Tbh, there is alot of questionable story telling details in the ST, this includes the Kylo and Rey kiss on Kef Bir for no reason+ the most cringy thing reminding us of the starting explanation: ``Somehow Palpatine has returned. ` `

Palpatine returned in Legends as well. Then, in that same line, they went on to give the explanation in the next line. "Sith Alchemy, cloning." Star Wars has always been cringy. Look at the Prequels. Even the OT. It's all cringy. Difference is, you're not a child now watching it for the first time.

As for the kiss? It makes sense.

Even though Palpatine's return makes total sense if you read Legends, it still does not apply the fact that the ST has much more problems than the OT and PT, First of all: I'm sure we can both agree that the OT is the best of both the PT and ST, but in all honesty, the Force Awakens, was decent, it just started to spiral downwards.

>> Certainly, it has problems, though the blame is that of the audience, not the creative team. I believe most people misunderstand/overlook the ST for what it is.

First of all: I'm sure we can both agree that the OT is the best of both the PT and ST.
>> It certainly is a classic, but ever since I've gone down the rabbit hole of defending Star Wars, the OT when the Special Edition was hated on, the Prequels when everyone thought it was so cringy, and now the ST. Because of this path, all the trilogies hold a special place to me. But now, as the ST is more relevant to my life in allegory to the characters, right now my favorite trilogy is the Sequel trilogy - in spite of watching the OT more times than I can count.

but in all honesty, the Force Awakens, was decent, it just started to spiral downwards.
>> I do agree that the ST is a hard pill to swallow. I think most arguments can be boiled down to this set of facts:

1. Fans at the time were used to movies that were released in a series format with each season being one long-ass movie.
2. The Sequel Trilogy had 35 years of hype built around it.
3. With all of the events that it was trying to cover, there simply wasn't enough time to cover everything. Given all of the edits that were made, film that had been cut, it's no surprise that it's a hard pill to swallow. It's no wonder that people loved the Mandalorian when it came out. It took its time in world-building within his sphere of influence, it explained things slowly so people could digest it. I challenge anyone to create one movie that's two hours long for each season and have it make sense, and have "good writing." (, let's face it, there are worse examples of bad writing. This trilogy is not one of them.)
4. Finally, the role of the ST is to conclude the saga. This is a tall order in itself. Why? Because it has to touch on the many elements of the PT and the OT while telling their own story.

What gets me, is that there are many iconic themes within the Sequel Trilogy, that people aren't picking up on. I've found that this trilogy is one that invites people to think critically of it about the story being told. It really doesn't hold your hand at all, there are a lot of allegories and parallels to draw from it. I should *really* start a web series about it.

I agree with all you say, mostly the critical facts and other things such as Palpatine's Return, the OT being better than the PT and ST combined. I just think that the ST is not good compared to the PT or OT due to sort of weird writing, for example, why would Rey Palpatine name herself 'Rey Skywalker', a person she only knew for a week until leaving, plus, why would Ben Solo be named Ben as his first name after a guy Han Solo only knew for a week or two, not someone important, just a Jedi who he knew until he evaporated. There are many plot holes and somethings do indeed make sense, though, I'm sure we both agree that if General Hux was not the traitor, he would've been a great villain, but it was wasted potential, same with Snoke, he was going to be the new Palpatine, but instead he had to die at the hands of Kylo Ren using Rey Palpatine's lightsaber to ignite plasma into his side.

>> I do also agree that the ST is a hard pill to swallow, the facts as you stated are completely viable, to me and other fans out there that doesn't make any sense in the most part:

1. Luke attempting to kill Ben Solo because he had a bad dream after the OT in which where he tried to find the good in Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker, not giving up, and eventually Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker is redeemed after throwing Palpatine into the reactor.

2. At first it didn't make sense why Palpatine returned, but the blue 'mist' which flew up from the reactor was Emperor Palpatine transferring his Force Essence into a clone body on Exegol, this isn't exactly explained that well in the movies, legends also does go in depth on this field.

3. Why Luke Skywalker called his Lightsaber a 'Laser-sword', or why he threw a 'delicate' weapon of the Jedi aside.

4. If you slow down the Throne Room battle you can see Praetorian Guard weapons disappearing as they turn for dramatic effect.

5. The Hyperspace jump which destroys the ships breaks the lore, as Hyperspace is where they jump into another dimension for light-speed travel.

>> You make a valid argument, but, you must admit there is many problems with the ST, that is clear, sure, some of it's funny, or entertaining, but, the reason why not many people liked it is because of the fact that it mostly uses everything as a joke, lying to its watchers, even the name of 'The Last Jedi' is a lie, hence the scene of Luke Skywalker speaking the words: "I will not be the Last Jedi." And he is not lying, he is not the Last Jedi.

5. The Hyperspace jump which destroys the ships breaks the lore, as Hyperspace is where they jump into another dimension for light-speed travel.

Now that I know we're really getting into Lore, a lot of your other arguments are.. baffling at least. But let's take the wookieepedia explanation and cite some lines in the movie that explain this:

"It could only be accessed through molecular displacement, which was achieved by breaking the speed of light.[5] It was coterminous with realspace, meaning that each point in realspace was associated with a unique point in hyperspace, and all adjacent points in realspace were adjacent in hyperspace as well. Additionally, every object in realspace—such as stars, planets, and asteroids—had its "shadow" counterpart in hyperspace. Aside from those well-established facts acknowledged by all competent astrophysicists and astrogation experts, other aspects of hyperspace admittedly remained a mystery.[4]"

So, there is not a vehicle in the known SW universe that goes 0 to Light speed in 0.0 flat. They certainly do this very quickly, but not instantly, you still need to traverse the entire speedometer to reach light speed. Once you reach lightspeed, you enter another dimension - that's true. But once more, you still travel the distance in real space before you hit lightspeed.

Given that, there are many factors in how long it can take to reach lightspeed, also depends on what class of hyperdrive you have. (There are 15 different classes, with class 1 being the highest, class 15 means it takes you 15 times longer than a class 1 to traverse a distance at lightspeed.) Holdo got really lucky.

In order to make this a viable strategy, you need a lot of mass to take out capital ships. You also need a hyperdrive, which those are expensive. You also need to make each shot count before your enemy invests in gravity well generators (Legends and Canon these devices are used.) There's also the amount of time it takes to create a ship that will adequately carry out this task, you need to make sure that your ship survives the calculations (engines don't get knocked out or your ship pops) before the jump is made.

The situation was ripe for Holdo, and it was still a lucky chance that worked out in her favor. That's how heroic miracles work. That's the same type of heroism stuff like how Han could brag about how he "made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs." What he didn't tell people is that he was stupid lucky.

4. If you slow down the Throne Room battle you can see Praetorian Guard weapons disappearing as they turn for dramatic effect.

I've heard this argument before. To me, this isn't about Lore, this is nitpicking for nitpicking. It may not be that way for you, and that's fine. I'm not the one who wants to figure out how a magic trick works, that ruins the fun. I wanna suspend my disbelief and just enjoy the show. I didn't even notice this point, and I haven't gone back to go see for myself, because I know I'll never unsee it.

I'm sorry that this bothers you so much to make the trilogy unpalatable. Critiquing movies to this degree must really limit your selection of what a "good movie" is.

Did you ever notice in a New Hope, the lens was dirty on some of the shots following the Star Destroyers? You can see the grimy glare on the screen when they pass by. And no, it's not an intentional lens flare. Doesn't bother me though.

I will reply to each question in one reply.

why would Rey Palpatine name herself 'Rey Skywalker', a person she only knew for a week.
- you need to remember, she shared an intimate connection with Ben solo that can't be expressed in movies as we're only exposed to what we can see and hear on the outside.
- second, she spent apparently six months, maybe longer in training with Leia. And she was shown the nature of the force through Luke. Each of them gave her one thing: a sense of belonging. Han as well.
- third Luke even gave her his permission in the accompanying novel to the movie those.
- fourth, remember that some time passed between 8 and 9, during that time, Ben and Rey still had that telepathic connection that they couldn't really control. I imagine they had a lot to talk about. Gonna check their interactions between those movies now.

Before you say that we shouldn't need to read the books for additional context to explain a movie I would normally agree with you. However, this is a 9 movie saga. It might be part die to get some additional context. Much of what is known about star wars is thanks to books. If you're going to argue about Lore without doing the minimum of reading the books, thatd be weird. Like getting mad that a cake doesn't have enough frosting when you don't like frosting...

1. Luke attempting to kill Ben Solo because he had a bad dream after the OT in which where he tried to find the good in Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker, not giving up, and eventually Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker is redeemed after throwing Palpatine into the reactor.

You're looking at this as if the attempt was made; it wasn't. Luke Ignited his lightsaber for a second - he didn't raise or move the lightsaber in any way to prepare for a strike. This is far more mercy than he spared for his father who had simply threatened his sister. Luke sansed the dark side growing within his nephew, and this is where the issue begins.

In a book that prequels the ST, "Shadows of the Sith" it talks about how Luke treated his Nephew, and we also see this in the Mandalorian/BoBF with how he treated Grogu with Mandalorian. Luke kept the Jedi tradition of forbidding emotional connections. Leia saw that her son was going to die, and that's why she put away her saber, she was emotionally compromised. Ben Solo suffered the curse of his Uncle's Shadow, he wanted to prove himself and make his uncle proud, but Luke treated him much like how the council treated Anakin when he was young. Even worse, Luke severed the connection to his nephew AND started training him at a later age.

Luke could have killed his nephew. When Luke went and to look into the mind of his apprentice, he saw it was far worse than he could have ever imagined. He saw a vision, not a dream, a vision. Like how his father had visions, how Luke had visions of his friends while he was on Dagobah. He saw what Ben would become. Luke saw billions of lives lost, he saw the death of Han, Leia, and many others. Luke had that same impulse to defend those he loved as he did on the Death Star, but now the threat was amplified. Luke knew that this would be the only time he could make that choice. And for the briefest moment, he thought he could stop it. But, Leia had trusted him with her Son. Because he was Luke Skywalker. Jedi Master. A legend. The one who always saw the good in people who fall. Luke honored that vow, and the moment passed as soon as it had started. But when he looked down, he saw the frightened eyes of a boy whose master had failed him.

It makes total sense. Luke was faced with a greater challenge, and met it letting his hands be soaked in all that blood. His exile is self-explanatory with regard to that much shame.

Don't you think? I mean, Luke was Luke to his detriment. He was SO consistent.

Wait are you crediting the books for going into depth and detail, while criticizing the ST for not explaining something that happened in the OT? Maybe you should read the current canon of books.

"'The Last Jedi' is a lie, hence the scene of Luke Skywalker speaking the words: "I will not be the Last Jedi." And he is not lying, he is not the Last Jedi."

Going to point to the thing I said earlier about the Jedi Order not learning from its mistakes. THe title is correct, just not in the way you think. Luke is the Last of the conservative (traditional) Jedi Order. There will be other Jedi, it is just time to accept that a progressive mindset must be adopted or they will never learn and the Jedi will fall. Luke learned this at the end through Yoda, that's why he decided to act. He knew that Rey would be in good hands with his Sister. So he said to his former apprentice.

"I will not be the last Jedi." And he wasn't. In the traditional sense, he was (title.) In the progressive sense (through Rey) he wasn't.

3a. Why Luke Skywalker called his Lightsaber a 'Laser-sword',

I don't recall this, when did this happen? What's the context? The tossing it

3b. or why he threw a 'delicate' weapon of the Jedi aside.

They're certainly not delicate. Sabers fall to the floor often. Hell, remember when Commander Cody saw Kenobi's saber fall in front of him in Episode III? How far up was Kenobi?

As for throwing it? That's because he saw it, knew what it meant, and wanted nothing to do with it. The reason why that action upsets the audience (myself included) because we were eagerly awaiting Luke to bust out his Jedi Masterness. We were with Rey right there, we had that same emotional buildup. It was time for Luke to be "General Kenobi" and answer the call of the princess Leia once more. Years ago, he fought in the wars. This was the resistances most desperate hour. Help us Luke Skywalker, you're our only hope. Rey's face said all that.

And in poetry, Luke did the exact same thing Ben Kenobi did, He confronted his former apprentice to buy the "good guys" some time to escape. He did so at the cost of his own life.

Pretty awesome imo.

We may not agree on everything, somethings we do not remember, but the fact that he did say this: ` `What am I supposed to do? Go out with a laser-sword and face down the whole First order? ` ` 3b. I remember hearing Luke tell Rey something about respecting the weapon of the Jedi, making us presume it is delicate. Though, Rey may not specifically identify as a Jedi, there will, in your words, always be another jedi, meaning the title is indeed still a lie. 1. Though Luke even thought of killing his nephew makes it feel like he's a different character than what we see in the OT. Also, I will research what they said during the time between 8 and 9. It doesn't really bother me, but it is quite annoying when watching each battle in 0.25x speed to just see, unlike most fight scenes, a weapon just disappears? Though I didn't read too deep into Wookieepedia, I do see my mistake not about the Hyperspace jump Point.

The title is a lie if you look at it literally.

Obviously, Luke told Rey to respect the weapon more after having "seen the light" and also nodding that it was his own lightsaber telling her that "this was my gift to you, and you'd throw it into the fire?"

When Luke said "laser sword" he was being cynical. I mean, seriously. You're not extending any thought to any of it. You're seriously taking the entire trilogy at face value and saying how bad it is without looking deeper. It's downright depressing. I don't know how fans can refer to themselves as fans when they do this.

Try these... First one puts the saga into context on why Luke's failure as a teacher is important to the saga as a whole, how his job was to teach Rey how to break the cycle. Which, is allegorical to generational trauma of abuse within a family. He gets to be proud at the end of his life knowing that he left a legacy in better hands than when he found it - confident that not only he has been redeemed, but the Jedi as a whole.

"The Greatest Teacher, Failure is." by HFP
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kjEnDj7K30&t=0s

The second video showcases why Ben Solo was not a good sith. When watching these videos you need to take the audio commentary quotes by the characters as a conversation that is both meta and for the characters themselves.

The second one is half an hour long, but I'll be damned if any fan of any trilogy does not shed one tear.

"The Last Skywalker" - by HFP
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eQmk_GR59I

Watchem as many times as you need, there's so much that the editor points to that does the other two trilogies so much service and explains why this trilogy is misunderstood because as I said earlier, it's concluding the other two trilogies while attempting to tell its own story in its own context of the conclusion.

You'd be the first who didn't find a new appreciation for the series after watching these if you don't like them. Though again, I implore you to watch them if you really wanna enjoy star wars.

Like Luke said, "Come back, let go of your hate." You love Star Wars, you've only forgotten.

-- Cont from last: is concerned.
-- Can lift rocks with ease. Again, affinity, mental discipline. Luke was always skeptical of the force, that's what ESB was about. Rey never was skeptical, she believed in it with every fiber of her being. She was already far ahead of Luke when Luke was her age. That's not her fault, that's Luke's. Believing in something greater than yourself is not symptomatic of a Mary Sue. Sorry.
--Vader is revealed to be his father, explaining connection with the force. Ah, so because Rey's affinity isn't explained until the next movie, it doesn't shouldn't make sense. This argument is not an argument. It's cherry picking timelines.

On one hand, people complain that the movies are too alike; they're reskins. Others complain that they're nothing alike. With this summation of arguments you're presenting, it seems like you're picking and choosing which stance to take so long as it suits your narrative that she's a mary sue. Which, she isn't.

Remember that time she stabbed Kylo Ren in the back out of rage when he dropped his lightsaber? Meaning, unarmed? Or that time she thought she blew up Chewie? Or when she went into the darkside well on Ach-to? Or how Kylo Ren repeatedly paralyzed her in TFA? Yeah, those examples all break the Mary Sue Argument in all 3 movies. Because a Mary Sue, true to the trope, Can. Not. Fail. A Mary Sue. Suffers. No. Consequences.

Your arguments are dishonest and a joke, my man.

--Force Training: False comparison. Luke had only spent a few weeks with Yoda **at most** and only a few days with Kenobi **at most**. You're comparing Luke in ESB with Rey at the end of her trilogy. Rey, who received six months of training with Leia (roughly.) To make this a fair comparison, you'd have to use Luke from RotJ.
--Lightsaber training Rey Fought a conflicted, wounded sith apprentice on a breaking planet while channeling the force as Luke channeled the force in a New Hope when shooting the Death Star making his torpedoes do a 90 degree downward turn in an exhaust port JUST big enough to fit a torpedo. Luke, who was able to pull his lightsaber from ice while badly wounded and suffering hypothermia while spending only a day with Kenobi.
--Swimming: In TLJ when she falls into the lake, you see her struggle and does this weird dog paddle. It's also entirely plausible that in star destroyer wrecks, there were left over water tanks that she could swim/dip into. Also, Rey was seven when she was given up by her parents. She could have muscle memory from before they left her.
--Rey overpowering Luke. Luke cut himself from the force as Obiwan did in Kenobi. We see in Kenobi that when one stops practicing how to channel the force, you lose your strength and your ability to focus, especially when overcome with mental trauma like PTSD as both Kenobi and Luke had. Who said Luke even wanted to fight back in earnest? I'm sure if he actually wanted to stop her, he would have.
-- Only completed 2 of the 3 lessons? Ambiguous point. Which lessons? And did you miss the whole message that Yoda said the code of the Jedi Order was wrong? it was their institution that enabled the creation of Darth Vader. And when did Luke complete the Trials to become a knight? When did Luke do half of the apprenticeship that Anakin did? Seems to me that there's some double standards here no matter which way you slice it; I'm only responding to what you're saying here. Except, I doubt these are points you came up with on your own as I've heard all these arguments before.
--Willingly lets herself get captured knowing it's a trap. Didn't Luke willingly walk into a trap and let himself get defeated? Then he got his hand cut off only to have it replaced by a life-like replica, complete with nerves leaving it be not a meaningful consequence. Or is that different? Because, I don't see how it is.

-- Snoke mental assault: Throughout the first movie, she struggled to fight against it, only breaking free once from the mind trap. That specific trap was from his apprentice. Given her affinity through the force from palpatine, it is entirely plausible that she had a natural affinity for mental discipline with the force. Given her world was empty before, she was able to apply Yoda's teachings easily as she did not suffer the biases that Luke suffered when Jedi were still legends. When Rey existed, they were myth. She was able to suspend her disbelief and commit herself to the discipline of "Judge me by my size, do you?" by Master Yoda. As such, she was able to develop an immunity to what Snoke came to offer. AND/OR (lol andor, see what I did there?) Snoke underestimated her as Kylo Ren had done. Also reasonable. Possible Snoke didn't know who she was either.
-- Rey fighting off the Praetorians. Luke, having never sat in an X-Wing, while admitting some experience with the skyhopper air speeders in a New Hope and bullseyeing womprats with them, that's similar in comparing what it's like to drive a Cessna-172 versus flying an F-22. Some more double standards? Also, we know that Rey and Kylo were sharing a mental connection. If I am to understand how their connection worked, they shared eachother mentally. She gained all of his teachings, his hate, as he gained all of her experiences. This is why we see them change personality in the last movie.. If you go back and watch, remember that through half the movie, Rey goes dark. Marked by when she thought she blew up Chewie.
-- Except she wasn't a nobody. We know this. I already talked about how Luke mayn't have known who she was. Perhaps, that's what info Kylo was working with.
-- Escapes from Kylo Ren unscathed. Luke fought Darth Vader and suffered Palpatine, but did not suffer the degredation of the sith lightning as Palpatine did. nor was he injured by vader. Luke didn't even receive any burns or anything. Unscathed. Double standards, again.
-- Knows how to operate Milennium Falcon. Didn't Anakin know to how to fly an N-1 Nubian Starfighter in spite of never having stepped into a cockpit in his life??? BuT aNaKiN wAs ThE cHoSeN oNe. So, again, how was Luke able to fly an X-Wing without training? THen there's also the bit when it comes to salvaging imperial star destroyers, one might find craft in the hangars as you disassemble them and you get a rudimentary understanding as far as practical experience is

That's true, from a certain point of view. Empire, Jedi, and the prequels were money grabs. Otherwise, why was "STAR WARS" renamed to "Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope? The truth of what you're saying is that the PT wasn't a moneygrab by Disney. But, it was *certainly* a moneygrab.

Comparing in context: At the time the RoTS: Commander Cody was a useless character. Someone who was meant to represent "the in charge trooper." Beyond that, there was nothing to him. He could've been anyone. I mean, I could pick apart any character who was killed in Order 66 Montage. I could point out to the "blue guy with horns on his head who stands next to Palpatine all the time)" It depends on how you define useless. Everyone serves a purpose unless they're extras, even those serve a purpose.

"I'll take film-making for 500, Alex."
Empire Strikes Back screenplay wasn't written by George Lucas. IMDB says credit goes to Leigh Brackett, and Lawrence Kasdan. The story was by Lucas, but someone else wrote it. (What is ghost writing? Correct!)
Lawrence Kasden co-wrote Return of the Jedi. Jonathan Hales Co-wrote AotC.
> Best Lightsaber Duels in SW History.
Maybe for some, but for others, no. That's a subjective take and not fact. Next.
> Meme goldmine.
Again, debatable.

Ok the meme goldmine is not debatable, there are literally hundreds of iconic memes in the prequels, that you can’t find anywhere else in Star Wars.

The lightsaber duels don’t look like a little girl is playing with bat and screaming (cough, cough, REY)

By that logic... Episode V or VI because he talks for like a minute in each.

Ashoka: Had 2 days, 18 hours and 30 minutes of a TV series (Clone Wars), and Rebels in which that TV show was one day, 13 hours and 30 minutes.

Rey had 6 hours. Cry more.
