Sparky, RogueLeader, I really like the idea you’re throwing around here. TROS really does little other than try to justify itself, whereas TLJ does feel far more conclusive. I agree that the only real ‘meat’ of TROS which also concludes a key part of the story is Rey vs Kylo around the old Death Star wreckage, and Kylo’s Han dream.
Hmm . . . I wonder if the huge Star Destroyer fleet could be portrayed as part of the First Order, and the battle against it interspersed with the Kylo-Rey duel on the D.S. wreckage?
If so, the climax of the saga could be Ben’s return to the light. No mention of Palpatine.
