Re: Star Wars: Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker
I think TFA and Rogue One in different ways tries to be funny, in one or two scenes it’s a bit much, but in each case it’s mostly a success. Both are enjoyable and sometimes funny as well. I wouldn’t say there is more humor in TLJ, probably less, but where it tries, it mostly fails. Porgs are the opposite of funny to me. Perhaps better for kids, although I wouldn’t call it a kids movie.

Humour is subjective lads.
I don’t want slapstick Star Wars.
Solo came perilously close to it at points.
Let’s not go that way again.

It’s hers?
Who owns the ship in the trailer? The same one we see leaving Rey in tfa?

She's inside in the lego set, and has her name on it, on the other toy.

I’m told the other ship in the trailer and tfa is nothing to do with her.

I think she might be the ex of Poe after something else I read, possibly in this thread.

Think that’s misdirection. She’s Rey’s mom.

I could see that. That she was the one that left her on Jakku. Perhaps kept an eye on her.dimejinky99 wrote:She’s either the mom or she was given Rey by the parents to save and hide her from ________

She didn’t do a great job of looking out for her in fairness
