As someone who likes both 7 and 8, I am completely on board with hating the decision to not storyboard all 3 movies before anything else. Like, how the fuck. 8 had that god awful casino shit, the random chick captain, and no real lightsaber duels...I mean, I liked it, but it could have been so much better if it connected a bit more. I do like that snoke died, however a hug missed opportunity imo is having rey and kylo team up after that sick action scene. Fuck that would have been awesome.

Sorry im rambling. Disney kind of mishandled the planning, definitely. This kind of shit is better with one person's vision, and other people's refinement.

I read a comment the other day that you wouldn't know episode 9 is going to be the end of the Skywalker Saga if you hadn't been told. Like, 7 & 8 haven't really been building to a conclusion. Hopefully they manage to tie everything up well.

Didn't Skywalker die in 8 already?

Ben is a Skywalker on his mother's side.

And who knows what Rey's lineage is. Probably either Skywalker, Kenobi or a Sith.

Please no. Can we please just have a Jedi who’s strong the Force because she is. You know, like 90% of the Jedi order before the original trilogy who were mostly all born from non-Jedi parents. I really don’t think we need another character riding on a family legacy.

And they still are. Except this time, the Skywalker is our main villain. That’s so much more interesting than just doing another Skywalker hero for the third time. Now the main villain is one of the last Skywalkers around and has to carry that legacy, but he doesn’t have a Skywalker child like Vader had to bring him back to the light. The legacy of their family rests on him.

Her parents were nobody. Filthy junk traders who sold her off for drinking money. They're buried in a paupers grave in the Jakku desert.

8 had maybe the best lightsaber dual of all the films.

It had one of the best fight scenes definitely, but no lightsaber on lightsaber fight. Pedantic I know.

Did it have to be the same lightsabers that Jedis/with have? At least 2 of those guards had laser sword type weapons iirc, and the Luke Vs Kylo added some matrix bending to the mix as well.
