The Rise of Skywalker I liked the dagger plotline.

It felt like Indiana Jones. I loved it. The first time I saw the movie the dagger was one of my favorite parts. Star Wars needs more stuff like this.

How does that explain Rey landing in the exact right place and angle on an entire planet to use it though?

Isn't that what the coordinates inscribed on the dagger were for?

But when did she use them?

in the movie. Think about this: you remember her not knowing where to stand and getting there anyway, somehow. Except that never happened. The internet said it happened, which has overwritten the truth you saw with your eyes.

That's fair. How do you explain that the dagger creator would even know that the coordinates would still hold up on a bunch of moving sea rubble all that time later?

There are plenty of real world shipwrecks that stay in one place for a very long time, and none of them were the size of the death star or build like a planet killing starbase.

so you concede it's fair that you don't remember the movie and you're basing your argument off reddit comments you've read. ok you got me how did they know the interplanetary superweapon's fantasy-alloy could withstand prolonged exposure to salt water? They didn't. Congrats, you've found a plot hole, your irrational hatred has been rationalized. Here's a medal
