thank you for that experience! It's very nice that you became a fan of this saga, I really liked it! I wish you a lot of fun with mandalorian! ✌️
7:54 "Now this is pod racing" lol
People are going to come into here and be negative, and to a degree they have a point. There were way too many things going against it (Carrie's death, the negative reaction to Last Jedi and the apparent active attempt to push back against it, the reason they brought back Palpatine and linked her to Rey, the fact that they had to spend time in supplementary materials trying to make it all work when it oh so very obviously doesn't) that it was always going to fight an uphill battle.
Or simpler: some fans didn't get their own dream movie or was too deep in expectations/past memories so they can't stop butthurting and spreading hate everywhere like a small babies who didn't get a candy. Usual stuff, not worth to take it seriously. If you check IMDB or something you can see that literally every episode have their own group of haters.
@@J0rdan912 I don't even know what my ideal sequel trilogy would look like, just that it wouldn't resemble the inconsistent mess we got. I'm never someone who critiques something based on what it isn't, I do not allow expectations to control how I feel about the merits or lack thereof for any film. TFA was derivative, TLJ needed a script doctor, TROS was written by a committee trying to maximize pandering without care to the characters or meaning to their actions.
I don't have "my ideal sequel trilogy" in mind and I didn't have any expectations other than I hoped that the movies wouldn't be garbage. Unfortunately, the trilogy indeed turned out to be horseshit. But hey! At least it's finally over now. They seriously need to come up with some better stuff in the future. :)
@@TigerNightmare It's always was inconsistent. Episodes 1-4-7, 2-5-8, 3-6-9 feels same for me. And in my book 2-5-8 was the weakest movies. But I know people who absolutely loves second movies in every trilogy. Mine favorites are first episodes, while most of my friends loves thirds. As always it's just a matter of taste.
Ben solo was the only character who fulfilled plagus power of keeping ones he cared about from dying.
It has been such a pleasure to rewatch star wars with a youthful fan and sharing all the emotional moments, good and bad. Star Wars means a lot to me and I love sharing these experiences with other fans. Thank You for your heart it was beautiful to see on display through this whole experience.
In extended canon, Palpatine created clones so that he could continue his rule forever. None of them could contain his spirit and power though. When he was killed by Vader, he transferred to one of these clones. Another of these clones, Palpatine set free to continue the bloodline, and this is Rey's father. Rey had the power to take Palpatines spirit, and so when he summoned them back, imperfect clone-dad defected and set her free.
While IX does have some pacing issues, and it needed a better setup from the previous movies, I do really like IX. I really love the contrast between the light and dark in this movie (light side = self sacrifice/healing and dark side = stealing life force).. and I especially loved the redo of that scene from VII with Ben and Han, where he got a chance to make the right choice.
It’s so sad because TFA set the trilogy up perfectly but with the director changes, the trilogy was doomed. RJ took an entirely different turn with TLJ and Abrams tried so hard to undo some of the stuff he did and also did things that seemed like fan service like Rey and Kylo kissing and Chewie finally getting his medal. I still enjoyed the trilogy especially TFA but so much more could’ve been from it
@@DDDiego Still TFA had a lot of problems due to episode 6 too and it was way too reliant on nostalgia
@@DDDiego I think the biggest issue with 7/8/9 is down to the producers treating them as separate films rather than a trilogy. They should have ensured there was an overaching plan for all three before it was even started, so whoever directed 8 would know what plot points they needed to cover by the end of their film, and which things couldn't be changed because they were needed for 9. The MCU have effectively been doing that for years so it's hardly a novel concept.
“This man who ruined everything is still here, he’s still alive? How did he survive?”
“A good question….for another time.”
This movie is beautiful. Ben finished what Anakin was trying to do with Padmé and save the one he loves. The secret of eternal life Palpatine was looking for, is compassion and love: That's what Ben did. The Emperor failed and he was going to fail forever. The Skywalker family destroyed him turning his heir into the last Skywalker. ❤👏🏻✌🏻 So glad you love this film.
J.J. Abrams admitted there were no plans for this trilogy.
Give me the direct quote in which he admitted that. He actually said, _"I do think there's nothing more important than having a plan."_
Peter Jackson had no plan completely set in stone when he made LOTR either. That`s kinda detrimental to creativity. Which is kinda important when creating an adaption.
@@Morten_Storvik Unlike the LOTR films, the Star Wars Saga films are not adaptions. They are original works.
No plan and no vision. The original trilogy also never had a complete plan, but what it did have that this trilogy didn't was a vision.
@@kringerman396 How do you know both trilogies weren't 'completely planned'? What's the difference between a plan and a vision?
This movie actually works really well with The Last Jedi. I know TLJ is a huge bummer, but the highest highs of both TFA and TRoS only work because of the lows and tests TLJ present. You have to remember, Luke learns of the real horrors his father committed (younglings, innocents) before becoming Vader (and the realities of the Jedi that failed him) while dealing with Ben, AND Palpatine influencing him just like Anakin with self fulfilling visions. So much of this film works because TLJ sets it up.
I love both, they are kind of antithetical of each other, TLJ asks why things are important while TRoS is the answer. I think they are like the epilogue to the original trilogy. Like when the hobbits in the book return to the Shire after destroying the ring and Saruman had set up shop; it's like their own personal test of how do we know we are safe after our heroes are gone.
Palpatines return has been in the backstory for decades. it's first not so subtly hinted at in RotS with his Opera storytelling with Anakin. "the dark side of the force is a pathway to many abilities some would consider to be unnatural" is a direct callback to that. So it's Sith Cloning. The Clone Wars, Bad Batch, Rebels and Mandalorian have all explored various aspects of what that means. It's all really cool.
I agree. Upon rewatching the entire ST, I see TROS as acknowledging, enhancing, and fulfilling everything TLJ started and established. Wasn't noticeable initially due to TROS' breakneck pacing. Didn't see anything as being retconned. Also, too many viewers actually forgot how TLJ started and ended they piled on TROS for seemingly trying to "undo" TLJ.
Personally, it was a mistake making rey a palpatine because i wanted her to be a nobody. No important family, just Rey.
@@19Rena96 I see both Skywalker and Nobody as true. Rey Palpatine is not true to her in any way other than arbitrary blood (which is only something Nazi types think that power comes from blood). She is a Skywalker in her Legacy, but to herself she is Rey Nobody. To her she is just the same as Finn Poe and that old woman that comes to the farm at the end (that I am assuming is Cammie). She carries on the Skywalker legacy and brings that to all which is kind of the point of the whole franchise. It really says that any nobody can be a mighty powerful Jedi and that is far more powerful a message IMO.
And that is very intentional, if you think she is meant to be Palpatine, that honestly says more about the opinion holders integrity to read a story than anything. Her father was cast aside and became nobody, Rey was even further removed and nobody knew who she was. Stripped of all name, Palpatine's only true legacy in Rey is the false self doubt that fascists' cling to in order to kill your soul..
"Luke learns of the real horrors his father committed (younglings, innocents) before becoming Vader (and the realities of the Jedi that failed him) while dealing with Ben"
Wait, did I miss something?????
I have the Rise of Skywalker Novelization it Explains that as Palpatine was falling to his death on the Death Star he transfers his Life Force into a Clone Body on a Distant planet and that his son who is Rey's Father is actually a failed Clone of Palpatine as it did not have the force, Snoke is also a failed Clone who Palpatine was controlling long distance via the force
Your reaction at 13:53 is absolutely perfect because it almost seemed forced and genuine at the same time and I love it lol 😂
I am sure that there are going to be a lot of negative comments, and I just wanted to say that I’m glad that you enjoyed episode 9, even if I hate the sequel trilogy. One of my main criticism of the sequels is that they are aimed at the casual audience, and that they mainly ignored the hardcore fan base. One of the best things about Star Wars is the fact that it’s an entire galaxy with its own unique history, reading and watching the evolution of the society was always a delight, but with the sequel trilogy, Disney settled with having a bunch of lightsabers, cool ships and explosions without expanding the universe and lore. The way events transpire in the sequels is illogical, to me there is no sense of progression, things seen to happen just because they do, and we aren’t really given an explanation, and while Disney did try to clear things up in my opinion it just made things messier. Fortunately, Disney seems to be moving in the right direction with the franchise and I’m excited to see what’s next
@To infinity and beyond... mediocre troll bait... hold the L!
@To infinity and beyond... Just accept it. The sequels were an absolute joke and a disappointment regardless of your subjective opinions. How can you possibly judge others when you mostly favor a trilogy that was not planned out whatsoever? The sequels were full of so many plot holes whether you believe it or not. Quit being a baby and stop judging someone for simply just commenting their own opinion. Disney took such an amazing franchise and threw it right in the bin. Get your head out of your a**
@To infinity and beyond... Clearly you're the fake star wars that doesn't care about the prequels🤷🏾♂️
@@genethebook4213 obvious troll is obvious. And sad...😪
@To infinity and beyond... You will 'literally eat another person alive' if they don't choose their words more carefully? Are you trying to antagonize others or discredit yourself?
“….Unlimited Power!!!!”
“He was a power so strong, he learned to create life. He also found a way to keep those from dying” (paraphrasing)
~ Palpatine, “Revenge of the Sith”
"No way one man (palpatine) is this powerful"
*laughs in Darth Nihilus eating entire planets*
That throw of the Kleenex was priceless and so hilarious in that moment, like I can’t take it anymore!!! Lol
One of the most lovely reactions I've ever seen to this movie. The Skywalker family would be proud of you.
May the Force be always with you, VKunia.
I'm surprised that I got emotional again at the scenes that got me the first time. When all of the ships came to fight, I almost cried. When I heard all of the jedi talking to Rey to get up, I got emotional. At the end whay Rey said Skywalker, I got emotional. I absolutely loved this movie. It really should have been 4 hours long to digest and reflect on the plot and its implications.
This is in the top 4 for me. A New Hope, Empire, Force Awakens and this one.
Not a Skywalker until she loses a limb. And even after that, she will never be a true Skywalker. We don't have plot armor
@@mister_silent6 ahem, Leia, Padmé, and Shmi never lost a limb. Seems like it's only the ones who were blonde lost a limb. (I said blonde because Luke was like a dirty blonde and same with Anakin in The Phantom Menace)
@@Scar-Predator its a meme. Besides, her biological name is Palpatine so...
Visits to grandpa's are the worst 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I actually died. Subscribed!
This isn't star wars. It's a piece of goddamn expensive fanfiction
Not a big fan of the movie, but I love Star Wars and there were a lot about the movie that I did like. I do wish it was either longer or made into two movies to help with pacing. Watching your vids have made me enjoy Star Wars even more because it reminds me of when I would watch it in VHS in my basement
True. 15 minutes more would have made quite the difference.
Same. I did like and enjoy the movie, just felt it could've easily been about 30 to 40 minutes longer.
haha I have cried with you through this. Thank you. I'm an old time fan. Loved star wars since the age of 4. I'm 32 now.
I had my own redemption from drug abuse 5 years ago, and Kylo Rens journey remind me of this. Something so dark can become light. Thank you for inspiring me with your reactions.
I wish you all the best.
22:20, it doesn't surprise me that Sidious is that powerful! He is literally a 117-year-old Sith Lord. He spends all of his free time practicing his force abilities.
Yellow is the sign of a Jedi Sentinel, who focuses less on combat and more on force-assisted actions and diplomacy.
Don't let anyone talk you out of loving this. I suspect some people will try. Your reactions are funny and seem so heartfelt. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Will❤
@@VKunia: Nope. I saw The Force Awakens, but after that I saw @Th3birdman's sin videos of CinemaSins' "Sin" videos of the "Sequel Trilogy", and honestly, by making it from the start of Phantom Menace, to the end of Return of the Jedi, you pretty much made the entire *True Star Wars* journey.
@@JadenMoon1475 No
Nope sequels are trash
@@cheeznipz8891 Doesn't mean they aren't part of the full series
5:43 There you have it, folks. The ultimate answer to every question in this trilogy: ''Somehow...''
Interesting to see a younger person who hasnt been a Star Wars fan for decades watch and think these films arent trash. Its a rarity.
So Poe is Capt America when you parallel this to Endgame, and Kylo’s Iron Man. Except Kylo killed Han, so he’s dead to us anyway.
The sequels aren't my fav but I still enjoyed them. Please don't let a lot of the negative comments change how you feel. I absolutely loved your reaction and how you accept that she is a skywalker. A lot of people don't accept it and can be jerks about it. I love your videos and reactions....now keep on with the clone wars, rebels, bad batch lol. The animated episodes are short so you can do like 3-4 at a time in one video if that helps.
Rey stole Anakin's lightsaber, Luke's X-wing, Han's ship, sacred Jedi texts, Poe's droid, Kylo's Force abilities (no joke), their victory over Palpatine and the name Skywalker. She literally buried their legacy in sand. What an amazing freaking character, who just takes everything from original heroes without earning it...
There was a way they could have handled that delicately. Shame they didn't.
Well,..she is Palp's granddaughter you know.
@@lookingforwookiecopilot Good old Palps...
@@user-xx6vy9ri8p "Good" is a point of view. :D
Wow that's a dumb rant
The part when u made them grandpa jokes i was rolling on the floor fr XD
PS: i love your positive mindset and ur passion in watching these movies, looking forward to more content :3
I'm really glad you liked the Star Wars Journey! Thank you so very much. May the force be with you!
