I just realized. When the saber flies into Rey’s hand, it’ll be that much more satisfying to visibly be Leia’s, right after we hear her very first posthumous word.
Resistance headquartered on Naboo, the Death Star wreckage on Endor, Leia having a purple blade, Jedi ghosts joining the fight, Rose’s theme bringing some resonance to Finn, and other things. None of these “solve” issues with the movie, but each are great to see. This is gonna be special, and hopefully a good note for this interpretation of the saga to go out on.
