It's not the Hollywood version of it though, I think she did a lot of pakistani films about women, which is a good thing. It's not like the American thing where you got some man-hating beast that hides behind inequality as an excuse.

I didn't like bringing Palpatine back or Rey calling herself a Skywalker, but other than that the sequel trilogy was pretty damn good. Daisy Ridley did a great job and I like Rey as a character. I'd also love to see more Finn, Rose, Poe, maybe even some more about that little alien lady that gave Rey that lightsaber in TFA, and other characters. They've been on a good run with Mandolorian, Andor, Obi-Won and Boba Fett, so I'm confident this will be another great SW addition. Looking forward to it.

I still have to see the last one. Why can't they just give us Thrawn?

I wonder if they'll fulfill the potential Finn had at being a Jedi or someone who's Force sensitive.

They had a built-in mechanism to retcon the entire ST, and didn't use it.

Saw it already. Thanks anyway. But as a series sadly. We got many books that expanded the universe and most of it is better than what we got on cinema. Hope that it will change soon.

The 'World Between Worlds' at the end of Rebels where Ezra created a new timeline by saving Ahsoka from her duel with Anakin at the end of Season 2. In the last movie there was a part where Rey heard a bunch of dead Jedi voices, Ahsoka being one of them. The theory goes that the ST could have been relegated to the timeline where Ahsoka died at the end of S2 of Rebels, and the 'Mandoverse' was the real timeline where Grogu was Luke's first pupil instead of Ben Solo. They even set it up for Grogu to choose to go with Luke.
Spoiler alert for anybody who still cares, apparently Grogu is used to create the Snoke clones, so don't get too attached to him.

Filoni is making a Heir to the Empire movie that ties up all the series.

The sequel trilogy was awful. Easily the worst Star Wars has ever been. I can't believe I'm saying this, but the prequel trilogy was far superior to the nonsensical sequel trilogy.
Disney should just scrap this idea and move onto to something completely different. Not many people are desperate to see more Ray, Poe or any other of those characters shat out of this Disney era.

Star wars films ended in 83. The new trilogy was just alright to start then it got bad. I have the lowest of expectations.

At least Lucas had competent world-building. All the man needed was a few people around him willing to respectfully call him out on his bullshit. For Christ's sake even Attack of the Clones gave us a bunch of decent lore and memes.

Finn was the most interesting character coming out of Force Awakens and they turned him into a goofy, illogical, needy, worthless character.
Going off the last two films, if JB is in this new series when he gets the script, it will be 40 lines of him screaming: "REY!!!" (pause three seconds) "REY!!!!"

I like Rey but its hard to get excited about a sequel after the last movie. Will we see Finn and Poe?

I do like Daisy Ridley, her character is likeable and she's a decent actor.

Disappointing. I hoped they'd start a completely new trilogy that has nothing to do with Luke, Rey, or any of them.
I liked the new trilogy, but not 4 movies worth.
