So you clearly missed the part where its revealed that Rey is Palpatine’s granddaughter. Hence, Rey Palpatine. Hence, Palpatine’s bloodline is the last one standing and the Skywalkers are gone. Palpatine literally tells Rey to kill him and he’ll live on in her...and she kills him. I’m not making any of this up. It literally was in the movie. How could you miss that? |
Technically he killed himself because Rey’s light saber cross move just reflected his lightning back at him. So no. |
Rey being Palpatine doesn't mean Palpatine won because SHE KILLED HIM. Killing him with the force of the Jedi means he really died. Did you miss that part? Clearly you did. He didn't live on in her -- his plan FINALLY failed and he died. It was all the Siths versus all the Jedis and he was done. Pay better attention next time. |
You don’t get how genetics works. Rey is a Palpatine. She’s his granddaughter. Therefore, Rey Palpatine won. I didn’t say the Emperor/Palpatine himself lived. I simply said Rey Palpatine won. What don’t you understand about this? |
Seriously, it’s like people are too dumb to notice the details in their face. PP didn’t say Emperor Palpatine won. But ultimately his granddaughter won and there are no longe any skywalkers left. She told her that old lady at the end of the movie her name was Rey Skywalker as a tribute, but ultimately, she’s still a Palpatine. |
DP. Rey IS a Palpatine. Who’s the one not paying attention? Seems like it’s you. No one said that the Emperor won, Rey, who is his granddaughter, won. |
|
You guys are so obtuse.
Yes, she's a Palpatine. No Palpatine isn't living inside her. No he didn't win. |
Literally someone in this thread that you're quoting said "Palpatine ultimately wins." |
Rey Palpatine does win, though... |
|
"Rey Palpatine does win, though..."
Oh. My. God. Yes, she's TECHNICALLY Rey Palpatine, but given that she: 1. Kills Palpatine. 2. Becomes a Jedi, not a Sith She's really only nominally a Palpatine. Stop being so DAMN obtuse. |
Correct, so Rey Palpatine wins. Again, nobody ever said Emperor Palpatine won in these last two pages. She clearly kills her grandpa. However, Rey isn’t a Skywalker and adapts the name because Like and Leia give her the blessing because of what Luke says, your blood doesn’t determine who you are. But ultimately, Rey is still a Palpatine. You even said it yourself. Calm down Karen. Don’t know why you’re getting so worked up over a basic statement. |
It’s not being obtuse, it literally is the entire damn point of the movie. She discovers she has a horrible bloodline and chooses to be good instead of following her granddad down a path of evil. She rejects being Empress and kills her grandpa and chooses to align with Luke Skywalker, becoming a light side/Jedi Palpatine. |
So PALPATINE DOESN'T WIN. She says she's Rey Skywalker. I don't care if she's technically a Palpatine; the ENTIRE point is that some things are stronger than blood. That's literally something Luke said to her. |
You can't read. Someone said "Palpatine won." Rey is a Palpatine in name only -- and not even that; she calls herself Rey Skywalker. To continue to harp on her technical bloodline is frankly just stupid. |
Nobody ever said “Palpatine“ wins. He doesn’t, you’re the only one who keeps implying that. But she’s still Palpatine’s granddaughter and that doesn’t just change the fact that she is. Shes choosing to not be a evil Palpatine and choosing to look up to her mentors, the Skywalkers, for good. She is still Palpatine’s granddaughter. Nothing in that regard changes. She’s still a Palpatine. |
