I’ll add another unpopular opinion.
Despite how I feel about The Rise of Skywalker I think the more I come to the conclusion if Rey had stayed “Rey Random” then declared herself a Skywalker I might be a bit more forgiving and able to accept the film more.
Honestly, I’d prefer she accepted herself as “just Rey” - that’s powerful - although finding an ‘adoptive family’ of sorts after discovering that your biological parents abandoned you is a good message to send too.
Yes, exactly. That’s how I see it in it a way. I think I just needed to see her biological family to let go of her being a Skywalker/Solowalker as George intended. As once we saw the vision of her parents I was ready to accept and let go.
