The only "setup" is the Opera Scene in RotS and that's not even directly related to how Palpatine comes back, as far as we know.
The OT was a complete story, there was nothing even remotely setting up Palpatine surviving in it.
Yea he's def talking about cheating death and him maybe having a hand in Rey's origins.The only "setup" is the Opera Scene in RotS and that's not even directly related to how Palpatine comes back, as far as we know.

I would definitely prefer if she was like Anakin in that way.Yea he's def talking about cheating death and him maybe having a hand in Rey's origins.
I sincerely hope she isn't his biological granddaughter though.
Jason thinks that Luke and Leia's ghosts don't show up anymore to help Rey fight Palpatine but disembodied voices instead.
Hmmm. Some inconsistencies happening here
Also, D-O's toy description fits MSW's new post where originally the leaks said D-O was found on the abandoned ship on Pasana
Thought the original leak was that he was find in a droid shop on Kijimi?Also, D-O's toy description fits MSW's new post where originally the leaks said D-O was found on the abandoned ship on Pasana

Now they're saying that was changed in reshoots? Ha
Then Leia and Luke were there as Force ghosts to defeat Sidious. Now they're not there.... but just voices?Honestly at this point I dont even know haha
There's too much to keep track of at this point
I thought the original claim with DO was that he was Zorii's droid, then it was that he was from Babu Frik's workshop on Kijimi, and now it's that he's from Ochie's ship.
Anyway, I'll be disappointed in the Force ghosts don't show up at the end.
Why not? This should be Rey's story. Anakin got his trilogy and so did Luke. Rey deserves the sameCan you imagine the rage if Rey defeats Palpatine on her own?
Actually, I'd be pretty pissed too. Sheev only deserves the full cavalry against him.

Rey and Kylo are gonna take him down. I hate the force ghost ideaBecause Sheev deserves a better death.
Frankly, I didn't like his demise in ROTJ either. It's a great emotional moment for Vader, but knowing how powerful Sheev is in canon, he went out like a punk.

Its Lucasfilm's fault for calling this the trilogy the conclusion of the Skywalker Saga.Why not? This should be Rey's story. Anakin got his trilogy and so did Luke. Rey deserves the same
That scene is perfection to me. Vader is more powerful than him anyway. But I hate power levels talk too!!
I definitely hope it's not cut
Hopefully that gets cut too.If ghost Luke and Leia fighting the Emperor is cut it doesn't make sense to make the Luke and Leia lightsaber dueling flashback the beginning of the movie.
first look at Babu Frik. The tiny Anzellan droidsmith, first glimpsed in toy form during the Triple Force Friday livestream event, works among the Spice Runners of Kijimi and can reprogram or modify virtually any droid — regardless of the security measures protecting its systems.
Doesn't really count when they just undo Luke/Anakin's story stuff to give it to "Rey's story".This should be Rey's story. Anakin got his trilogy and so did Luke. Rey deserves the same
Nah I don't see how it undoes a thing. Luke refused to give into the dark side and was willing to die for his belief in his father. Anakin Skywalker came back to the light and turned on Palpatine.Doesn't really count when they just undo Luke/Anakin's story stuff to give it to "Rey's story".
Yes Palatine's heir destroying the Sith once and for all in the final chapter of the Skywalker Saga is going to be HUGELY controversialI've only read the detailed first act leak (though obviously I'm unopposed to skipping through comments about the other acts). I'm loosely familiar with the goings-on later in the movie.
The Rise of Skywalker may prove equally as divisive as The Last Jedi, but for separate reasons. I may have to avoid the internet for a couple of months again...
...because I'm pretty sure I'm going to love it.
I love it because it's ballsy.Yes Palatine's heir destroying the Sith once and for all in the final chapter of the Skywalker Saga is going to be HUGELY controversial
Jason's sources have seen (multiple versions of) this month's trailer, its narrative centerpiece apparently being the scene where Kylo meets Sheev early on in the film:
Worth noting is this suspiciously-similar description posted to the speculation sub a week ago:
Don't ask how I saw it, I won't tell you. I'm going off memory and only saw it twice so not everything will be perfect. It will air on Monday Night Football after Force Friday.

Yep.
There was no Rose in any of the TLJ trailers either.Yep.
Also, sounds like noRose yet again in any of the trailers if that's pretty much true.
She was in the international trailer.
You mean on horseback at 2:00? You can't even really see her
Yep, it's hard to make her out but she's there on the front of the Fathier with Finn behind her.
