The Rise Of Skywalker Review - Is It Worse Than The Last Jedi?

Could Star Wars The Rise Of Skywalker be worse than The Last Jedi? Is that even possible?
Let’s look at The Rise Of Skywalker and see if it is a fitting end to the Skywalker saga.
JJ Abrams has problems finishing stories at the best of times. This time he also tries to re-write Rian Johnson’s film. Will the Disney films be remembered as the high or low point of Star Wars?
Enjoy the review!

Hi Robot Head, good to see your still making videos, it's been a long time since your last one. Though as far as I understand it, JJ didn't have full creative control of the film, or the first one for that matter, in fact, he was quite pissed about it, and I believe the line he said was “Why don't you just say written and directed by Lucasfilm, ” and the totally great idea to bring Palpatine back was KK's I believe, still his version wouldn't have been good, though it still would of been better then what we got.

Watch Star wars Theory. The guy makes wonderful theories, videoes and made an amazing short movie Vader: Shards of the Past. Hopefully, now that the pandemic is over or mostly over, he will be able to make a second Vader episode. I would rather wait for his film another 2 years because I know it won't contradict the lore and story of the Lucas trilogy and he knows the lore insanely well. If he changes up something it is always something possible. Like Windu surviving or his What- if episodes. The saddest thing is Disney didn't let him crowd fund his movie and didn't let him make money from it so he did it pro bono.

It feels sad to hear always George Lucas name being called over and over again as some Knight in shining armor but instead when he was the guy who first sold this IP to that Evil Disney Iger BS. And way before that the ESB was made by Gary Kurtz the true man behind the IP and how this Lucas was against his budget and the story narration and everything. RoTJ had ewoks and shit because Lucas wanted to make his Star Wars into a kiddo fest with tons of merchandising money. And Gary Kurtz left after ESB that's why past that Lucas failed with EP 6 (comedy) &1,2,3 disastrous failures over and over with piss poor story writing and missing the entire aspect of the Universe, but at the very least it had some universe for it. Also worst than ewoks, Jar Jar. I think now he is realizing on how $4Bn sellout of this franchise to the evil corporate with PC drivel and agenda shoehorned into this trash dumpster fire of a series. Whatever, the Mandalorian is crap as well, this series is just made to milk people's wallets, and ruin everything that it had for.

Meanwhile, Finn gets reduced to being a bit of comic relief and just cares about Rey’s safety and fighting with the Resistance.

They are just writing these movies casually, maybe over a coffee in some expensive place. Nothing serious, no creative process. It's a job to them, a paycheck.

Anakin Skywalker: I'm the chosen one. I've trained very hard since I was a little kid. It's been like 20+ years of special training now with master Yoda and Obi Wan Kenobi. I'm the jedi with the highest midichlorian count which means I have the potential to be the strongest user of the force. I also fought a war and many sith lords. My years of experience allow me to be very strong with the lightsaber. I failed many times fighting Dooku, but with years of training I've become stronger and managed to defeat him. My over 20000 midichlorian count allow me to be very strong with the force at my young age even though I've only trained for 20+ years. Imagine when I'm old how strong I will be... I was seduced by the dark side because I wanted to learn the power of healing so that no one else died. Too bad 20+ years of training with the best masters and the highest midichlorian count didn't allow me to do that yet... Rey: I've trained mostly by myself for almost 2 years. I have no previous experience in fighting, lightsabers nor the force. I don't know what a jedi or sith is. I'm Palpatine's granddaughter although I could never be even half as strong as the Chosen One. So my 2 years of 'training' have allowed me to completely dominate lightsaber skills, I've never lost a duel in the whole trilogy. I've defeated one on one my grandfather Palpatine who was the strongest sith of all time and had trained for hundreds of years, without mentioning that when I killed him, he was the strongest version of Sidious we've ever seen, way stronger than the one Yoda himself couldn't defeat. Well I've destroyed him, because I know perfectly how to block force lightning without any previous experience. Unlike the CHOSEN ONE who got destroyed by Dooku's lightning even with decades of training. Fuck he even died because of lightning, what a retard. He could've just blocked it. It's not like the only person to have ever blocked force lightning with his lightsaber was Mace Windu because he dominated Vapaad... In terms of force powers I'm the most powerful force user in the whole history of Star Wars thanks to my 2 years of training and thanks to the force apparently being female. Some of my powers are: Force lightning (strong enough to destroy a whole spaceship with my first try), I can easily lift a big spaceship or force it to stay on the ground even if it's trying to leave at full power, I can heal people and prevent them from dying, I have such precision with the force that I can dig a perfect whole in the sand with it, I even have my own personal force abilities I've developed through my large experience and experimenting with the force in 2 years like: teleporting objects through the force, fly with the force, I can sense whatever I'm looking for or need so I don't have to search for it. Other abilities I have are knowing how everything I've scavenged works, that means, if I've scavenged a door from a spaceship, I know perfectly how a spaceship works, so I know every component of it, I know how they work together and how to repair them in case they're broken. I also know how to pilot a spaceship thanks to my large experience of staring at spaceships and imagining myself driving them. To sum up, I'm by far the strongest jedi there ever was, defeated the strongest sith there ever was, and achieved powers than not even luke, yoda, sidious nor the chosen one could ever achieve, all thanks to my 2 years of intensive training with youtube tutorials.

[@aurorauplinks]

@@DeltaSpark8 You mean like a story where he dones the robes of a jedi but he does it with his own style, not fearing walking around with his helmut, but not feeling a need to not wear it also... and perhaps instead wearing a helmut that carries the ancient shape, but without a facemask, to show him trying to find a path between his parents, his sensei, and his grandfather? i mean sure that could artistically work if we got a good 20 minutes of the film where we see part of who he is becoming and seeing him do a reverse of anakins arc from revenge of the sith... in fact if you play revenge of the sith backwards and basically show kylo shedding his army after a 30 minute intro battle montage where he gains a true epiphany while facing a ancient jedi shrine.. and instead of destroying it he leaves his face mask at it, symbolizing connecting with it, and letting it past his defenses. and then the film takes off with him becoming a shinobi still, a killer still... but not without reason... he becomes a lightside darth vader, still not fully lightside, still bloody and murderous.... but only with great reason for the greater good. and occasionally because he feels someones a danger somehow.... so then this new white knight Ben Skywalker, or would he call himself Ben Solo... in a wway when han married leia, he stopped being solo and became something more, he became complete. and so anyways..... what... thats how marriage works, you marry someone that you feel will balance your own personality, not because they are rich or have a really sexualized appearence, but because.... you like who they are inside, and because together you complete each other in meaningful ways, not completing sentances or completing each other by the other always telling one what to do, but because they understand what each other really loves and likes in life, the good and the bad, the dark and the light so anyways, Ben Solo-Skywalker, or maybe he would take a new name and just call himself Skywalker discarding his first name as far as using it to the point he forgets it and just says skywalker whenever someone asks, living for the memory of his family and loved ones. he is skywalker. ahh so anyways... skywalker is having his power montage, and retains the imperium, but then he addresses his rag tag fleet and has them gather at the main capital woorld he has after bloody infighting and decalres that he is remaking the empire. That from this day forward, every part of the empire, droid, life form, starship brains, all, will have a voice, and a free will so long as their free will does not endanger another member of the empire. And he recreates a empire not of cruelty, but confirms to the people, that he will personally oversee to any reports of a corrupt governor or high government official as soon as anyone gets word to him of it, anyone or anything. and that should they require aid and they trust thier higher officials they should report to thier local governor for other forms of aid, that from this day forward, the empire will serve its people, a machination not for defense, but for nourishing its people. Whether human, alien, or native to the world, they will all have a equal voice when it comes to asking for aid. That he will personally end the life of any governor refusing to hear the words of his people, or unjustly killing them. And then for his people he lets them see his face and removes the helmut for the final part of this broadcast. And he apolagizes, to the empire, the republic, to all parts of the force, for his past actions and denials of his family, and announces his name, and his love for all of his family, and apolagizes to the empire and republic and the forces furthest reachers, for the crimes not just of himself, but of his grandfather darthvader, and for any crimes of any of his family. And vows on this apolagy to seek to always keep everyone within the empire and republic free and able to live their lives as they see fit so long as it doesnt endanger others. and that could be teh end of the film... or just a wierd midway point after which we cut to the imperial fringes where the Empires cloning tanks all contain clones of him... and we hear two officers talking, dressed in imperial science uniforms they cringe as they watch the continued readouts and whine that the emperor still hasnt awaken in any of the clones in 30 years almost now... and thats when it happens imperial crack troops and star destroyer appear on the fringes of thier tech readouts that show the planetary defense alert because they are recieving warnings to prepare for a imperial envoy from a Grand Moff. The Grand Moff is rallying his power and plans on taking everything, including the clones, perhaps to kill them, perhaps to modify them.. .for other purposes... though non of them have woken up And we see the imperial landing troops as they emerge from shuttles and come down on jet packs while support bombers fly in orbit. Tie Defenders quickly running along trenches of the planet on the look out for any attacks or signs of hidden defenses that need to be eliminated if they activate. and i actually was working on this part of the idea last night... but it gets better and i wouldnt want to spoil the beste parts i have been dreaming up last night... it gets much darker and funner

@Gaius Wyrden the prequels are visually impressive and the best light saber battles to date. Jango, Mace, Obiwan, are played well. The problem is holes in the story line that make no sense. Episode 3 Anakin should be a Veteran Jedi General. He has seen war all over the galaxy. He has been heroic, brave, and stood for justice. The idea he is going to run to the dark side and betray every person that raised him and guided him in life is just dumb. He is so scared over a force vision he blindly joins the Sith, the one true enemy of the Republic and the Jedi. Essentially Anakin acts like a spoiled little brat not a vet soldier who has dealt death and sent men to their deaths. His entire life is dedicated to defending the Republic of which his wife is a Senator. Now let's betray everyone and murder little Jedi kids. Just that premise alone ruined the prequels for many. Also every villain in these movies has no motivation I understand besides Jango and Boba. Wtf is Dooku's problem? Who Master Cyper Diaz? Where is Darth maul from and why is this dude so mad? Who the fuck is Grevious? Who are his people? Why is he following orders from Dooku and Sidious? Character development is important and these movies fail.

It was a small moment i Rogue One but I really liked the moment where the rebels are trying to bounce after getting the Death Star plans and a Star Destroyer just appears and a couple of ships run into it. Of course that would happen. They didn't know those ships were there. They only know the location of objects that have a location they can plot. Things don't stay still so the navigational computer has to calculate where everything is and account for any stellar drift since the last time they were there. Which makes that shot of the massive fleet appearing very conveniently within a space that they can all be seen by a single camera from so close up even more insane. Those ships aren't communicating with each other. They're all jumping to the same planet but that's the best they've got. a lot of those ships are going to either crash after exiting hyperspace because they'd still be in motion once they activate their sub light engines or they'll just fly straight through them while still in hyperspace because their exit point was a few miles forward from where the other ships exits were. This whole movie is about as stupid as it gets but for me that is the most insulting to the audience.

[@bravo48]

Also when Kylo flew on the tie fighter from the death star all the way to exogle not only was it completely from memory, but since the system endor is in and the wild space, not the unknown regions, he would've literally had to fly at least through like 4 other star systems, without a hyperdrive because ties didn't have them. So would've taken at least a couple years
