The Saga Comes to an End, Again

The first Star Wars Episode 9 trailer was just released.
I've watched it twice now.
Will most likely watch it again a few more times today when I get the chance.

The title is interesting: 'Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker.'

Uh, what?

Yeah, that is a little confusing. It also doesn't work to complete the sentence the last two films seemed to be building up to (The Force awakens the last Jedi).

Is the title a hint that we were misled in episode 8 about Rey's parents?
Is that the Emperor's laugh at the end there as they look at the wreckage of what I am assuming is the 2nd Death Star?
How is that all connected?
Are the rumors that the Emperor knew something about the truth of Anakin's birth going to be proven correct?

Yeah, lots and lots of questions.

All in all not much was really shown.

We knew Lando was going to return and that there would be scenes with Leia using unused footage.

I am wondering if the Leia scenes dictate Rey's outfit for the film.

Looks like BB-8 gets a new friend.

Some good visuals and action scenes.

But nothing too revealing there.

I am looking forward to seeing where the story goes as we once again come to the end of the Star Wars Saga.

According to Disney, they are going to step back from the idea of one new Star Wars movie a year after this and give it some time before doing anything on the big screen.

I'm sure I'll be blogging about it all as new trailers are released and new information gets out there.
