    Well, there is one defence for The Rise Of Skywalker I keep hearing and sadly, it’s wrong. Should JJ Abrahms or Rian Johnson be held responsible for how the once-loved Star Wars saga ended? I think it’s pretty clear who is to blame for The Rise Of Skywalker failure.

      @Excelsior Same way that Boba fett isn't a mandalorian. Jedi is a creed, a way of life. A Jedi is not just someone with force powers. Luke wasn't a Jedi either until episode 6. Watch Luke in episode 5 to see Luke make every mistake a Jedi would not.
      Not to mention, the sequels never go into the biggest lesson a Jedi has to learn. The seductive power of the dark side. It's the whole reason the Jedi train. Instead Rey is constantly screaming and wielding her saber first in every confrontation. Watch her stab Kylo in RoS with such anger and tell me I'm wrong. That's not a Jedi. I don't care how much floating you do. A Jedi never wields their saber in offense. They are the last to turn theirs on. Even Vader knew this in Empire.
      Watch Vader in Empire, he was in complete control, while he watch luke make every mistake. Not surprising considering Vader was once a Jedi. Well, training to be one. Vader ultimately failed his training. But he understood the training Why do you think the counsel didn't grant him Jedi Master in episode 3?
      George spent 6 movies explaining this, yet you act like it's some big secret. Throughout all 3 sequels, i never once felt that Rey could turn to the dark side. It was never brought up as the threat it should be. Yet, she does everything a Jedi is trained not to.
      The Screaming she does in every movie is in anger, yet it's never shown how anger leads to the dark side. She's a Jedi as much as a kid in school dissecting a frog is a doctor.
      I could keep going, but you should have the idea by now. Plenty of great videos on TH-cam you can watch if you still aren't convinced.

      @@PoopaChallupa good point. a big point of the originals was the danger of the allure of the dark side. In the first film, it's mentioned how Darth Vader was seduced by its power. Then it was more explored in Empire with Luke confronting a vision of himself in Vader's armor on Dagobah suggesting what could happen to him. Then in the 3rd film he is tempted to turn ironically for good reasons first to save his doomed friends from the Emperor's trap then his sister from being corrupted. It's then we see him give into his anger and physically defeat Vader until he stops himself at the last moment and rejects the Dark Side. We are supposed to understand he came very close to falling to the Dark Side.
      Rey on the other hand never has this temptation thruout the series despite showing signs that she could easily fall to the Dark Side (especially out of hubris). Even the dark side place in Dagobah shows nothing of this sort. Nor is the Emperor interested in turning her to the Dark Side as he was with Vader, Luke, and Kylo. If she killed him like he wanted at first, he'd have possessed her like some Biblical demon whereas if Luke did Luke would have surrendered to the Dark Side. That internal struggle was completely absent in Rey which is yet another reason why her character is so boring and unrelatable.

      @@RoninDave I completely agree. The movies built zero tension and the RoS was the worst offender. Not only did they undo Anakin's story arc, they failed to make us believe there was any chance of Rey turning to the dark side. TLJ is a whole other problem. Why continue the Skywalker story(which already concluded) if you're just going to crap on the OG characters and replace them with substandard, undeveloped characters...
      They should have done 1 of 2 things, either use Lucas' story for future Skywalker series, or do your own storyline. Disney should have made something completely separate from Skywalker. Instead of cashing in on nostalgia and member berries.

      Jar Jar: Goes from a gungan who was kicked out of his home town to a senator (I think, something like that anyway) who had to make meaningful choices and eventually had a hand in giving over power to palpatine. In other words, actually has an arc and contributes to the plot.
      Rey: Starts out as a mary sue with a personality that makes Boss Nass seem like a deep character.
      Goes into TLJ as an edgy teen who is actually a fully grown adult who disrespects and literally assaults one of the galaxy's greatest ever heroes.
      Ends up in ROS with the personality of a sith, yet is "All of the jedi" and eventually steals Luke's identity and home, after fulfilling palpatine's promise of her killing him, which should have caused her to be possessed by him or whatever bullshit JJ was selling at the time.

    If you want Hux as a spy who "just wants Kylo Ren to loose", have him working for Palpatine. In that case, if you want to bring Palpatine back, have Hux be the one to do it. And maybe have Hux selectively leak to the resistance because Palpatine wants both the resistance and Kylo's first order gone. It's still not great but it's Citizen Kane compared to what JJ delivered (let's be honest, every movie that isn't Shamalan's Last Airbender movie is) being that it builds on the Kylo/Hux rivalry from TLJ in a logical way. Hux is the non-force user who wants to be emperor (seen when he was pulling his blaster on Kylo), if you want to bring Palpatine back Hux needs to be integral to it. The setup is actually there for it if you want that direction but JJ took the easy way out since he does bad remakes poorly disguised as sequals, and dammit his episode 9 was going to be a bad remake of Return of the Jedi whether it made sense or not.

      Also, there is this misconception that Disney is the one responsible for the terrible writing of the sequel trilogy. No, it's the fault of the actual writers of most of those movies: JJ Abrams, Rian Johnson, and Chris Terrio.

      @lluewhyn 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I disagree to some extent. I think Rian did have some good ideas, but they were either executed horribly or inappropriate for the middle chapter of the trilogy. The critical analysis of the war between the Jedi and the Sith was actually a really good idea for the sequel trilogy as a whole, and would flow well with how the prequels showed the Jedi being arrogant and flawed. However, apart from a single line delivered from absolutely the wrong character (Kylo) about it being time to move beyond the Jedi and Sith, the idea goes nowhere. It should have been Luke that discovered that truth and made him the one to look for a new path forward, and this should have rolled into the trilogy's themes as a whole. Obviously, the trilogy has no themes or cohesiveness, which is a complete waste.
      Also, the ending where the heroes are decimated but triumphant, the bad guys have triumphed militarily but have been thoroughly humiliated and revealed how pathetic they are, and signs of hope with the force "awakening" in new heroes would actually have been a great ending to the trilogy as a whole. As in, the heroes may have lost this battle, but you know that they will win the war. However, having this be done in the middle film means there's no anticipation at all for watching the next film (as this video shows), because the villains have been undercut to the point where they are no longer a credible threat. It's like ending The Empire Strikes back with Vader pooping himself after Luke rejects his offer and Palpatine tripping over his own robes and bonking his head- you no longer care about the heroes defeating these villains.

    The emperor's return was actually part of the legends series of stories in which it explains that the Emperor has been cloning himself for thousands of years in order to beat death, he uses the force along with some tech to merge his consciousness with the clones. Also the deaths of the original characters actually had more to do with the actors preferance than anything else, Harrison Ford has said many times he though Ham should've died aged ago.

    This might sound like I'm nitpicking, but it actually bothers me that throughout the sequel trilogy, the word “lightsaber” is only used twice! Disney calls it a “laser sword” or “saber”, which really takes away the mystical qualities of the weapon. Also, referring to a lightsaber as a “saber” significantly reduces how unique and special it is. “Saber” just makes it sound like a lightsaber is no different from any other sword. Just my opinion but for some odd reason this bothers me.

Go back and watch the Indiana Jones movies, Back to the Future, Empire Strikes Back, Ghostbusters, etc. These are really well crafted entertainment/spectacles.

      The cuts where they remove the needless alien/droid shenanigans make it so much more watchable.

No one was fumbling their own head through a droid factory for 12 minutes of screen time.

      Nah sorry Ep 1-3 were much better than 7-9, but they were still actually pretty lame films, with the exception of Ep3 which was decent, but that itself , was a salvage job at the time. The prequels are average films, not great films, average. People don't want to hear it (below a certain age because they grew up with the prequels) . Really ...the prequels were the beginning of the end for Star Wars. I dont know how old you are but I was 18 when Phantom menace came out, and EP1 and 2 were not considered anything more than crap. EP3 was Lucas' last ditch effort to make the Prequels work, and whist being better than EP1 and 2 by quite some way, it was still riddled with attempts to satisfy the audience.
      I remember Lucas before Ep3 sounding exactly like JJ just before the release of Ep9 .I remember everyone hating Ep1 and 2 , almost as much as 8 and 9 are hated now. EP3 was considered a good film but somewhat clumsy , and could have been much much better. Also the prequels have a strange feel, which is not very Star Wars. The original trilogy were special, the Prequel Trilogy were band average and the Sequel trilogy is basically runny shit after eating a dodgy meal.
      I mean FFS Vader getting in his costume and the whole "Noooooooooo" crap end of Ep3, which they then went back and dubbed over the end of Return of the Jedi , when Vader chucks the Emperor down the shaft of the Death Star, that crap was added. Shit like that is just fucking terrible and makes Vader into some kind of cartoon character. 7-9 are just so bad people have forgotten how bad Ep1-3 are, I lived through it and remember it clearly, the hype pre, and the disappointment after.
      Just because something is fucking terrible, does not mean it makes something Average into something great

Most people would agree that cinema is the most canonical; topping tv, videogame, book, or other media. However, if a crew of a thousand people make a production that millions and millions of people despise, does it still count as canon? What about Reboots? Which one is the real canon then? Which Total Recall is the actual Total Recall? Is the Star Wars Holiday Special canon? If a single entity / company (like Disney) can make a massive amount of non-film content non-canonical, why can't millions of people make that same decision for themselves, regardless of the media that it exists in? I'm not saying I'm right, but I'm just going to say that it's okay if people make an honest decision with themselves to not recognize these as canonical.
