Fixing the Star Wars - The Rise of Skywalker | The Rewrite Lab
In this video, I dive deep into Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and give it the ending it deserves. While the movie is divisive in the Star Wars community, I want to bring positivity to the story and focus on what worked while also fixing some of the major issues.
I’ll break down key moments like Rey’s powerful use of the Force to heal Kylo Ren, her final confrontation with him on the Death Star wreckage, and the influence of Leia's sacrifice. Plus, I’ll rework Palpatine's return, the underdeveloped characters, and more to create a stronger, more cohesive narrative.
Stay tuned until the end as I explain why I kept the title The Rise of Skywalker—even though I almost changed it to The Rise of Palpatine.
Watch as I give my rewrite for a more hopeful and satisfying conclusion that stays true to the heart of Star Wars.
