Rating: 8/10 (21 December 2019)

Long have I thought that this whole saga was Palpatines story, that he was the main player, the protagonist and the main character the story both follows and revolves around and this film finally nails it...
The Skywalkers to begin with are all Palpatines as he creates annakin thus hes directly responsible for the entire lineage...they all trained as Jedis and they were all awful at it...annakin became vader, luke became a recluse after failing to restore a jedi order and pushing Ben to become yet another sith apprentice infact the skywalkers were failures both as Jedi's but also as Siths because they never became masters but halfassed apprentices who gave up on the dark side like they gave up on the light beforehand...
Every single thing that the Emperor wanted he achieved... a confluence of the force check, the destruction of the Jedi order check, an empire under his control check, and finally his descendant to destroy him in order to pass on check...
and its his direct descendant rey who by everything shown about her and her powers with little or no training is the most powerful light side force user remaining and she fulfills the emperors wishes at the end even if he had that last minute 'oh I can suck you dry and make myself whole and forget all about my plan' in the last few minutes he still achieved what his goal was originally...all the skywalkers are dead, the Jedi order is destroyed and his granddaughter and heir to all his power is now the most powerful force user in the galaxy bar none and who is not a Jedi by virtue of the powers she can access.... the emperors story as told through the eyes of a bit player family who were an offshoot of him but in the end had nothing to do with his final destruction
