You kidding? It's EA - of course it will be rushed out unfinished. It's only the surprise releases that appear remotely finished, these major properties? Always delayed, mismanaged, and pushed out the door before the deadline regardless of whether it has any right being released yet.

Just after the prologue, you get this: "Purchase DLC pack to unlock force ability!"

Exactly, how so many think that is a stone cold lock from the moment it was said still bewilders me.
Exactly, I thought it was fairly obvious that Kylo Ren has no idea who her parents are. He was trying to insult her by disparaging her parentage. He was also trying to psyche himself up by convincing himself that he was better than her. It's a fairly common and obvious tactic, really, not some grand, canonical reveal.

Adam Driver is such a goofball looking villain. Such a turn off.


When they first showed him I busted out laughing, wtf where they thinking? His appearance is so bizarre for a villain and does a huge disservice to the movie. So many other people who would love he role and yet they pick that ugly arse dude. Whatever Star Wars has been dead since the original trilogy anyways.

Was just watching Episode 1 and had a crazy thought. What if the force resurrects Luke in IX to reforge the order as his grey knights and this is how he completes his journey to become the chosen one.

Now that would really be pulling a long thread.

Kylo reacts to the Rise of Skywalker trailer

Example

(Hear’s heavy breathing at start of trailer)
Kylo: Ah Yes. It’s the exhausted panting of the average fanboy after they’ve thrown their tantrums. :p

In the Kylo reacts video he says he’s 100% behind the fan theory that Finn and Poe will hook up because he doesn’t want to compete with them in the same dating pool.

A Kylo Ren reacts video is the only reason I'd even lay eyes on this Trailer. Thanks for making it at least entertaining Auralnauts.

This poster will likely be the best part of the upcoming Episode Nein...

I'll go watch the sequel to Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle instead.
