Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker

Re-watched this on the plane. Most of the time when the Star Wars nerds talk about this movie, they complain about Emperor Palpatine “returning” somehow. But I don’t have a huge problem with that. The series has firmly established cloning, projecting your consciousness through space, and mind control. So the emperor having another body in which to beam his psyche is fine with me. There are plenty of other logic problems in this, which I don’t mind that much. Bottom line: you have to hand it to Daisy Ridley, who carries this series with physicality and charisma. IMHO, she’s an excellent bearer of the Skywalker legacy.
