Requirement for bigger brakes, beefier driveline components, and turbo plumbing (therefore increasing weight, therefore further increasing the need for bigger brakes etc.); engineering costs of a turbo system just for this car (the Ascent turbo is mounted under the engine block, much like the WRX turbo is mounted…

Perhaps Toyota is the one that will bring balance to the force.

He knew he was directing the first movie of a trilogy. If he didn’t specifically write out the next two, he definitely had a general idea of how it should play out and where it should go. And RJ not only knew, but decided to consciously go in a completely different direction. I wasn’t a huge fan of TFA, but man, TLJ…

I’m not opposed to answering and closing the mystery box. I’m frustrated by the lack of adding anything to build off of in the next film. I said it above, but TLJ feels like the conclusion of a story rather than the middle piece. As a result, it feels “off.”

From a story structure perspective, you don’t resolve the big mystery in the second act though, do you? Part of what feels disjointed about TLJ is that it feels like, if anything, it should be the third act. It ends largely where TFA begins.

A huge fleet is hiding (some under the ice!) in Exegol (I found the name in tracklist of John Williams’ score) for how many YEARS???!!! Who’s feeding these guys? Where is the fuel coming from? (TLJ proves fuel runs out quickly.) Supplies? Staffing? Is there food in Exegol? I bet not. How are the huge Star Destroyers…

Logistics do not exist in this trilogy.

That hyperspace crap started with Force Awakens. They very clearly setup a 15min timetable at the end of the movie to try to increase tension. But all it did was break hyperspace.

She used her (previously unknown to us) Force powers to contact her evil son and changed his name from Kylo Ren back to Ben Solo, mindfucking him and doing things to what remained of his conscience.

Also how did Kylo get to Exogal with an older generation Tie fighter (presumably one he found on the Death Star 2) when they famously didn’t have hyperdrives? 

your whole paragraph of questions ...

The main thing that really bothered me over the last two films is this: The New Republic still had a military and a fleet(Should be multiple fleets). All their ships did not get blown up by the Death Planet©. Even if the remainder of the New Republic government surrendered, more than a few fleet commanders and systems…

Kinja is acting up on me so I hope this publishes. I enjoyed the movie. Like TLJ though I have a major bone to pick with it. Hyperspace travel isn’t and has never been instant teleportation. The Rise of Skywalker takes place over the span of 16 hours. In 16 hours

They go to the desert planet (name forgotten)
They go to…

Being authorized to change an extension and being authorized to say anything you want are two different things in my mind. I don’t know enough about the situation or her role in the company though other than her being a security engineer. I just know if I saw a message like that from a person on my security team, I…

I dunno. This will be unpopular but...

I work in tech and trust me there’s more to it than a big mean company shitting on the little guy here.

It’s not, though. It would be the ugliest car in Kia’s lineup by a fair margin.

it doesn’t help that the story was already wrapped up in the original movies.

I think, in the not too distant future, the trilogy approach to the sequels will be viewed as a terrible mistake. Mandalorian, Rebels, and Clone Wars all prove SW works really well as a serialized story. This pressure to wrap up a forty year story in three movies, when one of the movies is a remake and the sequel…

LOTS of people play this game. It’s worth billions.
