Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Pitch Meeting

[Music] so you have a Star Wars sequel for me yes sir I do so in the opening text crawl we're gonna find out that Palpatine is alive again and he sent out a transmission to everybody Oh Palpatine is back how is that possible well the dark side is a pathway to many abilities some would consider a natural oh very vague what does that mean it means get all the way off my back about this and don't bring it up again oh okay let me get off of that thing so it turns out he was pulling the strings this whole time like he created snow seriously yep we just we didn't see him cuz he was in a basement with strobe lights it's so strange that we never hinted at this at all whatsoever in any way yeah uh-huh pretty crazy but this was this was always the plan was it though I mean I mean yeah I wouldn't start a trilogy without a road map you know I wouldn't I didn't do that well okay then so what happens in this thing well you know how in the last Jedi we found out that Rey's parents are nobody right yeah between that and the broom kid it seemed like maybe we were going for like a hopeful message like the force can be with anyone you don't have to be related well it turns out that Ray is Palpatine's granddaughter oh she is yeah yeah pretty cool right so that means that Palpatine has gotten you know intimate oh my god yeah no I guess it does oh no oh no no no oh I'm picturing you so am i and I hate it do it so he first sure said that okay maybe we can move on I would literally love nothing more so what happens in the movie well the good guys want to get to Palpatine but to do that they need to get a thing okay but to get that thing they're gonna have to go to a place and get another thing and go to another place and get another thing okay kind of sounds like a lot of fetch quests like in a video game well people love video games that's a good point video games make money so where do they go well they go to Burning Man and they meet Lando Calrissian remember he's from the other movie he is and he's like I have a bad feeling about this he says the thing he says it and then the good guys are gonna get chased by stormtroopers and end up in a tunnel oh that's not good actually it is because they find a dagger that's a clue to the exact thing they're looking for oh wow what are the odds of ending up in that exact spot after a chase astronomical but this is space so that's okay can't argue with that so anyway then Rey heals a giant snake and they get out of there she heals a snake what are you talking about well you can heal people in animals by giving them some life force or something I decided Oh suddenly deciding that the force can do things is tight it is so anyway this dagger has SIF writing on it that only c-3po can understand but he can't translate why because of its programming but actually why to extend the plot a little okay gotcha so they need to go to this other planet to translate it but Chewie gets captured Oh No yeah and he's being taken away on a ship but Rey accidentally blows it up oh my god she kills Chewbacca that's such a powerful shocking moment I can't believe it well that's good cuz it doesn't actually happen what well I want this film to have impactful moments but I don't really want to deal with the actual impact so I'll usually you know undo them immediately oh really yeah so Chewbacca blows up but it turns out he was on another ship so it's okay okay c-3po has his memory wiped and has to say bye to his friends but r2 has a backup so it's okay Wow Rey stabs kylo Ren but then heals them so it's okay could've been an interesting one a planet blows up with the characters we know get off it somehow so it's okay I also not really many consequences at all well when Luke said no one's ever really gone in the last movie I really took that to heart as you know a storytelling device yes sir seems that way yeah so both Luke and Han are gonna come hang out a bit too sure why not so anyway then they're gonna go to another planet to meet a Power Ranger that Poe used to date and a little alien dude named Babu Frick oh what's his deal oh well he's just the cutest little merchandising opportunity I love it so then they go rescue Chewie and they get helped by Huck's cuz it turns out he's a spy now Oh interesting it'll be cool to see how that plays out through the movie oh no he dies right away oh he does yeah we'll see you in the last Jedi we turned him into a little baby boy so I have to replace them with somebody intimidating if you say so I do so then the good guys go to another planet and discover that the dagger points at a thing they need to get to go to a place what the dagger tells them where to go yeah it turns out that somebody made this thing so if you stand in a very specific spot and pointed at the Death Star wreckage it shows you where you need to go and they just happen to be standing in that specific spot and they just happen to be standing in that specific spot Wow Wow Wow so then Ray finds this GPS thing that she needs but then she's confronted by an evil version of herself for about 10 seconds what why does that happen so we can show it in the trailer that's smart so then Rey and kylo Ren have a fight and Finn is also there for some reason oh yeah what's Finn up to in this movie well he's gonna be there for sure that sounds good to me he's also gonna meet some other X stormtroopers that defected too oh that's good driving home the fact that stormtroopers are like real people you know exactly and Finn's also gonna kill a bunch of stormtrooper oh he is yeah he's pretty good at it now but I guess he has no choice right so it's like a somber moment when he has to do it I don't know he shouts woo a lot when he kills them Wow I don't know how this guy feels about stormtroopers unclear sir he also has a big secret he's about to tell ray when he thinks they're gonna die Oh what is it I don't know fair enough and what about Rose what about her well I mean she was a major player in the last movie her and Finn kissed at the end of it right yeah but she has to study so she has to study I mean she would have gone on the adventure but she has like a lot of studying to do well okay then and what about Maz Kanata are we gonna get answers answers about what well in the force awakens han asked how she got Luke's lightsaber and she was like good question for another time oh yeah well that is a good question for sure yeah but like probably best for another time did you forget to pay that off I forgot to pay that off that's okay it happens I mean a lot so anyway then Ray's gonna go confront Palpatine on this planet called X ago okay and the resistance are gonna fight a massive fleet of stardestroyers said Palpatine build so many star destroyers and staff them by being off screen for several movies that works for me so what ends up happening on testicle X ago what did I say well Palpatine is like you know Rey if you kill me my spirits gonna take over your body I guess that can be a thing and then Ben shows up in Palpatine's like ooh a force dyad a force dyad of force dyad so then he turns into a Dementor and starts sucking the life out of them so stuff is just kind of happening huh stuffs just kind of happening so then he throws Ben off a cliff thing oh and then everything's just going awful I mean there are way too many enemies in the space battle oh man it's gonna be tough for the resistance to win now actually it's gonna be super easy barely an inconvenience oh really yeah I can see just when it seems like all hope is lost Falcons gonna be like on your left and a bunch of heroes show up what sorry Lando is gonna be like we're here and a bunch of heroes show up oh very cool and then Palpatine is gonna use lightning to attack Rey and he's gonna be like I am all the same wow wow wow wow and then Tony's gonna be like and I am Iron Man what sorry Ray's gonna be like and I am all the Jedi I love it yeah so he's shooting lightning at her and she's blocking it with a lightsaber yeah yeah and they're struggling but then she uses two lightsabers and that does the trick he gets hit with his own lightning couldn't he have just stopped shooting the lightning yeah but he doesn't that's kind of his thing it does seem to be that guy zaps himself a lot so then Rey dies oh okay but then it turns out Ben isn't dead because falling off of things doesn't really mean anything in Star Wars right and then he transfers some lifeforce to Ray's so she wakes up Wow well they should kiss what they should have a little kissy kiss well I don't really know that there was like a romantic making them kiss okay so they kiss and and then he dies oh he dies oh yeah he transferred the last of his life force to her oh so she can like transfer it back to him now well yeah but she doesn't know savage so then all the good guys are gonna have a big party very fun and Lando and this ex stormtrooper girl talk about how she doesn't know where she's from and he's gonna be like well let's find out what does that mean unclear sir either a spin-off adventure or he's gonna hook up with somebody 55 years younger than it well well that's either exciting or gross potentially both so what do you think overall well it sounds great but one thing's kind of bugging me with that sir we said that Palpatine like transmits a message I just wish we could hear what it was oh yeah I actually had a pretty cool idea about that oh you did yeah yeah yeah have you heard of fortnight what hey guys it's Ryan here hope you like that pitch meeting there

then they go to burning man

seriously though...

For J.J. Abrams, any screen time not devoted to running, chasing, shooting, lightsaber swinging, or exploding is wasted. Major plot points are decided quickly and acted on without hesitation or planning. It was even at the point where major events were present by someone offscreen shouting “something important just happened!” while everyone else is shooting stuff.

So accurate, I hated all the fake deaths took away all the impact of the real ones.

[u/mcgarnikle]

I think the part were Chewie gets a medal was symbolic for how heavily this movie leans on nostalgia and how desperately JJ was trying to please certain parts of the fanbase. You could almost hear him yelling see he finally got his damm medal what else do you people want?

Also with how hard they brushed off Rose I'm surprised they didn't have her die off screen like Poochie in the Simpsons.

"He's just the cutest little merchandising opportunity."

Baby Yoda: "Hold my bone broth."

That pointing the dagger at this specific spot of a blown up death star slowly eroding into the sea was the point that I %100 exited from this whole trilogy.

Are we even pretending anymore...

[u/mr_rivers1]

So there's no scene where Luke wakes up and it turns out the last 10 years was all a dream but he has to get up because it's jaja's funeral today?

Shame.

What the studios fail to recognize is that the fandom doesnt want a rehash of the movies that were already created--they want a new story. The whole Disney trilogy is exactly a tired rework of the Original Trilogy.

Fortnite!? How much did they pay you to ruin Star Wars JJ?
