It is not a story a Roman would tell you…

    You know, I really had fun in Rise of Skywalker purely because Palpatine returned. I didn’t even mind the hand-wavey way he was brought back, because it meant Palpatine was about to Palpatine all over the place.

        Yeah, that was my favorite part of the movie. I couldn’t care less about the actual plot

            Kinda.

            Original plot was that a guy goes nuts and makes kebab out of kindergarten kids with his scifi insta-grill machete. It was a slasher movie.

            Then the studio thought they went too far and forced them to make some political drama around it.

            Then it was too boring, so studio ordered them to Tom Clancy it up, so they added some manly stuff.

            After that the original slasher stuff didn’t quite fit, so they just cut it off. Spielberg was allowed to keep his name in the movie anyway.

            End result was a hodgepodge that didn’t make sense. Just stuff glued together with shallow, non-believable character motivations.
