I cannot stress enough how ridiculous it is that the marketing department for RISE OF SKYWALKER manipulated audiences into believing we would witness a relationship of equals, showing clips of Kylo/Ben and Rey at one with each other, only for Palpatine to lightning-strike Ben down a pit where he broke all his bones to the point of near-death and then he has to climb out of a pit only to face his actual death by (ironically) reviving Rey. And people still have the nerve to say that he was a selfish/cruel character
JJ Abrams and Chris Terrio will forever be in my bad books for this.
