Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) Non-Spoilers! (1 Viewer)

I interpreted that scene as he spoke to her as if she knew.

Well, maybe we'll find out next year.

 

[Jake Lipson]

Rian Johnson is on record saying that as far as he is concerned, it's the truth.

Of course, J.J. could change it -- but I doubt it. We know he liked The Last Jedi, and I don't think he would have taken the Episode IX job with the intention of contradicting it.

 

[dpippel]

You're probably right Jake, but he'd really only be contradicting Johnson since the film does leave it as an ambiguous situation. As I said, we won't know for sure until IX is released.

 

[Tino]

I agree. Anything is possible.

Funny thing about these pictures: Just yesterday my son (who is 9) said "Wouldn't it be cool if we see other rebel bases in Episode IX, and one of them is on Endor and Lando Calrissian is charge of that one?"

[And I said, "Really? You want there to be Ewoks?" And he said, "Oh, Ewoks! Yeah!"]

When I heard they were shooting in a jungle, I was thinking Yavin (probably since it was featured pretty heavily in Rogue One and Rebels) but I like the idea of seeing Endor again. In the end, it's probably a new planet.

Perhaps re-canonizing Mimban, from Splinter of the Mind’s Eye? It begins with a mystery... the severed arm of Darth Vader is found on a jungle planet near a large pit, not far from Yuzzum skeletons...

 

[SamT]

It's a soft remake of Return of the Jedi!

[NERD]Mimban has already been brought back into canon. It's where Han meets Chewie in Solo.[/NERD]

I'd rather see them do something *new*. We've already had Jaaku serving as a stand-in for Tatooine in TFA. Do we really need a jungle planet in the third film, just like ROTJ? No. NO Endor. NO Yavin. Please. There's an entire UNIVERSE out there! Surely the filmmakers can be a little more creative with locales than doing even more rehashing.

Endor wasn’t really a jungle.

Endor wasn’t really a jungle.

More of a forest but close tho. Enough green planets.

Agree 100%

Seriously tho is it that hard to

come up with new locations? What kind of planets haven’t we seen. Maybe it is.

Seeing Yavin in Rogue One and Rebels is fun and makes sense but I'm all for seeing a new planet now that it's 30 years later.

 

[dpippel]

Endor wasn’t really a jungle.

Close enough but yes, it was basically northern California.

 

[Chris Will]

Try something new? You mean like TLJ. Seems that didn’t go over very well so, I’m not surprised if they decided fall back on the “traditions” of the series.
