McDiarmid merely said three words, amongst loud cheers from the crowd: Roll it again. Followed by a mic drop.

Hes way too smart for these noobs. Star wars: the rise of skywalker the imax 2d experience. Achtung, Spoiler! So gut ist der neue „Star Wars“-Film wirklich 10 Bilder Erste Bilder aus „Star Wars: Der Aufstieg Skywalkers“. Foto: dpa/ Der neue „Star Wars“-Film „Der Aufstieg Skywalkers“ beginnt hektisch, wird in der zweiten Hälfte aber rührend und episch. Wir haben ihn gesehen. Eine Filmkritik mit kleinen Hinweisen. Regisseur und Drehbuchautor J. J. Abrams stand vor einer Mammutaufgabe. Nicht nur soll der „Der Aufstieg Skywalkers“ die Geschichte beenden, die 1977 ihren Anfang in den Kinos genommen hat. Der Film soll auch jene Fans versöhnen, die mit dem Vorgänger „Die letzten Jedi“ alles andere als zufrieden waren. Leider scheitert Abrams zunächst damit. Dabei fängt der Film gut an. „Der Aufstieg Skywalkers“ kommt anfangs ohne Dialog aus. Nur Musik untermalt, wie der Bösewicht Kylo Ren die Spur zum finsteren Imperator Palpatine aufnimmt und schließlich auf ihn trifft. Das ist beeindruckend inszeniert. Danach aber wirkt der Film nur noch getrieben. Er nimmt schnell Fahrt auf und hält das Tempo hoch. Vieles wirkt jedoch belanglos: Schnell reisen die Helden Rey, Poe Dameron und Finn von Planet zu Planet – es sind leider viele Welten. Das alles wirkt so hektisch und schnell, dass kaum etwas davon haften bleibt. Schlimmer noch: Es lässt einen kalt. Hinzu kommen Logiklöcher und erzwungene Handlungsstränge. An einer Stelle beispielsweise stürzen die Helden am einzigen Ort in der Wüste ab, an dem man im Sand versinken kann. Und natürlich finden sie dann in einem unterirdischen Höhlengang auch das, was sie gesucht haben. Das ist nicht sehr überzeugend. Leider tut dem „Aufstieg Skywalkers“ auch nicht gut, dass man die 2016 gestorbene Carrie Fisher als Prinzessin Leia eingebaut hat – mit ungenutzten Szenen aus den vorherigen Filmen. Das wirkt fremd, künstlich und bemüht. Gleichzeitig werden noch so viele neue Charaktere eingeführt und Geschichten angerissen, dass es für mindestens einen weiteren Film gereicht hätte. Auch wenn manche Figuren wie der Droide D-O offenbar nur den Spielzeug-Verkauf ankurbeln sollen, aber wenig zur Handlung beitragen. Vieles wirkt wie eine Entschuldigung, gerichtet an die zahlreichen Fans, die den Vorgänger „Die letzten Jedi“ als zu statisch oder zu uninspiriert empfanden. Aber Regisseur Abrams übertreibt sein Versöhnungsangebot in den ersten 60 Minuten so sehr, dass man fast die Lust verliert. Es ist nur das großartige Zusammenspiel der Schauspieler und die dezente Ironie, die bis dahin ein wenig versöhnen kann. Doch gerade als man fast schon enttäuscht ist, wird etwa zur Mitte des Films alles anders. Nach dem imposanten und auch einzigen Lichtschwert-Duell verändert sich der „Aufstieg Skywalkers“. Es folgt ein für den Handlungsverlauf entscheidender Moment – der hier nicht verraten werden soll –, der zwar wenig überzeugend ist, aber so rührend in Szene gesetzt, dass er tatsächlich bewegt. Danach gewinnt der Film an Struktur, Tiefe und Emotion. Wirkte Daisy Ridley im Vorgänger noch etwas hölzern, überzeugt sie nun erneut als Widerstandskämpferin Rey. Sie ist überwältigt, aber auch verängstigt von ihrer Macht – und ihrer wahren Herkunft. Dieses Rätsel wird nun tatsächlich gelöst. Oscar Isaac dagegen spielt Poe Dameron als zweifelnden Anführer, der wenig von einem strahlenden General hat und erst von der „Star Wars“-Ikone Lando Calrissian ermuntert werden muss. Auch Luke Skywalker hat einen Auftritt als geisterhafte Gestalt. Dieses Mal ist er sehr viel mehr der weise Lehrmeister als der kauzige alte Mann aus „Die letzten Jedi“. Abrams hat die Figuren tatsächlich besser im Griff als Regisseur Rian Johnson im Vorgänger. Dann beginnt mit dem langen dritten Akt eine Achterbahnfahrt der Gefühle. Aus den Trailern kennt man bereits die bunt zusammengewürfelte Flotte des Widerstands. Wenn sie im Film auftaucht, ist das ein ergreifender Moment – aber auf jeden Hoffnungsschimmer folgt ein Tiefschlag. Ganz sicher kann man sich nie sein, wer nun überlebt oder stirbt, ob man ein düsteres oder ein optimistischeres Ende erwarten soll. Das ist so mitreißend und in grandiosen Bildern inszeniert, dass die Gefühle einen immer wieder überwältigen. Zumal Imperator Palpatine nichts von seiner Boshaftigkeit und Niedertracht verloren hat. In „Aufstieg Skywalkers“ wird indes klarer, über wie viel Macht er tatsächlich verfügt. 23 Bilder Diese Stars waren bei der Premiere des neuen Star-Wars-Films. Foto: dpa/Chris Pizzello Das alles mündet in einem Finale, das eine tiefe Verbeugung vor dem Anfang der Film-Saga aus dem Jahr 1977 ist. Die Geschichte der Skywalkers wird buchstäblich begraben und lebt doch fort; in einer grandiosen Schlussszene, die Fans tief berühren wird. Für sie wird zudem ein Fehler korrigiert, der im allerersten Teil gemacht worden ist. Dennoch werden nicht alle Fragen beantwortet. Wie beispielsweise Palpatine den tiefen Sturz in „Die Rückkehr der Jedi-Ritter“ überleben konnte, wird nur angedeutet. Ebenso unklar bleibt, welche Bedeutung der Planet Exogol für die finsteren Sith hat. Am Ende hat es J. Abrams dennoch geschafft, die Mammutaufgabe zu meistern. Dank einer zweiten Hälfte, die alles hat, was „Star Wars“ ausmacht: grandiose Bilder, epische Momente und berührende Szenen.

Star wars: the rise of skywalker disney

The conclusion to the Skywalker odyssey comes to a very satisfying conclusion. I've grown up with Star Wars and yes, there are issues that I have, but those are primarily directed at Disney & critics of the series. Based on prior reviews, I was expecting Phantom Menace and the reality is I watched the 4th or 3rd best Star why the 10? Because critics are ridiculous to give this movie anything lowere than a 6. I can't believe Jar Jar was Palpatine this entire time. Luke Skywalker and Disney can Go Force Themselves. Fcuk me, pause for breath so we can maybe process what you're saying.

Star wars: the rise of skywalker mojo. Star wars: the rise of skywalker an imax 3d experience. Streaming Wann startet "Star Wars 9: Der Aufstieg Skywalkers" auf Netflix? Wann startet "Star Wars 9" auf Netflix? Oder gibt es den "Aufstieg Skywalkers" nur auf Disney+ zu sehen? Die Lage ist kompliziert. Foto: Disney "Star Wars 9" läuft noch in den deutschen Kinos, aber Fans machen sich bereits Gedanken, wo denn der "Aufstieg Skywalkers" streamen wird. Die Frage ist: Wird es "Star Wars 9" auch auf Netflix geben? Zu früh? Am 18. Dezember 2019 hatte "Star Wars 9: Der Aufstieg Skywalkers" erst seinen Start in den deutschen Kinos, schon fragen sich die Fans, wo man den letzten Film der Skywalker-Saga streamen kann. Dabei sollte doch die Antwort auf der Hand liegen: Star Wars 9" auf Netflix wird nicht gehen, weil sich doch der neue Streaming-Dienst Disney+ ab 31. März 2019 in Deutschland) die exklusiven Streaming-Rechte an sämtlichen LucasfilmProduktionen gesichert hat. Oder? Denn ganz so einfach ist es dann tatsächlich nicht im Bezug auf die exklusive Lizenzierung der Lucasfilm-Inhalte für Disney. Wann gibt es "Star Wars 9" auf Netflix? Früher hieß es immer, man würde auf die Auswertung eines Kinofilms auf Video warten. Dann hieß es, man warte auf die DVD, danach auf die Blu-ray. Heute spricht man in der Regel davon, dass man nicht ins Kino geht, sondern darauf wartet, dass der Film auf Netflix erhältlich ist. Viel beschäftigte Menschen, vor allem Eltern junger Kinder, warten lieber auf die Netflix-Streaming-Auswertung als mühsam einen Kinoausflug zu organisieren. Wann aber gibt es "Star Wars 9" auf Netflix? Aber ist das die falsche Frage? Ist doch bekannt, dass es J. J. Abrams' Abschlussfilm "Star Wars 9: Der Aufstieg Skywalkers" exklusiv nur auf Disney+ geben wird, vermutlich schon Ende 2020. Bei dem Film wusste man schon im Vorfeld, dass der neue Streaming-Dienst Disney+ bereits gestartet sein würde. Doch anders verhält es sich da schon mit den anderen "Star Wars" Filmen. Wann gibt es die "Star Wars" Filme wieder auf Netflix? Bereits 2012 schloß Disney mit Netflix einen Deal, der es dem Streaming-Dienst ermöglichte alle "Star Wars" Filme in den USA anzubieten. Bereits 2017 aber teilte Disney mit, dass es keine Erneuerung der Vereinbarung geben würde, um die Filme später auf Disney+ zu überführen. Langsam wandern seitdem Disney und Lucasfilm Titel von Netflix zu Disney+ rüber. Aber laut eines Bloomberg Berichts sollen alle "Star Wars" Filme bereits 2026 zurück zu Netflix kommen, so der komplizierte Deal mit den Zeitfenstern bei den Lizenzierungsrechten. Ob es dann auch in Deutschland "Star Wars" wieder komplett mit allen neun Filmen bei Netflix geben wird, muss sich noch zeigen. Doch ab Ende 2020 kann man sich erstmal auf "Star Wars 9" auf Disney+ und nicht auf Netflix freuen. So hätte das ursprüngliche Ende von "Star Wars 7" alles geändert. Welche neuen "Star Wars" Filme und Serien folgen auf "Star Wars 9" Das hatte Schöpfer George Lucas ursprünglich geplant für die neue "Star Wars" Trilogie. Das war anders in der "Star Wars 9" Version von Colin Trevorrow. Zu den Kommentaren Neueste Videos auf Beschreibung anzeigen.

Abrams. It is the third installment of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, following The Force Awakens (2015) and The Last Jedi (2017) and the final episode of the nine-part " Skywalker saga. a] It was produced by Lucasfilm and Abrams's production company Bad Robot Productions and was distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. The film's ensemble cast includes Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Anthony Daniels, Kelly Marie Tran, Naomi Ackie, Domhnall Gleeson, Richard E. Grant, Lupita Nyong'o, Keri Russell, Joonas Suotamo, Ian McDiarmid, and Billy Dee Williams. It features the second posthumous film performance by Fisher, who died in 2016 and appears through the use of unused footage from The Force Awakens. [1] The Rise of Skywalker follows Rey, Finn, and Poe Dameron as they lead the Resistance 's final stand against Kylo Ren and the First Order, who are now aided by the return of the deceased galactic emperor, Palpatine. After the new trilogy was announced following Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm in 2012, it was originally reported that The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson would write the script for Episode IX. In August 2015, Colin Trevorrow was hired to direct and to write a script with his collaborator Derek Connolly; both ultimately retained story credit with Abrams and Chris Terrio. In September 2017, Trevorrow left the project following creative differences with producer Kathleen Kennedy, and Abrams returned as director. Principal photography began in August 2018 at Pinewood Studios in England and wrapped in February 2019. Post-production was completed on November 24, 2019. With an estimated budget of 275 million, it is one of the most expensive films ever made. The Rise of Skywalker had its world premiere in Los Angeles on December 16, 2019, and was theatrically released in the United States on December 20, 2019. It received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the acting, action sequences, musical score and visual effects, but criticized the plot, pacing, and perceived departures from the themes and plot of The Last Jedi. It has grossed over 1 billion worldwide, making it the eighth-highest-grossing film of 2019, and the 35th highest-grossing film of all time. The film received three nominations at the 92nd Academy Awards ( Best Original Score, Best Visual Effects, and Best Sound Editing) 7] as well as three at the 73rd British Academy Film Awards (also Best Special Visual Effects, Best Original Music, and Best Sound. 8] Plot [ edit] Following a threat of revenge by the revived Emperor Palpatine, Kylo Ren obtains a Sith wayfinder, leading him to the uncharted planet Exegol. There, he finds Palpatine, who reveals that he created Snoke as a puppet to control the First Order and lure Kylo to the dark side. Palpatine unveils the Final Order — a secret armada of Star Destroyers — and tells Kylo to find and kill Rey, who is continuing her Jedi training under Resistance leader Leia Organa. Finn and Poe Dameron deliver intel from a spy that Palpatine is on Exegol; Rey has learned from Luke Skywalker 's notes that a Sith wayfinder can lead them there. Rey, Finn, Poe, Chewbacca, BB-8, and C-3PO depart in the Millennium Falcon to Pasaana, where Luke's search for Exegol ended. On Pasaana, the group encounters Lando Calrissian, who points them to the wayfinder's last suspected location. Kylo learns where Rey is through their Force bond and travels there with his warrior subordinates, the Knights of Ren. Rey and the others discover the remains of a Jedi hunter named Ochi, his ship, and a dagger inscribed with Sith text, which C-3PO's programming forbids him from interpreting. Sensing that Kylo is nearby, Rey goes to confront him. The First Order captures the Falcon, Chewbacca, and the dagger; attempting to save Chewbacca, Rey accidentally destroys a First Order transport with Force lightning. Presuming that Chewbacca has been killed, the group escapes on Ochi's ship. Poe suggests traveling to Kijimi to have the Sith text extracted from C-3PO's memory; the process reveals coordinates to a wayfinder. Rey senses that Chewbacca is alive, and the group mounts a rescue mission. While Kylo searches for Rey, the group infiltrates his Star Destroyer with the help of Zorii Bliss, an old acquaintance of Poe's. Rey recovers the dagger and has visions of her parents being killed with it. Kylo informs her that she is Palpatine's granddaughter; the Sith Lord had ordered Ochi to recover Rey as a child, but her parents hid her on Jakku to protect her. General Hux saves Poe, Finn, and Chewbacca from execution, revealing himself as the spy. He permits the group to escape on the Falcon, but is discovered and executed. The group arrives on Kef Bir, where Rey locates the wayfinder on the remains of the second Death Star; upon touching the artifact, she has a vision of herself as a Sith. Having tracked them, Kylo destroys Rey's wayfinder and duels her. Dying, Leia calls to Kylo through the Force, distracting him as Rey impales him. Sensing Leia's death, Rey heals Kylo and takes his ship to exile herself on Ahch-To. There, Luke's Force spirit encourages Rey to face Palpatine and gives her Leia's lightsaber. Rey leaves for Exegol in Luke's X-wing fighter, using the wayfinder from Kylo's ship. Meanwhile, Kylo converses with a memory of his father, Han Solo; he throws away his lightsaber and reclaims his identity as Ben Solo. Palpatine has one of his superlaser-equipped Star Destroyers obliterate Kijimi. Upon the group's return to the Resistance base, R2-D2 receives a signal from Rey. The Resistance follows Rey's coordinates to Exegol, where she confronts Palpatine; he demands she kill him to transfer his spirit into her. Lando brings reinforcements from across the galaxy to join the battle. Ben overpowers the Knights of Ren and joins Rey, but Palpatine drains the pair's power to rejuvenate himself. He attacks the Resistance fleet with Force lightning and incapacitates Ben. Weakened, Rey hears the voices of past Jedi, who lend her their strength. Palpatine attacks her with his lightning, but Rey deflects it using the Skywalker lightsabers, killing him and herself. Ben uses the Force to revive her at the cost of his own life; Rey kisses Ben before he dies. The Resistance destroys Palpatine's command ship, leaving the armada trapped over Exegol. As people across the galaxy rise up against the First Order, the Resistance returns to their base to celebrate. After the celebration, Rey visits Luke's abandoned childhood home on Tatooine and buries the Skywalker lightsabers, having built her own. A passerby asks her name; as the spirits of Luke and Leia watch, she replies, Rey Skywalker.

Production [ edit] Development [ edit] In October 2012, Star Wars creator George Lucas sold his production company Lucasfilm, and with it the Star Wars franchise, to The Walt Disney Company. [42] Disney subsequently announced the Star Wars sequel trilogy. [43] In June 2014, it was announced that Rian Johnson, writer and director of The Last Jedi, would write a story treatment for Episode IX. [44] In August 2015, Colin Trevorrow was announced as the director of the film; 45] he was to write the script with frequent collaborator Derek Connolly. [45] 46] In April 2017, Johnson stated that he was not involved in writing the film. [47] In February 2016, Disney chief executive officer Bob Iger confirmed that pre-production on Episode IX had begun. [48] Carrie Fisher died in December 2016. Her brother Todd later said, She was going to be the big payoff in the final film. She was going to be the last Jedi, so to speak. 49] In late April 2017, Disney announced that the film would be released on May 24, 2019. [50] A month later, filming was expected to begin in January 2018, 51] but this was later pushed back to August. In August 2017, it was announced that Jack Thorne would rewrite the script. [52] On September 5, 2017, Lucasfilm stated that Trevorrow had left the production following creative differences. [53] The Hollywood Reporter reported that his working relationship with Kathleen Kennedy had become unmanageable after failing to deliver a satisfactory script, despite writing several drafts. [54] Johnson was rumored as the top choice to replace Trevorrow as director, 55] but stated "it was never in the plan for me to direct Episode IX. 56] The next day, it was announced that J. J. Abrams, the director of The Force Awakens, would return to direct the film, 57] and that the film's release date would be moved to December 20, 2019. [58] The story team met with George Lucas before writing the new script, 59] which Abrams co-wrote with Chris Terrio; 60] Trevorrow and Connolly retain story credits. [61] 62] d] The story was rewritten to some extent before filming was completed. [65] The film was produced by Abrams's company Bad Robot Productions, Kathleen Kennedy, and Michelle Rejwan. [60] Before filming, Episode IX was initially given the working title Black Diamond, which was then changed to TrIXie, 66] most likely to insert the roman numeral "IX" within the working title. [67] The title, The Rise of Skywalker, was announced at April 2019's Star Wars Celebration in Chicago. [68] Casting [ edit] Carrie Fisher, who played Leia Organa, died on December 27, 2016. Variety and Reuters reported that she had been planned for a key role in Episode IX. [69] In January 2017, Lucasfilm stated that there were no plans to digitally generate Fisher's performance as they had for Rogue One. [70] The following April, Fisher's brother Todd revealed that Fisher's daughter, Billie Lourd, had granted Disney the rights to use recent footage of Fisher. [71] However, a week later, Kathleen Kennedy stated that Fisher would not appear in the film. [72] 73] In July 2018, J. J. Abrams announced that unused footage of Fisher from The Force Awakens would be used to help complete the story. [9] 10] 74] e] In flashback scenes, digital de-aging was used for the appearance of Luke but not Leia. [75] In July 2018, Keri Russell was in talks to play a part with some "action-heavy fight scenes. 76] and it was confirmed that Billy Dee Williams would return as Lando Calrissian, 77] onscreen for the first time since 1983's Return of the Jedi —marking one of the longest intervals between portrayals of a character by the same actor in American film history. [31] f] At the end of July, Russell was confirmed to have been cast, 78] and there was an announcement of returning and additional new cast members. [1] In late August, Deadline Hollywood announced that Dominic Monaghan and Matt Smith had been cast in unspecified roles, 79] 80] but Smith later denied his involvement. [81] g] Greg Grunberg reprises his role as Temmin "Snap" Wexley. [33] Jimmy Vee stated on Twitter that he would be reprising the role of R2-D2, but in the final film the droid was credited to Hassan Taj and Lee Towersey. [84] 37] Brian Herring returns to puppeteer BB-8. [85] At Star Wars Celebration in April 2019, it was revealed via the film's teaser trailer that Ian McDiarmid would return to portray Palpatine. [26] Since the event was held after principal photography wrapped, Abrams was thrilled that news of McDiarmid on the set never leaked. [86] Kathleen Kennedy said they decided to reveal Palpatine's return ahead of the film's release because "many of the characters that are playing a significant role in the story, the fans know. They don't know how this story is going to unfold, but they know who they are. It's not like Baby Yoda. the surprise popular character from The Mandalorian. [87] Filming [ edit] Principal photography began on August 1, 2018, at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, England. [1] Filming also took place in Wadi Rum, Jordan. [88] Oscar Isaac stated that Abrams was allowing more improvised acting than in the previous two films. [89] Due to the tight schedule, some editing took place on set. [90] Principal photography wrapped on February 15, 2019. [91] Footage from the film was shown at The Walt Disney Company's annual shareholders meeting on March 7, 2019. [92] Reshoots took place at Bad Robot Productions between late September and mid-October. [93] Post-production [ edit] The visual effects were created by Industrial Light & Magic and supervised by Roger Guyett. [94] The film finished post-production on November 25, 2019. After Boyega accidentally left a copy of the script in his hotel room, it was listed on eBay for around 65. A Disney employee identified the script as authentic and purchased it from the seller for an undisclosed sum. [95] 96] 97] Lucasfilm honored Riley Howell, a student and Star Wars fan who heroically died at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte shooting in April 2019, by naming a Jedi after him in its book Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker - The Visual Dictionary. The book credits "Ri-Lee Howell" with collecting "many of the earliest accounts of exploration and codifications of The Force. 98] Music [ edit] On January 10, 2018, it was confirmed that John Williams would return to compose and conduct The Rise of Skywalker. [99] 100] The next month, Williams announced that it would be the last Star Wars film for which he would compose the score. [101] In August 2019, it was revealed that Williams had written about 35 of an expected 135 minutes of music for the film, which according to Williams's brother Don, would incorporate all of the major themes of the Skywalker saga. [102] Scoring began in July 2019 with Williams and William Ross conducting and orchestrating the sessions over the course of six months. [103] Walt Disney Records released the soundtrack album digitally on December 18, 2019, with a physical release following on December 20. [104] Marketing [ edit] Though Abrams stayed silent about many details of the film, he expressed his hopes that audiences would be "satisfied. 105] He headed a panel dedicated to the film on April 12, 2019, during Star Wars Celebration in Chicago, Illinois, 106] where the film's title was revealed via the first trailer, and new images were shown. [68] The trailer was viewed 111 million times in the first 24 hours of its release, which was 20 million more views than the teaser for The Last Jedi and more than double that of The Force Awakens. [107] A publishing campaign titled " Journey to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker " was announced on May 4, 2019 ( Star Wars Day. It includes the novel Resistance Reborn, set between The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker, and various other titles. [108] Additionally, the story events of the Disneyland themed area Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge precede the film, including the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run motion simulator, which features Chewbacca. [109] On August 24, a new poster and "sizzle reel" was released at D23; 25] the latter was released to the public two days later. The footage includes a montage of the Skywalker saga so far, as well as several new shots from the film. [110] The final trailer was released on October 21, 2019 during Monday Night Football. [111] In December 2019, the video game Fortnite Battle Royale released several cosmetics featuring character skins for Rey, Finn, a Sith Trooper, Kylo Ren, and Zorii Bliss along with a TIE Fighter glider, a Millennium Falcon glider (which was given to players for free from the Winterfest Event) four emotes, and a two free banners. [112] On December 14, Fortnite 's publisher Epic Games released a preview of the film on an in-game theater screen as a live event. [113] At the end of the event, a message from Palpatine (like the one mentioned in the film's opening crawl) was heard. [114] To coincide with the release of the film, a trailer for the forthcoming video game, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga was released on the same day. [115] Release [ edit] The film was originally planned to be released on May 24, 2019, in the United States before being pushed back to December 20. [50] 58] It had its world premiere in Los Angeles on December 16. [116] Unlike most studio films, Disney reportedly did not hold test screenings for The Rise of Skywalker, instead only showing it to Abrams' friends and family, as well as a terminally ill fan. [117] 118] A shot near the end of the film, featuring two female Resistance members kissing, was cut in Dubai and Singapore. [119] 120] The film will be available on Disney+ in 2020. [121] Reception [ edit] Box office [ edit] As of February 2, 2020, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker has grossed 507. 1 million in the United States and Canada, and 551 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of 1. 058 billion. [4] 5] Pre-sale tickets went on sale on October 21, 2019 and the film sold more tickets in their first hour of availability on Atom Tickets than the previous record-holder for ticket sales, Avengers: Endgame. It became Atom Tickets' second-best first-day seller of all-time behind Endgame, selling more than twice the number of tickets as The Last Jedi sold in that same timeframe, while Fandango reported it outsold all previous Star Wars films. [111] 122] Box office tracking had The Rise of Skywalker grossing around 205 million in its opening weekend, though some firms predicted a debut closer to 175 million. [123] The film made 89. 6 million on its first day, including 40 million from Thursday night previews, the sixth-highest opening day of all-time. [124] 125] It went on to debut to 177. 4 million, which was the third-highest opening ever for a December release and the 12th-best all-time, and it was also noted that Saturday (which saw a 47 percent drop from Friday's gross) was the busiest shopping day of the year, likely affecting ticket sales. [126] 127] 128] However, Deadline Hollywood did write that "we can't ignore" the less than stellar audience exit scores, which could affect the film's legs moving forward. [126] The film made 32 million on Christmas Day, the second-best total ever for the holiday after The Force Awakens ' 49. 3 million in 2015. [129] It went on to have a five-day total of 135. 2 million, including 72. 4 million for the weekend. [130] 131] 132] In its third weekend the film made 34. 5 million, remaining in first, 133] 134] before being dethroned in its fourth weekend by newcomer 1917. [135] Worldwide the film was projected to gross around 450 million in its opening weekend, including 250 million from 52 international territories. [136] It made 59. 1 million from its first day of international release in 46 countries. The biggest markets were the United Kingdom (8. 3 million) Germany (7. 2 million) France (5. 3 million) and Australia (4. 3 million. 137] In China, where Star Wars has never been a big draw and each Disney installment opened to diminishing amounts, the film made just 1. 6 million (RMB11. 6 million) through its first day. [138] It went on to open to 198 million from overseas countries and 373. 5 million worldwide, coming in below projections and 47 percent lower than The Last Jedi ' s total. Its biggest opening totals remained the UK (26. 8 million) Germany (21. 8 million) France (15. 2 million) Japan (14. 6 million) Australia (12. 6 million) and China (12. 1 million. 137] Critical response [ edit] Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reported an approval rating of 52% based on 472 reviews, with an average rating of 6. 17/10. The website's critics consensus reads. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker suffers from a frustrating lack of imagination, but concludes this beloved saga with fan-focused devotion. 139] It is the lowest rated live-action, theatrically released Star Wars film on the site. On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 54 out of 100, based on 60 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews. 140] Todd McCarthy of The Hollywood Reporter praised the visual effects, but criticized the storytelling, writing, A plot like this, featuring so many characters, locations and story dynamics, can by nature be confusing; so relentless is the pileup of incident that, at a certain point, one can be excused for checking out on the particulars of what's going on at a given moment and why, in favor of just going along for the amusement park ride. 141] For The A. V. Club, A. A. Dowd gave the film a C+ writing that the film "is so freighted with obligation that it almost groans under the weight, flashing a weak smile as it vaguely approximates the appearance of a zippy good time. 142] The BBC 's Nicholas Barber wrote that "the film is well acted, it looks so good that there is bound to be a fabulous tie-in coffee-table book of concept art, and it has a positive message about never giving up hope. But the main feeling it instills in the viewer is a renewed respect for the imagination of Lucas. The Rise of Skywalker has been lovingly crafted by a host of talented people, and yet the best they can do is pay tribute to everything he did several decades ago. 143] Richard Roeper, reviewing for the Chicago Sun-Times, gave the film three stars out of four, stating. The Rise of Skywalker rarely comes close to touching greatness, but it's a solid, visually dazzling and warmhearted victory for the Force of quality filmmaking. 144] Owen Gleiberman of Variety praised the film as "the most elegant, emotionally rounded, and gratifying Star Wars adventure since the glory days of Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back. but added that "given the last eight films, the bar isn't that high. 145] Michael Phillips for Chicago Tribune wrote that " The Rise of Skywalker does the job. It wraps up the trio of trilogies begun in 1977 in a confident, soothingly predictable way, doing all that is cinematically possible to avoid poking the bear otherwise known as tradition-minded quadrants of the Star Wars fan base. 146] Scott Mendelson for Forbes described the film as "possibly worse than any prior Star Wars 'episode. It ends a legendary franchise with a thud while denying this new trilogy its artistic reason for existence. He said the main problem "isn't just that it absolutely walks back a number of potent reveals and plot threads from the last movie, but rather that the 142-minute movie spends almost its entire running time retconning its predecessor and adding painfully conventional 'plot twists' and patronizing reversals in the name of mollifying the fans who merely want to be reminded of the first three movies. 147] Similarly, Justin Chang of the Los Angeles Times felt the film "nakedly offers itself up in the spirit of a Last Jedi corrective, a return to storytelling basics, a nearly 2½-hour compendium of everything that made you fall in love with Star Wars in the first place. The more accurate way to describe it, I think, is as an epic failure of nerve. This Rise feels more like a retreat, a return to a zone of emotional and thematic safety from a filmmaker with a gift for packaging nostalgia as subversion. 148] Writing for The New Yorker, Richard Brody found the film to come short of others in the franchise, stating: The faults of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker are those of the franchise over all, distilled and magnified because the film's director, J. Abrams, is mainly a distiller and a magnifier, and brings virtually no originality to it. His earnest and righteously grandiose direction evokes, as few movies do, a craving for Michael Bay at the controls. 149] Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle disliked the film, writing in his review: The audience is reacting, not with honest feeling, but more like one of Pavlov's dogs. Here's a truth that must be kept in mental balance with the warm rush of the movie's final minutes: For about 75 percent of its running time, The Rise Of Skywalker is a disappointment. Still, for all the movie's faults, it's likely that most people will consider The Rise of Skywalker and accept the trade: Sit through a so-so 110 minutes to get to a strong half hour. 150] Whereas Kelly Marie Tran had around 10 minutes of screentime in The Last Jedi, she appears for about a minute in The Rise of Skywalker. The reduced role was interpreted by some critics as a concession to fans who disliked her character; 151] Tran had been a target of online harassment following the release of The Last Jedi. In Vox, Alissa Wilkinson wrote that "its hard not to think that choice is designed to avoid further angering those fans who harbor a racist vendetta against a movie that dares to cast an Asian woman in a co-starring role. 152] Screenwriter Chris Terrio said Tran had reduced screentime because of the difficulty of including the late Carrie Fisher in scenes. [153] Audience response [ edit] According to CinemaScore, American audiences gave the film an average grade of "B+ on an A+ to F scale; by comparison, The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi each earned an "A" score and all three of the prequels an "A–. 154] On PostTrak, audiences gave the film an average 4 out of 5 stars, with 70 percent saying they would definitely recommend it; parents and children under 12 years old (who made up 16 percent of opening night attendance) gave it a full five out of five stars. Men (who made up 67 percent of the audience) gave the film an overall positive score of 80 percent while women (33 percent) gave it an 84 percent. [126] 155] RelishMix, which tracks social media posts and online presence, noticed a divided reaction to Skywalker online, though it leaned slightly positive. 126] Months prior to the film's trailer release, the film was review bombed on Rotten Tomatoes to the point where the "Want to See" percentage went down as far as 5 percent within a day, with many of them focusing on lingering negativity towards The Last Jedi. [156] Similar bombing with Captain Marvel caused Rotten Tomatoes to completely remove the Want to See feature after temporarily changing it to a number. [156] Despite the early review bombing and the lower scores with critics and audience polls, The Rise of Skywalker received a high Rotten Tomatoes audience score. This was opposite to the low audience and high critics score of The Last Jedi. Humza Hussain at Screen Rant suggested that the story decisions had generally appeased the detractors of The Last Jedi. [157] Abrams was aware that any decision would please some and not others, saying "They're all right. 158] Accolades [ edit] Notes [ edit] The "Skywalker saga" refers to the main Star Wars film franchise, which is a trilogy of trilogies. [6] a b Billie Lourd portrays her mother's character in a short flashback, which also utilizes footage from Return of the Jedi. [11] 12] Unseen footage of Fisher from The Last Jedi was considered but not used. [13] 14] Trevorrow and Connolly's script, titled Duel of the Fates after the theme of the same name from The Phantom Menace, included elements which were utilized to some extent in the final film, such as Kylo finding a Sith holocron in Darth Vader's castle on Mustafar, and the transference of Force energy. [63] 64] According to Todd Fisher, There's a lot of minutes of footage. I don't mean just outtakes. This is unused, new content that could be woven into the storyline. It's going to look like it was meant to be. Like it was shot yesterday. 10] Also tying this record is Denis Lawson as Wedge Antilles, though he only makes a cameo appearance in The Rise of Skywalker. ^ In April 2019, Disney's British website also listed Smith as being in the film, 82] but removed his and Monaghan's name the following month.

Hilarious how people here ignoring ROTJ. Anakin does eventually manage to save someone he loves from dying. Its his son, and it costs him his life. Remember, right. Plot twist, C-3PO is the master mind behind all of this.

Nuts in a chicks mouth “A thousand generations lives in you now”. „Star Wars Episode IX“: „Der Aufstieg Skywalkers“ mit großer Überraschung? Wir prophezeien ein düsteres Ende für Rey (Daisy Ridley. Foto: AP/Lucasfilm Ltd. In knapp zwei Wochen kommt der nächste Krieg-der-Sterne-Film ins Kino. In der Gerüchteküche brodelt es. Und natürlich haben wir unsere eigene Theorie. Wenn am 18. Dezember mit „Der Aufstieg Skywalkers“ der letzte Teil der neuen Star-Wars-Trilogie ins Kino kommt, soll es ein Abschluss sein – der großen Geschichte, die 1977 begann. Und in ihr ging es immer um das Verhältnis der Skywalkers zum Imperator. Der wird auch im neuen Film eine entscheidende Rolle spielen. Aber wie und in welcher Form? Und ist der kurze Schnipsel real, in dem wir Rey als dunklen Sith-Lord sehen? Vielleicht ist das Teil einer Vision, möglicherweise aber wurde das auch nur für TV-Spots und Teaser gedreht. Oder wird Disney die Heldin tatsächlich zu einer tragischen Figur machen? Das hat der Mickey-Mouse-Konzern schon einmal bei „Rogue One“ getan. Da hat man alle überrascht, als man die Hauptfiguren sterben ließ. Doch wie weit wird man nun gehen? Reys Darstellerin Daisy Ridley zumindest hat gesagt, dass der „Aufstieg Skywalkers“ düster werden würde. Wir glauben das jetzt einfach und begeben uns in das Reich der Vermutungen und Spekulationen. Fasst man alle Teaser, TV-Spots, Trailer zusammen, fällt eins auf: Rey trainiert. Sie trainiert hart und fast schon besessen. Zudem trägt sie eine Art Verband um ihren rechten Oberarm. Wir denken, das hängt zusammen. Eins zieht sich durchs Star-Wars-Kino-Universum: Jemand verliert ein Körperteil. Sei es Count Dooku, Anakin Skywalker, später Darth Vader oder auch C-3PO. Bislang hält sich die neue Trilogie da etwas zurück. In „Aufstieg Skywalkers“ gehen wir indes davon aus, dass Rey einen Arm verliert. Der „Verband“ soll nur die Verbindung zur Prothese kaschieren, die eher provisorisch ist. Wir vermuten auch, dass es im Kampf gegen die „Knights of Ren“ passieren wird. Von denen haben wir bislang nur gehört. Im neuen Film werden sie aber tatsächlich auftreten und vermutlich wie eine Urgewalt über den Widerstand einbrechen. Die Niederlage, bei der dann vielleicht auch Leia stirbt, zeigt Rey ihre Grenzen auf. War sie bislang ein Naturtalent, dem alles gelingt, versagt sie nun. Und das führt dazu, dass sie härter trainiert. Noch wichtiger aber: Es löst Angst bei ihr aus. Die Furcht zu verlieren, unterlegen zu sein, zu sterben und ihre Freunde im Stich zu lassen. Und in der weit entfernten Galaxie vor langer, langer Zeit ist Furcht immer der Pfad zur Dunklen Seite der Macht. Zumal eine Robot-Prothese bei Star Wars ein Zeichen beginnender Entmenschlichung ist: Als Anakin einen Arm verliert, geht er damit einen weiteren Schritt in Richtung des Imperators Palpatine. Lukes Prothese macht ihm seinem Vater Dath Vader ähnlicher. Und auch Rey wird durch diese Erfahrung und der daraus folgenden Verbissenheit anfällig werden – für die Macht der Dunklen Seite und den Einflüsterungen Palpatines. Warum verliert sie den Arm nicht im Kampf gegen Kylo Ren? Weil wir denken, dass die beiden im Laufe des Films zusammenarbeiten werden. Beide werden der Spur des Imperators folgen. Beide werden vielleicht nach Visionen das gleiche Ziel haben: Rey folgt der Stimme Luke Skywalkers – und Kylo der seines Großvaters Anakin. Gerade diese Begegnung und der Tod seiner Mutter Leia könnten ihn wieder auf den Pfad der „Hellen Seite“ führen. Denn wir gehen davon aus, dass der Filmtitel nicht Rey meint, sondern den letzten lebenden Skywalker: Kylo Ren. Und was ist dann mit der jungen Heldin, der wir seit „Erwachen der Macht“ folgen? Auf Ahch-To sieht sie in „Die letzten Jedi“ sich selbst, als sie in der Spiegelhöhle herausfinden möchte, wer ihre Eltern waren. Sie seien „Nobodies“ gewesen, sagt Kylo Ren zu ihr. Wir vermuten darum: Rey wurde gentechnisch in einem Labor geschaffen. Ihre Eltern sind tatsächlich „Nobodies“, weil es außer ein paar Wissenschaftlern niemanden gibt. Auf Reys Heimat Jaaku existierte dafür bis zur Schlacht zwischen den Rebellen und dem Imperium eine Forschungsanlage des Imperators. Woran man dort gearbeitet haben, wissen wir nicht. Aber möglicherweise hat man Wesen geschaffen, um den Geist Palpatines aufzunehmen? Als Rückversicherung für den Sith-Lord. Eventuell war Snoke nur ein misslungenes Experiment, das trotz bester Voraussetzungen dazu nicht in der Lage war. Das würde seine Narben, seine Deformationen und seine Fähigkeiten erklären – die indes bei Weitem nicht so ausgeprägt waren, wie er vorgegeben hat. Es war nur ein Schatten der Macht des Imperators. So wie die „Erste Ordnung“ nur ein Abklatsch des einstigen Imperiums ist ohne qualifizierte militärische Führung oder einer funktionierenden Struktur zur Verwaltung eines Reichs. Rey dagegen ist möglicherweise die geeignete Kandidatin, um Palpatines Fortleben zu sichern. Das passende „Gefäß“ für seinen Geist. Erst recht, wenn sie schrittweise der Dunklen Seite verfällt – getrieben von Angst. Sie wäre nicht die Erste im „Krieg der Sterne“. Anakin fürchtete um das Leben seiner Mutter Shmi, später dann um das Leben seiner Frau Padmé – und wurde so Schritt für Schritt zu Darth Vader. Ein Wesen, das seine Existenz nur durch Maschinen sichern kann. Gefangen in einem Anzug, der kaum Menschliches hat. Er ist auch ein Symbol, wozu die Sith getrieben werden. Aus Angst vor der Vergänglichkeit. Im Gegensatz dazu haben die Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda und Luke in den Filmen ihr Ende stoisch und gelassen akzeptiert. Sie klammern sich nicht bedingungslos an das Leben. Vielleicht ist das sogar einer der größten Unterschiede in den Lehren der Sith und Jedi: der Umgang mit dem Tod. Wird Rey auch dazu bereit sein? Wir denken nicht. Und so wird sie immer mehr in den düsteren Sog Palpatines geraten. Unsere Vermutung: Am Ende wird es Kylo Ren sein, der bereit sein wird, sich zu opfern. Er wird die Dunkle Seite hinter sich lassen und seinen Tod akzeptieren. Und der Imperator wird das erst viel zu spät erkennen. Kylo konnte seine Absichten in „Die letzten Jedi“ auch vor Snoke verbergen. Zumal die Skywalkers an sich ein Art blinder Fleck in der Wahrnehmung Palpatines sind: In „Rückkehr der Jedi-Ritter“ sagt Darth Vader, dass er die Anwesenheit Luke Skywalkers spüre. Der Imperator regiert darauf irritiert, weil er nichts dergleichen fühlen würde. Kylo Rens Opferbereitschaft wird Rey für einen Moment dem Griff Palpatines entreißen, damit sie ihn endgültig vernichten kann. Auch wenn es ihr Leben kostet. Wir erinnern uns wieder an „Rückkehr der Jedi-Ritter“: Als Luke an Bord des Todessterns sich weigert, seinen Vater zu töten, möchte Palpatine ihn zerstören. Das ist der Moment, als der Imperator überrascht wird: Darth Vader widersetzt sich ihm. Er akzeptiert in der Tradition der Jedi seinen Tod und rettet dadurch seinen Sohn. Wir denken, dass Rey ein ähnliches Schicksal erwarten wird. Sie wird sterben und so das Ende des Imperators endgültig zu besiegeln. Kylo Ren dagegen wird als Ben Solo einen neuen Orden gründen. Der wird den Namen Skywalker tragen. Und er wird weder Jedi noch Sith sein, sondern beide Lehren vereinen.

Don't tell me C3PO hasn't been smoking some of that California green. At the end, Dead Star is going to be 20 times bigger with BFG gun. Star wars: the rise of skywalker release date. For those who didn't like Rian Johnson's deconstructionist's approach w/The Last Jedi, good news. Rise of Skywalker does not continue that tack. For those who were hoping that JJ Abrams would be able to take the disjointed and seemingly rudderless story so far and bring it all together, bad news. He doesn't. Not even close.
Rise of Skywalker had a rather impossible task, so it's hard to fault it for not sticking the landing on a story that never took flight in the first place. Instead I blame Disney, who failed to learn the lessons of its success w/its Marvel Cinematic Universe and plan and craft this saga in advance.
Abrams was blamed or credited, depending on who you listen to, for basically cutting and pasting from the original trilogy w/his Force Awakens, relying on nostalgia and fan service to smooth over the cracks. There's some of that here as well, and no surprise the very best moments of Rise of Skywalker involve callbacks, characters and cues from the first trilogy. As for the new stuff. br> Little here makes any sense. It starts off w/all the focus of a fly at a picnic and its attempts to take the elements and loose ends its given and tie them up are less than satisfying. It does feature some striking visuals, but set pieces mean little if you're not given a reason to care about the outcome, and here I just didn't.
It does get better in its third act, but it's far too little and far too late to save the film or the trilogy as a whole.

The ending is basically just the return of the Jedi with minor changes

The ending was so bittersweet. Rey goes off into the sunset with BB8, all alone once again. Depressing. I honestly thought this was a fan made trailer at first. wow. Star wars: the rise of skywalker mp4. JJ Abrams and corporate Hollywood strikes again... Star wars: the rise of skywalker movie. Star wars: the rise of skywalkertickets. Star wars: the rise of skywalker. Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) ist tot! Doch sein Opfer entfachte den Funken neu, den der Widerstand brauchte, um sich ins letzte Gefecht gegen die Erste Ordnung zu werfen. Die mutigen Rebellen unter Führung von Generalin Leia (Carrie Fisher) attackieren ihren Feind aus dem Hinterhalt, da sie viel zu wenige sind, als dass ein offener Krieg gegen die Truppen von Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) zu gewinnen wäre. Die Hoffnungen des Widerstands ruhen nun auf Rey (Daisy Ridley) der letzten Jedi. Mit ihren Freunden Finn (John Boyega) Poe (Oscar Isaac) Chewbacca (Joonas Suotamo) und C-3PO (Anthony Daniels) geht sie auf eine Mission, die den Kampf zwischen Jedi und Sith endgültig entscheiden könnte. Doch ein altbekannter Strippenzieher tritt aus dem Schatten. Seit vielen Jahren versucht er schon, den perfekten Schüler der Dunklen Seite zu finden. Der Film enthält mehrere Sequenzen mit Blitzlicht-Effekten, die sich auf Menschen auswirken können, die empfänglich für lichtempfindliche Epilepsie sind oder andere Lichtempfindlichkeiten haben.

Star wars: the rise of skywalker sjw. Am I the only person who noticed that the I know from Han to Kylo is a call back to Empire? Empire Leia: I love you. Han: I know. Rise of Skywalker Kylo: Dad. Han: I know. Kylo was going to say I love you to his dad. The fact that Han is his own memory makes this make even more sense. Let the past die But you remember the OT. If you listen carefully you can hear Darth Vaders breathing 1:48. This is poor writing. Their romance was never really set up. He should have sacrificed himself for her and that's it.
