ST Sequel Trilogy Character Screen Time

ninewheels0 has updated his TLJ screen time counts, probably like he updated his count after TFA and RO came out on home video instead of relying on a bootleg to put the numbers out early. He had wrote previously that the previous TLJ numbers were preliminary.

So after Episode IX, Rey will bypass Han and Leia, and become 4th place after Vader, Luke and Obi Wan.

Not bad, when you consider those top three had two trilogies of screen time, as opposed to just one like her.

 

The Solo movie (and an Obi-Wan movie for Obi-Wan if it happens) will significantly increase Han's overall movie screen time, but strictly about the episodes, yes.

 

I want R2D2, BB8 and C3PO to launch the long planned takeover of the galaxy to ensure galactic peace in Episode IX, RETURN OF THE DROIDS.

I thought R2's scenes with Luke, so touching. I agree, R2 needs much more screen time. I think Lucas and Mark have both said that he saves more lives than anyone in the entire galaxy.

I like R2, BB8 and you have to have C3PO to translate and make his witty remarks also!

 

ninewheels has updated the statistics now including the Solo: A Star Wars Story movie.

 

So Luke needs 7.5 minutes to jump Han and Rey needs 40.25 minutes to jump Obi-Wan. I think both of those will be very close.

 

40.75 minutes is the average and the median is 36.75 minutes for a SW screen time lead across the 10 movies based on ninewheels0's data, so it's possible.

 

Hmmmm, if you had told me back in 2015 that BB-8 would still be trailing Jar Jar after two ST films I wouldn't have believed it.

 

ninewheels has updated the screen time statistics, now including the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker using the home video edition.



Character: TFA, TLJ, TROS, Trilogy (by % of total movie runtime)
Rey: 31%, 20%, 39%, 30%
Finn: 23%, 12%, 17%, 17%
Kylo Ren: 14%, 10%, 14%, 13%
Poe: 6%, 8%, 18%, 11%

 

I look forward to a ninewheels breakdown that includes Rise of Skywalker.

That should be coming soon, right?

Hopefully with saga totals as well as "all-movie" totals.

 

Crazy it feels like Kylo/ Ben was in the ST more then he was. Especially in TLJ.

 

Call me crazy, but I actually was okay with R2 not having as big of a role in the ST. He actually was featured a lot in the PT (even moreso if you include TCW), so it evens out in my eyes. 3PO is the one I hoped to see more of, cos in both the PT and OT he was just kind of...there. He didn't really have a role of any importance in the OT, other than ROTJ-even in ANH R2 technically had a bigger role really. IMO the attention he got in TROS helped make up for his general lack of importance across the saga.

 

Less filler scenes with him.

As opposed to the other characters.



I’m actually not surprised Poe got the 2nd most screen time in TTOS.

 

R2-D2 :

ST = 4m and 15s

OT = 36m and 30s

PT = 17m and 30s

I know R2-D2 had his time in the OT and PT but was completely wasted in the ST ? why the heck was that ? surely a few more min in TROS would have been nice for a bit of a nod to one of the great Star Wars character's.....

 

why the heck was that? cause he was replaced by BB8.

 

So ? all the other OT characters had a good send off - R2 had less time than most fans would have liked - I wanted a little more that's all......

 

Yes, he did we will for a character who was originally intended to have five minutes of screen time before being killed off.

 

Damn that is depressing lol. Seriously I love R2 and well I'm not surprised.
