Don't get mad at me, hear me out...

I'm not here to convert anyone to be a fan of this Movie or anything else.

How to put this mess of a movie in the Context that was intended? Many Fans aren’t going to like how this gets done.

First you have to put this Mess of a trilogy in context in relation to how they chose to end it. Then you have to go further and put the 9 film “ Skywalker Saga” in context with this mess of a 3rd Trilogy, particularly the Finale.

No one is Going to like this answer. But the Answer lies in Christian Mythology. I am not Proselytizing. I don’t go to church on Sunday and i'd advise anyone to forge their own Spiritual path thru the forest away from well beaten trail of Organized Religion, because charlatans and thieves lie in wait on that trail to rob you and lead you astray.

But there is no escaping Star Wars is steeped in Christian Mythology. I will focus on the original Trilogy, not the prequels, because the original trilogy is the whole ball of wax. Luke = Jesus the son , Vader = Old Testament God the father, Obiwan and/or Yoda = The Holy Ghost. It is Troubling to me ( Raised Catholic) how few Christians understand Jesus as The Prodigal Son. He Rejected his Father’s choices, he rejected his fathers view of the world. And he directly challenges his father to see things his way. And it is His choices that win the day in Return of The Jedi. His Choices that make Darth God the father, of the eye for an eye Old Testament Variety, decide to chuck the emperor down the shaft into the Nuclear Reactor of the Death Star.

Again, I am not Preaching here, just stating- this Mythos is in Star Wars DNA. I am not looking to discuss it’s Merits or all the Bad Juju that has been brought into the world by people grabbing power in the name of Christ. I am not looking to have a Philosophical Discussion on the merit of Christianity or Organized religion. Not Today anyway.

And Let me go on record now, before I reiterate it later – I am also Not Looking to defend the Merit of this Mess of a Movie and mess of a trilogy. It is very poorly executed, at best, being kind.

So Skipping ahead into the meat of the Trilogy starting with The Last Jedi since The Force Awakens was just a launching pad, a rehash, to set the table. Where Do We Find Luke ( AKA Jesus)? We find him self Exiled, full of self doubt, facing down the Agony in The Garden. Where do we Leave him by the end of the Movie? The Jedi Tree has Burned ( representing both the Tree of Knowledge in Eden and the crucifixion for the seeker of knowledge - Luke) ( FYI – The Nordic Son of Light was Crucified on a Tree, Mythologically, long before 36 AD). He had Resurrected, The King Of Kings, all of the force of your Weaponry unable to even scratch him, as an astral projection ( AKA EASTER SUNDAY, even if a hologram is a cheap representation of it) and Then He ASCENDED (disappeared into the ether and slipped the mortal coil as the Theme Music Swelled).

So how the hell does this lead us to a Palpatine restoring Balance To The Force, at the End of “The Skywalker Saga” in the Penultimate episode chapter 3rd of the 3rd Trilogy. Bad Storytelling and Poor Form? YES, Absolutely! But also, going back to Darth God, Remember him? ( Pitiful Story Telling!) The God Of The Old Testament. The OLD TESTAMENT- Original Sin Baby! Rey’s Guilty of it By Birth, She’s a Palpatine! But She won by accepting Luke Skywalker as her personal savior.

I'll avoid going into the implications of this theological Tire Fire of pitiful storytelling and I'd recommend you do the same or May Lando have Mercy On your Soul!
