Honest trailers: The Rise of Skywalker
- Thread starter Veelk
- Start date
Poor Luke, the senile old man got his identity stolen by Rey.
Luke Nobody is dumb for throwing away his saber in ROTJ, instead of completing his and Vader's character arcs he should have fought Sheev with two sabers and waited until deus ex force ghosts turned him into the jedi avatar. What an idiot, maybe Sheev wouldn't have the time to jump into a new body.

Yes! You just need to buy the visual dictionary to find out!
Masterful storytelling
And in that same dictionary, we find out that Chewie is Apolitical and only fights the fascists because his friends do.
Well obviously. You think two black characters would just be in a SW movie like that unrelated?
I cannot believe they introduced an entirely new character who was a former Stormtrooper to push home the message that "STORMTROOPERS BAD" when FINN WAS FORMER STORMTROOPER.
Oh give me a break Disney.

TROS is 10 levels of dogshit on its own. With the EU shit, it becomes 50 levels.
Ahh damn that's a good point. I too really like their Honest Trailer Commentaries and would be sad if they don't do some sort of version of it for this.
That's really not the problem. The movie itself made it clear enough that there is a high possiblity that this is the case with their last scene together. Not everything needs to be explicitly spelled out. The problem is...that they are father and daughter at all. It would have been even worse if they spelled it out explicitly in the movie because that fact is just so hilariously contrived and nonsensical.
With all the "X is the daughter of Y and granddaughter of Z while also being the brother of K" they manage to find ANOTHER character who just has to be related to one of the Retro 4. And it adds nothing to anything since it is the first and last time they meet in the movie. They should have cut that scene completely.
sometimes I wonder why they bother with having a story team when nothing remains consistent lol
Also regarding Jannah, this is the bit from the visual dictionary:
Supposedly the novelization would have made it clear that Lando's daughter was Jannah, but I'm looking at the page where the scene takes place and nothing different is there. We get the dialogue (Where are you from, General?", "What about you kid?", etc.) and then he came to a realization on what he could do:
Yes, according to leaks the two being family was at one point part of the story. But that seems to have been cut, and probably fairly early on (early enough for it be vague in every other expanded media), and from the reception of the idea I don't think it's something they will go back to.

Surprised they didn't bring up the whole "I am... [thing]" similarity between this and Endgame
Because no one wants EU material to compensate for information that should have been in the movie in the first place
I still blame TLJ for this mess. Such a waste of a movie where nothing happens.
I blame TLJ haters for this reactionary trash movie, this is exactly what they wanted.
I disliked this film so much it made me appreciate the Last Jedi way more. I was extremely disappointed by TLJ.
