Wasn't Anakin supposed to be in it at one point? His voice was in it at the end, but I honestly don't think the rumours about his ghost being it were true. Fan hopes mostly. God I would’ve loved to see Hayden Christensen return. Seeing Harrison Ford was great enough, but I was really holding out for Hayden.

Would require a ten minute long explanation scene lol. If he was in the previous films it might have made more sense.

Whilst I know we disagree about TLJ it at least led off where the last movie began and continued it's plot points (even if we disagree on our opinions of what was done with them) The obvious path forward was to have Kylo be the big bad, that's clearly set up in TLJ, then JJ is just like "lol the Emperor is back". It's really jarring, and the reasoning for it happening is flimsy at best. But I remember saying to you that by the end of TLJ I was so confused as to how I felt about Kylo. Id no idea what I was supposed to think. He was written really confusingly and just thought he was there to tell us "this is a new Star Wars, everything you knew is dead". By the end I didn't take him seriously as a big baddie. Ive done a huge U turn on him now though cos of TROS. Was glad to see him sellotape up his mask. Im looking forward to a TLJ rewatch though now that its all over. I think his motivation was that in order to really change we need to abandon things that came before, I don't understand why fans are obsessed with conflating that with the series in general. It also wasn't the point of the movie are you're not really supposed to agree with the villain. That's also another motivation that was abandoned for no reason by TROS. I need to re watch it as well, haven't seen it in ages.
