RE: Star Wars IX: The Rise of Skywalker
So I went and watched it last night.

These 3 movies could've been so much more than what they were. Honestly if JJ would've done all 3 who knows what the potential could've been. This trilogy is better in my opinion than the Prequels, out of the prequels only one I thought was good was Revenge of the Sith.

That being said here's the things I saw that I liked:

The story wasn't bad. I liked the plot.
The fight scenes were great. I especially liked the final battle.
Rey's training sequence was great.
I felt like they gave Carrie Fisher an excellent send off. I thought that was nicely done.
Plus it was a Star Wars movie.

Here's what I didn't like:

Finn. I mean seriously we went from this guy being a deserter to being in the middle of a fight. In TFA he's got a thing for Rey.. In TLJ he's got a thing for Rose.. In this one he's back to Rey but then flirts with Jannah for the second half of the movie. On top of that he seems really needy.

The whole Sith angle, I wish they'd built on it more, but it seems it was rushed a little in the scenes with Palpatine along with his return. I wish they'd teased it in TLJ, again JJ needed to do all three and it wouldn't had seemed there was a big rush in TRS.

We FINALLY get a glimpse into Rey's past, but it was a glimpse. We didn't see the full scope of her past which would've been nice. I mean who were her parents truly. We know she's a grand daughter but which one was the offspring?

There was a lot going on in this movie to cover in 2 hours. Alot of this should've been covered in TLJ ala Empire Strikes Back.

The last scene was good.

David if you haven't seen it, go see it. I didn't see as much as the SJW stuff in this one like I saw in the last one. This to me felt like a SW movie.
