“Yes, failure most of all. The greatest teacher, failure is. Luke, we are what they grow beyond. That is the true burden of all masters.”
A perfect examination and deconstruction of what this franchise has been from the beginning like the importance of failure in our success while also presenting new and interesting ideas such as bloodlines not mattering and anyone from anywhere doesn’t matter who you are can become a hero.
This movie does not fucking miss.

Wes Anderson meets Krzysztof Kieślowski
There’s no way Jean‑Pierre Jeunet didn’t take inspiration from Double life of Veronique for this, I’m not complaining since that’s literally my favorite film.

Escape from L.A.

1996

★★★★ Liked Watched

If not for the really bad and dated trans representation then I would consider this better than the first.
