StAr Wars 9: Will It Live Up To Expectations?

​By now, I'm sure that you've seen the latest Star Wars trailer, Rise of Skywalker. It starts off by recapping the saga that started all the way back in 1977 (as if you needed a recap but it was cool and nostalgic anyways.)

While the JJ Abrams Star War films have satisfied an itch that needed scratching, it has not lived up to the insane hype. It's not an easy task but most fans were expecting a little more from the films. A more original plot, better character development and more action. However, having said all that, with the final installment insight, it's hard not to be excited after seeing the trailer. There is so much to discuss, so much that is unknown but the only real question fans should be asking is does the final film live up to expectations? Will it compensate for all that is missing in the first two fims?
The Star Wars 9 trailer is teasing the return of an old villain. How exactly Emperor Palpatine is back, considering he was presumably killed in Return of the Jedi, and whether he will face off against Rey, remains to be seen. A rumour is circling the internet that Palpatine transfers his soul to Darth Vader's helmet. While many fans might dismiss this rumour, there is some Star Wars lore that back ups the theory. 

 Alongside that, the fans are wondering how the franchise will send off Princess Leia. Plus, there's the small matter of new characters appearing alongside popular characters like Luke and C-3PO.
Thanks to Lucasfilm wrapping the movie in a cloud of mystery, there's plenty to speculate about, too. The most recent trailer adds more backstory to the previous teaser and more reveal about the actual storyline, which is to be expected. C3PO with sinister red eyes, epic space battles, yes, and double-edged lightsabers add to the excitement and intrigue. We also see Kylo Ren and Rey fighting the fight of light and dark on what appears to be a sinking Imperial battleship. That will be cool. For the rest, we'll have to wait until closer to that December 20th launch date.

While this won't be the last Star Wars film, it will probably be the last that has a majority of our favourite characters playing major roles. And because that is the case, it is an important milestone in the Star Wars films.By now, I'm sure that you've seen the latest Star Wars trailer, Rise of Skywalker.
