Summary

It ’s been over 5 years sinceStar Warsreleased the last sequel , yet the dealership still deny to elaborate on the best part ofThe Rise of Skywalker . by and large speaking , The ascent of Skywalkerfelt disconnected from the relaxation of the subsequence . After Rian Johnson ’s scandalous decision to kill off Supreme Leader Snoke inStar Wars : The Last Jedi , The Rise of Skywalkermade the even more criticized decision of “ somehow ” bringing Palpatine back . And because recentStar Warsprojects are concerned with explain how Palpatine returned , the franchise has pretermit to explore the good parts of the sequels .

Star Warshas pay too much aid to give Palpatine ’s resurrection ; it ’s not deserving exploring further . Instead , it ’s time to begin tying in some of the Modern ideasThe Rise of Skywalkerintroduced , rather than ignore its entry in Canon in all . To this goal , Rey ’s upcomingStar Warsmovie should confront the sequels ’ mysteries . Groups like the Church of the Force andPalpatine ’s Sith Eternal cultistsseemed important in the sequel , yet were scarce excuse . Above all else , Star Warsneeds to expound on oneThe Rise of Skywalkermystery pertaining to the Force .

The Force Dyad Is A New Key To Understanding The Force

The Rise of Skywalkerintroduced the idea of aForce dyad , involving two characters being connected by fate through the Force . Rey and Kylo Ren ’s dyad was established early oninStar Wars : The Force Awakens , and only mature as the sequel go on . Despite being disjoined individuals , they could share memories and experiences with one another even if they were on other side of the wandflower . The Force dyad is , by far , one of the most intriguing and sinewy view ofThe hike of Skywalker . And ifStar Warsactually gives it more contingent , it could redefine the Force .

Star Warshas retrospectively added a few more particular to the Force dyad inThe rising of Skywalker’snovelization , which suggests that a Force distich can not shape between two people on the same side . alternatively , Force dyads hold fast to the age - old tell that “ contrary attract . ”Because Rey aligned with the light side of the Force and Kylo Ren with the dark , they were able to spring a dyad . It ’s even potential that Kylo ’s switch to the wanton side near the end ofThe ascent of Skywalkercaused an imbalance in their dyad , ultimately leading to one of their death .

The Rise of Skywalker go forth many motion about Palpatine ’s return unanswered , but Star Wars has shed new light on how the Emperor was upraise .

Star Wars Is Fixing Rise Of Skywalker In Canon… But Not The Dyad

Ever sinceThe lift of SkywalkertarnishedStar Wars’reputation in the dramatic art , most of Disney’sStar Warsprojects since then have attempted to repair the damage the sequels did . For illustration , The MandalorianandThe Bad Batchare trying to explicate how Palpatine “ somehow ” fall . But by focusing on fixing the uncollectible aspects ofThe advance of Skywalker , Star Warshas forgotten to praise the skillful parts of the film . The pic showed how the Sith Eternal had been waiting for a Force dyad to appear for generations , yet almost no other projection has bothered cite it .

agree to Palpatine , the Force dyad was something “ as unattackable as biography itself . ”By tapping into Rey and Kylo ’s span for a mere second , Palpatine was able-bodied to restore much of his misshapen clone ’s body . And by drawing upon the balance of their life force , he was able-bodied to unleash the enormous lightning blast that disabled the Resistance ’s fleet . If Rey and Kylo had had more time to develop their mogul , its likely they could have performed even more psyche - bending feat than Palpatine ’s lightning good time . Their unequalled Force healing abilities only scratch the surface of the dyad ’s ability .

While it was n’t sacrifice the screentime it merit , the conception of a Force couple in The Rise of Skywalker was perfectly in line with Lucas ' imagination .

Star Wars Needs To Focus On The Force Dyad Going Forward

WhileThe MandalorianandThe Bad Batchbuild a fundament for Palaptine ’s resurrection , it ’s up to Rey’sNew Jedi Ordermovie to give more details on the Force span . Adam Driver ’s income tax return as Kylo Ren seems unlikely , meaningRey ’s dyad is uncompleted . Nevertheless , this givesStar Warsthe chance to show how well Rey functions without her other one-half in the Force . Daisy Ridley ’s character was meant to be the side of the sequels , yet her character arc was stifled by the war between the First Order and the Resistance .

As of writing this , Daisy Ridley is the only confirmed cast extremity of the upcomingNew Jedi Ordermovie .

In any case , the power the Force dyad afforded Kylo and Rey needs to be explored in futureStar Warsprojects . Disney fix the two of them up to become the most potent Force usersin the franchise , but squandered the opportunity by down off Kylo too quickly . Technically , Kylo ’s lifeforce still lodge in in Rey after he revived her at the end of the sequel , think of she may still have access to him and the dyad ’s power through the Force . Either way of life , moreStar Warsprojects need to address why the Force dyad is so special to the enfranchisement .
