PT Isn’t it weird that Anakin only showed as a voice, not a Force Ghost in the last 3 films?

Isn’t it weird that Anakin only showed as a voice, not a Force Ghost in the last 3 films? I mean if Anakin showed up as a Force Ghost to guide and teach Rey, Rey would be more stronger then she was when she was being teacher by Luke and Leia. I mean we saw Rey at Tatooine in the Rise of Skywalker. If we saw Anakin’s Force Ghost at Tatooine standing beside Luke and Leia’s Force Ghost, we’d be relived because Anakin’s home is Tatooine.

 

The story is from Rey’s point of view and Rey knows almost nothing about Anakin. It wouldn’t make much sense for him to physically appear.

 

true but if Anakin did appear, maybe in the Last Jedi talking to Luke, we’d feel at least good because Anakin would give Luke guidance.

 

Anakin had no relationship with anyone besides Luke and maybe Leia. His grandson worships his evil side and thinks Anakin weak. Rey only needs to hear his voice of many.

 

I get what you’re saying. But, they should’ve at least gave us some scenes of Luke alone on the island in the Last Jedi with Anakin talking to Luke, or at least with him in the last scene of the Rise of Skywalker on Tatooine standing next to Luke as a Force Ghost.

 

or at least replace Jodi with Anakin when Yoda struck lightning to a tree when Luke tries to destroy the jedi order, etc.

 

I love the Yoda scene so mutch i woundt have replaced it. But you could have had him appear to Luke somewhere else in movie.

 

me too but if at the scene where Rey defeats Palpatine, they could’ve shown Anakin as a Force Ghost helping defeat Palpatine.

 

I like that the is no force ghost helping her. But you could have him appear at the end similar to ROTJ.

 

One of many missed opportunities of the ST.

 

I dont mind its not Luke's story, its Rey's and Anakin has no relationship with her.

 

nah bro who here thinks ashoka is still alive during the sequel?

 

An elderly 70's Ahsoka.

 

Frankly none of the story decisions of the sequels make sense, including this one.

We where robbed

 

they should make a series about anakin in between the phantom menace and rhe clone wars like there was with Obi-Wan Kenobi

 

guys what do you think about the actor that would have to play 10 year old Anakin in the 25th Anniversary 2024 Phantom Menace. Bc 5he actor who played him 25 years ago is old now.

 

I think that the person who wrote the Sequel Series should’ve gotten fired. Those last 3 movies actually sucked. The first movie of the Sequel trilogy (TFA) is a basically a knock off of A New Hope, I didn’t mind TLJ because of Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker). But TROS is ****

 

Of course he should have and the rumour was that he was meant to appear at the end of Rise of Skywalker (instead of just the voice). It should have happened there or simply with Luke and Leia at the very end. He surely could have despite all the sand there.

But those in charge didn't care what had happened before (which is ridiculous when you are making films 7-9 of a saga).

That is just the unfortunate truth and why I never watch them or consider them part of the saga. There are just too many inconsistencies to look at them as a serious sequel to the first 6 films. That happens when you deliberately contradict the other films.

Those films were meant to be a part of the "Skywalker saga" (confirmed by Kennedy when they began filming "The Force Awakens) but they end up killing the entire Skywalker family (unless you imagine Han and Leia had other kids like in the EU) in a very pathetic way and there is hardly a mention of Anakin in the films.

On top of that there is no mention of Padmé at all - would it have hurt to mention her once and show her and Anakin's picture in Luke or Leia's possession? It would at least show that they know who she was and this was indeed about the "Skywalker" family.

Anakin should have appeared as a force ghost but the writers just never bothered writing the whole story before they started.

 

The last scene shouldn't have been on Tatooine, the only reverence Luke would have for the planet is that it's where his Aunt and Uncle raised him and most of his friends were from there, but Luke never talks about any of that so it falls flat from a story perspective. Luke hated Tatooine, and Leia spent her one day there as a slave. Anakin spent most of his life there as a slave, one day where he saw his mother die, and another random mission protecting Jabba's ugly baby. People's birth places are not automatically some great sentimental place to go back to.

I conceptually disagree with bringing back Anakin's saber and treating it with so much reverence in the first place, but if there was place to reunite the family for the last scene, it should probably be Naboo, Padme's home planet and the first planet seen in Episode 1. Granted we never actually saw Luke and Leia go there, but still better than Tatooine, because at least one Skywalker had positive memories there.

If Anakin were to have a scene, I would give him a scene with Luke or Leia. I get the appeal in Yoda talking to him... but we already saw that relationship, Anakin and Luke's interactions in the OT was a single fight scene and Luke trying to talk sense into Anakin, and Anakin never interacts with Leia after she finds out she's his daughter.

 

Kylo: show me again the power of the dark-side

Anakin: uhh kid, I made it back to the correct path, turn back to the light. It's not too late

movies:

Kylo: *show me again the power of the dark-side

Anakin: *silence* (lol this kid....i gotta see where this goes....)

 

There was no reason for Anakin to appear to Rey. She doesn't know him, and he doesn't know her.

Anakin knew Ahsoka but its clear in her show he had not appeared to her at all prior to that fever dream thing in TWBW thing. The assumption is often that they will appear as often as possible to the people they know, but its clear that's just not how that works.

 

Indeed. These films are SWINO (Star Wars In Name Only) and hopefully one day, when Disney has finally milked enough money out of the cash cow and decides to sell it on, the Sequel Trilogy will be treated for the expensive fan fiction it is and decanonized, with Return of the Jedi taking it's rightful place as the final installment of LUCAS'S STORY.

 

Lol

 

Totally agreeable

 

Padmé was an important part of the Star Wars universe. Without Padmé, Luke and Leia wouldn’t exist, Rey would’ve stayed as a scavenger than becoming a Jedi, Anakin would’ve been lonely (and maybe depressed), and the entire Star Wars Universe would not exist.
