Ehhh I'm going to be honest. I liked Fin a lot more with Luke's lightsaber than Ray. Maybe I just got too much of a 'chosen one' vibe for Ray, especially near the middle-to-end part. It was about as subtle as a club to the head there. And I just found Fin a better character.
Speaking of Nines, that apparently some Basic-level Stormtroopers (just going off the lack of an orange patch on his shoulderplate)have these electric-baton things capable of going toe-to-toe with a lightsaber is pretty damn impressive, and that it's even shown to exist is a nice sign of technological advancement. I want to see more of them!
And just one last thing: JJ, no more superweapons! This is a galaxy at war, or soon will be, show more actual warfare! Let's see how the New Resistance deals with good old AT-ATs and such!

Thats because she is a Skywalker.....that family cant escape the Chosen one trope....its practically ingrained in their dna.lol also there are some hints that Finn may be force sensitive so there is a chance that he could also get some jedi training in the future. Well, there is a lot of speculation that the spin off movie "Rogue One" is going to be the "Saving Private Ryan" or "Fury" of Star Wars movies. Its about the stealing of the original Death Star plans and remember "A lot of bothans died to bring us this information" |

I think it's a common misconception about the Bothans. They died in episode 6, getting info about the Death Star 2. I don't think anything's mentioned in ep 4 about who got the plans and how many died in doing so for the first one. Aside the ship at the beginning, a lot of people died there.

None of these spin-offs sound that fun to me

The Obi-Wan one is weirdly the one I'm most excited for. Mostly because in the one issue solo series of his we saw the start of him essentially becoming a Tatooine Vigilante sort of Samurai Jack style, but with TK. Which could make for a really fucking awesome movie if done right.
"Thats because she is a Skywalker.....that family cant escape the Chosen one trope....its practically ingrained in their dna.lol"
What do you mean practically lol.
As to Superweapons, I could take or leave them, though something like the various used to make fleets of ships ones would be cool.

Can I just say that with the full breadth of hindsight the whole Sequel Trilogy thing was decidedly NOT worth it?

Worst might be a stretch, but it might be one of the worst things to happen to some existing cinema because DAMN they did this shit nasty. Rise of Skywalker was fucking agonizing. I will never get over the sheer madness that the plot depends on to keep moving.
HOW. HOW CAN YOU TELL ME THE SUPER ADVANCED PLANET KILLER STAR DESTROYERS DON'T KNOW WHICH DIRECTION IS UP? THEY'RE ALREADY IN THE FUCKING AIR WHAT IS THIS BULLSHIT?!

No they need a tower to tell them , and if not that, well maybe an admiral ship will do. But that's fine coz it can be invaded by people on animals.... coz um.... endor had cute bears that beat AT-AT's so like... the same?

Sad part is is that there was just so much potential wasted. |
