The galaxy hasheard a mysterious broadcast,a threat of REVENGE in thesinister voice of the lateEMPEROR PALPATINE.GENERAL LEIA ORGANAdispatches secret agents togather intelligence, while REY,the last hope of the Jedi, trainsfor battle against the diabolicalFIRST ORDER.Meanwhile, Supreme LeaderKYLO REN rages in searchof the phantom Emperor,determined to destroy anythreat to his power....Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalkernote also known as Star Wars: Episode IX â€“ The Rise of Skywalker is the third film in the Star Wars sequel trilogy and the final chapter of the Skywalker Saga. It is directed by J. J. Abrams, who returns after having directed The Force Awakens, and written by Abrams and Chris Terrio.One year after the events of The Last Jedi, the Resistance has replenished many of its forces and the First Order's conquest of the galaxy begins to stagnate, with neither side having a clear upper hand. Suddenly, Emperor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) releases a message revealing that he has come back from his sudden demise, promising to unleash a fleet of warships, each equipped with the firepower of the Death Star, upon the galaxy from the hidden Sith world of Exegol. Supreme Leader Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) makes a move to ally with the man pulling his strings, with a plan to betray him later.With only 16 hours to enact a plan to find and infiltrate Exegol before the Final Order can be unleashed upon the galaxy, both sides assemble their forces for a crucial battle that will determine the course of history. Rey (Daisy Ridley), the last Jedi, goes on a journey alongside her allies Finn (John Boyega) and Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) to chart a path to the planet, while all three are targeted by the First Order and its Supreme Leader. While confronting Kylo Ren once again, Rey learns of her true origins, and both must face their pasts and confront the Dark Lord of the Sith as the fate of the galaxy hangs in the balance.Most of the sequel trilogy's cast return, including Carrie Fisher (brought back posthumously via repurposed footage from the previous Skywalker Saga films) as Leia Organa, Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker, Harrison Ford as Han Solo, Anthony Daniels as C-3PO, Domhnall Gleeson as Armitage Hux, Lupita Nyong'o as Maz Kanata, Joonas Suotamo as Chewbacca, and Kelly Marie Tran as Rose Tico.

Billy Dee Williams, Denis Lawson, and Warwick Davis reprise their roles as Lando Calrissian, Wedge Antilles, and Wicket W. Warrick, respectively. New additions to the cast include Naomi Ackie as Jannah, Richard E. Grant as Enric Pryde, Keri Russell as Zorii Bliss, and Dominic Monaghan as Beaumont Kin.It was confirmed in 2023 that Daisy Ridley would return as Rey in a new film set fifteen years after this installment to rebuild the Jedi Order.

In between this film and the last, Leia has become Rey's mentor in the Force, training her much as Yoda trained Luke, but with more wuxia elements thrown in.

The suggestion is brushed off as "one in a million". Though in spite of this line, the montage of the First Order's defeat at the end includes a shot of a Star Destroyer broken in nearly the same way as the Supremacy, implying that some crazy Resistance pilot did recreate the Holdo Maneuver successfully.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_17ce80aa	type	All There in the Manual
The Rise of Skywalker / int_17ce80aa	comment	All There in the Manual: The Visual Dictionary for the film explains some of the more oblique plot points that the filmmakers didn't have enough time to cover due to the tight production deadline (i.e. more detail on how Palpatine came Back from the Dead, how he was able to amass the Final Order's massive fleet on Exegol and clarifying that the Final Order Star Destroyers are not mini-Death Stars as the film implies, the name and nature of his cult of followers, how Rey was able to repair Anakin's lightsaber and learned Force Healing, a more clear explanation for why Hux suddenly began to betray the First Order, Poe's backstory and past as a spice runner prior to joining the Resistance, etc.) Palpatine's broadcast to the galaxy is only mentioned in the opening crawl but actually appears during a Fortnite event, of all places. The novelization clarifies that Palpatine's spirit is possessing the body of a clone, but it wasn't strong enough to contain his power. It also states that the "son" who went on to be Rey's father was another unsuitable clone that went rogue and escaped. It's only clarified in supplementary material that the opening scene takes place in the ruins of Darth Vader's castle (first seen in Rogue One) and that the Sith wayfinder Kylo retrieves belonged to Vader. And without playing Vader Immortal or reading The Visual Dictionary, there's no explanation for why the area looks so drastically different from Rogue One (or why Mustafar as a whole looks different from Revenge of the Sith, making it hard for casual viewers to recognize).

The Rise of Skywalker / int_1872821f	comment	Related Differently in the Adaptation: Rey is revealed to be the paternal granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine. However, the The Rise of Skywalker: Expanded Edition states that Palpatine's "son" is actually a clone, so while there's still shared DNA between them, Rey technically isn't his real granddaughter (genetically she could be considered his daughter). The movie doesn't mention this and specifically refers to Rey as being Palpatine's "granddaughter" including by Palpatine himself, so it's unclear which version is canon. note the novelization appears to be based on an earlier version of the film's script, like many novelizations, so not everything in it matches up with the finished film

The Rise of Skywalker / int_1b65dfad	comment	The Cameo: Various ships from the animated shows make cameos in the Gondor Calls for Aid scene, most prominently, the Ghost from Star Wars Rebels. The Fireball, Yeager's ship, and Torra's ship from Star Wars Resistance have also be seen in blink-and-you-miss-it moments. In the novelization, the ships/pilots that check in include the Phantom Squadron, Zay with Inferno Squad, Alphabet Two, and Kaz in the Fireball and implicitly Yeager. The voices of the Jedi past that Rey hears are Anakin, Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, Yoda, Mace, Luminara, Aayla, Adi Gallia, Kanan, and Ahsoka. The voices of Snoke and Vader are heard as Palpatine echoes to Kylo Ren in the open. Series composer John Williams appears as the bartender on Kijimi who shakes his head when the protagonists walk in to see Babu Frik. (Presumably, he was killed when the Final Order destroys the planet later in the movie.) Denis Lawson returns for a 2-second shot at the end as Wedge Antilles, who turns up manning one of the Falcon's quad-gun turrets. Harrison Ford makes one last appearance as a hallucination of Ben Solo's. One of the Ewoks in the celebration montage at the end is Warwick Davis reprising the role of Wicket. (The Ewok standing next to him is Wicket's son Pommet, played by Warwick's son Harrison.) Ed Sheeran, Karl Urban, Dhani Harrisonnote Son of the late George Harrison, Nigel Godrich, J.D. Dillard, and Dave Hearn briefly appear as stormtroopers. In visions/flashbacks, Rey's mother is played by Jodie Comer, appearing for less than 30 seconds total. During the "reunion" scene near the end of the movie, in the shot where Chewbacca hugs Rose, to their right Lin-Manuel Miranda hugs a female pilot.

What's more, the Skywalker and Solo bloodlines are no more thanks to the deaths of Leia Organa and Ben Solo. Rey instead opts to carry forward the Skywalker legacy by accepting the name as her own, having "Skywalker" transcend the idea of a traditional bloodline.

The rest of the Resistance sit around at their base until Poe rallies them to attack Exegol in the third act. Supporting character Lando is also busy whipping up a civilian fleet, though this all happens offscreen.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_21d70919	comment	The revelation that Rey is the paternal granddaughter of Palpatine (thus inheriting her Force powers from him) and that her parents weren't abusive drunks, but loving parents who left her on Jakku to protect her. Besides not really matching up with The Last Jedi's reveal about Rey's heritage, it raises more questions such as when Palpatine had a son, why he had never been mentioned before, why Rey and Kylo were both under the impression her parents sold her for drinking money, and why Rey's parents thought abandoning her on Jakku was a good way to protect her, to name some. The novelization tries to clear things up a bit by revealing Rey's father was an "imperfect" clone of Palpatine, but this still leaves unanswered questions.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_23473ae7	comment	Adaptation Expansion: The novelization addresses several things not touched upon in the movie. Palpatine was resurrected via transferring his essence into a clone body, as in Dark Empire. Rey's father was Palpatine's attempted replacement clone body, hence why he wasn't heard about prior, defective for lacking Force ability. Rey and Ben's story arc wasn't about romance; their kiss is described in emotionally heightened but non-romantic terms. Rey isn't retiring to Tatooine in the final scene; she's just burying the lightsabers and will continue being a hero across the galaxy.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_23698fa8	type	Aborted Arc
The Rise of Skywalker / int_23698fa8	comment	Aborted Arc: The budding romance between Finn and Rose, established in the previous film, is abandoned in this film. After a brief shot of Finn standing watch over a recuperating Rose, the pair barely interact. Star Wars: Resistance Reborn, which was released in the lead-up to the film, indicates that Finn and Rose decided that they were Better as Friends. Luke promised to give Rey three lessons in the prior film. He gets as far as two before Rey decides to leave the planet to help her friends and Luke dies helping the Resistance in the final act. Although he does return as a Jedi Spirit in this film, and tells Rey a different lesson, whatever the third lesson would have been remains untold. Luke's parting lines to Kylo Ren in the prior film, "See you around, kid," was meant to set up a subplot in Colin Trevorrow's version of Episode IX that would have had Luke's force ghost haunting Kylo. This was scrapped along with the entirety of Colin's version and Luke and Kylo never interacted again in the trilogy.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
The Rise of Skywalker / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: The heroes happen across the Aki-Aki Festival of the Ancestors, held once every 42 years. The Rise of Skywalker was released 42 years after the original A New Hope. The plot about Palpatine returning by possessing a clone body and building a fleet of superweapons, all while attempting to make a Jedi his new apprentice/possess them also heavily echoes Dark Empire, a comic series in Star Wars Legends where he did exactly that. Kylo Ren/Ben Solo having visions of a grand Throne, with the universe either at peace or turmoil under the rule of a Solo, calls to mind Darth Caedus/Jacen Solo — the old Expanded Universe's son of Han and Leia — having visions of his daughter on a grand throne both in a time of peace and under the reign of a Sith. Kylo/Ben turning back to the light after a long fall in a search for everlasting galaxy-wide peace that left Luke embittered and the Jedi nearly eradicated completes the arc of a Solo's son being redeemed — Jacen, again, underwent something similar, complete with attempting to convince a female rival/comrade to join the Dark Side, avoiding a fight (and becoming mortally wounded as a result), and said rival/comrade nearly falling to the Dark Side twice. Palpatine having a son who was against him, plus a grandchild who isn't aware of their heritage, had previously been in a series of Star Wars Legends books from the '90s. In a Freeze-Frame Bonus, the display showing Luke's X-Wing identifies it as "AA-589," the serial number it was given in The Thrawn Trilogy. Leia's death shortly before the final assault on the First Order mirrors the passing of Admiral Ackbar shortly before the final assault on the Yuuzhan Vong in the New Jedi Order books. Palpatine utilizing the combined power of all the Sith is remarkably similar to Jerec's plan with the Valley Of The Jedi in Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II. Rey making use of the combined power of the Jedi echoes Kyle Katarn's use of the same source to regain his Force powers in Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. In the Legends continuity, Darth Vader's personal abode, Bast Castle (not to be confused with Fortress Vader), was described as looking like it was made out of black onyx stone. Kylo Ren keeps his grandfather's melted mask on a pedestal which looks like black onyx. Chewbacca became the only one of the original heroes from all three original trilogy films to actually die over the course of the Legends Expanded Universe (specifically in New Jedi Order). While audiences already knew Leia would die in this film, it was a surprise that Chewie gets killed, but he actually wasn't. So the sequel trilogy did the complete opposite of the Expanded Universe, with Han, Luke, and Leia passing away during wartime, while Chewie outlived them. When Stormtroopers are searching for the heroes on Kijimi, the dialogue matches the scene in Episode IV where R2-D2 and C-3PO hide from troops in Mos Eisley. Palpatine refers to his resurrection as "the return of the sith" - Star Wars: Episode VI â€” Return of the Jedi was originally called "Revenge of the Jedi" before being changed, the title instead being used for Episode III. Here, Palpatine brings things full circle (Revenge/Jedi, Return/Jedi, Revenge/Sith, Return/Sith)

This retcons previous information explaining that Wookiee culture prevents Chewbacca from accepting medals from non-Wookiees, although he may just have accepted it due to being something that he can remember Han, Luke, and Leia by. The invokedFan Nickname "Holdo Maneuvers" (i.e., ramming another starship at lightspeed) is used onscreen by Beaumont Kin. The fan questions about "why didn't the Rebels use this before" are also acknowledged by Snap Wexley, who points out that the high cost versus the low chance of success makes it prohibitively impractical. (Though we later find out that it didn't stop someone over Endor from trying it — and succeeding!) General Pryde complains about how investing all of the nascent First Order's munitions into a superweapon like Starkiller Base was a massive waste of time and resources compared to just constructing a viable fleet. This same point has been brought up by many fans over the years, especially in the Old EU (where the Empire was practically addicted to building Death Star clones).

It used to be that literally planet-destroying weapons were fairly rare in the setting; the Death Stars in the original films were basically just really big warships, so they weren't magical or gimmicky (by the standards of the galactic civilization), but they still required very substantial investments, and so there weren't very many of them. In this movie, planet-destroying firepower can be fitted into an ordinary warship that is millions of times smaller, and there are lots and lots of them in the Emperor's secret fleet.

The hulk of Death Star II debris, apart from being broken up in chunks, is in fairly good shape despite having been blown up several decades earlier and crashed on a different moon than the one it was originally orbiting. There are walkable corridors, TIE hangars (presumably, going by the above point), scores of Stormtrooper helmets lying around in excellent condition, and the Emperor's throne is even still in its original position despite his Tower being flung off the DS and crashing next to the dish. Even the secret chamber doors have enough power to open and close. Ochi's ship, despite being derelict in a desert planet for over fifteen years, in a highly visible place near a populated outpost, takes only a few kicks and spittle to start up and become spaceworthy again.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_40cc0c7e	comment	Bittersweet Ending: Emperor Sheev Palpatine/Darth Sidious is permanently destroyed, the Sith and the Final Order are eradicated, and the First Order has been dealt a massive blow and is on the retreat as ordinary citizens rise up to help the Resistance. However, Leia dies after using up her remaining energy to make Ben pull a Heelâ€“Face Turn, and Ben himself saves Rey at the cost of his own life, thus the Skywalker and Solo bloodlines are extinct. However, upon his death, Ben completed what his grandfather Anakin Skywalker set out to do, which is to gain the power to stop the people he cared about from dying. Also, the Skywalker name lives on, as Rey adopts it for herself to honor them, turning the foul lineage of Palpatine she must live with into the power to aid her in her task to restore the Jedi as the guardians of peace and justice to the galaxy, expanding the name as something greater than the concept of a bloodline.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_41a894d2	comment	Voodoo Shark: The lack of backstory for Snoke was a sticking point many people had about the last two films. Early on, this film explains that Snoke was in fact a creation of Palpatine, evidently artificially grown in a pod on Exegol. However, the film does not explain why Palpatine would want to create Snoke in the first place and use him as a proxy for his plans, potentially risking Snoke becoming a rival. The explanation also does not fit supplementary information about Snoke's history, which had indicated that he was older than Palpatine's Empire, barring the possibility that he simply had Fake Memories. The revelation that Rey is the paternal granddaughter of Palpatine (thus inheriting her Force powers from him) and that her parents weren't abusive drunks, but loving parents who left her on Jakku to protect her. Besides not really matching up with The Last Jedi's reveal about Rey's heritage, it raises more questions such as when Palpatine had a son, why he had never been mentioned before, why Rey and Kylo were both under the impression her parents sold her for drinking money, and why Rey's parents thought abandoning her on Jakku was a good way to protect her, to name some. The novelization tries to clear things up a bit by revealing Rey's father was an "imperfect" clone of Palpatine, but this still leaves unanswered questions.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_53224e46	comment	Bookends: This film is called the conclusion of The Skywalker Saga for several reasons. The central conflict of The Phantom Menace began with a fleet of ships blockading a planet, preventing the citizens from leaving or receiving aid from teh Republic. The central conflict of The Rise of Skywalker revolves around preventing a fleet of ships from leaving a planet and potentially blockading thousands of worlds if they escape. The family saga chronologically started on Tatooine for the Skywalkers in The Phantom Menace. The last scene of the Skywalker saga in The Rise of Skywalker happens on Tatooine. The first released Star Wars film, A New Hope, also started on Tatooine with Luke's life-changing adventure starting at his home, the Lars homestead. The last scene of The Rise of Skywalker happens at the abandoned Lars homestead with Luke's Force spirit watching as Rey takes the name "Skywalker". A memorable scene from A New Hope has Luke watching the twin suns of Tatooine, which was also referenced in Revenge of the Sith when he was a baby. The final movie of the Skywalker Saga has Rey Skywalker watching both suns from the same spot. Anakin's lightsaber was first introduced on the planet Tatooine in A New Hope. More than 30 years later, Rey brought it back to the desert planet and buries it beneath the sand. Furthermore, the Lars Homestead is also the burial site of Shmi Skywalker in Attack of the Clones, reuniting a symbol for Anakin, and the family as a whole, with the family matriarch. C-3PO's last line in the film is identical to his first line in A New Hope: "Did you hear that?" Early in the film, an Aki-Aki child asks Rey her family name, and she explains she has none, it's "just Rey." At the end of the film, an elderly human woman asks her the same question, and she introduces herself as Rey Skywalker. In Rey's Force vision in The Force Awakens, she heard the voice of Obi-Wan Kenobinote Featuring archive audio of Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor, plus new recordings from James Arnold Taylor. telling her "Rey... these are your first steps." In the climax of this movie, when she hears the voices of all the slain Jedi calling out to her, Obi-Wan is among them and tells her "Rey, these are your final steps." One of Rey's first scenes in The Force Awakens has her and BB-8 walking towards the sunset. The sequel trilogy ended with the pair watching Tatooine's twin suns rising. Rey's first scene in The Force Awakens has her passing by the remains of an Imperial Star Destroyer. One of the last scenes of the film shows a First Order Star Destroyer about to crash-land in the deserts of Jakku, just behind it. When the trailers for The Force Awakens premiered, the first time we ever heard Rey speak was someone asking who she was and her answering that "[She is] no one." The Rise of Skywalker closes with someone asking Rey the same question, but this time she answers with "Rey Skywalker." The opening words of the film are "The dead speak!", referring to Palpatine announcing his return. A key moment at the climax has the dead Jedi speak to Rey. Kylo's first scene is the opposite of his last. In The Force Awakens, he descended from the sky and brought death for the First Order. In his last, he ascends from the ground and gives his life to save the last hope of the Jedi. Rey's first scene in The Force Awakens has her sliding down a sand dune on a sheet of scrap. At the end of this film, she slides down sand on a piece of scrap to look around inside the Lars homestead. A fairly subtle one with all three trilogies — they all end with Leia and Luke . The prequel trilogy ends with baby Leia being taken to Alderaan to meet her new family, and baby Luke being taken to Tatooine to meet his new family. The original trilogy ends with young-adult Leia and Luke (having discovered they are twins) celebrating with the others while the Force Ghosts of Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Anakin look on. The sequel trilogy ends with elderly Leia and Luke, as Force Ghosts, approving Rey adopting the Skywalker name, under the twin suns of Tatooine. The prequel trilogy ends with a Skywalker (Anakin/Darth Vader) and a Palpatine (Sheev/Emperor) coming together to bring ruin to the galaxy and the eradication of the Jedi. The sequel trilogy ends with a Skywalker (Ben Solo) and a Palpatine (Rey) coming together to save the galaxy and begin a new generation of Jedi. Anakin's fall to the Dark Side only seriously begins when his mother dies in his arms and there's nothing he can do to save her. Ben's redemption is complete when Rey dies in his arms and he is able to bring her back to life (albeit at the cost of his own). The Skywalker Saga chronologically began with a woman with the name Skywalker (Shmi Skywalker, the mother of Anakin Skywalker) and ended with a woman with the name Skywalker (Rey taking up the name Skywalker). Rey started her story wearing a Rebel pilot helmet while dreaming of a greater galaxy and a family she's never known. It ends with her flying to Exegol in Luke's X-Wing, wearing his old helmet, having found her family.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_53c5f30e	comment	Happy Ending Override: Return of the Jedi gets hit with this further than it already did with The Force Awakens. Palpatine returned from a state of death thanks to his contingency plan, which he'd been preparing for decades; even if he is effectively a living corpse hooked up to life support, the fleet he's built is explicitly stated to be the largest in the history of the galaxy, and that's before considering the fact that every single ship has a Death Star laser. He's also been behind the First Order via a Puppet King, Snoke, in the interim, and The Visual Dictionary to the film reveals that Palpatine had influence over many of the galaxy's industrial corporations via Sith Eternal cells. Furthermore, per the same book, Snoke's own defeats in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi were All According to Plan to prepare Kylo Ren for his role. The thing that keeps this from being a Shoot the Shaggy Dog situation is that Palpatine's grand return only lasts for less than a day before the entire galaxy, inspired by the prior and present heroism of the leaders of the Rebel Alliance and the Resistance, shows up to his front door and destroys the Final Order, just as he experiences a Final Death, taking the Sith Eternal with him, and uprisings around the galaxy cause the start of the collapse of the First Order.

However this ends up blowing back in Palpatine's face (literally) because it allows Rey to realize what killing Palpatine means for both of them and she manages to stay her hand until she can summon the power of the light side to drive back Palpatine's own attack towards her (meaning she did not strike him down in anger) and use it against him to finally end him once and for all.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_56075763	comment	Damaged Soul: Although it's not explicitly stated, it's strongly implied that Palpatine suffered mental damage in between his "death" and resurrection. Whereas in previous interpretations he was a political mastermind (and always careful to hide his Force abilities from the public), here he is a public Sith and officially broadcasts his intention to rule through naked tyranny. His attempts to tempt Rey to darkness also look very feeble, compared to his analogous approaches to Luke in Return of the Jedi and Anakin Skywalker in the prequels. Although Palpatine's approach to Luke — who already viewed him as a mortal enemy — was already sledgehammer-subtle in comparison to his seduction of Anakin, who never saw the threat until it was far too late. It's also worth noting that once he absorbs the Dyad and his soul is repaired, he's able to pull off one of the most powerful displays of the Force in the franchise — but is also unable to stop firing his lightning at Rey as she deflects it back at him.

Early on, this film explains that Snoke was in fact a creation of Palpatine, evidently artificially grown in a pod on Exegol. However, the film does not explain why Palpatine would want to create Snoke in the first place and use him as a proxy for his plans, potentially risking Snoke becoming a rival. The explanation also does not fit supplementary information about Snoke's history, which had indicated that he was older than Palpatine's Empire, barring the possibility that he simply had Fake Memories.

The end, where he starts to tell Han he loves him, and Han says "I know", echoes the scene in The Empire Strikes Back where Leia first admits she loves Han. Luke's line "A thousand generations live in you now" serves as an echo of Obi-Wan's own line to him back in A New Hope "For over a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice". A short one: Palpatine echoes his own lines from Episode three, regarding the "unnatural" ways in which he escaped actual death, just as he said Darth Plagueis had done before. This ability was regarded as a myth; it seems he was powerful enough to unveil the secret.

Thanks to the odd climate, Exegol disables his Star Destroyers' shields, so you'd think he'd never want to take the risk of having an enemy engage them there, especially once he publicly announces his return. Instead, he keeps his whole fleet in the one place in the entire galaxy where it's vulnerable to being lasered-to-death by a swarm of starfighters. The symbolic act notwithstanding, Kylo throwing away his lightsaber for no other reason than because it's red would have gotten him killed on Exogol if it wasn't for Rey giving him hers.

When the Millennium Falcon lands on fire at the Resistance base and belly-flops on Kef Bir with no landing gear, and when Rey gets out of Luke's X-Wing or Ben gets out of his TIE fighter, these all take place offscreen.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_851dda8f	comment	Humanoid Abomination: By this point in the saga, Darth Sidious's excessive usage of The Dark Side has turned him into an unholy monstrosity in the form of a man. Not only has he conquered death and returned as a rotting corpse while having an entire legion of devout followers who see him as a God of Evil, he also displays the full scope of his power at its most terrifying and also claims himself to have all of the dead Sith lords of the past dwelling within him. Dark Rey, seen in Rey's vision, deserves a mention as well. She looks just like the Rey we all know and love but has been consumed by The Dark Side, has a mouthful of Scary Teeth, and moves around in a rather unnatural manner. Plus, considering she's the possible result of Rey getting possessed by Palpatine, who already has all of the other Sith with him, you get the idea.

Denis Lawson briefly returns as Wedge Antilles, as part of Lando's crew on the Millennium Falcon. And, as stated in the Opening Scroll, Palpatine himself. Palpatine impersonates the voices of Supreme Leader Snoke and Darth Vader, giving Andy Serkis and James Earl Jones brief appearances. An abundance of Jedi from prior movies — and even television series — appear as voices that guide Rey, including Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker, Ashley Eckstein as Ahsoka Tano, Freddie Prinze Jr. as Kanan Jarrus, Olivia D Abo as Luminara Unduli, Samuel L. Jackson as Mace Windu, Frank Oz as Yoda, Liam Neeson as Qui-Gon Jinn, Jennifer Hale as Aayla Secura, and Angelique Perrin as Adi Gallia, with Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker closing the speech. In the cases of Tano, Jarrus, Unduli, Secura, and Gallia, this is the first time that any of those characters had lines in the films.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: When Kylo Ren announced to the Supreme Council that there's a traitor among them, he sensed that Hux is uncomfortable and asked if that's because of his repaired mask. In this scene, it only appeared that Kylo was messing with Hux, but it's later revealed that Hux is the traitor, so of course, he became uncomfortable when Kylo announced that there was a traitor among them. General Pryde has a Traitor Shot where his face is in shadow save for a patch of light across his eyes. This is reminiscent of the lighting on Palpatine in Return of the Jedi, hinting at Pryde being a Palpatine loyalist. Happens substantially on Pasaana, twice, both times indicating Rey's ancestry On Pasaana, Rey uses Healing Hands on a vexis's wounds, thereby getting it out of the way of an exit from the cave system the gang is trapped in. After thinking on this for a bit, the connection to Palpatine, who indirectly admitted to being taught by Darth Plagueis how to create life with the Force, is clear. Rey destroys the First Order frigate with Force lightning during a struggle to bring it down against Kylo Ren's attempt to break the hold on it. We later find out Palpatine is her grandfather. The ease with which she's drawn on the Dark Side, both subtly and obviously, throughout the trilogy also counts. Rey takes out a First Order frigate with Force Lightning by accident. In the climax, Palpatine disables the Resistance fleet with a far larger, sustained blast of lightning. The first words of the Opening Crawl are "The dead speak!" In the climax of the movie, the voices of the dead Jedi council speak to Rey in her moment of greatest need. Kylo's Heelâ€“Face Turn in the third act is hinted at earlier in the film; some of his body language starts to become reminiscent of Han Solo's, he's noticeably calmer compared to his explosive temper in the previous films, he never even considers Palpatine's offer to kill Rey in exchange for the Sith Fleet and his quarters are decorated very brightly for a Dark-Sider (especially compared to his quarters from The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi), looking closer to a Rebel/Resistance ship's interior than the decor usually found in Empire/First Order ships.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_acf33d00	comment	Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: In The Last Jedi, the Resistance called for aid and nobody came, because the First Order only targeted the Resistance and those who were never part of the Resistance to begin with were unwilling to take part in the war because they believe it's already a Hopeless War. This time, the Sith/Final Order threatens to destroy all free worlds if they do not submit, and how do people in the galaxy react? They come to the Resistance's aid because they realize now that they too are in the line of fire. As a double-whammy, Palpatine revealing why he needs Rey to kill him in fury ends up undermining any chance she has of actually going through with it. The true irony here is that when he unleashes his power against the Big Damn Heroes just above his head, she could have struck him down as an act of courage to immediately and directly save her friends (an option that wasn't available to Luke) and thereby got away with it.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_bf00b603	comment	No Romantic Resolution: None of the romances teased throughout the trilogy result in a definitive resolution. After expressing attraction to Rey in the first film, Finn tries to make some sort of dying declaration to her, but gets cut off and refuses to elaborate after the fact. He and Rey remain platonic friends in the end. His budding romance with Rose, introduced in the second film, isn't even addressed in this one. He has a few entirely platonic conversations with her, none of them about their relationship. A possible romance with Jannah is introduced in this film, but has no resolution. By the end of the film, they've shared no romantic moments, and Jannah ends the film talking to Lando about finding out her origins. Rey always treats Finn entirely as a platonic friend and remains oblivious to the fact that he ever had interest in her. The trilogy-long teasing of a romance with Kylo Ren ends with his death immediately after their Big Damn Kiss, so they never have a chance to actually decide whether they're together. Poe finally gets a romantic interest in the form of his old comrade Zorri Bliss, with whom he shares Belligerent Sexual Tension. In the end of the film, he nonverbally propositions her, and she shoots him down. It's ultimately unclear whether she has no interest at all or is still stringing along their BST.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_c530519c	comment	The invokedFan Nickname "Holdo Maneuvers" (i.e., ramming another starship at lightspeed) is used onscreen by Beaumont Kin. The fan questions about "why didn't the Rebels use this before" are also acknowledged by Snap Wexley, who points out that the high cost versus the low chance of success makes it prohibitively impractical. (Though we later find out that it didn't stop someone over Endor from trying it — and succeeding!)

The Rise of Skywalker / int_c6102eb0	comment	The additional idea that Palpatine wishes to steal Rey's body so he can become Empress as her also closely mirrors Blackhole's scheme in Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor, although he wanted to do it with Luke. The Rey/Palpatine throne room scene bears a particularly heavy resemblance to an equivalent one in that book, where Luke meets Blackhole on his Shadow Throne. It is also similar to the Emperor attempting to pass on his spirit to the then baby Anakin Solo, the events of which again occurred during Dark Empire.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Albrekh, the chimpanzee-like Sith alchemist who reforges Kylo Ren's broken helmet, is named after Alberich, the dwarf who created The Ring of the Nibelung. Some have also taken his appearance as an esoteric allusion to the Emperor's appearance in The Empire Strikes Back, which was created by superimposing a monkey's eyes over a woman in heavy makeup and prosthetics. Kylo's new quarters, which are stark white and clean unlike his prior dark and moody ones, are a reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey. Dark Rey hissing and taking on a monstrous appearance with sharp teeth for a split second is likely a reference to Bilbo Baggins's own infamous Jump Scare from the film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. The heroes take down the Final Order Star Destroyers by targeting their superlaser cannons, followed by a montage of First Order Star Destroyers being taken down across the galaxy, which is just like the ending of Independence Day. The superlaser cannons being built underneath the Star Destroyers — instead of within the ships and with the muzzle protruding out from the bow (like Palpatine's Eclipse dreadnaughts in Dark Empire) — is like the positioning of the planet bombardment gun on the Comet Empire dreadnaught in Space Battleship Yamato. Palpatine's death in the movie heavily evokes Toth melting away in Raiders of the Lost Ark. The scene where John Williams appears has references to each of his Oscar-nominated scores. Among the objects are yellow barrels, a Hook, an electric iron, a bullwhip, E.T.'s spaceship, dogtags and a book representing The Book Thief.

By contrast, in the original trilogy, Lando was the only character of color with a major speaking part, and the antagonistic Empire was patterned on British Nazis (thus all white that we saw).

Even considering that a fair amount of people know about the Force by now, considering that, as far as we know, no Sith Lord has come Back from the Dead, it's still weird people aren't more shocked and/or even wondering if it's some kind of hoax. (Not a perfect analogy, but imagine some famous person who died decades ago came back from the dead suddenly, and most people's response was just "that's kind of weird", rather than "Holy shit!, is this some kind of miracle or something?") Of course, given what some have seen about the Force already (or at least heard) this may not be that surprising.

However, the ending wraps it up with a throwaway line that people are now rising up against the First Order, we get a montage of a couple of their starships crashing. At the very least, with Hux, Pryde, Palpatine, and Kylo Ren out of the way, they are leaderless. Palpatine's resurrection. Again, one throwaway line about something-something cloning and Sith magic, and a villain who used to be Deader than Dead (as in thrown into a reactor and vaporized, and then literally nuked by an exploding Death Star on top of that) is back.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_dc579c91	comment	Contrived Coincidence: Palpatine is revealed to have been searching for Rey, who was within travel distance of the map to Luke Skywalker the Resistance and First Order sought, and the Millennium Falcon which Han Solo sought. The Force Awakens and the Sequel Trilogy happened because three things that were supposed to be hidden and all the major characters were searching for wound up in the same place with no-one the wiser. Near the start of the movie, Poe triggers a series of blind hyperspace jumps with no prior calculation. Each time he comes out not only near a planet (which would already be astronomically long odds), but in atmosphere, within metres of smashing into something. The idea that this would happen three times in a row completely randomly beggars belief. Rey, Poe, and Finn are chased out into the deserts of Pasaana and the exact spot where their transports are destroyed happens to be in quicksand, which is right over the remains of the Jedi hunter they were searching for, allowing them to stumble upon a dagger that will point them to the location of the last Sith wayfinder. When searching for the Sith wayfinder on Kef Bir, Rey happens to wind up standing in the exact spot where she needs to be in order to fit the dagger into the outline of the Death Star II's wreckage (which somehow has not shifted, collapsed, and/or been scavenged in the decades since Return of the Jedi).

Even ignoring how it was Captain Phasma who lowered the shields around Starkiller Base that allowed the Rebels to blow it up to save her own skin, their Supreme Leader Kylo Ren had a bigger role in screwing over Starkiller Base by kidnapping Rey and bringing her there while neglecting to retrieve BB8 and spending time settling his personal scores with Han, Finn, and Rey. Hux's worst crime was being unable to repel the assault while doing his actual job of defending the base. This is to provide Foreshadowing on Hux's reasons for betraying The First Order to screw over Kylo Ren.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_e1636077	type	SchrÃ¶dinger's Canon
The Rise of Skywalker / int_e1636077	comment	SchrÃ¶dinger's Canon: Transfer Essence/Essence Transfer/Force Drain/Dark Transfer (and a few other names besides) has been a prominent Force power in Legends continuity, despite a lack of Force healing abilities depicted onscreen (until now). Interestingly, the film shows two variations of it while strongly hinting at a third: Rey (and later Ben) use the "Light Side" version, healing another being by investing it with their own Force energy. Palpatine uses a "Dark Side" version, draining the life force from Rey and Ben (and, it's implied, their Force Bond) in order to fully restore himself from his Dark Lord on Life Support state. Finally, it's implied Palpatine used a variation of the trick which was shown in Dark Empire, transferring his consciousness, essence, "soul" from his dying body to a new cloned body. Palpatine telling Rey that if she strikes him down in anger, he'll be open to possess her body, using it to prolong his own life. Darth Bane learned the secret of immortality via Grand Theft Me after founding the Rule of Two, and attempted to use it on his apprentice when they fought for the future of the at-the-time new Sith. The novel leaves it a tad ambiguous on if Bane was successful at possessing Zannah, hinting that Palpatine's claim to be "all the Sith" is Not Hyperbole. (Note, however, that author Drew Karpyshyn clarified in his blog that he had intended Bane to have failed to possess Zannah: the ambiguity here resulted from mistakes on his part.) Rey uses the Force to seize a small ship that's lifting off and stop it from flying away, which Vader did in the Vader Down comics story arc.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_e303d198	type	Whole-Plot Reference
The Rise of Skywalker / int_e303d198	comment	Whole-Plot Reference: Although various details are changed (mostly to accommodate the new Disney-verse protagonists), the main outline of the plot, and even many of its individual elements, look eerily similar to the old Star Wars Legends continuity's legendary Dark Empire — which likewise featured The Reveal of a surviving Palpatine as The Man Behind the Man, hidden fleets, cloning, the Emperor as a Person of Mass Destruction, a planet-destroying gun mounted on a Star Destroyer, body theft, and much else that now reappears in The Rise of Skywalker. For the most important difference, there it was Luke and Leia together who defeated the Emperor, not his granddaughter. The additional idea that Palpatine wishes to steal Rey's body so he can become Empress as her also closely mirrors Blackhole's scheme in Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor, although he wanted to do it with Luke. The Rey/Palpatine throne room scene bears a particularly heavy resemblance to an equivalent one in that book, where Luke meets Blackhole on his Shadow Throne. It is also similar to the Emperor attempting to pass on his spirit to the then baby Anakin Solo, the events of which again occurred during Dark Empire.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_e5d8460d	comment	Unexplained Recovery: It's never made clear exactly how Palpatine came back beyond a vague allusion to the Dark Side (doubling as a Call-Back to Revenge of the Sith). He does state that he outright died in Return of the Jedi, so he wasn't just hiding somewhere after Endor, but beyond that it's left vague. Beaumont Kin, a member of the Resistance, speculates that it's tied to the Emperor's history with cloning technology during the Clone Wars, along with other scientific knowledge and Sith abilities. The novelization is that he did die in Jedi and his appearance here is via the only functional cloned body that he was able to create, with his spirit possessing it.

The Rise of Skywalker / int_e993da98	comment	Equal-Opportunity Evil: Downplayed. In contrast to the old Empire, which was portrayed as subtextually Nazi-like and whose soldiers were mostly British Nazis, the First Order (at least as portrayed in this movie) is fairly multicultural and diverse by human standards, with seemingly more of their officers and Stormtroopers being women, black or South Asian than white men, and coming from every planet in the galaxy. One of the top generals seen in the Chiefs of Staff meeting early in the film is a black woman. However, like the Galactic Empire, they still do maintain Fantastic Racism (in contrast to the visibly multi-species Resistance), with no non-humans among their ranks (aside from maybe Snoke, though his species is unclear — he might pass for human). Most still have English accents though. Presumably (going by a Doylist view) any racism which they had toward other kinds of humans prior took a back seat to simply getting personnel. They keep the pseudo-Nazi aesthetics though.

At the end of the film the Ewoks look up at the sky at a First Order Star Destroyer that's been bisected lengthwise by a Holdo maneuver. When faced with the dilemma of C-3PO losing his memories, the team offers to make a backup for R2, though 3PO declines by saying that R2's storage is useless. After the amnesiac droid meets with R2 again, R2 immediately restores his memories. Leia tells Rey "never be afraid of who you are" when the latter is set to depart to find the wayfinder. When she finds the wayfinder, she encounters a dark version of herself who says "don't be afraid of you are". We learn later that Leia knew that Rey was Darth Sidious's granddaughter but saw her spirit and trusted her. A franchise-wide one. At the end of the film, Chewbacca finally gets his medal. Also franchise-wide: Luke finally Force-lifts his X-Wing from the water. BB-8 offering to give the saber to Rey. Rey declines it, resulting in Leia saying "Never underestimate a droid". During the chase on Pasaana, BB-8 launches a canister of dust above a stormtrooper's speeder, which explodes and blinds him, resulting in him crashing. Rey repeats the line in response.
