Josiah_Is_Back 12/30/19 11:18:28 AM #14:	EvalAngell posted... All bloodborn Skywalkers are now dead and Palpatine's legacy lives on with Rey...regardless of her adopting the Skywalker name. Also Luke's legacy is forever tarnished and him/Vader defeating the Emperor means nothing since he came back. Sequel trilogy effectively shit all over the OT. The entire point of TROS was that your legacy or destiny is not determined by your bloodline. Hence Rey being a Palpatine did not condemn her to the Dark Side; she killed the Emperor and adopted the Skywalker name, symbolically spurning her bloodline forever. And Vader still brought balance to the Force in Return of the Jedi. You can even hear Hayden Christensen's voice speaking to Rey at the end and he says "Bring back the balance, Rey; as I did." Not trying to defend TROS. There are plenty of reasons to dislike it, but I think your antipathy is misplaced. <cite>Josiah_Is_Back posted [p:932236977] in Just saw S...
