    Storyline

    Edit
    While the First Order continues to ravage the galaxy, Rey finalizes her training as a Jedi. But danger suddenly rises from the ashes as the evil Emperor Palpatine mysteriously returns from the dead. While working with Finn and Poe Dameron to fulfill a new mission, Rey will not only face Kylo Ren once more, but she will also finally discover the truth about her parents as well as a deadly secret that could determine her future and the fate of the ultimate final showdown that is to come. —Blazer346

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Unused footage of Carrie Fisher shot for Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015) was incorporated by digitally removing the background and superimposing it elsewhere. Visual effects were used to change her wardrobe and add gray to her hair so the footage would match her appearance in Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017).
    • Goofs
      On Kef Bir, the Millennium Falcon is landed by sideways ramming it into a hill, leaving a trail of destruction, due to the landing gear being defective. The Falcon however always had vertical take-off and landing capabilities, so this harsh landing is unnecessary.

    Empty And Disconnected Series Of Events
    Abysmal!!

    Same silliness once again. Also, JJ Abrams is without a clue. Full of annoying useless characters. Also, Rey is powerful out of nowhere again and even practies magical medicine.

    FAQ29

    • How did Palpatine build thousands and thousands of giant battleships, and recruit millions of soldiers without a single person knowing?
    • How can the team fall through quicksand and end up falling into a cave? Shouldn't the sand fall through the cave as well?
    • How can Rey suddenly learn how to force heal while Darth Vader, being strong in the force and with many years of training, can't do it?
