My favorite character in the SW world is Kyle Ren, and my favorite scenes took part at the Cantina, and then probably Dagobah. But it’s the expanded world, the non-Skywalker stuff, that I’m mostly interested in.
Edit: ok my favorite characterS are Han+Chewie. Then Kyle.
But I totally get that I'm in the minority here, especially for someone my age. And I agree that Kylo Ren is a great character. He's one of my favorites as well. I think that's partly why I'm not as opposed to his "redemption" as many others are. I still think it would be cool to see him willfully embrace the darkness and actively fight redemption and the light. But if he turns, I'll probably be fine with it. It all depends on how it's done.
Let me tell you, Homer Simpson is cock of nothing!

That poster looks kind of lame. Why does Palpatine look like a cartoon character?

I would adore this movie and trilogy so much if they give us Rey as full dark sith mode. Fuck everything and then she is the main baddie.

Its been pointed out or discovered that they seem to have used a scan of one of those hot toys or sideshow collectible busts of Palpatine.
That’s that hard to believe. Mcdiarmaid was on set and they do full scans and endless photoshoots of all the actors now.
He looks slightly different here cos it isn’t his original body we’re going to see in the film. He’s in someone else’s

According to making Star Wars he’s possessed some acolytes body and fights Rey and Kylo they team up against him.VinylGuy wrote:so thats a fact? Its palps in somebody´s else body?
I don’t know how that would work on screen but MSW are never wrong.

Shit. My bad. I find it incredulous cos why would Rey and Kylo be fighting only to team up against Palpatine. That’s gonna take some seriously good writing. If true.

Re: Star Wars: Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker
Nah. It's either a vision or (less likely) Palpatine possesses her and that's how Kylo redeems himself. But I'd say there's less than a 5% chance of Rey going full dark side.VinylGuy wrote:Hope its Rey full dark side against Kylo.dimejinky99 wrote:tragabigzanda wrote:Holy shit, you didn't spoiler this?dimejinky99 wrote:According to making Star Wars he’s possessed some acolytes body and fights Rey and Kylo they team up against him.VinylGuy wrote:so thats a fact?
