Rogue one did have a SW feel tho. The ambiance, the lighting, the costumes, the sets, it all felt like SW.

None of those other abominations feel like Star wars at all.

They went for Guardians/MCU/Star Trek reboot appeal. It just didn't work.

It's not inspiring anyone to wonder more about the universe.

The sense of wonderment in A New Hope was critical to the establishment of the franchise.

Add to that it has no serious villains, save for this Palpatine reload. You just don't feel anything when you watch the trailer. The apathy is strong in every corner of the internet-- read the comments.

Those horse thingys are called Orbacks.

Link to a cringe worthy shill article here: Star Wars: What creatures are The Rise of Skywalker's space horses?

Some selected parts ( this guy is a drooling fan-boy )
In the newly-released trailer, which you can watch below, we can see a herd of these space horses charging across the deck of a Star Destroyer in a totally badass fashion.
. . .
Beyond that though, the orbacks look like they'll play a vital role in the film's final confrontation as we've glimpsed in the trailer.

One thing is for certain though, they look a far worthier introduction to the franchise than the fathiers and we can't wait to see them in action when The Rise of Skywalkers hits cinemas in December.

But how can they survive in a vacuum and why are they on a star destroyer?

They'll be air-dropped (yes, air dropped) from rebel ships, or they'll be freed from the ebil nazis First Order that were using them to test experiments on. They'll also be the key to destroying something dangerous as the film's ripoff of Luke's thermal exhaust port bombing.

Wait so there are space horses doing a charge on the outer deck of a spaceship in flight?

Lol.

I already covered that in a previous post. The destroyers entered a planet's atmosphere, and the resistance wanted some fresh, organic air while they "non GMO, free range, ethically" charged their enemies on space horseback

Space horses on the deck of a space ship. It doesn't get any more epic than this.

the horses are synonymous with low tech but competent. i mean, people have been using horses as vehicles of war since the dawn of time. and the poles even used horses to successfully defend against an invasion by nazi germany, who were using tanks. so it's like... a callback to the gungans fighting off the trade federation... it's poetry.

It's all Noble Savage Rousseauean garbage.

We're meant to feel white guilt because we invented guns Star Destoryers.

Cavalry charges are always cool. Especially if they are suicide missions.

or maybe those horses can fly after they take out the ship.

There was that alien horse charge in Avatar, that was cool. Maybe it's a subtle advertisement "pssst, hey Avatar sequels coming out soon and they'll be better than this shitshow"

The only way this movie can be saved is if it is The Room levels of bad, I would see it in the theatre if it was that bad.

Maybe the movie will end with the Last Samurai charge and only one person is left and that person bows down to the Emperor Palpatine. I would spend money to see that.

Yes, and it will end with Rey stating

"Let me not talk of how Luke Skywalker died. Let me instead talk of how he lived."

and it would still be more historically accurate than The Last Samurai.
