Even James Bond movies always end with a sex scene. Sometimes more than once I’m looking at you, Indiana Jones. But adventure stories, particularly of the swashbuckling sort that Star Wars set out to revive, frequently do end up with a pair of characters getting together romantically. The one I want to consider here has to do with love stories. There are, of course, a lot of things one might say about the nine-movie saga. (Personally, I wouldn’t mind seeing about four separate spinoffs from the ending of TROS-for reasons discussed below-as long as there are NO MORE DEATH STARS.) But it appears we’ve seen a conclusion to the main story. That universe is already expanding ( for the second time) into side stories and prequels and it’s quite possible that we’ll see more stories set after the end of TROS, even including some of the same main characters. We can consider the main storyline or central arc of Star Wars complete. So we should now be able to discuss the plot freely, though I will hang out aĪnd we are now in a position, after forty-odd years, to reach conclusions about the story as a whole. I’m going to assume that by now, everybody who wants to has seen Star Wars IX, The Rise of Skywalker (“TROS”). ![]()
