Just watched it, and my reaction is a little meh. All the footage from the OT and PT were from the 2011 blurays, as far as I could tell. The new footage is not bad, but I can’t say I love it, either. After seeing the D23 footage, I’m on the fence about Palpatine’s return. As critical as I have been of TLJ, when I heard Palpatine without the factor of surprise from the first teaser, I couldn’t help but get a feeling of regression. It’s early days of course, but these are my thoughts at this point in time.
