I can hardly believe it. I bought tickets for the newest Star Wars movie. Episode IX. The Rise of Skywalker. Is this really happening?
As part of my family’s Christmas celebration/holiday time, we decided to include the 7 of us going to watch The Rise of Skywalker.
So I busted out the Fandango app and reserved seats at our local Cinemark. Plus, it’s on the super big fancy movie screen with extra whammy-kablammy cinema sauce!
And there you have it. Somehow I managed to find 7 seats in a row for my family to see Star Wars on opening day! It’s a matinee viewing, and it should prove to be a fun family event, kicking off my holiday vacation time.
As for the movie itself, I don’t know what to expect. Yeah, I think it will be great! But I have many questions, wondering how JJ Abrams has wrapped up the huge Skywalker saga. I think it has something to do with The Force and bringing balance to it. But how does Kylo Ren turn out? How epic will this thing be?
We should find out in a few days!!
Do you plan to see the newest Star Wars? Comment below, or write to me here! Thanks for reading!
I heard through the grapevine that The Mandelorian will somehow tie into the movie. Much like they did with Agents of Shield and Captain America.

Yeah, I’ve heard so many rumors from Liam Neeson to Hayden Christensen. Hopefully JJ can pull it off.

As long as we get some more Jar-Jar antics, nothing can go wrong. 😜

Hahaha! Yeah. I would die of he came back. I do think that The Last Jedi did little-to-nothing to move the story forward. If you look back, nothing really significant happened. This new one will have to catch up in a big way.

Yeah. Snoke appeared. Then he was gone. Other than that? Skywalker kinda there, kinda gone? The light/dark side struggle to balance was it.

Oh, I was thinking of him as Nick Fury since he was in space at the end of Spiderman Far From Home. He could recruit for the Avengers.
Sorry to junk up your comment thread so much. Let’s try to get this post some traffic! This is what I was talking about in an older post’s comments: discussion here is better than social media. Much more interest-specific.

Yeah. I still have not seen Far From Home; the Bluray is sitting in my shelf though. Guess I’m watching it this weekend!

Whoop, sorry. Spoiler alert! It’s okay. I thought End Game was the best, but I’m more into the acting than action these days.
