Top 1 Videos about Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker I'm NOT Watching

Legit or nitpicks?

There are 40 of them. I'm guessing it's at least 80% nitpick.

---

Probably a lot of nitpicks. Like when they complained about fire in space in TLJ

---

angry joe?

think i'd rather die

There are only 40 of them. I'm guessing they left out the nitpicks.

I didn't say that.

I dug this. Obviously RLM set the bar no one is going to touch but god this video made it look worse and worse.

Just throw a bunch of shit and assets and explosions together exactly like Batman v. Superman and boom, there's your movie.

Most of them are actually legit.

Sadly this movie is a mess.

I had high hopes for the Disney trilogy and the movie had some amazing moments but I felt it ended on a sour note :(

---

This was actually enjoyable

I thought so too. There's also a two hour long review from this same YouTuber that's pretty good also.

---

I'll go ahead and save it for later, haven't watched the movie yet. Plan to this Tuesday/Wednesday though.

Well I just watched it. Didn't seem like nitpicks to me,

---

The moment that bugged me the most was when Finn randomly went "Oh that ship over there is broadcasting the signal,", even if that's explained away as some kind of Force sensitivity it's still stupid lazy writing.

Why didnt Luke use his X-Wing to go to the salt planet in TLJ? I remember people saying that it was broken (even though that was never stated), yet in TRoS Luke lifts it up for Rey and she takes off in it.

... because he didn't physically go to there.

Were you paying attention?

They really blew it with Finn. They had alot they could have done in this movie with his character that never happened. There's lots of stuff in the movie that's like this sadly. It's like they wanted to make an episodic sequel whilst ignoring every single story arch in this trilogy. I'm still frustrated at how the film was handled.

Damn 40 plotholes? That is insane.

---

Can someone list the plotholes in the video so we don't have to watch it?

That's more work than actually watching it.

Seems your comprehension is lacking. Ill make it clear.

Why did Luke force project himself if his X-Wing was fully functional?

Don't insult the guy, it seems you aren't grasping the fact that he didn't need to use the X-wing if he wasn't actually leaving the island.

---

Alot of these plot holes really make Rey seem like a Mary Sue.

---

My big plot hole is just what the hell Snoke really was. Was he a mouthpiece for Palpatine, or did he have his own free will? Clearly some of the First Order were from the old Empire and recognized Palpatine, so why did they openly follow Snoke if they knew Palpatine was around?

If he was just a mouthpiece for Palpatine, then why waste money building the Starkiller base when Palpatine has his Final Order ready to go?

Would've taken too long. Hyperspace travel is not instantaneous and the Resistance needed him right then.

Obliged.

But we already knew this 2 movies ago. If anything it all means studios need to stop hiring Chris Terrio.

Besides, he would've gotten annihilated immediately if he was physically there and wouldn't have bought the Resistance enough time.

Of all the faults TLJ had, Luke force projecting himself is not one of them. It makes perfect sense why he would do that.

Again the point is being missed.

I know that Luke didnt physically leave island. Im saying that that Luke had a way to get to the salt planet without killing himself. His sacrifice would have carried more weight if was there in person.


---

He didn't need to physically go there.

He had no intention of physically going there.

He intended to die on that planet, and he did.

You're very adamantly sticking to a "plothole" that is intrinsically flawed and being quite a dick about it.

---

Cool Ill drop it.

---

Here are the first 5 from the video:
1. How did Palpatine survive the Death Star's destruction?

2. Why did Luke train Rey after being worried about the darkness in Kylo?

3. Why wasn't Palpatine's son force sensitive?

4. Hyperspace skipping, how does it work? (Goes against established canon)

5. How do Tie Fighters light-speed skip?

Which I'm pretty sure none of these fall under the category of "plot hole".

Imagine dreaming to become a youtuber and the content you make is insubstantial trash

---

I don't care to watch this, but I will at least comment that I can actually list more brainfarts and mistakes in RoS than in AotC lol.

His intention was to distract Kylo Ren so the Resistance could escape. He was out of practice and would likely get his shit wrecked if he had been there in person and Kylo would have been given the satisfaction of killing Luke Skywalker - stalling him with the force projection lasted longer and he completely screwed with Kylo's head.

Plotholes

One of the few actual plotholes in that video was Rey still having Luke's lightsaber. I was thinking about it the other day. Her and Kylo destroyed that thing in TLJ. It was shattered into pieces. Doesn't make any sense for her to have it

Sure, it was just something that bugged me. I guess it was just one of Rians subversions.

Do you mean Anakin's original lightsaber?

It's explained in some out-of-movie materials that Rey uses force healing for the first time to repair the crystal inside.

Which I think is sloppy since we don't see it, but

But Luke's lightsaber is green.

But Luke's lightsaber is green.

And the green one didn't appear with Rey in episode 9.

Exactly. So where did this other saber come from? Anakin had one, Obi-Wan had possession of it, handed it down to Luke, which eventually ended up in Rey's hands, which was destroyed in TLJ.

Rey takes the pieces of the saber with her in TLJ. So you fix the crystal, you fix the saber...

and Rey repaired it. Whats the confusion?

"Something happened offscreen between the two films. It's a plot hole."

Being too dumb to infer something apparently makes something a plot hole these days
