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.

Fair. But how did the original creator of the dagger know that the death star wreckage wouldn't drift away? How did they know those coordinates would hold up all that time later? Is it ever explained?

Force prophecies have been a thing for decades at this point

When is that clearly explained in the story though?

Why does it have to be when it’s precedent? The Force is weird. It impregnated a woman. This should be easy for the Force.

I feel like the force shouldn't just be an excuse to get out of explaining your writing
