Holy space battle Batman! It’s the one night of the year, where jocks and nerds unite, and nothing brings people together better than Star Wars. The final trailer of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker just dropped during Monday Night Football. You wonder who knows less about their subject, jocks and Star Wars or nerds and football.
What a doozy of a trailer that was, the finale, the final showdown, countless decades of fandom have been waiting for this exact moment. Whether you love the newest trilogy or not, it’s all coming to a close sooner than a light speed warp. So regardless of your feelings, enjoy this because you truly don’t realize what you’ve had till it’s gone.
All of the questions you’ve wanted to be answered will finally be revealed (hopefully) as JJ Abrams steps back in the director’s chair to finish what he started. If Disney hadn’t already made enough money at the box-office this year, tack on another billion-plus because Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is going to be huge. JJ is promising us the biggest space battle in a Star Wars film, or it at least seems that way, the fight we have all been waiting for between Kylo and Rey, and the answer to the question on everyone’s mind, how the heck as Palpatine been alive for so long, and how did he survive?
In classic Star Wars fashion, they have teased a lot. Palpatine is back, and they showed the slightest glimpse of him, well perhaps. He’s teasing that all of these people coming together is meant to be, so again could be alluding to Rey and Kylo, who knows. Everyone will have to find out for themselves very soon when this either destroys more childhoods or brings peace to the force once and for all!
