Why is it called THE RISE OF SKYWALKER (you ask with snark & sometimes willful ignorance)?

• Rey rises, completes her first story, & becomes who she chooses to be.

• Ben rises, is redeemed, fulfills Anakin’s wish of stopping death, & achieves immortality in the Force.
• Leia has risen (albeit informally) to the rank of Master, completes Rey’s training, reaches Ben, & achieves immortality in the Force.

• Luke rises to his full potential (represented by the X-wing at last), & gets Rey back on the path, thus redeeming him as a Master.
All of these Skywalkers rise. They rise to the occasion, to their tasks & destinies, literally, metaphorically, mystically, etc.

Just been seeing this question a lot in regards to the *not-news* news. Let’s dig beneath the surface for like two seconds. Anyway, enjoy some J.J.
