There isn’t the slightest idea what power he needs beyond that. Palp promises Kylo the galaxy, but Kylo has the galaxy. The last two films showed the First Order almost entirely winning. Worse yet, Palpatine has no convincing goal here.

(And even if he was, for God’s sake don’t make every movie about Joker.) Palpatine wasn’t even interestingly different from any other Dark Lord he’s no Joker that needs to be a perennial enemy. The whole thing about Star Wars is that Sith keep coming, man. Admittedly Johnson killed off his big bad, but Lord S’mores was a bore anyway. In The Force Awakens Abrams seemed to get that he could use the same universe to tell a new story with new villains. It’s also muddy verging on incoherent, has a sub-Lucas level of political understanding, and tackily plays on people’s fondness for the first trilogy.įirst… Palpatine. Overall impression: it’s not terrible, it finishes up the story, and has some nice spectacle. It’s still better than the second trilogy, but I think it’s pretty clear that Abrams’s vision was “do the first trilogy over, only with more fanservice.” This theme is a little confused by Ep 8, whose message is “Fanservice is bad.” I was wary of this one, because reviews were bad, and I already knew they shafted Rose Tico. Its name is Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker. And by God we got nine movies, and I just watched the last one, only 42 years after the first.
A long time ago, but in this galaxy, a filmmaker named Lucas promised us nine movies.
