Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (J.J. Abrams, December 20, 2019) Movie • Page 36

People care about that legacy stuff way too much. It doesn't even matter in the grand scheme of things.

 

Not everything needs to be the best/worst/most important ever. People need to relax and enjoy the damn movies. My word.

 

Exactly. Legacy can be argued about on some phone app by kids after I'm dead who cares. Hah.

 

TLJ and RO are extremely pretty films

 

louder please

 

Okay then. Any thoughts on kylo turning or not turning? Think it will happen? Do you want it to happen or not happen?

 

sees the light but is held accountable and punished by fate

 

I don't want to get caught up in speculating what I want or don't want, this is exactly what led to people's insane reactions to TLJ, they spent years building up the plot they wanted and then it didn't happen.

I want the writers to write the best possible story they can, and I want JJ to direct the shit out of it. I am confident both will happen.

 

I'll admit I probably got too wrapped up in the best ever/worst ever aspect of TLJ debates sometimes, but yea people need to relax. If you go into the movie thinking this has to be the best movie ever, you're probably not going to have much fun.

 

that doesnt mean we should just not talk about Star Wars anymore. Thats half the fun. Just because a lot of people get attached to their own vision doesnt mean everyone has to.

 

Rey pushes Kylo off a cliff and then he's eaten alive my 5,000 hungry porgs. This is the only ending I will accept.

 

Reminds me of the lion king I like it.

 

speculation is fun lol

 

Can someone edit that GOT gif with Daenerys Targaryen riding that dragon out of the Coliseum to Rey hopping on a giant fire-breathing porg and flying away? That's actually the ending we need.

 

would you rather fight 1 porg sized rancor or 1000 rancor sized porgs

 

I think you mixed this up lol

 

A Rancor-sized Porg

 

but Ill still go the 1000 rancor sized Porgs and cuddle with them all

 

I know this is the wrong answer in terms of me living, but 1000 rancor sized porgs. Rancors are gross, I don't care if it's only porg sized. I'd rather die in the wings of cuteness.

 

Im shocked porg furries arent a thing

 

i'm on my work computer so i'm definitely not gonna google it but can we be certain that they aren't a thing?

 

Its so weird. They did leave a crack in the Kylo-being-redeemed door with him not killing Leia. If they were to redeem Kylo I just assume that thered have to be a bigger baddie stronger than him where hed sacrifice himself to kill him. If they do end up tying back the Sith being able to keep themselves alive by re-introducing Snoke/Palpatine/PLagueis (dont kill me for hypothisizing this) thats the only way I could see that.

Its just a weird thing. I feel like he has to not be redeemed because hes slaughtered kids and weve seen him kill Han, and they cant do the same thing they did with Vader, but its hard to imagine not ending the Skywalker saga on such a depressing note with the last in the skywalker being the evil terrorizing the galaxy and then dying to end the movie.

I think the thing I want the most is keeping him bad, and somehow going into how he got this way. I think so much can be mined from the parenting angle. The fact that his parents sent him away to be trained with Luke and following a religion rather than keeping him and just being his parents and loving him. Only thing with that is that itd be hard to give the opposite perspective from Leia or Hans. I love not knowing what the hell is going to happen!

 

I don’t think Kylo dying would be a depressing end to the saga. This isn’t really even the “Skywalker saga” anymore, it’s about the new folks and the roles they’re playing in this new fight in the galaxy. Who’s to even say that this film is the last we see of Rey, Finn, Poe, etc., I think you handicap the film by saying something can’t or shouldn’t happen just because it’s the ending of the Skywalker Saga. If anything the Skywalker saga ended in the last movie. Kylo isn’t a Skywalker. He’s a Solo or whatever. He carries Luke’s bloodline but, I don’t think that makes the “Skywalker Saga” about him now.


I think it would probably really annoy me more if they kept the whole “he’s good he’s bad no he’s good no he’s bad” thing going in this movie as well.

 

Agreed. That is one of the biggest themes in Star Wars and appropriately so considering choosing light and dark side is a beautiful analogy to real life, but I feel like hes made his choice. Reys made hers. So I dont think its going to be a "torn apart" type thing. I think if anything it will be an epiphany type thing by the end.

 

Rogue One is still my favorite of the new ones stylistically. Had a great sense of impending doom to it.
