(Below is my own list of those who don’t die in Disney Star Wars)

One of the many, many reasons I’m not a fan of modern Star Wars, (with a few exceptions) is that the only Star Wars characters that died, yet came back, were Yoda, Ben Kenobi, and Anakin, as Force ghosts. There was a set rule, or reason that they could, and that was limited as they didn’t just come back as a character that could go on more adventures, they were there only to advise, and disappear. Because they had died. Because dying was something that was taken seriously by the writers. 

But now, in the post-Lucas Star Wars era, killing a character is a cheap trick to get some drama into the script, because the writers have no idea how to write a good story. Here are all the characters I could think of that have died, yet came back: 

Palpatine – They couldn’t make a better bad guy, and Snoke didn’t work out, so…

Leia – Blown into the vacuum of space… nope! Just floats on back, she’s amazing!

Rey – How romantic. And odd that nobody ever used the Force in this way before.

Chewbacca – They’d never actually kill the Walking Carpet.

IG-11 – Blown up while in a river of molten lava. But he’s coming back somehow.

Poe – He… didn’t make it. Wait, there he is!

Ahsoka – Time travel. They use time travel in Star Wars now.

C-3PO – They’d never really kill Goldenrod.

Fennec Shand – Predictable, but it happened.

Han Solo – Force Ghost. This means that now, any non-Jedi can return as a Force Ghost.

Darth Maul – How? HOW? He was cut in half and fell into a bottomless pit!

Boba Fett – Why not, everybody else comes back.

Two characters in Kenobi take a lightsaber to the body… and they are fine.

Snoke – Wasn’t worth bringing back.

Reva – (Kenobi) Stabbed through with lightsaber (when she was a child), didn’t die. Stabbed through as an adult, didn’t die.

Grand Inquisitor (Kenobi) – Stabbed through with lightsaber, didn’t die.

Sabine (Ahsoka) – Run through with lightsaber, survives and doesn’t miss much.

Add to all of this, the over-use of The Force, of which they use to do anything they want now, including bringing people back from the dead.

I just watched this, and really enjoyed it! I’d recommend if you like thrillers, Tom Clancy, 24, things like that. And watch it without interruption, as it is a ride, and not a casual, laid-back movie!

Three solid books, and on totally different topics!

Most of these movies are just something to watch, and some are Blu-ray replacements for DVDs that I already have, like Cinderella Man and Sicario (which has both of the Sicario movies in one package, nice).

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, these two seasons along with the third season that I found the following week, means I have all of the first six seasons, and this might be all that they ever put to DVD. Not sure.

The Forsaken, I watched last year, and it was actually a really good western, and to top it off, it starred Kiefer Sutherland and his dad. This was a real find, for a buck-fifty, and in brand-new shape.

Surrogates and The Revenant are just movies I liked and didn’t have.

Tears of the Sun, I’ve seen, but don’t remember anything about. But it has Bruce Willis, so I’ll give it another go.

Simone was a movie I saw years ago on cable, and it wasn’t bad. This one was only a dollar, and I watched it right away, still not a bad movie. It is a sort of parody of how people fall for celebrities. And it has Al Pacino starring in it, so that is a good selling point as well. I wouldn’t recommend it though, I am not sure anybody else would like it.

Most of what is left, I bought just to watch, and wasn’t something I would pay much to see, but could still be good. Like I’ve said previously, physical media like this is cheaper and gives more options than digital, which can disappear if you don’t have a connection, or don’t play your bill, or some license runs out.
