J.J. Abrams has said that the 2019 movie may finish the 'Skywalker Saga


Well that statement doesn't make any sense because the hero of the trilogy is not a Skywalker. I wonder if JJ will pull a scooby doo ending and make Rey a Skywalker. Otherwise this trilogy is about nothing.

Assuming Kylo Ren was right about Rey's parents and she isn't a Skywalker, he plays a major role in the movies. He might not be the hero (at least not now), but he's still a huge factor. So it's still about the Skywalker family.

But that's assuming that he was right about Rey. I think the jury's still out on that one.

Kylo could be telling the truth, who knows. JJ could just retcon that part in Ep 9. I still think he will do the scooby doo ending.

Everyone loves a scooby doo ending...rut ro!

Isn't a "scooby doo ending" when they yank some scary monster mask off the chief villain to reveal that it was the janitor all along? I don't understand how Rey being revealed as a Skywalker would fit in with this analogy...

He was really undercover to kill snoke, which he achieved with her help in TLJ (Had to find a way to betray him without him knowing since 'he couldn't be betrayed) - this is why he had to kill Han in order to get closer to Snoke ... and Han understood which is why he forgave him. Also why he didn't kill rey when realistically he should have done so ... easily.

Now he is fighting internally due to his exposure to the dark side and rey will have to break him out of it in order to save everyone else.

The entire franchise ended in 2017 with The Last Jedi.

reply

well actually it ended with the Prequels and OT.

reply

it actually ended with American Graffiti. Everything Lucas did after that was derivative and inferior.

reply

but actually it ended after his first home movie, when he was 15, everything since then has been crap, except the Prequels.

reply

well she is a fake Skywalker, so you are partially right.

reply

Luke Skywalker IS Star Wars. If Jar Jar Abrams was ever really a SW fan, he would know that.

reply

Rey 'identifies' as a Skywalker now.

reply

Yep, so now she gets Luke Skywalkers: Ship, lightsaber, home and last name and didn't do a damn thing to earn any of them.

With any luck it's finished J.J.'s career as well.
