Yesterday, on what would have been Carrie Fisher’s 63rd birthday, Disney unveiled the final trailer for her final film as Leia Organa, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Helmed by J.J. Abrams, the much-anticipated sequel had Star Wars fans rejoicing at the return of Fisher alongside Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, and Oscar Isaac. Then there were tears.
Here’s a look at how Twitter reacted to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, starting with a wish for Rey.
I shall need Rey to be happy forever and ever and ever and ever and ever. NO MORE TEARS and heartbreak! #TheRiseOfSkywalker pic.twitter.com/ejJgln7kWE

Presumably they put that tiny shot of Rose in #TheRiseOfSkywalker trailer to remind certain 'fans' of their boycott commitments…

With #TheRiseOfSkywalker trending and yhe movie coming soon, I feel the need to ask something: What was the point of Rose again?
