That's one of the weird things that throws me off with the ST. I'm used to a Star Wars series that is linear in film style. To me it makes it more epic. I see TLJ flashbacks and the "force back" in TFA and it feels like I'm watching a TV show.Coach wrote:Were there any flashbacks in the original trilogy? I worry about leaning on those too much for storytelling in Star Wars. But the fact that I can't immediately remember perhaps means it doesn't matter.

Illuminating. Thank you.

Re: Star Wars: Episode IX (2019)
The thread has a short description of what was shown. Nothing of note, really.
Scott Ladewig
@Ladewig
We saw a blockade runner in an abandoned looking hangar. An explosion knocking Stormtroopers in a starship hangar bay. Kylo Ren in a white room looking at the Vader helmet. Rey, Finn, Poe in Falcon cockpit.
Lando briefly. Rey with Chewie's bowcastet. Finn in some abandoned looking ship interior.
Kylo is not wearing a helmet.
