And MSW says the force ghosts arrive to give Rey a pick me up and that Rey defeats Palpatine on her own ... NOT that the force ghosts destroy Palpatine.JediPaxis replied said which force ghosts appear to defeat Sidious is in flux right now. Said initially it was just Luke and Leia but now he is not sure if it's only them.
if it's Anakin, Luke, and Leia then collectively the Skywalker family is the chosen one you could say.
JP agrees with Ward it sounds like. He said in a reply it was initially just Luke and Leia but thinks things might have changed but he is not sure which ghosts would be in it.!well, we have a bit of contradiction here. JP sources have FG Luke and Leia help Rey while JW sources have all the Jedi revive Rey so she could fight. As you can see, the set up in both scenarios has FG doing some Deus ex Machine shit, but they defer on what and how many FG show up.
My guess it is what the super locked down reshoots were. Ward in a podcast said it wasn't reshoots to fix something but something they planned out and held out as long as possible and filmed with a Skelton crew to keep it locked down.I'm sure that, since it's many FG, we'll see all the known ones plus Leia but it's gonna be Luke who gives the big exposition speech.

It's kind of silly that JJ is going to have two desert planets that look exactly the same in this movie.
And possibly two heavily-tree-filled planets.
The same sort of people rant about TLJ and TFA both of which got glowing reviews.I'm an optimistic person but since so many are being pessimistic what happens if this movie is critically panned
It was only months ago people were having meltdowns over the Endgame leaked plot and proclaiming it ruining the MCU lol. People never learn.To be fair, I can't imagine Tatooine will have more than a minute or two of screentime.
Speaking to the thread in general; when was the last time leaks ever painted a movie's plot in a positive light? I remember both TFA's ("wait, Luke doesn't show up until the final scene of the film?!?) and TLJ's (Snoke dies!) coming off as fairly dire based on MSW and other leak reports.
The leaks seem to focus almost exclusively on the Jedi story and nothing elseI want to be a fly on LFL wall. if leaks are messed up, they are having a good laugh. if leaks are on point in its worst beats, now that's where the fun begins.
That's how it always tends to go for these. It was that way with TFA and recently Endgame.I think these leakers have some major beats correct, but there are things that are... off. And there is a LOT of context/important dialogue missing.
I think this segment might be one of the top 3 I am most excited about.new Empire image seems to confirm the pointless Falcon rescue detour:
it seems this happens after Hux lets the heroes go. Blue light sort of indicates Falcon engine light.
I'm not a fan of this portion of the movie because it seems like a total filler where nothing drives the story forward. It also has the infamous Chewie Death Fakeout where they find out that he was in a different transporter, not the one that Rey crashed with her Hereditary Force Lightning. So basically Canto Bight of TROS.
JB1981 TBH, leaks most likely focus on the Jedi part for its worth leaking. That drives the story, the rest supports it. I mean, the only non-Jedi thing worth reporting was Lando's reveal that he lost a kid like a typical OT character (Skywalker-Solos lost Ben, Palaptine lost Rey and Lando lost Jannah) and that's a lame late-in-the-game reveal that doesn't have any interesting impact. She wants to fight. OK. Next.
That could also be the start of the zero-g battle that's been mentioned
If I am not mistaken didnt Ward mention it in a recent podcast that it happens when Jannah and Finn break into the flagship star destroyer to blow it up in the third act?I don't think that's happening anymore, Paxis didn't mention it at all. It was probably part of Trevorrow's draft.
I think this segment might be one of the top 3 I am most excited about.
Rey, Finn, and Poe together on a break in mission? That sounds extremely fun.
You have really took a turn for the negative haLando is most likely going to be on the Flacon when Falcon saves Finn and Jannah after they blow up the mothership.
Zorii is total Disney + bait. A show I have no desire even to pirate.
Didn't Daisy say in an interview at D23 that it's all explained?I find it alarming that virtually everything has leaked except the explanation for Sheev's survival. The man exploded. They have to explain how he is still alive.

Her parentage WAS explained in TFA, her parents were nobodies who abandoned her. Make no mistake, Rey Palpatine is a retcon.Daisy also originally thought her parentage was explained in TFA, and I can't fathom how she believed Rey Palpatine was in there. I don't for a second think she'd deliberately lie, but I can believe she may be proved wrong about this.
Finding new people was in reference to Luke, with whom she didn't foster a relationship at all in the very next movie.Rey Palaptine was rumored while TFA was still in production. Also, TFA didn't explain that her parents were nobodies but that they weren't coming back (aka isn't related to Han/Luke/Leia) and her belonging is with new people she meets along the way (belong you seek is not behind you, it is ahead).
That line could mean the Resistance, Finn and Co. It meant looking ahead and leaving behind Jakku. It didn't necessarily have to mean LukeFinding new people was in reference to Luke, with whom she didn't foster a relationship at all in the very next movie.
It's almost like they didn't have a plan or something.
