I thought it was about Rey doing a Forrest Gump walk through the galaxy?

I also notice that the Millennium Falcon once again has her old circular sensor dish--like the one Lando broke during the Battle of Endor.

Funny I just did a binge watch on Rebels over the weekend. The Ghost is such a simplistic design that just is so functionally perfect.

The title is too crazy to avoid.

That circular dish kicked off a storm of time travel theories when it was first seen. From simple flashback scenes to crazy "Endgame" hijinks to "fixing the franchise" shit.

Ah, Yes. The ship has a round dish. It must be <insert ridiculousness here>.

Strange timing this particular clip comes out after the most recent episode of The Mandalorian.

So much for creating a cohesive and non-contradictory new canon.

The rise of Skywalker on track for 175 million plus opening
The first round of box office estimates for “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” was released on Wednesday, with trackers estimating an opening of at least $175 million and as much as $200-210 million when it opens on December 20.

By comparison, Disney’s previous installments in their “Star Wars” trilogy each opened to well above $200 million. 2015’s “The Force Awakens” opened to a then-record $248 million while 2017’s “The Last Jedi” opened to $220 million, which today still ranks as the fourth-highest opening of all time.

I remember reading how the pre sales were exceeding even Endgame for most of all time. Then I heard those numbers were inflated because the studio was buying them and somehow whoever figured this out... Figured it out because they were all against the walls, or not center.
