Brilliant. Disney Star Wars - Stuff happens, occasionally making sense but normally not. Now ignore the merchendise and go bitch about how they've trashed it with the rest of us.
Learning how to force heal, teleport and clone objects, manipulate blaster bolts, telepathy, ability to see anyone at anytime anywhere. “It’s all super easy, barely an inconvenience”
@@siddaslothman2273 To be fair that lightsaber in the end that "teleports" to kylo's hand thanks to rey WAS NOT CLONED, it was *spoilers* Leia's saber. Though it is a bit confusing how they made her saber blue as well. :P
Man, I was so done with the movie by the final stand-off in Palpatines basement, I was honestly praying for a 1-armed Mace Windu to bounce up in there, call them all motherfuckers, kill em all. Roll Credits. "This party's over."
Palpatine is like “If you kill me, my spirit will possess you.” and Rey is like “Well I’m not gonna do that. I don’t want to get possessed by a Sith.” Then Palpatine shoots lightning at her and she immediately kills him and he doesn’t possess her, because reasons.
You see, he was using a channeled ability, which put his force-possession on cooldown. He should've specced Corruption and Word of Agony for quick-cast DoTs.
I want to see the alternate ending to this movie where rey and ben keep reviving eachother/dying over and over again. "You take the life force." "No, YOU Take the life force!" Couldn't they each take like, half of the life force?
That makes me think of this scene near the end of a Rupert episode where an old Irish man and the Leprechaun prince argue over wanting the other to keep their good luck amulet which turns into a brief shouting match.
"Well, you can heal people and animals by giving them some life force I decided." Wow, wouldn't that have been convenient when Padme was dying or when Vader was dying or when Qui-Gonn was dying or when Anakin's mom was dying or when Yoda was dying or when....
It solves the problem that he's "spiritually" redeemed but if he comes back alive he has to face the consequences of contributing to the deaths of millions of people. He'd probably have been executed, anyway.
@@twitchascensionDid he though? He helped to defeat both big villains of the story, so he could have just told everyone that it was his secret plan to defeat them. Just try. Why would he throw away every chance? I find it a bit disappointing when the bad guy of a story is evil for no reason, tells everyone that he is evil for no reason and then kills himself off in to make sure the main character(s) don't have to do it. It's just lazy writing.
And it is actually pretty legit, because it has been canonically shown that Jedi (or just proficient Force users in general) can use the Force to slow down their fall from literally any height. Falling is of basically no threat to a conscious, capable Force user.
The scene where Palpatine and Rey both say Im all the sith and Im all the jedi respectively is just like when we were kids roleplaying Star Wars and decided to give ourselves OP powers because we were tired of playing. Truly one of the lines ever said of all time
Yup. It was at this point that it occurred to me that this movie seems like it was written by an 8 year old. I was cringing so hard I just couldn't watch it. I still haven't seen the whole movie. It just goes to show that there are more important things than a massive budget.

The actual story: all the skywalkers die and a Palpatine steals their family name. This is called "rise of skywalker" and hailed as a triumphant theme??? I call it "bad storytelling"
Halfway through the movie, I had a realization: that “Skywalker” wasn’t referring to Rey but to Kylo Ren. I assumed that in a complete flip on previous Star Wars movies and as a final plot twist, Rey was going to turn evil or sacrifice herself and Kylo was going to become good and lead the Jedi order. But none of that happened and we got a weird, predictable ending that makes absolutely no sense
And everyone shows up at the same time. In Endgame, that made sense, in this sense, it doesn't make much sense, and they show up so close to each other there should have been a lot of casualties from all the space allies running into each other.
This. And that line of "I want this film to have a lot of impactful moments, but I don't really want to deal with the actual impacts" rings so true for both franchises as well. Didn't GoT season 8 show the complete destruction of both the Dothraki and Unsullied armies on screen like three times each?
@@Codraroll It did, then literally the next episode the army was perfectly fine. However, Dany having the army itself made sense and stayed true to the plot (thanks to the good early seasons). That Star Destroyer fleet was legit impossible and made none. The entire First Order served no purpose.

Why hint that stormtroopers can be saved and not resolve that? Why raise the issue of how maz got luke's saber and then not resolve it? Better to just not create those plot points in the first place.
What’s even sadder is that George Lucas already had plans for the sequel trilogy which JJ could’ve used which makes his decision of not planning out the trilogy even worse
@@mrvespuccia.k.ameganite1747 That's Kathleen Kennedy and the whole Disney company behind these decisions. I doubt JJ had anything to do with all that.
@Maarten Keus Or he could have just... NOT done that and made something new? Something that wasn't a blatant rip off of a scene that was done far better about 40 years ago?
@Kyle Vernon She wasn't murdered by Palpatine. She used all her life force to deflect Palpatine's electricity back to himself, thus giving up her life to save the Resistance fleet, i.e. sacrificing herself.
@Kyle Vernon I mean yeah. She was holding 2 lightsabers together, _and_ using the Force. Pretty sure all Jedi and Sith use the force when engaging in lightsaber duels. That's why they're better at duels then non-force sensitive plebs. Regardless, my point still stands.
@@carbonfox4464 I always interpenetrated it as the cave showing Luke that he could be the next "Vader" if he goes to the dark side, or that nobody is immune to the influences of the dark side. Due to the fact that earlier in the move iirc Luke states that he won't succumb to the dark side.
JJ: so Palatine's whole thing is that he wants Rey to kill him so he can soul transfer to her. Exec: oh no, so how does Rey stop him? JJ: by killing him. Exec: wouldn't that make his soul transfer to her and do exactly what he wanted? JJ: don't worry about it. Exec: oh, okay!
I thought they did away with that because of the 'all the jedi, all the sith' so there was nothing left to transfer as opposed to if Rey just killed him on her own.
Palpatine: I am inevitable Rey: I am...... Iron Man Kylo: I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. Theres nobody else I rather be, than me
"Then Rey is confronted by an evil version of herself for about 10 seconds." "Why does THAT happen?" "So we can show it in the trailer." "That's smart!"
@@DavidLLambertmobile I noticed that in movies that they will wear helmets or something similar and or only show certain angles when their double is on
To be fair...that WAS smart. It's like all those scenes in Rogue One that were in the trailer that all somehow didn't end up in the final movie that the trailer guys used specifically because they said "We were given a bunch of scenes and we put the coolest looking ones in the trailer"...but then those didn't end up in the actual movie somehow...
@@rattlinbones Ok for example ROTJ makes ghosts interact with things and touch them. Why didn't they fought the Emperor with Luke then? Or ROTJ and ESB makes Leia force sensistive and Vader's daughter yet Vader doesn't sense anything? Also I don't think force healing messes up with other movies since Rey found the power from the old jedi texts
Hey, it worked for Empire. Where they started pushing and pulling things. New Hope; the Force was all mind games. Even the choke wasn't even visible, and the guy just thought the uniform collar was getting tighter, but it was a mind trick then. These are not the droids we are looking for. What was that noise? And so on.
@@yoshidinono8095 Jedi Mind Trick has been, well, a Jedi move since times way back...it requires training and can only work on specific beings with a specific level of intellect. Everything else was literally just telekinesis to push, pull, or grab object/people with the mind. Force Skype that transport things half-way across the galaxy and Force Healing has never cannonly been a thing. Heck, Yoda struggled learning from Qui-Gon how to not lose his individuality when he died so he could teach others how to become Force Ghosts, and them interacting with the world wasn't a thing he learned. He of all people would've known about healing. Goes double since Grogu knows it as just a 50+ year-old kid with minimum training. Isn't something you just "read" about then boom with no training.
Of all the movies this man has torn apart, this one REALLY shows just how bad this movie was. I knew it was really bad, but having him explain it back showed even I didn't understand just how bad lol. how did anyone working on this make it into hollywood
'And then he dies.' 'Oh, he dies?' 'Yeah, he transferred the last of his life force to her!' 'Oh, so she can like, transfer it back to him now?' 'Well yeah, but she doesn't.' 'Oh, savage!' I CAN'T EVEN
@@thederpydazer soooo.... In the end of the day Disney fucked up the whole starwars lore. Me: please end me now. God: I'm going to ruin this man's whole career
Oh yeah, that was so unnecessary. What did that even mean? Will all Jedi start calling themselves Skywalkers now? Why not just reclaim the Palpatine name? Her entire clan wasn't evil. Her parents were so exemplary they literally died to keep her away from Granddad's clutches.
To be fair they did make him vanish immediately so she didn't have time to. Whereas when she died, her body stayed for a good amount of time without vanishing
“Nice, so what are we calling this?” “Get this, ‘The Rise of Skywalker’” “But isn’t she a Palpatine?” “Well I just have her say she’s a Skywalker at the end so it’s all good.” “You wrote the title before your wrote the script didn’t you.” “I did indeed.”
Was weird, burring the light-sabers of the past as like a metaphor to the Skywalker saga finally being over... then bam, and her name is REY SKYWALKER "John Cena Theme" Thought it was a nice homage to her "step-parents"
To be fair it was right next to the ship where they were looking for exactly that clue so like, not exactly as ridiculous as a lot of the other things.
@@MeteorPhoenix1127 Disney: "Uhhhh.... Money-Merchandisinggol? Ah f*** it. We're glad this series is over so we can start a brand new trilogy to bring in impressionable new fans to milk for the next 40 years after you're [Star Wars Fans] all dead."
Yeah, it's insulting how much they steal from the intellectual property they themselves wiped from existence five years ago. This gizmo is not really a holocron (it's just a map, it doesn't hold the Force-powered AI avatar of its creator) but its design is a 100% ripoff of the Sith holocrons from the comics.
@@MeteorPhoenix1127 It's extra strange since Korriban (or Morribond as it's called) is actually in the current canon. Regardless, Exegol seems more in line with Dromund Kaas with it being a hard to find, mist shrouded planet associated with the ancient sith. I think it would have been cool if they just made it either of those planets.
@@willzjc Did you see anything else by JJ? I highly doubt his idea of roadmap means having a complete story with payoffs and stuff. At least he never gave even a slightest reason to suspect this.
"...They meet Lando Calrissian remember!" "He's from the other movies!" "He is, and he's like 'I have a bad feeling about this.'" "He says the thing?!" "He says it, and then..." My favourite exchange from this.
"Oh wow, what are the odds of them ending up in that exact spot after a chase?" "Astronomical! But this is space, so that's okay." Can we all just take a second because that was superb
@Drew Peacock It is Identity theft: "the fraudulent practice of using another person's name and personal information in order to obtain credit, loans, etc." The name skywalker has a lot of positive things to it because of Luke. It is a name people will recognise and treat her differently becasue of a presumed family connection. If I went around the US and startedcalling myself a family member of trump or obama I would be commiting a crime becasue I am am neither. The identity theft is in the fact that she is faking being part of a family.
@Drew Peacock Skywalker happens to be the Chiss word used to refer to those who are force sensitive. Thrawn makes the snarky reference in his meeting with Anakin how he, and the jedi, are Skywalkers, though Anakin is amusingly one in name as well. So, if you enjoy the books like I do, you can reread "Rise of Skywalker" as "Rise of the Jedi"
@@rithrius5384 I'm gonna need u to get all the way of my back with that bendy bendy stuff, that was already shown in the trailer. I was hoping for a long badass fight.
I am of the opinion that seeing this movie will only amount to wasted time that I can never get back, so I could only suspect this. It is nice to have confirmation.
"That guy zaps himself a lot!" That is an understatement. Palpatine is batting a perfect game, 3 for 3, when it comes to force lightning himself in the face in trilogy finales.
And yet he still manages to survive. Maybe we'll get another trilogy where he reveals that force lightning to the face is actually good for him and it's just like a detox
Did you see when Dooku does it? He looks so scared while he's throwing bolts. I think you're literally not supposed to do force lightning, for this exact reason.
And one should think that after two attempts he has learned to switch his own force lightnings off when he begins to fry himself, but nooo... Also what I've learned from this movie is that every fleet of spaceships attacking an evil force user should bring at least _two_ lightsabers with it in case he attacks them with an overwhelming lightning attack with enough power to melt a spaceship.
"It's so strange that we never hinted at this at all, whatsoever, in any way." "Yeah, uh huh, pretty crazy! But this was... this always the plan!" "Was it, though?" "I mean... I mean, yeah! I- I wouldn't start a trilogy without a road map, you know? I wouldn't- I didn't do that!"
@Joshua Cline Burning Man is a festival with music, dance, drugs and sex - then someone sets a big straw man on fire and everyone is happy. its a bit Hippie-esque and that scene in the movie had some similarities
Then people who liked TLJ will sight Johnson as a better guy for wrapping things up failing to see how he pretty much has the same tendency to leave endings with a lot of loose ends or "up to the viewer interpretation".
I stand by there's a missing installment between Last Jedi and this that would bring us up to speed as to why anything that's happening in this movie honestly is....and mix that in with just callbacks to scenes from most of the other movies, INCLUDING the Mustafar battle from Episode III.
@@krash2002 funny you say that, cuz I thought the first third felt rushed, and continuing a plot that started in an installment we've never seen, while the last third. Just. Dragged. Didn't help that despite hitting the latrine three times before it started, I had to go really bad from the middle-on!
Qui-Gon: *Is dying while Obi holds him up* Qui-Gon: ".......Aren't you going to use the force to heal me, Obi?" Obi: "We can heal using the force?!" Qui-Gon: *Dies*
tbf, Palpatine hinted at development of new force powers so maybe a Jedi could come up with new ways to use the force, BUT! healing? that seems like one of the first things anybody would try if it is in the capabilities of the force. Its not that imaginative.

Thank you for summing up the 2010s trilogy in three sentences brilliantly.
Except he left loads of plot points unresolved.
@@NotaroName all the more room to expand upon. Every question shouldn't be answered in a movie it takes away the mystery. Especially in sci-fi
@@MandoFettOG I didn't say answer every question. I don't need to know the name of every ship or anything (*cough* wookiepedia *cough*) but plot points in a story need a resolution. Why hint that stormtroopers can be saved and not resolve that? Why raise the issue of how maz got luke's saber and then not resolve it? Better to just not create those plot points in the first place.
Notaro - JJ loves his mystery boxes man, it’s entirely how LOST got so popular and a bunch of stuff never got answered there

While it was painfully obvious that the trilogy had no plan, JJ Abrams finally admitted that they had no plan.
There was really no point in making up anymore bullsh*t at that point
What’s even sadder is that George Lucas already had plans for the sequel trilogy which JJ could’ve used which makes his decision of not planning out the trilogy even worse

Blech, Square Enix did the exact same thing with Evil Aqua.
smart!
@Maarten Keus Or he could have just... NOT done that and made something new? Something that wasn't a blatant rip off of a scene that was done far better about 40 years ago?
“So she could heal him?”
“Yeah but she doesn’t”
“Oh savage!” 😂
Speaking of which, how does Rey not evaporate after dying like every other Jedi?
@Kyle Vernon She wasn't murdered by Palpatine. She used all her life force to deflect Palpatine's electricity back to himself, thus giving up her life to save the Resistance fleet, i.e. sacrificing herself.
@@rapidreaders7741 because woke culture demanded a female heroic lead at the end of the movie.
@Kyle Vernon I mean yeah. She was holding 2 lightsabers together, _and_ using the Force. Pretty sure all Jedi and Sith use the force when engaging in lightsaber duels. That's why they're better at duels then non-force sensitive plebs. Regardless, my point still stands.
I mean, to be fair, she would just die again so...
"And then the Stormtroopers fly after them."
"They fly now?"
"They fly now."
Not sure if it is a missed opportunity or a brilliant subversion.
Heh. I see what you did there
"They forgot that they have TIE-Fighters?"
"Yes, they kinda forgot"
@Rory Whiteley Not very prominently in the movies, so that doesn´t count in Disney´s eyes.
I love how Writer Guy is so (sarcastically) excited and breathless throughout ... perfectly captures the utter and total banality of the whole thing
then Rey sees herself as a Sith for ten seconds.
oh what's that about?
so we could put it in the trailer!
That’s smart!
Pioh
Like how Luke saw himself as Vader... Because they both were connected to dark side bloodlines.
@@carbonfox4464 but Luke's connection actually made sense. Not shoved in the last movie of the trilogy.
@@carbonfox4464 I always interpenetrated it as the cave showing Luke that he could be the next "Vader" if he goes to the dark side, or that nobody is immune to the influences of the dark side. Due to the fact that earlier in the move iirc Luke states that he won't succumb to the dark side.
Pretty sure even Daisy Ridley was surprised that image made it into the film.
JJ: so Palatine's whole thing is that he wants Rey to kill him so he can soul transfer to her.
Exec: oh no, so how does Rey stop him?
JJ: by killing him.
Exec: wouldn't that make his soul transfer to her and do exactly what he wanted?
JJ: don't worry about it.
Exec: oh, okay!
I thought they did away with that because of the 'all the jedi, all the sith' so there was nothing left to transfer as opposed to if Rey just killed him on her own.
He kills himself
I think that was a lie to get her more emotionally unstable for the soul taking
I think they avoided that since he technically melted himself with his own lightning
Im gunna need you to get alllll the way off my back about that

Hey, it worked for Empire. Where they started pushing and pulling things. New Hope; the Force was all mind games.

And so on.
@@yoshidinono8095 Jedi Mind Trick has been, well, a Jedi move since times way back...it requires training and can only work on specific beings with a specific level of intellect. Everything else was literally just telekinesis to push, pull, or grab object/people with the mind. Force Skype that transport things half-way across the galaxy and Force Healing has never cannonly been a thing. Heck, Yoda struggled learning from Qui-Gon how to not lose his individuality when he died so he could teach others how to become Force Ghosts, and them interacting with the world wasn't a thing he learned. He of all people would've known about healing. Goes double since Grogu knows it as just a 50+ year-old kid with minimum training. Isn't something you just "read" about then boom with no training.

@Drew Peacock It is Identity theft: "the fraudulent practice of using another person's name and personal information in order to obtain credit, loans, etc."
The name skywalker has a lot of positive things to it because of Luke. It is a name people will recognise and treat her differently becasue of a presumed family connection.
If I went around the US and startedcalling myself a family member of trump or obama I would be commiting a crime becasue I am am neither.
The identity theft is in the fact that she is faking being part of a family.
@Drew Peacock Or "The Rise of Palpatine"
She kissed Ben once so that means they're married
@ exactly she gets adopted!
...By more dead people. The eternal orphan.
@Drew Peacock Skywalker happens to be the Chiss word used to refer to those who are force sensitive. Thrawn makes the snarky reference in his meeting with Anakin how he, and the jedi, are Skywalkers, though Anakin is amusingly one in name as well.
So, if you enjoy the books like I do, you can reread "Rise of Skywalker" as "Rise of the Jedi"

And yet he still manages to survive. Maybe we'll get another trilogy where he reveals that force lightning to the face is actually good for him and it's just like a detox
Did you see when Dooku does it? He looks so scared while he's throwing bolts. I think you're literally not supposed to do force lightning, for this exact reason.
And one should think that after two attempts he has learned to switch his own force lightnings off when he begins to fry himself, but nooo...
Also what I've learned from this movie is that every fleet of spaceships attacking an evil force user should bring at least _two_ lightsabers with it in case he attacks them with an overwhelming lightning attack with enough power to melt a spaceship.
He does an amazing job of showing just how ridiculous this is.
