In Part 3 of their epic three-part series about the third movie in the third Star Wars trilogy, Fanboy Knight Mike and Darth Hater Jim conclude their discussion and debate about The Rise of Skywalker.
In Part 1 (fanboyandhater.podbean.com/e/star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker-part-1-of-3/), they focused on things Jim found good about the movie, including some cinematography and fan service, as well as how neither one of them see the movie as retconning The Last Jedi.
In Part 2 (fanboyandhater.podbean.com/e/star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker-part-2-of-3/), they focused on things Jim thinks are bad about the movie, including its safe and simple plot, aimless action, excessive exposition, the MacGuffin Scavenger Hunt (Sith Dagger and Sith Wayfinders), and some of its other plot problems.
In this episode, they conclude the series by discussing and debating its fake feels, the Bendemption, Force-d resonance, and its hyperbolic and anti-climatic conclusion, as well as deliver their metaphorical ratings and final thoughts. So, obviously, there will be lots of spoilers!
