I've been calling Rey being a Palpatine since the Force Awakens, does Gamefaqsarchive still exist? I wish i posted this shit on reddit. I was so satisfied with that reveal.

Yeah, it became obvious to me back then in how she fought Kylo Ren in TFA. It was almost exactly like Palpatine during his fight with Mace. Lots of people were talking about it.

It's really the only way of explaining her immediate skill even after just learning about the Force. Otherwise she's just a Mary Jane.

So you're telling me there's some shitty explanation as to why her character was so fucking one dimensional and bland in TFA?

My reasoning for it was weak. I said it had symmetry, with Kylo Ren being born from the light side, yet yearning for the dark. Rey would be the opposite, born the from dark side, yet yearning for the light.

Well, you're not necessarily wrong. The Emperor described them as a dyad in the Force.

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.

Perfectly balanced.

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.

I have no idea whether or not he's a racist, but apparently there are recordings of him using racial slurs so it's a distinct possibility.

You missed the theme of the movie

Like it wasn't subtle either

Luke even outright says the theme in his scene.

How is Luke's legacy tarnished

And Anakin killing the Emperor allowed Luke to live and for the Empire to be overthrown.

Honestly his son is super interesting to me

The son of a Galactic Emperor and a Sith Lord who doesn't seem interested in power plays and force shit who likely hated his father goes on the run with a woman he loves to escape him

That sounds like a story I wanna read
