I'm hoping its an original story and not taken right from the video game.


Any story of the Old Republic from the Revan era has to include the Sith Emperor, which would be a tough character to portray on screen.


You know if they don't do Revan or Bane, I would love to see a movie about the original Jedi Civil War that lead to the banishment of the Jedi who became Sith and the Great Hyperspace War.

A new KOTOR game would be much more exciting

I have my doubts that we'll see that.


The focus is pretty much on SWTOR and adding single player content in the fall to wrap up the current story line.

Yup, I'm excited as well. Personally I've enjoyed the new films (yes, even the Last Jedi), and I'm looking forward to seeing how Abrams is gonna wrap all of this up.

I can't wait for the end when Rey rams her lightsabre through Rose's chest, decapitates Kyle and kneels at Palpatine's feet and asks what his bidding is.


Then we see the Death Star three blowing up Endor.

They should throw an Easter egg into the movie during the epic final battle... in the faint distance, they spliced in a clip of the Macho Man throwing his famous Elbow Drop onto an unsuspecting Stormtrooper, who then blows up.

It'd be funny to see Star Wars fans completely lose their #### over something completely unrelated and uncalled for in the Star Wars universe.

Don't know how reliable it is, but saw a rumor that Disney tested 6 different endings for the Rise of Skywalker and were not happy with the reactions to any of them.

Nothing to say of rumors that there have been re-shoots up to now, and that there is such a significant plot dump in ix that there are also rumors that it could be broken up into 2 parts.

I googled "Star Wars Episode 9 Six Endings" and "Star Wars Episode 9 Two Parts" and didn't return any results for either, so not sure where you guys are getting your rumors from. But it'd be nice if you at least had somewhat credible links instead of spreading what looks like misinformation.

Well if you want a credible link

Jordan Maison: https://www.starwars.com/news/contributor/jmaison

tweeted out that 8 different endings were tested in front of audiences. Not necessarily alternate endings though but more likely different cuts of the same general ending.

https://lrmonline.com/news/star-wars...e-been-tested/

It does seem they may have locked into an official ending now though based on what is out there.

Ok that makes me feel slightly better, 8 cuts of the same ending. I was like man if they are really just fishing for a positive response on an ending this is horrible story telling.

I'd rather they picked a story and stick to it, love it or hate it, than just fish for what people are going to approve and what is the safe pick.

I realize the risk of saying this after TLJ :P

But that's not really at all what you said.

A giant corporation focus testing something huge like this to gauge reactions isn't big news. The important part of your post is this:

"Don't know how reliable it is, but saw a rumor that Disney tested 6 different endings for the Rise of Skywalker and were not happy with the reactions to any of them. "

No where in his Tweets or follow-ups or even in that article you linked does it talk about Disney being unhappy with the reactions to the ending, or any response to the endings at all.

I am can't find the original link to what I read and I said I am not sure how reliable it is. Sorry. Will retract that statement.

Even so, screen testing 8 endings seems like a very big net to cast.

Not sure if it's a legit source, it could be the ramblings of a random youtuber, the article has some spoilers as well (nothing that I found to be major but don't read if you don't want to see them)

A new rumor indicates Disney and Lucasfilm are remaking almost all of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

“I have Star Wars info, they are still shooting. They were having to remake almost the whole movie as what they tested as the movie was a complete pile of flopping sh*t.”

“This is not some kind of casual 2 week reshoot. This is almost a 75% remake. They shot the thing so there were 6 possible main edits. And even then there was no way to put it together that would not have flopped.”

Sounds sketchy to me, its impossible to reshoot and re-edit that much of a movie and get it out by its release date.
