What does everyone think of the title? And what do you think it means exactly? I guess the obvious meaning would be that Luke returns somehow, but I'm personally not buying that. I also saw someone tweet that they think it confirms Rey is a Skywalker (not necessarily Luke's daughter), so who knows?! I'd be interested to hear other people's interpretations. :)

Palpatine revealed as Anakin's father. Palpatine rises. Thus, The Rise of Skywalker. :D
 
Thought the panel was a bit crap tbh, think the title and the trailer were also a bit crap. I still need a lot of convincing (damn you Rian Johnson)

Im excited by what i saw in the trailer but I'm wasnt a fan of the cackle at the end. I'd would rather not see Palpatine return, force ghost or otherwise as it would cheapen his death scene in ROTJ.
The title I'm not bothered by, I think they might reveal Rey to have Skywalker blood but I dont get a sense of consistency with how her story has been told so far
