The Star Wars Sequel Trilogy finally gave us true Star Wars. It elevated the lacklustre Star Wars saga from George Lucas' generic and forgettable tripe to something brilliant and epic, defining a whole genre.

The Force Awakens broke new ground in cinema, while Rian Johnson's The Last Jedi finally gave us characters we could relate to. Rey is much more believable and relatable than Luke Skywalker, while in Rose Tico we at long last had a diverse actor given an essential role in a Star Wars film.

The Rise of Skywalker then wrapped it all up in a modern epic, JJ Abrams excelling himself in giving us a satisfying end for the stories of Rey, Kylo Ren, Emperor Palpatine, Snoke, and Babu Frik.

We should thank Disney for finally letting Star Wars hit its potential. The sequel trilogy is no only brilliant in its own right, it is by far the best Star Wars has to offer.
