First, let me start by saying there may be spoiler-like material in this article. I don’t think I’ll ruin anything for you, but if you’re like my wife . . . you won’t want to take the chance! Second, I’m a huge Star Wars fan. My favorite characters have always been the Stormtroopers and my favorite Star Wars tech has always been the Tie Fighters. I love the original trilogy, I can tolerate 1 through 3 as necessary evils, and I’ve had mixed feelings about 7 and 8. There were elements and themes I thought were masterful, but there was also a lot of poor story-telling — at least, in my humble opinion. Still, I’m a die-hard fan. My family and I will watch a saga-wide marathon (including Solo and Rogue One) any time a new movie is released, and we were some of the first to see Episode IX the day before it came out. Yet, while I found the climax of the Skywalker saga to be satisfactory, I believe many of the themes in the movie overshadow the overall spectacle. If you plan to enjoy this film with your family, please allow me to share 10 insights over the next two articles that may prove to be valuable conversation starters with your kids.
