Why? Is it because he was built by Anakin Skywalker? Nah - it's just another dangling "We're going to kill off another beloved character" tease and even when they wipe out the golden droid's memory, it comes back so quickly and easily, you wonder why they even teased this moment of sadness. Soon, Kylo Ben Solo and the Knights of Ren show up just as Rey discovers a Sith dagger than C-3PO's programming forbids him to read. Rey, Poe, Finn, Chewbacca, BB-8 and C-3PO head out for Passanna to meet Lando Calrissian while R2-D2 stays with Leia in a military base. There's also a spy in the First Order, a subplot that changes nothing in the film other than to remind you that General Hux and Ben Solo probably had a tempestuous affair at one point and there's a thin line between love and hate. Because man, Star Wars is kind of like Catholicism for people who'd rather have Carlos Casteneda instead of John the Baptist. He tells Kylo to find Rey, who is studying to be a Jedi with General Leia Organa Solo (Carrie Fisher), who is more Force-sensitive than a Jedi, you know, until this movie, which has a CGI cut scene that looks like, well, a video game cut scene that shows her training with Luke and realizing that she's going to die and not complete her journey but someone else will. He just plain conjures up a million or so Star Destroyers on a planet that has constant darkness and lightning. So the Emperor does what has never been done before. See: Darth Maul, General Grievous, Count Dooku. Snoke is the most infuriating character in these films, another character who really has no motivation and no reason to exist other than being yet another Star Wars villain set up to be an undefeatable villain only to, you know, by cut in half. It turns out that everything evil in the past few films has come from Palpatine, including Snoke who is just a clone. Kylo Ren (Adam Driver, who isn't howling in a bar or eating ass in this one) obtains a Sith Wayfinder device and travels to the planet Exegol, where the Emperor is recharging. You know, instead of a scroll, perhaps this event - probably the most important thing that's happened in all three of these post Return of the Jedi films, could have been shown to us so we could grasp just how mindblowing it is. The first critical error the film makes is by telling us that a secret message has caused a stir in the galaxy: the Emperor is alive. I don't go to blockbusters to walk away saying, "Yeah, alright." SPOILER WARNING Obviously, everything after this will contain massive spoilers. I sat - well, slept, I'll be perfectly honest - through this too loud and too much installment and I have to tell you my most honest review: Yeah, alright. Don't tell me that the old films in the Star Wars saga didn't come out as often or perhaps we cared too much about them.
Don't tell me I have to read the other books or watch the shows or do my research. Why does Finn have such an affinity for his friends? Why should we care a lick about Poe when he's proven to be too headstrong and willing to leave people behind, yet has nothing redeeming to make up for it? And Rey has every single skill of the Jedi near-instantly, almost a way too perfect character to be true. They're ciphers that we only know the barest of things about.
Some took him into hiding during the Great Jedi Purge, leading the 50-year-old infant to suppress his Force powers as a way to survive.Three movies in to the final part of what is being called the Skywalker Saga and I have to confess: worse than not knowing anything about these new characters - Poe Dameron, Finn and Rey - I honestly don't care about them. Ahsoka filled in some of those blanks by unearthing the fact that Grogu was raised and trained in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant prior to the fall of the Republic. Not only is Grogu an adorable little creature, but his existence is quite compelling to his lack of a backstory. Seeing as Jedi Master Yoda remains as one of the most popular characters to come out of the franchise, a younger version of the same species had instant appeal. When Grogu made his debut in the final moments of The Mandalorian's first episode, the infant instantly became a cultural phenomenon. Rosario Dawson played the former Jedi Padawan in her long-awaited live-action Star Wars debut after serving as a lead character in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Ahsoka Tano revealed the name to Mandalorian Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) after connecting with the Force-sensitive being on Corvus. Officially referred to as "the Child" ahead of season 2's episode, "The Jedi," the infant's real name is confirmed to be Grogu. The Star Wars franchise broke a tradition with The Mandalorian's big Baby Yoda name reveal.
