I will say that from the BK spoilers and the other spoilers that they changed the ending from a few weeks ago

Prior:

Kylo was tossed aside/killed to the pit and done, Rey gets beat up/almost dead and summons the force friends

Now:

Kylo and Rey are essentially brought to deaths edge, they both are about to get offed by palpanator and then he sacrifices himself/power to/into Rey so she lives - then start the Force voice/ghost gangbang o power


---

While I do not particularly like any of these, the "now" is better than "prior" and can be seen as a small adjustment to ULTIMATE MARY SUE REY...

I mean, did they just watch Highlander Endgame or something?

The latest leaks indicate the ending was altered to not include the male figures powering Rey up to defeat Palpatine. This doesn't mean Hayden is cut from the movie, it just means he was cut from the ending. Your post's source is the second ending leak to not reference Hayden. Its a good sign.

Ah, there's the final missing piece that turns this movie into a box office Avengers killer.

It's very own "Wymxn Power" moment

All indicators are Disney is bracing for fan backlash re: Rise of Skywalker; state of franchise as a whole.

supposed opening crawl

Literally the worst shit ever. Saw some early reviews (non spoiler) come in from the world premiere. Some doing the usual "SO GREAT! You will cry!", others clearly sticking to safe language of "BIG movie, huge plot could have been several movies in one!" without really saying how shit it was. Few brave ones saying they had problems with it.

I really can't believe how many positive reviews I'm seeing. Either the leaks are off or people are just glad it's over. What I've read, I'm not really thrilled about the story.

i saw a few spoiler free articles and it basically sums it up as long, exposition heavy, a bit too complicated/talky, tries to do too much, but the quieter moments are nice. pretty sure this isn't gonna top anyones lists but maybe its not a huge turd like TLJ and it is the end of the long national nightmare that are new Star Wars trilogy movies.

i'm seeing it friday 10:30am in Dolby

How can anyone trust reviews from people deigned worthy of seeing the movie early?

It's the same deal the big game companies give out for reviews, you like getting all the clicks and add revenue for fools reading your shit because you have early access? Then you better be nice, or else...

I feel like at best, JJ could try and retcon/pull together somehow some of the threads that Last Jedi had already ripped apart, and if he even manages to get a cohesive story out of it, I can respect the effort...but there's zero chance to pull an actual good movie out of it all, let alone satisfyingly tie up this trilogy and in theory all 9 movies.

We'll know more tomorrow when embargo lifts, but the first impression seems to be there's tons of stuff happening and lots of fan service, both of which have some good and some bad. It seems it does too many things.

I saw one that said it felt like an apology for TLJ.

All in all, doesn't seem like it's great but that it still manage to somehow be a decent ending to the entire saga.

This doesn't give much relief, seeing how these idiots don't understand what made Star Wars good, they wouldn't know what to even be sorry for.

We're sorry you all hated TLJ, now here's more of the same.

The problem is they are saying "sorry for TLJ, here is more TFA" not "here is more OG SW"

The Mandelorian understands... why can't they?

Uhh The Mandelorian absolutely does not understand. Looks around. Every site you go when reading an article on the Mandelorian is about Baby Yoda. Show jumped the shark. Started out standing on its own, and bailed for baby muppets.
