Savannah's Thoughts

- Crazy to think Babu wasn't going to survive! This is yet another reason to love Steven Spielberg.


- Since The Rise of Skywalker was the end of the Skywalker Saga, I feel the intention and meaning of the Skywalker name should've been explained or at least better presented on screen. Something as important as this shouldn't come as a surprise.


- I'm very excited for the return of Ahsoka and to learn about her life after leaving the Jedi Order. I'm especially curious about Ahsoka's interactions with the clone troopers, particularly Rex, and to learn how that will influence Order 66.


- While the lack of deleted scenes and commentary is disappointing, "The Skywalker Legacy" documentary offers a wealth of behind-the-scenes content and covers a vast number of topics fans will be interested in learning about.
